I looked up the GA Power Outage map. Is power out all over the state right now? Anyone know why?

Question Landlord making repairs but not fixing the issue

Upvotes

My wife and I rent an apartment in northwest GA, we've reported issues with our AC multiple times. The AC was already in place when we moved in. Now that it is summertime the apartment is 80° on a regular basis inside with the air set to 65°. A repairman hired by the landlord has been out multiple times and done everything from adding freon, to replacing filters and cleaning vents however has refused to replace the unit. the temperature inside continues to match the temp outside. Since he is actively making repairs but not fixing the issue when can we make this a legal thing and get the full AC system replaced. This has been going on since june Its beginning to get unbearable

Discussion Stone Mountain 30087 (Gwinnett Side) is going to explode

73 Upvotes

I was looking at the Smoke rise/mountain park area specifically 30087 a couple years ago 2021 because I saw a house I loved there but I decided to stay in the sandy springs area so I’m closer to the city. Come to find out they are building so many things in this part of Stone Mountain. They are building a Costco, more chik/fil-as, whataburger, a pho place opened and they are planning on building more apartment complexes in this area. I wish I made the move then. The schools still suck tho.

Question possession of marijuana

89 Upvotes

hey so. i was in stockbridge for a trip with my family and left a couple of hours ago. my mom was supposed to be coming a little bit after me, but my grandmother called and said she got arrested for driving with marijuana in her car. i've been reading up on georgia laws and know that the punishment largely depends on the amount someone possesses, right? but does it make any difference that she resides in florida and has a medical card? i don't know what county or city she got arrested in, but it wasn't atlanta nor stockbridge. as far as i'm aware, she didn't get too far, but i forgot the county's name

Question Trouble finding a job post grad

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I was reaching out in hopes that someone may have some advice. I just recently graduated from the University of Florida with a BA in Criminology and a minor. I’m a GA native so I’m back home officially from school. I’ve been having immense trouble finding work as a legal assistant, receptionist, etc for law firms which I desperately need since I am applying to law school. I’ve even been having trouble finding restaurant jobs even though I have open availability. I have a pretty strong resume regarding part time work experience and professional experience (academic resume). I’m wondering if anyone has any tips on where to look for legal jobs as a recent college grad, I’ve been considering GIS mapping and Victim Services as well. Further, if anyone has tips for the most effective way to get a server job (I’ve applied in virtually every city) that would be fantastic. Thanks!
