My partner and I are moving into a new apartment and we scheduled w/national grid to come tomorrow and turn our gas on (made the app 9 days ago).

My partner called them today to double check for tomorrow, but they said that the app was cancelled and rescheduled for the 31st (without notifying us).

Lady on the phone said she’d talk to her supervisor and call back, but that was hours ago. We called and have basically been on hold for 40 minutes, only talking was to tell us that no one is available all week.

What can we do? We’re being forced to go without gas for the next 12 days.

My coworkers and I work in a big city in NY and work for a large company with multiple locations throughout it. Our clientele books rooms with us in advance, so there’s no walk-ins or anything like that. All other locations have some form of security, but not ours. After numerous incidents involving intoxicated strangers/unhoused people stumbling in, We have been requesting (and have been promised) security for over 2 years now. Nothing has changed, even when the last stranger to come in chased my GM (small woman) around a desk.

Yesterday, I was upstairs (we rent 2 floors of a building) and got a text from my two floor managers to come downstairs: A young man, unaffiliated with any our present clientele, had gone towards the restrooms and had a hammer in his hand. I checked out the men’s restroom, but he wasn’t there. That was when the building’s technician arrived (not security, but he’s good at being tough). He checked the men’s restroom as well, but then checked the women’s: There the man was, hammer in hand, waiting in a women’s stall. He was escorted out by us, and we called the cops and filed a police report.

Suffice to say, we are not happy with our bosses, who have been doing everything they can to not have anything in writing. They’ve sent over other people from other locations to try to get info out of me.

They also have a history of charging clients for security guards, and then just saying it’s me or another regular coworker. We are included in all of those receipts.

Idk if that’s helpful at all to our case. We are more concerned about how this has been a repeat issue, and we got super lucky this time around: If I was on break, if the tough technician wasn’t in the lobby, if my managers left to get help and left the man alone with our clients, etc etc.. I don’t consider myself to have ever been in any real danger, I’m also a big guy, but wow has this made me concerned for everyone here, especially the women in the workplace.
Is there anything we can, or rather SHOULD, be doing about this?? Despite us being a big company, we have no HR department, and there’s not really any worker’s union options for us either (that I’m aware of).

I don’t know anything about Fire TV, sorry. I’ve noticed twice or more in the past few months that my phone will automatically connect via Bluetooth to my roommate’s Fire TV downstairs. I do not recall ever connecting my phone to this TV, and I’m confused why it would just automatically connect me anyways. Is this normal or is my roommate being weird?

My friends and I are doing a Toy Story one-shot (except there’s lore to why we have souls, we’ll be fighting boogeymen, etc), and I really want to play a Transformer (Mechamorpher, non-copyright, Optimus prime equivalent). But I’m having a hard time even flavoring this build as a transforming toy.

My DM suggested a Warforged Artificer, and while I like guardian armorer for robot flavor, I can’t find any ways of being a car or plane even for flavor. Can anyone help with this?

I’ve seen the circle of moon Druid builds, but those are all animal transformations and I wanna go truck or plane (flight for plane, speed boost for car, something!)

CONCLUSION: it’s time to look into Druid and flavor animals as cars of planes. Thank you people!

I’m trying to create a fictional timeline for a superhero universe, going from the dawn of time to hundreds of years in the future. Are there any apps or tools or websites for this?

Most of the details will be in modern-ish times, ngl, but still.

I’m doing a lot of research into the Greek golden age and trying to figure out what was going on, who was doing what, etc., one of these being how there were golden age humans around and Kronos ruled over them, and they lived free of illness and toil, dying was like falling asleep, etc etc.

Did Kronos actually create these men? Or just rule over them? If not, how were they created?
