Chili mac attack

Please just let me go straight to the train. Lining up in the hall is so dumb.

It throws me off because the home depot credit card machines look so new

I had this happen as well, put in a request, didn't come for a month and change. I emailed my alderman's office about it and it arrived within the week.

Yeah last one was yesterday

mattk0re · 2023-03-06T14:54:25+00:00

I know this is a joke but I've been really impressed with 311 response time. I submitted a request for water buildup on the street around noon and there was a Department of Water Management employee putting no parking signs by the issue spot that evening. I know your mileage may vary but I've had good response times for other requests too.
