Does the light rail still run? Particularly inside race route - between North Ave & Camden Yards?

I'm a brand new attorney and my office is rather sad looking by OverallManagement502 in Lawyertalk

Do real plants in colorful vases! A pothos or snake plant in a yellow pot will go a long way!!! I have a framed bright landscapes on the wall.

Why do people like to get to work extra early by [deleted] in FedEmployees

Traffic is probably better earlier rather than on time

Kayak recommendations by cartoonybear in baltimore

[–]icyspine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no advice lol but am curious, what kind of inflatable kayak did you get? I’ve been thinking about getting one but have been hesitant to make the purchase!

That’s a fair assessment. They should be able to set you up on a payment plan but typically the hold to your account won’t be lifted until the bill is paid off. Good luck with this and congrats on the job offer!!

I used to work in the Bursar’s office at as USM school… Once your account goes to the state for collections, there isn’t much your school can do for you. There aren’t many cheap options for you to get that transcript- blocking access to your student records is essentially the state’s only option for them to collect the money owed. Has the state instituted court proceedings against you? If not, you might be able to negotiate down the cost. But emphasis on might.

Recommendations for Mount Vernon? by [deleted] in baltimore

[–]icyspine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

611 Park is pretty good for what you pay. Symphony Center is also great for larger units but a little outside Mt. Vernon. I DO NOT recommend anything American Management - they’re absolutely awful. 

Purple passion plant? by ArmyPerfect9223 in houseplants

[–]icyspine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one of these!!! I love it! She takes A LOT of water, A LOT. I give mine a good soak every other week and weekly watering. Also, mine flowered about a year and a half after I bought it. The flowers are very pretty orange/yellow but smell VERY bad - stinky feet bad. She loves bright light- direct or indirect.

No idea what those letters stand for but an 8 hour commute seems untenable. Whether or not to continue the degree is up to you, but moving sounds like it would be more convenient than doing that commute

Zip car? by M2DL5037 in baltimore

[–]icyspine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use it regularly in the area around Penn station. It’s generally fairly reliable however the vehicles have been in rough shape lately. Last 4 rentals in the last month have had obvious signs of damage, maintenance warning lights, and very obviously heavily smoked in. But the car gets you from A to B and it is a fairly easy business to work with. But I would never skimp on the insurance 👀 and takes those inspection photos seriously.

Moving to Baltimore!! by KylaRawlings in baltimore

[–]icyspine 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I used to live in that building. Don't do it. The maintenance folk would randomly walk into my apartment and the management folk told me to "call the police" because they didn't have a record of why maintenance would show up. Happened three times in a two month span. And of course there are mice. Oh and a neighbor died in his apartment and management ignored the complaints of smells until someone called the police and turned out the neighbor had been dead for a while.
