Ubering around in the snow?

I see the forecast is snowy coming up and figured it might be better to have a local driving than to drive an unfamiliar rental car in an unfamiliar place in the snow.

At the same time, Uber keeps telling me I can't pre-book an Uber from the airport to my hotel - not sure what's up with that.

How is Uber out in South Bend? I assumed it's just there like in many other places but now I'm worried I'm going to end up stranded without a ride if I don't get a rental car.

Red run local businesses

Please let us know who the trumpy business owners are so I don’t frequent their business. Left a place I loved because I didn’t feel safe there anymore. I don’t want to spend my money on local hatred.

Housing?

I moved back to the area to help with an illness in the family. Found a job... Does anyone have an idea where to look for for cheap lodging. I'm kinda sick of being employed and homeless.

Natural spring water

Anywhere close that has naturally clean spring water to collect?

Heard about the spring house at potato creek, is the water there drinkable?

Restaurant Week - Share your experiences, please

I saw someone did this last year. Waited...but... nothing

Please share your experiences this year. Place? Thoughts on the food, drink, venue and service. Anything you want.

Do you feel like it was a good deal?

We did Roselily for the first time. Food and service were excellent, although we thought at times the savory was a bit salty. Just us? Definitely want to try Bishop and Baes and how can I pass up the taco deal at Cinco? We didn't even know The Hideaway had food.

Really hope to see some contributions!!!

Here is the flip book with all the restaurants, cost and menu : https://eatdrinkdtsb.com/WRW25/mobile/index.html

Should have included that originally. Lasts until February 9

Boiler issues.

Does anyone have a suggestion for a boiler tech. And I mean an expert. We have now used 3 different company's. Number one inept company is great lakes. Will NEVER use, or recommend. Next was cavalier. They are a joke. Next was a local guy. Had so much hope. Didn't work. We are freezing, WITH a sorta working boiler.

HRT in South Bend

I hate to ask a question I know has been asked before, but I'm a previous patient of mosaic and hadn't seen them in a while, and now mosaic is closed. In the previous posts I looked up, someone said they were getting hormones though planned parenthood, but when trying to make an appointment online the website made it seem like the South bend location doesn't offer that service. It points me towards going 50 miles away in basically any direction, but at that point I'll just make a day trip to Chicago and go to Howard Brown. If anyone has any advice feel free to post it here for posterity or PM me. thanks 💞

Suggestions on where to go/what to get for dental implants

I'm looking into getting something like all on 4 or all on 7 so like bridge full mouth dental implants. Like permanent dentures is what it feels like to me lol. But I want to know where people have gone, experiences, costs and how everything came out! I really don't have the money for this kind of thing so it's important to shop around and get the best price and procedure. I definitely feel like I'm stumbling in the dark though when trying to find info about places, prices, and procedures. I have no back teeth really I had them pulled and I have 1 bad front-ish tooth now and it really truly bothers me badly. It's not that bad but it's upsetting. bad teeth run in my family. My mom got dentures at like 25/26 so when tax money comes I want to finally do this.

Any manufacturing jobs hiring?

Does anybody know of any good places hiring? I’ve been at Laidig Systems for 13 yrs, I’ve worked my butt off never late to work and always do what I’m told. Everyday I’m harassed and belittled and I’m fed up with it. I work as a machine builder but have experience in forklift driver, shipping receiving, as well as some machining. If you know anywhere hiring please let me know. Thanks.

Is Uber Driving Safe?

Im new to the area, and I need some money to cover my expenses while I wait for my first paycheck.

So I was wondering if the area is safe to do uber? I've only ever done doordash before, but I assume uber would pay more, so is it safe enough to try that? Or should I stick with something else?

Oyster Bar

Just got back from the Oyster Bar after a hell of a performance, and I'm smart enough to not post anything creative on Reddit, as I just consumed 11 martinis and a variety of whiskey shots that I lost all count of. Needless to say, I had a hell of a night.
