If I had to guess there are probably people keeping literal trash on their patios. Maybe not you, but they are pretty much softly saying clean up your shit before we do it for you.

If you are wondering whether or not your things are garbage...Im gonna say then those things are probably not garbage and you are fine. Common sense should inform you what kind of things a landlord would want to clean up. If you have empty flower pots you don't want trashed, can you put them inside for a day or out a sign on them saying to not throw them away? If the owner is rarely there it seems like the path of least resistance is to just hide them for a day or two then put them back.

Leases by default almost always say that you are responsible for upkeep of the appearance of the unit unless other wise stated (like if lawncare was included). Yes its language that could be abused, but it's also a common sense rule where if you have literal trash on your patio, I'm actually doing you a big favor by cleaning it up for free and not charging you. So the owner is within his right to some degree... That said an over zealous owner could just have a hair up his ass. This is the shit that property managers have to deal with regularly. Rich pricks with no people skills are alot sometimes.

You think these kids are cleaning? /s

Edit: I assume the reason they don't tell children how to make deadly gasses is so that they don't make those deadly gasses in school.

Donuts Company on Midlothian is super friendly and has good old fashioned style doughnuts.

The Treat Shop on Jahnke has great (deadly) fried sweet treats as well.

Wait were you an employee or he coached you in soccer? lol

That's good to know. But I never go into a tot situation expecting anything.

Living over in this area, it would be really nice to see them tie it in to the surrounding neighborhoods so we can avoid some of the traffic.

This is a bad idea

Ya holy shit...people act like burning a body is no big deal.

I know you are probably broken up right now...but please don't bury your cat in a public park.

Before you fight this war...have you actually asked them if anything on your patio is "unfit?"

Sounds like a smaller plate would have fixed the problem.

PS all tots are frozen. You are paying for reheated frozen sides.

Got eem

Jesus those listing photos suck

Hey RPD actually did a thing. Now maybe they can stop the dirt bikers FROM DESTROYING MTB/HIKING TRAILS THE CITY PAYS TO MAINTAIN

You are sitting here complaining about how fast food workers in America are entitled and lazy...but you are literally eating at the lowest quality establishment...I dont get it what do you expect? You are voting with your money for shitty service and then complaining about receiving shitty service. Do people who say "this is the market setting the wage" actually understand their own wisdom? Yes. The market set a wage that is so low, if it went any lower, people wouldn't even show up to do the job...but you think if they are paid that amount (or slightly more than that) everything's good and they should do the job of someone making 5 times as much.

Why isn't the market telling you to spend more money if you aren't satisfied with service? Why does the market only work in one way where you get to set the price but the worker can't negotiate and ask for more? I do this one the time as a contractor. Seems like lots of people under the employ of others forget their labor is an asset that can be leveraged.

More to the point, do you just walk into businesses and judge the fuck out of everyone you think is a millenial? Maybe you aren't getting terrible service as much as you just have unrealistic expectations.

I mean you praised people for being paid less and doing more work...the implication seems to be that people should be grateful to make $13/hr

$13-$15 is not a liveable wage. Wanting more is not entitlement. I've, lost chunks of skin, been burned a thousand times, and abused by coworkers and customers alike...all for poverty wages.

Would you work at McDonald's for $13/hr? And you think they should be paid even less?

You may not have to "get a lawyer involved." But I'm suprised you can't even find a lawyer to draft a letter for you. They will be able to cite any laws and the survey etc and make it pretty tight, whereas anything you write might end up sounding too passive or even the opposite: threatening.

New Grand Mart. Both locations have a Noodle and Friends inside that sells pretty solid Korean (their mabo dofu is unfortunate tho). I would argue that since 88 Garden is gone (RIP), Grand Mart is the place to go. I think the Midlothian location specificaly is the best quality wise. These aren't sit down service restaurants. You order at a counter and can eat there or take it to go.

Havent been to Korean Garden in a while but it was sort of unimpressive to me. The owners were friendly as far as I remember, but just couldn't believe they were open right next to 88 Garden because it just didn't compete. The store that they have at the back of the restaurant is also somewhat limited, New Grand Mart has a bigger selection of Korean ingredients.

Yewon way out on Hull is also decent but it's a bit overpriced which is why I don't recommend it as much, plus it's a bit of a drive if you are in the city.

?

This city used to be more dense than it is now. VCU isn't the problem. Forcing cars into cities and putting them on literally every road with little to no protected routes for pedestrians and bikes is a problem. There isn't too many people here, there's too many cars.

I believe technically we are not yet part of it. But with the completion of the HOV line to Fredericksburg and all the new developmemt around Fburg, I agree we are pretty much there already.

The same thing that happens to any building of that age: Maintenance.

The way that you get nova is by continuing to build more suburban sprawl. Unless you can convince no one to ever build another house again...you are going to want to start advocating for more middle density at the edges of the city and in the counties.

Personally I think it's far too late and several decades of building only single family homes and strip malls has already caught up to us. We aren't going to just be "like NOVA"...we are on the cusp of being absorbed into the megalopolis that stretches from Fredericksburg to DC to Boston.

All that NIMBY-ism delivered the opposite of what people wanted.

It's a nationwide issue where car centric design is the default and we have multiple generations of Americans who can't imagine transport infrastructure that priorities safety and actual efficiency over just slapping more lanes on every road and calling it a day.
