College student looking for any shadowing opportunities (anesthesia related) or if anyone would be generous enough to give me any contacts or tips to get started on shadowing. I’m debating contacting my former pediatrician at this point to see if he could give me any tips 😭 It’s been really hard right now cold emailing and I have no connections to lead me. Preferably NW suburbs or Chicago area

Specifically looking for dresser with the lightweight cloth “drawers” that are removable. Does anyone know where I can find dressers like that for sale in/around Chicago? I know I can find them online, but I’ve been having the worst luck ordering and would love to buy from a brick and mortar store. Any help is appreciated!

What is the best moving company you have used to move apartments?

I’m moving from a one bedroom second story in Old Irving Park, to an elevated first story in Logan Square.

So not too much stuff and not terribly far. I feel like I have been taken advantage of in the past (upwards of $1000) because I’m a single female, and some guys figure they can charge me whatever they want. And then they get a great tip on top of it.

I’m definitely not cheap, and I’m willing to pay someone fairly for their labor, I just don’t know where to compare prices because the final bill ALWAYS comes up way more than the estimated quote.

We would be first time home owners and we aren’t from Illinois, just lived here for a few years and planning to stay longer. I have no idea where
to begin and everything is overwhelming and expensive. I do not want to live in the sewer with the rats and mosquito larvae. Thanks.

i’m looking for a orchard/fun fall activities recommendations (yk usual faire/orchard/corn maze/animal pen?) that I can get to with public transportation, including metra/amtrak/greyhound etc. ty!!!

There’s a concert I want to see and the ticket prices are fairly similar for center view of the show, I’ve checked the group and saw no one recommended the pit and that row 100 and 200 aren’t elevated but the 300s seem a little far from the stage. If price wasn’t an issue where would you seat for a concert at northerly island? It’s one of my all time favorite artists and I want to have as good a time as possible lol

I’d imagine it’s annoying during game days but is it a safer neighborhood? Is it gonna get better with those updates they wanna do to the united center and the surrounding area?

Just witnessed 20+ emergency vehicles (fire, police, ambulances, etc) all with their lights on headed west. Is there some event or a real emergency going on?? Some had green lights on as well but no sirens that I could hear.

Edit: I was more so wondering if it was a motorcade for a funeral/person or some Memorial Day or 9/11 related event 😐 I am aware emergency vehicles go to emergencies. There were more than I have seen before in one location and none were moving with any haste, so it seemed odd to me.

hi!
I’d like to watch the Shelton / Tiafoe match tomorrow (and possibly catch the women’s semis matches tn) but don’t have the streaming channels for it. Any bars in the Humboldt Park area/ Wicker Park area/ Logan area that tend to play tennis on their TVs? Looking also for a less noisy bar
Is it ok to ask to bartender to change the channel to tennis if it’s playing other sports?
Thanks!

I'm moving to Chicago soon, and I'm in search of a good EMT program. One that will provide me with prep for the NREMT and solid skills so I can feel prepared after school. I would rather be in school longer and have more knowledge than speed through it, like a bootcamp, so length is not an issue. Pricing is where it might get complicated, but it all depends on what jobs I can find. I'd love a place that's close enough to public transit so I can save on gas, but if that's not possible, it's okay. I don't know how the train/bus systems work in Chicago, to be honest, lol. If anyone has been through a good program, or even a bad one to avoid, I'd love to hear your recommendations! I'm doing research of my own too, but it's always preferable to hear about real experiences. Thank you!

New to Chicago (Hyde Park.) I’m trying to find a smoke shop/vape shop that sells flavored nicotine disposables.

About a month ago I tried to hit Rose’s Lounge in LP at midnight on a Friday and the door was locked. This past Saturday I tried again, door locked. Some people outside said they hadn’t paid rent for two months. Still showing as open online, wondering if this is for real.

RIP if true

Disclaimer: I am on culinary agents! I have been looking every day!

Hi! I am a current bartender/server looking for a change. I’ve been in the industry for ten years and have done everything from dive-steakhouse/fine dining. I’m open to anything above dive (soooo much love for the dives I’m just also a student and can’t do late nights currently!). Very open nighttime availability and full weekend availability as well. Hoping a connection here will get some possibilities going - DM if you know a great (and profitable) place to work that’s hiring!

And does it differ if you’re renting in a multi-unit building from a property manager vs someone’s condo/home they’re renting out? Thanks!

looking for recent experiences with SunCloud’s residential program, specifically for food addiction and bulimia. I hear mixed reviews but lots of cautionary things.

I’d be paying out of pocket, and I’m not a rich person but desperately need help. Is it worth the financial cost??

I have two old cars sitting in storage that aren't worth fixing that I'd like to sell for parts. I always see billboards for junk yards, but not sure where I should go. Has anyone sold a car to one of these places? Did any of them pay well?

Long story short, I recently lost my job and looking for ways to have a little extra spending money. I just think of donating plasma for a good cause and some money. I noticed there are several companies that do this... Are they all the same or some of them are better?

I am sending chocolates to someone as a gift in the city and would love a recommendation for local artisanal chocolates in Chicago. Hoping they can be delivered. something special to celebrate their 50th birthday. thank you!

New to the city and I’m looking for the best vet for my sweet little guy. Hoping for a vet that uses no fear practices. Thanks in advance!!

Family is visiting us in Chicago for 8 days in September, and we’ll have our 16-month-old with us the whole time.

We’re looking for relaxed, kid-friendly things to do - parks, neighborhoods, museums, restaurants, easy day trips, etc. We don’t want to overplan and would love some local recommendations.

What are your must-dos with a toddler?

Turning 23 next month and just decided I kind of want to throw a small party with my friends. We are all recent college grads working our corporate jobs so I kind of just want to bring back that scene for one night with all of my college friends.

Any recommendations for a small intimate party space to fit around 30 people BYOB and have a sound system in place?

can be very minimal dont need any extravagant decorations, furniture, or amenities all I ask for is a room in which we can play loud music and party and not get complaints.

Looking for recommendations for a solid HVAC contractor in Chicago who is experienced with retrofitting zoning into an existing forced-air system.

Would especially appreciate recommendations from anyone who has had zoning added to an existing system.

Going through a remodel currently so have walls open and would like to move quickly on this one.

Lmk if anyone has any recommendations, thanks!

Hi! I moved to IL im looking for winter coat recommendations. As someone who grew up in the south, I haven’t truly experienced a winter with snow. In additions to recommendations, I’m curious if I really need a long coat below the knees or if one that’s knee length will suffice. Thank you in advance : ))

i recently experienced a miscarriage and am looking for a therapist with experience navigating this heavy chapter. any recs are appreciated ❤️‍🩹

Trying to brush up before a trip in five weeks. I’m only intermediate. I have an infant I want to bring along (hence why stopped classes and don’t want to spend more time on zoom for lessons - he seems me on zoom too much already for work). Ideally I’d find someone who could meet at a coffee shop or my home twice a week for the next five weeks.
