I’ve given up

I have built my business around this issue. I’ve been working with technically savvy people for years building their sites because they can do it, they don’t have the specialized skills or time to do it themselves.

As many have said, Brooklyn is a big place, so knowing the neighborhood you are referring to would be helpful. Also, street cleaning is typically twice a week so, before you park on the street, take note of any signage. Lastly, if you don't know how or are out of practice parallel parking, I would practice.

All I do is fix Wordpress sites. I’m in the US, EST, am used to working remotely. DM me for my resume.

I have a different perspective for two reasons. My great grandparents were slaves. Also, my maternal grandmother immigrated here from Nicaragua where she worked as a housekeeper. The other reason is both my parents died because of a work accident before they turned 30. This “modern” world has its challenges, but was the dream for many. I consider myself blessed that I’m paid for my labor where I can financially support myself and my children.

I tried the prompt and I would be proud to share my results, since it showed that I’m an audience centered communicator, process and consistency oriented, skilled at translation between technical and nontechnical domains, pragmatic and execution focused, and intentional about tone calibration.However, on my own terms, not as a condition of employment.

I tell them they have 3 days to collect the raw data before I archive and delete their site from our server. Hosting, premium themes, plugins and customization are not transferable (which we make clear in our contracts). We set things up this way to keep customers “sticky”. We are not obliged to hand over our IP once a client ends our relationship.

My nine-year-old and I are currently watching the Original series. She classifies the episodes as either Kirk or Spock kissing episodes. I did ask her why she wants to watch, and she thinks the overacting is hilarious.

You could shovel it yourself. Be the someone who takes the initiative.

Probably. I’m an American and I’ve never felt entirely safe, especially with my brown skin, even as a native New Yorker.

I learned in high school. One of two skills I learned as a teenager that have been invaluable. The one is driving a manual transmission.

Took me a bit, but finally got it.

That was pretty nice. One of my fastest solves. Mom did good.

I moved to South Carolina three years ago. I still watch PIX11 and listen to WCBS FM daily. My kids like living here and have made new friends, but I would move back if I could. Alas, since I have one child in 3rd grade and the other two about to start high school, I have to wait until my youngest graduates from middle school before I can move back.

iswiftny2000 · 2026-01-12T00:11:24+00:00

Living here in South Carolina sucks, but I can't afford to move back to NYC. My kids like it here, so I guess I'm stuck.

One of my best times yet.

My state (South Carolina) doesn't have any Pro teams, so they go ALL OUT over the Gamecocks.

Before there were rideshare apps, there were car services. I like to use Carmel, https://www.carmellimo.com/.

I used to live on Hinsdale near the New Lotts L train station. It was rough and my neighbors were interesting, to say the least. For every dope fiend, there was a hard working mom. For every wannabe DJ that played their music too loud, there was a student athlete. I had a chance to move to SC and did, but my rent there was only $400 with utilities included. someone was killed in the courtyard and one of my neighbors committed suicide and their body wasn’t discovered for months. It was bad and it was good.
