He ded? :'(

Thereabout: just one block over on 15th (Fado).

Legend.

Literally any bar that I frequent.

Literally any bar.

Not The Onion.

I ran into Michael Richards after the show!

It’s around the corner from me, and I’ve been a regular since day two in 2007 when they opened, so it’s a no-brainer.

I also get stuff off the menu, but that’s our little secret 🤫🤐

The best block (source: I am around the corner).

> the best sushi in the city

Yes.

Is 9th Street Music (RIP) still in the area? They used to comp you the toll, if you came from Philly, too.

(They moved out from next door of The Troc when the building was flooded, IIRC).

Blue Bond Guitars and BridgeSet Sound are the only one that come to mind off the top of my head.

Top of the list.

White wine is not wine.

It's a grape juice booze.

I've worked with:

• no PTO or sick days (hourly; you could get a sick day with a Doctor's note, but the time was mandated by number of hours you worked (and YMWV depending on where you work, not all cities have, AFAIK))

• PTO and unlimited sick days

• unlimited PTO and a certain number of sick days, PTO could not be used for sick leave and vice versa

Lumped together one makes things tricky, but if it's OP's case - since work mandates 5 days leave, they oughta make those paid sick days outside of a policy (but I guess that would work in an ideal world).

> I'm trying to avoid using a significant chunk of my PTO.

If you have PTO, you should have sick days, no? With more than 3 of those in a row employers normally need a doctor's note, but if they are mandating 5 days leave themselves in case of COVID - you shouldn't be stuck with having to use your vacation time and such, it all oughta be under a different policy.

Check with your manager/HR.

> Just call it a hotel.

Different concepts altogether.

I lived in a place with electric heat that couldn't keep up in winter, and even at full blast it was, like, around mid-60s in some areas of the apartment.

Never again.

Same kind of a setup (radiators), about 900 square feet one bedroom on a topper floor of a walk-up - $0, everything but electricity ($40/month) and Internet.

A house with central air, about 1100 sq ft on 71F year round, - may be $250 when it's really cold out.

> To save on utilities, I keep the thermostat at 63 and wear tons of layers in the house. My most recent bill was $140.

Suffering through all that to may be save an extra $100 a month during colder months?

Nope from this corner.

Only girl goats, though.

Very sweet, I prefer cows milk (source: drank directly from the source).

Legend.

In the old country 1st of March is the first day of spring (also the 1st of every month is usually start of a season: December 1st is the first day of winter, January 1st is a first day of coder winter, February 1st is the first day of the worst winter, etc.)

The proper weather for spring didn't kick in until later in April, but hey, after 6 months of miserable weather we needed something at least in paper.

G.O.A.T.

> Beers are reasonable for that kind of setting, but prepare to pay $20+ for any cocktail.

Last time I was there last year the cocktails were under $20, but super sweet, mos def not worth the price. I don't mind paying $20 for something great here and there, though.

$100 per person with drinks before tip is a price for a proper dinner at a proper place, no? However, I'd say their prices could be inflated due to the location and the "wow" factor.

The JG $218 tasting menu is a rip off by the looks of it. I can think of several places I'd go to before I'd even entertain an idea of having a dinner there. Their bar is great, though (the one you walk downstairs to, atmosphere and drinks selection).
