Besides a supervisor who would I report unsafe hazardous things. Electric exposed, staff bathrooms with no ventilation"all bathrooms need ventilation, plumbing leaking all the time in most bathrooms. Toilets not being flushed in student bathrooms because they are manual and won't install automatic flushers. List goes on
I see a lot of good brunch recommendations, but not many places with live music.
Any suggestions?
Thought I had enough candies, based on last year's visitations. Thought wrong. Didn't figure the beautiful and warm weather would mean more kids trick or treating. Have to head to the grocery store now for a quick restock.
I have some nicer clothes that I’d like to bring to a consignment store. Would love some recommendations on your favorites in the area!
Anyone know of a good yet reasonable price place to go get a car tinted?
In my family, WE DO HALLOWEEN. My mom is a party entertainer, and somehow is not working tonight for maybe the first time ever, and wants to celebrate priperly for once.
She often goes to the NYC village parade, but is scared for her safety this year. I'd have her tag along with me and my man on our plans, but we've already got (expensive) tickets to a supposedly-intense haunt. I know a lot of restaurants do halloween parties, but it seems they were all on saturday. And her husband is great but a curmudgeonly enemy of joy, so she's flying solo wherever she ends up.
How about it, Reddit? Are there any events tonight suitable for a fashionable, hip, costumed-to-the-nines, 71-year old crone with a hollow leg for Chivas Regal?
Hi! I'm looking for recommendations for a music shop that also does cleaning and repairs of woodwind instruments. Specifically for my flute, it needs an intense cleaning as it's been exposed to the air for too long and now is discolored (I know, I know, I shouldn't have let this happen.) it also needs new pads.
I used to go to Sam Ash on Rt 4 in paramus. I'm looking for somewhere closer to Montvale/Woodcliff Lakes if possible. Thanks everyone!
For the easily disoriented, like me, some advice if you lose your parking ticket when on jury duty: when you enter the garage on the ground level, on your right will be a few gray doors. The last one is an office for security. Knock on it, someone will answer. Show your juror sticker, tell them you lost your parking ticket, and the guard will tell you to get your car while he walks over to the gate and will let you out of the garage.
The guards on duty are very well trained and extremely polite. Jury duty is always a bother, but they make it far less of an ordeal.
Both my husband and I received our sample ballots this year but not the actual mail-in ballots. I'm not sure if I've done something wrong or, if not, if there is a way to report missing ballots.
I went onto the "track my ballot" site but it doesn't show anything under mail-in ballot.
We went in person to vote a few days ago but this is still bugging me.
Edit: Yes, we both applied ages ago for mail-in ballots

Anyone know of a good liquor that exclusively sell sour beers?? Like Drekker?
It seems to be a passing shower but I will take it. Hope your area also gets some rain. It's been too dry recently.
Also, stay safe on the road folks, as the road oil slicks can happen with these light rain after long period of dryness.
Are there any good pizza places that would be good for a first birthday party (mostly adults and older kids)? I’m thinking someplace with a private room/area where people can mingle. Expecting about 20 people.

Hi, I'm looking at downtown apartments in Englewood near Mackay Park and was curious how often the trains run, especially at night? I'm a very light sleeper and very sensitive to train horns and was wondering if I should look elsewhere to move?
Does anyone know if there are community gardens in Bergen County where I can rent a plot of land to garden during the year?
Looking to purchase a home soon and wondering how the bergen county housing market. Is it still hot with multiple offers and over asking? What specific neighborhoods have continued to be hot and which have cooled? And feel free to share your purchase experience for the last few months!
February break used to be the 3rd week in February and now many school districts have shortened that to a 4-day weekend and some cases only have President's day leading to FOURTEEN weeks without any breather. This is HORRIBLE for students mental health! And it's not like the holiday break has been extended to two full weeks nor is the school year ending in the 1st half of June.
Something needs fixing in order to restore proper breaks and still complete the school year in a proper fashion. Some states allow slightly less than 180 days if the districts have 900/990 hours (5 or 5.5 * 180 hours) while others allow three or four professional development days to count towards the requirement. In those states almost all districts have 2 weeks off at holiday time and 1 week either in February and April (if they end in mid-late June) or March and Thanksgiving week (if they end in May-early June).
Hi everyone, I’m looking for a place to host my sister’s bridal shower/brunch/luncheon in March 2025 (indoors). We liked the idea of a place like Willow & Whisk in Wyckoff (they don’t start parties til 4pm) so I’m looking for similar options for a lowkey but private, easy to get to venue or restaurant. If you have any ideas I’d love to hear!
Good day fellow bergen county folks,
Any of you know place that gives driving lessons?
A 30ish adult who has drivers license, but forgot how to drive, is looking for a patient instructor to provide weekly refresher.
Must be able to provide own car with the brake on passenger side too (for instructor safety)
Any insight would be appreciated!
Any recs?
