Norfolk (dont) CARES

Apparently Norfolk doesn't give a crap about the shitty condition of the streets. Street I'm on has several sinkholes forming underneath the surface, one of which opened up last year. Contacted Norfolk CARES, they send someone who spray painted around the opening, threw a couple barrels around the area, then left. It's been over a year, the road in one spot is 5" lower than everywhere else, the paint has worn off all but a faded memory, and nothing has been done.

Same thing with the giant wet spot that forms down the street. Been two years since it's been marked, and the person who lives there has reported it as well. City came out, marked it, then did nothing. They were telling me the other day that the spot now stays wet 24/7, even if there has been no rain. And you can clearly see the sediment coming up through the cracks. They had someone come out, were told by the worker, "the city has bigger projects", then left.

How about we stop paying taxes to the city until the shit gets fixed. Wonder how fast it'll get fixed when Kenny Alexander can't pull funds out of the cookie jar.

WTF HRSD

Anyone at HRSD care to explain how I have a bill for $300 for two people?

And no I haven't missed a payment on the account. Made my payment last month on the 10th, for a zero balance, then logged in after having to recreate my account since HRSD changed the portal. Log in and find that my bill is $300 for 9 CCF of usage for two people. I would have understood if I was filling a swimming pool, but I don't have one and it's the middle of the fucking winter. My bill at most for the past year has been $130, which was during the summer watering plants. There is no water leaking, I have watched my meter over a hour period while nothing was being used, meter didn't move at all.

Also, I am having a really hard time understanding how some of the charges, ex. trash collection, constantly change price. One bill is $21.45, another is $20.56, another $29.99. Same thing with storm water. How is it that when we've had little to no rain, storm water treatment charges are higher then when we've gotten a good number of rainy days?

It seriously feels like HRSD is out here scamming the city and it's residents.

A lot of jobs I see online for welding usually make less than I already do now In my current position bartending . I make around 100k a year, more if it’s a good year . I want to change careers because I want to think long term I can’t really bartend for ever I’m already 27 . I can still pick up good weekend shifts to get me by if I start off taking a pay cut . Does anyone have some knowledge they can give me being in a trade for a long time ?

Moving to Norfolk for 2 months, is it safe?

Hello, I'm a south asian woman, in my early 30s, I'll be moving in Norfolk for a few months. This is my first time going to US, is there things I should avoid doing? How safe is norfolk for a single woman? Can I hang out in restaurants and pubs alone without having any trouble? Also are the locals friendly or stanoffish towards South Asians? P.S.- I'm an extrovert and a friendly person, I generally don't have any problem making friends in my country. Though I'll admit, I make women friend faster. I tend to put my foot on my mouth or get super awkward while talking to a guy for the first time. I'm only asking about the safety because it is a very small town compared to where I live now and I've never lived in a place like that. People tend to be more inclusive in small towns. So I'm a bit nervous about having any person to talk to or make any friends.

Does anyone know of derm or aestheticians who offer miradry in the 50-mile radius?

Side note: the offices I have called are TERRIBLE on the phone/calling back etc. Is anyone having that problem lately with other practices?

Looking for bamboo!

I’m looking for some cut bamboo to use for a project, preferably longer than 6’ tall, up to 16’ or so. Any ideas where I can cut some down (other than the pagoda) or who is cutting some down and will let me take a bunch? I’m looking for probably 30-50 stalks.
