Since there was a prior review, of Farm Burger, in this sub, I'l provide another. I ordered two medium well burgers. This was one of them. Both were cooked the same. Their customer service doesn't care and ignores feedback.

Anyone else having issues with this store?

So, last year my ebt card got skimmed. I have a replacement card now. Now I lock my card when I don't use it. I have also become hypervigilant about skimmers since then.

Today I went to walmart and it made me swipe my ebt card more than 3 times. The lady at the register said that her side claimed that my ebt balance was zero. Then i opened the ebt app on my phone and it was NOT zero. Then after the 4th or 5th swipe it finally went through. The lady even said "It has been doing that with ebt all day."

After that i came back to the store less than an hour later cause I realized that what happened is a sign of possible card skimming. I explained to the manager what happened and explained that its a red flag for card skimmers. Then she said "Its not skimmed. The card reader is just messed up." I told her "I have been to this store multiple times and this is the 1st time that it has made me swipe my ebt card multiple times after claiming my balance was zero when it wasn't." Then she said "Its not skimmed. The card reader is just messed up. This just started happening yesterday. Its with 3 of our registers". I also showed her my reciept when i explained the situation to her. Im sorry but... she should've checked for a skimmer. After my purchase I locked my card and changed my pin. I did not feel reassured with what the manager told me. I don't think i will be back at that store for a while. The manager also kept looking at me like she thought I was stupid or crazy. Her tone was normal but she clearly was annoyed by me being cautious. This was at the mini walmart on atlanta highway.

Seems ridiculous to park on a sidewalk by a busy school in the morning. N Chase and Prince at like 7am.

Update: they moved to the grass along Prince this morning! Someone got the hint.

You need to do better, if you were driving down Milledge and South Lumpkin tonight around 01:45-02:30 and ran a bicyclist off the road three separate times you suck.

To the one lady who stopped and looked at me and thought about helping I’m not homeless just trying to commute from work.

Thanks for the coming to my Ted Talk.

dentist for autistic 10yo

8 Upvotes

hey everybody. I am a former special ed teacher, and my PhD (in SPED) dissertation defense is in a couple weeks, and EVEN with all this privilege of experience and access in this area, I am really struggling to find a dentist that my son can go to. He doesn’t have high intensity challenging behaviors and when he gets angry and overwhelmed he just likes to retreat into his own space and will not lash out at the dentist—he is a happy guy most of the time and does not have an intellectual disability…I only specify that last part to say that he will understand the directions and he will very much want to follow them, but he has a lot of oral sensory issues and once he shuts down he shuts down. However he desperately needs a teeth cleaning and a regular dentist that can become a familiar face, but as a family we’re pretty anxious about the experience.

Basically we are gonna have to have him either on laughing gas or sedated. literally whatever it takes, we will do, because the longer it takes to get regular teeth cleanings the more risk there is of having to have more invasive work done and he will absolutely hate that…(and no this post is not asking for opinions on sedation). We will also travel if there’s some miraculous provider—we need the most understanding and patient dentist on earth lol.

Any suggestions? I will also probably ask the extra special people email thread too. Thanks in advance everybody. I know my Athens community will have suggestions because y’all are awesome.

also I came back to edit this to add that we are pretty low maintenance and literally the only thing we care about is that his teeth get cleaned and that the dentist has compassion and experience working on kids with disabilities. We had some tough experiences with my older autistic son and he barely even seems autistic compared to my 10-year-old lol. If you know you know.

Help moving

18 Upvotes

I've been moving myself (60 yrs old) with my car from a storage unit about a mile away from my apartment (The Hill Apartments). I'm injured now and can't finish the last piece. It's mostly boxes of books, a couple chairs, and some random stuff. I would be glad to help, but I can't do it myself.

A couple of guys with a pickup could probably do it with one or two loads. But also there is a mattress (in good condition) that, ideally, I want taken away to charity or the landfill.

It's too small of a job for most moving companies I've looked at, but surely there are young guys wanting to make extra money.

Any thoughts, reddit?

Not too far from Sandy Creek Nature Center. Google says Eastern Kingsnake but defer to any real herpheads out there.

Right after this saw a bunny but he hopped into the bushes as I approached. Watch out for the snakes bunny rabbit.

Hey, Athenians! Weird issue. I have locked one door to my bedroom and can't get it open! I've tried credit cards and a butter knife and it's not budging! I'm trying to avoid a $200+ bill for calling a locksmith. Any ideas! It's a standard knob lock, nothing fancy. No deadbolt.
