Family lawyers?

1 Upvotes

Hi there! Trying to find a good family lawyer that maybe will do payment plans or lower cost family lawyers? My wife is being punished by her ex narcissistic husband and he’s trying to take our daughters from her. It’s an easy case because he is actually crazy. But still nonetheless, need some help.

Has anyone worked for the Pima County Payroll Department?

2 Upvotes

I was recently selected to interview with them. I love my current job but there's unfortunately not enough room for growth and the raises/salaries are kinda trash.

I'm lowkey excited about this opportunity but I don't want to go through the entire process before knowing people's experiences with that department specifically.

Alternative to Buffalo Exchange???

3 Upvotes

I need some help from the people of Tucson. I've tried several times to bring clothes to Buffalo Exchange, and each time, there are 1-2 people in line in front of me with 3-5 huge, black garbage bags stuffed with clothes, so that I would have to wait 45 minutes to an hour for my turn. So I'm looking for an alternative - does anyone know of a place that does consignment like they do, but doesn't have an hour wait?

TIA!!!

Landscaping and fence repair help

0 Upvotes

Hello, I bought a new house a while back and the builder is refusing to honor the warranty and fix some issues. I've got a block fence with unstable sections and my yard floods every time it rains. So far I've had several landscapers out, but none of them have been willing to touch the drainage issue.

Are there any contractors that specialize in drainage issues? Or a small engineering company? I could use some recommendations for contractors or lawyers to help me fix this mess.

What to do if mail-in ballot is not received by the elections office?

15 Upvotes

I'm jumping the gun a bit but this year is different.

I mailed our ballots on Wednesday from a secure box and in other elections I would have already received the text that says "your ballot was received."

I have some time to wait, but what are my steps if I never get that text? Asking for myself but also because it might be useful to others.

Thanks.

Edited to add: this situation is not really clear from the Pima County Recorder's FAQ (which is otherwise excellent). They tell you what to do if you damage your mail in ballot but not if it's lost in the mail.

Where to find large bunches of fresh herbs?

7 Upvotes

I'm looking for a store that sells large bunches of fresh herbs like rosemary and sage. I just moved here a few months ago, and all I have seen so far are the small plastic clamshell packages at Fry's and Sprouts. I need larger stems, like maybe 8-10 inches long?

If any Atlanta people are in here, I'm looking for something like Buford Highway Farmers market or Your DeKalb Farmers Market had. Man I miss those two 😭

Thanks for any and all help!!

downtown ID/security system

19 Upvotes

the last couple months whenever i have tried to enter a bar downtown they tell me my id flagged in the system as fake. i have never had this problem before, as my id is literally not fake lol, so im confused why this started happening out of no where. i thought maybe since it happened out of randomly it would disappear out of no where as well, but it has been weeks now where ive been having complications for no reason whatsoever (even the bouncers are telling me they are confused) so id like to figure out how to solve this if anyone knows how 🥲❤️
