The only data available comes from Flock.

Context: the driver tried to enter my daughter's apartment without an appointment. Probably maintenance and a case of being at the wrong address but we'd like to follow up with the company to verify. Thanks.

UPDATE: Solved! Thanks to u/Ryder24 for the quick response. Y'all are great.

UPDATE 2: My daughter called the company and verified that the cleaning service workers were lost and couldn't find the right apartment. She's new to living alone and was a little worried. It's all good.

Just found this while cleaning out some cabinets and wanted to share.
Please share a nostalgic story about Jellybeans so I can cry about it later.

We just came back from a trip, thought I’d share some info in case anyone else is considering this route. We booked the tickets back in March, $650 per person is a bargain for summer time. We didn’t pay anything extra (it’s almost $40 per person to pick a seat). Our automatically assigned seats were in the front of the plane both ways. From RDU on Sunday, the plane was half empty (or half full :) ), we got seats together, on the way back (Tuesday) plane was almost full, we got seats in the same row but split.

The plane is small, it’s same size as you’d see on major domestic routes: 6 seats per row, 34 or so rows. Seat quality is also just average (in economy). I took a picture of the business class seats, they don’t look like much of an upgrade, tbh.

The plane is boarded from the back, starting with rows 30+, then 25+, etc. The restrooms for economy are all the way in the back. The ones in front are used by business class only.

Very hard to get any sleep on the outbound flight. There are only about 4 hours you’re left alone between the meal services and landing, their ambient light and screens are super bright. If you want to get any sleep, bring ear plugs and eye mask.

Note that when booking, you won’t see an option to order a special meal (e.g. vegetarian or kids meal). This needs to be done separately after booking but no less than 48 hours before the flight. There is a special form on their website to do that. They seem to have the same meal options on all flights: chicken or pasta (pasta is vegetarian). Flying from DUB back quality was a bit better. You get just one drink (soda, beer or wine), don’t recommend white wine - it’s served warm from a can and is not good. On flight from RDU, we got a warm breakfast wrap for second meal, going back just a cold cheese sandwich. Coffee was clearly instant. Also, since this flight is under 8 hours, no ice cream. :(

Some logistics tips in Dublin.

- For public transport, you need either coins or a card called Leap. The visitor cards can be ordered online in advance or purchased at the airport. Or you can buy a card for 5 EUR and load any amount on it. We found this option more economical since we didn’t ride that much. (Dublin is pretty small and transport routes aren’t super convenient to move between the typical tourist destinations, expect to walk a lot.) Regular cards are sold at any convenience store like Centra. On buses, you enter through the front door (there are no signs about it) and tap your card on the device somewhere near driver. On a tram (called Lua), you tap on the stop before boarding and then tap again when you get off. Oddly, you might need to hail a bus on the bus stop like you would a cab, otherwise they could just drive by.
- Regular buses from the airport take forever to get anywhere. There is an express bus that goes faster to the city center. Tickets are 9 EUR online or 10 at the bus stop. Taxi to our hotel was only 30 EUR, so with 3 of us it made more sense. You can use Uber, Bolt or Freenow by Lyft (separate app, regular Lyft doesn’t work). Bolt was cheapest. Airport signage is pretty good for all the transport options.
- On the way back, you can take 2 liters of liquid in carry-on in any container size. DUB operates similar to Toronto airport: you pass US security there and then just deplane like it’s a domestic flight in RDU. Get your duty free shopping done before you cross over.
- You don’t need any cash, tap/card payments are accepted everywhere. We had some euros from a previous trip and didn’t use any.

Wtf is going on?? That’s a 67% increase!!!

Hi. Just moved here, feeling incredibly homesick from my family. Used to be spoiled by visits with homemade food.

What are your việt restaurant recommendations, I’m talking authentic like your aunt made you a homestyle meal. I’ll also take recommendations for Indian and Korean; my college roommates’ parents would always fatten us up when they visited.

Thanks.

Any idea what is going there? I'm assuming some kind of multi family housing but wondering about the size. Address is 1426 Wake Forest Rd. I did a quick search on the county website and didn't see any permits.

Another truck tried it and failed. The W Peace Street bridge worked its magic as a can opener again. Police just arrived on the scene.

Does any know when Walnut Creek amphitheater generally makes a weather call? Based on the severe forecast for tonight it seems like we’d be hearing something .

Anyone else have tickets to guns n roses tomorrow night? If so, how are you feeling about the weather and has anybody been able to locate if we're allowed to bring in stadium seats like we would be if we were at a game? I'm reading everything and don't see anything other than bag policies.

ETA: Well I'm stupid and now I see where we can bring in cushion seats as long as there's no pockets and no arms.

I saw a post the other day about some of the worst bosses in the area or in the state or maybe just in general. But what about the great ones?. who are some of the greatest managers/leaders that you’ve worked with. Don’t have to name names just experiences.

Hii - Moved here from Texas about a week ago to start graduate school in Raleigh this August. I LOVE everything about Raleigh. The greenery, the endless nature scene, quality food and restaurants, the friendliness and welcoming atmosphere! yall have such a special city here.

I have two quick questions!

1. Where can I get a low-cost haircut? I just need a trim.
   
2. How do yall manage the spiders?!? Are they harmless? Any DIY natural pest control tips?

Here are a few of my shots from a few trips to the Dix Park sunflowers before most of them started drooping over in the heat. Believe it or not there were tons of people around when these were taken but I did my best to wait for the moment when nobody was in frame. These were edited from Google Pixel 10 pro raw files.

Anybody here tried out some spots for the restaurant week going on and have any recommendations? I do see a few good options but nothing out of ordinary but would like to try one of the places for dinner. Any suggestions?

Is there a schedule protest against Duke energy? The rate hikes are fucking criminal

Hello everyone! I got a tattoo about a year ago it’s very small about 1.5 inches and its script. I didn’t realize it then but my artist had made the letter “e” much lighter and thinner than the rest of the letters and now it just looks like a “c”. I was wondering if there are any shops or artists that specialize in fine line/single needle that also wouldn’t charge an arm and a leg to get it touched up. I got my tattoo in a different state so I can’t go there.

Please let me know if you have any recommendations thank you!

I'm a beginner DJ in the RDU area with a DDJ-FLX4, and I'm trying to build my setup without spending a fortune.

Where do y'all find good used powered speakers locally? I'm checking Facebook Marketplace, but are there any music stores, pawn shops, or other places around Raleigh, Durham, Cary, or Chapel Hill that usually have decent used DJ/PA gear?

My budget is really low right now, so I'm mostly looking for older Alto, JBL, Mackie, EV, etc. Just trying to find the best places to keep an eye on.

I know this has been brought up a few times in this sub, but can we just talk about how ridiculous and sensationalized WRAL’s weather alert days have become? I understand that they likely receive outside NWS guidance on these, but there is no doubt in my mind that the station execs force these to get eyes on their programming.

Let’s take a look at the recent history that I’ve put together on the weather alert days…

- So far in July, 16 of 23 days have been deemed WRAL weather alert days, including 6 straight from the 2nd to the 7th and now a full consecutive week from last Friday to this coming Thursday.

- Since June 11, there have been 25 total weather alert days.

- The vast majority of these days have been due to heat, and occasionally because of the isolated chance of storms. As someone who has lived in North Carolina their entire life, these “weather alert days” are just typical NC summer weather.

I appreciate WRAL trying to keep their viewers safe, but I strongly believe these alert days are going to create a huge cry wolf effect. If every single day is an alert, why should anyone pay attention when we have a truly dangerous round of weather? The meteorology department has become nothing more than Chicken Little constantly screaming that the sky is falling.

In the unlikely event that someone from WRAL comes across this, I’d love an explanation for the reasoning behind these decisions. As I said before, I fully understand the better safe than sorry approach, but at some point if every day is “dangerous”, no one is going to take the forecasts seriously moving forward.

Hey, I am looking to get civic type R cleaned/detailed I want to make sure that the right products would be used especially for the alcantara seats. If anyone can recommend some shops or people it would be appreciated.

Hey all,

Not sure whats going on with my ears, but they feel plugged. I used some debrox cleaning stuff, and it took care of one of my ears, until both started feeling clogged. Which Urgent care do you recommend going to getting them flushed out with the heavy duty stuff? How much did you pay too? I got BCBS insurance through my Employer. THX

Would like to try some of the fresh fish in our asian markets. I got nowhere the two times I tried to ask them to clean and filet a whole fish. I dont speak any asian language, nor Spanish (quute a few of the staff at fresh International Market in Brier Creek are Spanish.)

Suggestions?

I host a Board Game night every Tuesday at Gatsby's Bar in Raleigh. We usually start around 6:30-7:00PM.

I haven't posted in a long time and just wanted to let everyone know we're still going.
