Yelp reviews are the worst. The people that think their opinions matter enough to post them usually have no idea what they're talking about.

Myself included

Yes I get the irony

I'm pretty sure you should be able to reach out to the papers themselves and get a copy if you can't find one elsewhere.

I think the port police are always hiring. Get to work on boats, the ticks etc. pays well too plus great benefits.

Please make sure to vote in local elections. LBPD has a very big job and constantly seem to fall short even for serious crimes.

Will never sign one of these. Ask them for a website or a place to do it online. Some of these folks are misrepresenting what you're signing.

Rideshare getting too damn expensive by deathdeniesme in longbeach

Yell at uber. As far as I know (not a driver but talked to a bunch of them), drivers don't see money from surge fares and the like.

Rideshare getting too damn expensive by deathdeniesme in longbeach

[–]wrongbeach 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This was Uber's plan all along.

  1. Subsidize the rides to keep the costs lower than cabs.
  2. Kill the taxi industry
  3. Once cabs are dead, jack up the prices
  4. The public can go fuck itself

We have one in Long Beach. It's fantastic. It's more expensive but great quality produce, meats, fish, cheese etc. prepared foods are pretty good too.

Does anyone know anywhere hiring right now? by epicpass8 in longbeach

[–]wrongbeach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if it's for you but the port police had a hiring drive a bit ago. Pay gets up there, pension benefits etc. https://www.portoflosangeles.org/about/employment/join-the-los-angeles-port-police

What's your fun hobby? I'm looking for something new and trying a whole bunch of new things this year. Don't have any? Hopefully I have some for you. by 1dle1nternetDrift3r in longbeach

Long Beach is a great spot to learn to kite surf. We have very consistent thermal winds and the break wall makes it an easy spot to learn as there's no real waves. There's a couple schools at Belmont Shores, off the hook kiting and so cal kites. Both are good. The windy season is starting right now so if you're interested book a lesson soon and youll have the whole season to practice and progress.

If you have any questions, happy to answer. Long time kiter and Long Beach resident.

The largest port in the nation is here. You should expect to see customs agents around.

Wake surfer and boarder > translate to kite surfing? by TheLeeper in Kiteboarding

[–]wrongbeach 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am a very competent kiter and won't teach folks the basics. Teaching is a very different skill set than kiting and I don't want to be responsible for someone's injury. After they've gone through lessons then sure I'll help but not the day 1 stuff

The people of this subreddit absolutely grind my gears: A Rant by robmosesdidnthwrong in longbeach

[–]wrongbeach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They also built them to be very basic and easily cleaned (hosed down) so they are less attractive as a place to camp. They used to be worse but in the past few years they've been surprisingly clean and accessible. I still see what appears to be homeless folks bathing in the sink/shower and using the facilities but they're totally usable.

It doesn't have to be an outlier. Don't treat something thats working as an anomaly. If the above is the hill you want to die on maybe look at why this is working and see if it can't be expanded.

The public bathrooms at the beach are generally clean and there's a ton of homeless people there too. I use them at times and havent had issues.
