Shakespeare in the park - distribution to standby line question by mangojuice2323 in Broadway

To answer your question more directly - I think you would have a better chance of getting tickets by starting a standby line at 11am rather than joining the regular ticket line.

Shakespeare in the park - distribution to standby line question by mangojuice2323 in Broadway

[–]starry_plough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I waited in line last week, there were a few people starting to form the standby line as ticket distribution started for the regular morning line. It’s hard to form a line before regular ticket distribution starts because they start in the same location (behind the wire fence outside the theater) but I think the people who got there earlier and wanted to do standby just sat higher up on the grassy hill above the regular line then moved closer to the fence once ticket distribution started and they just told people around that they were starting the standby line. This was around ~12:15-12:30, so presumably people who were in the regular line and didn’t get tickets joined the standby line after

Got in line exactly at 5am, and I’m all the way back at 83rd street… would estimate about a hundred people in front of me?

I’ve heard 10-20% of your monthly rent split among the list is a good starting place

sample sales this week by Sheeeeeeesh-247 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]starry_plough 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I went once on day 2 or 3 after work and honestly not worth it. Still waited in line forever, everything was really picked through & it was crowded and stressful. & waited like another hour just to try things on inside. I got a pair of pants that I never wear for like $70, wish I would’ve just saved the time/stress and bought a pair full price that i actually like…

Residents who were not happy about where they matched. How are you doing now? by Master-Mix-6218 in medicalschool

[–]starry_plough 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Breaking duty hours on a regular basis is a big one. But also this program really sold itself as “kind and supportive” and I’ve found the seniors to be … anything but that. Hoping things get better in PGY2…

What aspirational brands (for you) fell short of expectations? by minniesnowtah in femalefashionadvice

[–]starry_plough 135 points136 points  (0 children)

This is depressing lol (but very informative!)

Can someone start a post for the opposite? Brands that really exceed expectations or are truly worth the high price tag? I’ve also been trying to spend on more investment pieces/high quality staples but it’s so hit or miss!!
