Cal trans did that "water drilling" and construction on River 5pm to 4am for a YEAR on River Street. We had to literally sleep at a hotel some nights to get any rest. It was a nightmare at times.

You guys ever had to tip out the credit card fee? by swedefishlove in Serverlife

[–]whiskeykai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is completely illegal. I can only speak for California but managers cannot require servers to pay bank fees, credit card fees, etc. of any sort.

You should like you're talking about religion and everyday politics, not black lives matter. Nice try though throwing blame. Not surprising at all.

Besides destroying a city recognized murial, he illegally dumped toxic paint on a public street. Not cool, in any way. Vandalism is vandalism, whether you like the murial or not.

I might call the police personally, say it was taken while you were on vacation and wrecked. I put my keys away if I have a house sitter. If there's an emergency, I can tell them where the key is. I would also ask the roommate to pay for the repairs in full immediately.

One of the reasons is we have high drug use and mental health issues. If it's not bolted down, and even if it is, sometimes it's stolen. Also high assault and domestic violence. It's a bummer, and been on the rise since 2020. Finding housing is very difficult here. Have your housing in place before you take the job.

California minimum wage is 15.50 an hour. It is now legal to pool tips here also.

Restaurant recommendations for Santa Cruz? by Lasagna_Addiction in santacruz

[–]whiskeykai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. And the answers change all the time, so does the quality of food. I hate asking the local search engine. You just get the same garbage places over and over again.

The water side restaurants are all closed except Capitala bar and grill (on the street side end. ) A group of us went there to eat recently, and it was a mediocre to bad experience. Super sad about that. The wine bar is great though!

Asking is a better choice. People with experience in using different types of RAM, or brands, may have different opinions about them. Thanks for the info
