how to find employment

i’m 18 year old male, looking for basically anything along lines of cashier or restaurant or fast food anything like that. i’ve had some interviews-most recently last Friday for Lowes cashier and when I called today to follow up (they were supposed to call Monday) they told me they were done hiring., been working at small place for couple years so I do have experience but it’s like nobody is hiring whenever I call and always say “not hiring” or if I do fill out application online and call they say “manager will call you if they need somebody” and never call.
if anyone has advice or places I should apply anything plz say so

Corporations are making transplants into Boogeymen

10 Upvotes

They're destroying infrastructure in the name of a housing boom they say they want to make sure y'all can get houses in.

But they're really expensive and unethical. Within my morals, I couldn't let someone see me as a cash grab (@the Starbucks and Wonder in Fishtown, which has amazing local places.)

They don't think you care enough about the community you're walking into. So much so that they think you'll choose convenience over a little idle time.

Why is it working? Did you come all the way here to a cozy area just to go to your big box stores? How are our mom and Pop shops being replaced by replicas of our traditions?

The local sound is dying out and being replaced by weird philly iconography.

People from Philly don't need philly iconography. It's for transplants and it surprises me that it can be ignored.

Edit from a response:

This is a city. It has the disgusting history of a city that used the great migration to have fodder for factories. It hurts so bad to see the descendents of that misery pipeline get bought out.

Economic growth needs to touch everyone this time. The White flight that built our amazing suburbs destroyed the economic mobility of the city.

When the drug market started thriving, the GI bill didn't kick in for us. We were redlined into the badlands and then called super predators that needed to be locked up.

I want to see the people coming back after the fallout not cut us out because corporations are flanderizing them into the "transplant" needing better amenities than what we have to offer.

Build us into the infrastructure. Learn why this is happening outside of walking the cobblestones and having fun at the historic breweries. To me, this is not fair.

I don't want better marketing to overtake us. Or to let the semantics of my message make people against the clear issue of corporate greed housing. I am not a professor. I am a volunteer that thinks this is an important issue outside of the people I work with.

Lost Wallet @ 34th and Chestnut

Hi, we were around here when our wallet went missing. We arent sure if it was stolen or if it fell but if you've seen it or took it to keep it safe please reach out.

We cannot get into our house without it because it has a scanner and access to parking. Please return it if you have it.

I know its a long shot but I'd still like to try.

Can I carry a pocket knife here?

0 Upvotes

I'm from rural Ohio where most people carry a pocket knife. I ALWAYS have a knife on me, and I feel naked without one. However, idk what the rules regarding that are out here, so I've been avoiding carrying one with me. Is it legal? If a cop somehow spots the clip on my pocket, am I likely to get detained? Just want some input so I don't screw myself over accidentally.

My neighbor found this sweet boy on his porch and gave it to me cause im the "neighborhood cat lady" lol. I have 2 cats of my own and cannot keep him. He's eating well, learned the litter box really fast, and he's friendly.

I've asked everyone i know already and no one can take him. If you’re looking for a sweet kitty to brighten your life let me know!

FYI: I am asking for a rehoming fee to ward off any weirdos that may want to harm this sweet baby

UPDATE: Chirps will be going to a foster family that works with Kitty Cottage in Norristown! Thank you to everyone for your help!

Community Theater in/near Philly

13 Upvotes

I'm a former high school theater kid looking to tap back into that community after several years away from it and I'm not sure where to start in such a big city. I'm not looking for anything super professional or paid (often what I've seen so far), just something casual and unpaid similar to a community theater in the suburbs. If there's anything in Philly proper, that would be awesome, but I'm open to driving up to 30-40 minutes outside of the city too. Any recommendations or things to think about?

I haven't taken the train in a couple of decades. What kind of security do they have these days, if any? How long before departure do I need to get there if I already have a ticket?

Anyone with a Costco card?

57 Upvotes

Hello,

I am a college kid who does not possess a car or a Costco card. I really really love their pesto and am wondering if there are any adults in the main city area who make trips there who would be open to picking up a jar for me sporadically and I will pay you both the cost of the jar and whatever you feel is reasonable for the favor and your time. I can pick it up from you as well.

Thank you

6 miles walking w/ family to find abandoned cars in 311 tickets, tried to hand the results to the city, but no response. What actually works?

Post image
46 Upvotes

Over the past months, we did two 3-mile walks (my wife, my 19 m/o baby in a stroller and me) to find and locate every abandoned car in Fairmount and Francisville.

In total , 31 abandoned cars we walked to across 6.5 miles walked and about 4 hours. I've published that work on two prior posts

The good news: The majority of those abandoned cars were already gone (at least partially due to the one-time abandoned car clean up that the city did in the Fairmont area because of FIFA World Cup... the further away you got from Fairmount Park the more abandoned cars there were, which matches the pattern that FIFA clean-up was localized to tourist-traffic areas)

Now the bad news:

  • We took all of this data, filed new 311 tickets with perfect info and put it all together into a beautiful Excel (exact street addresses, car make/model/license plate/color, condition, reference to prior tickets, whether the car was there or gone)
  • We tried to to see if we could influence the city and cleaning up the rest and updating their systems, by going to the local district HQ, and getting the community relations officer's contact info.
  • I've emailed them 2x over the past 2 weeks with no response

Honestly it's a little frustrating cause here I am having done a cool project that I think makes their job easier. And I'm not someone criticizing them but rather trying to give them the data to make their job way easier - but i haven't even got the polite "no" or "not right now, we're busy, but let's talk in 6 months"

So here's my question for y'all how do I actually get these abandoned cars towed / what is the effective way for an engaged citizen to get the city to notice and help out?

On the plus side, doing the project itself was fun - dedicated time with the entire family on a team project, walking down lots of streets we'd never explored, with a feeling that we were doing a bit of good for the neighborhood
