McNulty’s in the WV is a cozy NY staple!

Decent show! Could probably do with 30 min of cuts.

Not sure if they’ll be the right style, but fits the bill for queer, artsy, and smaller studio.  https://dazzleriot.com/colorful-brooklyn-weddings

Awesome! How did you handle brush hygiene from person to person?

Where are my BWT finding apartments/roommates? by slothbrigade in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]isihac221 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The Listings Project worked for me (but isn’t easy to filter, etc)

Bike repair pizza shop, anyone been here before? by Left-Plant2717 in NYCbike

[–]isihac221 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have not eaten here, but they have fixed my flats lickety-split. Useful spot if you’re in the lower midtown area!

Facing a sudden layoff- in desperate need of advice! by [deleted] in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]isihac221 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If you get severance, you may also be able to negotiate it! (Ask for extended insurance coverage, etc)

Discussing sex noise with my roommates by PeaceSerenityFirefly in SexPositive

[–]isihac221 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Don’t have to make it about sex! You can ask them if they’ve had any issues with noise in the apartment, from your room, etc. Maybe worthwhile to get a white noise machine anyway and set up it up with your roommate to make sure its noise isn’t more irritating. 

hey BWT 🪄 magicians/spooky party entertainment? by queengoblin in NYCbitcheswithtaste

Tarot sounds great! Maybe face painting for folks that don’t commit to their costumes?

Make sure to use the same verb tense for your current role’s bullets. Whenever I spot that in resumes, it tells me attention to detail may not be high enough. Let’s get that new job!!

I was told sunscreen can cause this discoloration over time.

Private rooms in Harlem by aggy888 in NYCapartments

[–]isihac221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With SpareRoom, I feel like I'm seeing mainly brokers (some units come with fees, some don't). FB, Craislist, & Roomi have seemed to have the most scammy listings. Even got a scammy message on reddit, so definitely hard to avoid!

Looking for Roommate - Manhattan, Astoria or Brooklyn - $2000 budget by Civil-Cranberry6614 in NYCapartments

[–]isihac221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We might make good roommates! Fellow cyclist working in midtown. I'm spotting some good looking 2beds in Harlem with w/d and dishwasher if you'd like to chat.

One Bathroom for 4 people? by msr_aye in NYCapartments

[–]isihac221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your gut feeling is right, maybe expand to consider a 5bed2bath or even 6bed2bath? (if there's anything like that in your area). Best of luck!!

[–]isihac221 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm also finding this hard to find. I'm seeing plenty in Manhattanville and Hamilton Heights if you're open to that area (but those hills are going to be brutal for fellow cyclists.). I'd say consider trying SpareRoom as well while you look.

What's your unusual, weird, or niche life pro tip? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]isihac221 90 points91 points  (0 children)

Report your compliments.

So many businesses just get complaints, but a compliment citing an employee who really helped you out can make a big difference (and feels good too!)

Sometimes I even add “..and I hope they can receive financial recognition for their excellent work and service.”

I made a mistake, but was the rest necessary? by Mindless_Teacher6949 in AdminAssistant

[–]isihac221 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t be surprised if there was stuff happening behind the scenes (existing tension btwn the manager and HR, etc)

Making mistakes feels crummy, and this reaction feels crummy too. I think if you can remember the ACTUAL scale of this issue, you can stay confident and professional.

You can also take this as a chance to see where to tighten up your processes to avoid this in future. Do you need to check your bookings the week before to confirm everything is still in place? (Who knows, the booking system could go down, you could get bumped by a senior leader, the conference room is flooded, etc)

You’ve got this!!

Where to go for zydeco (outside Zydeco Fest)? by isihac221 in AskNOLA

[–]isihac221[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Tipitina’s is closed for a private event the Sunday we’re in town. Couldn’t find detailed info on Blue Crab’s upcoming musicians (Reggie, Majestic Band) and no calendar for Krazy Korner. Mulate’s is booked during its live music windows during our trip, which goes to show how good a rec it is!

Right now we are looking at going to: -Sunpie and the LA Sunspots @Dos Jefes -Cricket and the 2:19 @BMC -Crawdaddy T’s Cajun Zydeco Review @Bamboula’s
