Legit cost is what does it for us, we are a family of 5 and can’t get out of eat n park for less than 65 or 70 with tip now and they don’t serve alcohol. Dinner out once a week is now dinner out once a month.

Even fast food eating off the deals menus are 35 to 40.

I’m all for paying more if the money goes to the service workers and I understand the increases, but my household income hasn’t gone up enough to continue to eat out as we did even a year ago.

This is super weird. Like super weird. You need to see how old they are as most likely these are not going to be very efficient. A normal response from a homeowner who needed more hot water would be to go tankless not add another 40 gallon tank.

Also, most likely the tanks are in the basement which generally are not insulated well so keeping the two tanks heated is going to cause them to be almost constantly running.

I’m also trying to figure out in my head how 2 tanks would run, does one go to one part of the house and the other go to a different part or does one feed into the other?

This is very curious.

Reply to Opinions on potential rent: is 4500 before utilities too much for new construction, 3b 1.5ba, 1 car garage, quiet st in great neighborhood (central Lawrenceville) too much? What is your estimate on utilities (heat and electricity) for such a size? New to town here, would love your input. by prenzlauerallee3

Let me ask you this, what do you think?

Why are you asking Reddit? This is such a dumb fucking question.

Here is an idea. Tell the owner that Reddit says that rent is too damn high.

See how that works out.

I have had this happen twice with different signs as I live behind a shopping center.

I don’t know if there is some kind of burn in time before they seem dimmer or if I just got used to them, but after a month or so it wasn’t bad anymore.

Reply to Is there a accepted norm here for tipping? by pghgreatest

  1. If they seem friendly and it is a place I go to frequently and they know me and have a cup I will throw no more than 10% in.

  2. Pizza delivery I really don’t do because the quality places don’t deliver. In that case see number 1. Really any delivery now with Uber eats and the like, I don’t do because the order is rarely correct.

  3. Start at 20% and go up from there. If the server is getting slammed and I know trying their hardest, I will go 30% or so.
