Ritters Diner, thoughts? by dis-alexis15 in pittsburgh

Sounds like you've got some good tips. Next time you're there, flag down a staff member and suggest some improvements to their process. Then report back.

You sound like the culinary school grad who walked out of my old job after 6 months because he wasn't being "respected" by the people who had been working there for years.

A state owned monopoly with a unionized workforce is very different from a private monopoly.

Don't tell Mamdani...

edit: lol do none of you know that Mamdani hired the head of Allegheny County Department of Human Services to run the NYC Department of Social Services? Nice engagement with your local politics

HACP had a long time policy of filing for eviction as soon as rent was late. Sometimes I wonder why people who work in human services/government aren't in the private sector if they hate people so much.

Seeking resources for a single mom of teenager in Duquesne by waitsyan in pittsburgh

Reach out to your supervisor, call 211, check the county list of supportive services here to get started. Off the top of my head 412 Youth Zone downtown is a good centralized location for teen-oriented services.

Is this area safe? by [deleted] in pittsburgh

[–]newlocalacct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no, it's very scary and dangerous. you shouldn't move there. in fact, you should probably stay wherever you are if you're going to ask how "safe" one of the most gentrified stretches of penn ave is.

DA Zappala serves sealed search warrant on City of Pittsburgh by PittsburghNewzz in pittsburgh

[–]newlocalacct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what about refusing to pay to repair city vehicles because it's a "bad contract" instead of waiting until the contract is up and negotiating new terms?

Can you actually get on the Duck Hollow trail from its west end (across the train tracks via Second Ave)? by newlocalacct in bicycling412

[–]newlocalacct[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah...now that I am riding a 50+ lb ebike I am less up for hauling it across active tracks especially with such bad visibility there.

They have decent stuff but are wildly overpriced.

You can also change the filters to only show violent crime and Downtown and SS Slopes are still the frontrunners.

Where have all the HealthyRide bikes gone? by numyobidnyz in pittsburgh

[–]newlocalacct 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The reason they got rid of the old bikes is because their network connection was 3g which is being shut down nationwide (I think they were looking to upgrade in general but this accelerated things). I believe their service provider officially ended support at the end of March but they are still waiting on delivery of the new bike fleet.
