I have to take a proctered test at the Pearson Vue testing center in the very near future. Has anyone taken a test at one of these sites? What are we allowed to bring into the testing center? What's the whole experience like?

Hi I will be traveling through Columbus OH in a 16ft truck this coming summer. Any hotel recommendations that would be safe and not worry about break ins? It’ll only be for one night of sleep then leave in am. Thanks!

….curious if anyone knows of anyone in Columbus getting one?

Tonight our group had one of the most disrespectful restaurant experiences we’ve had in a long time.
For over an hour, a large party allowed their children to scream nonstop, run all over the restaurant, and climb on furniture while everyone else around them tried to eat. Staff appeared uncomfortable addressing it, and the disruption went on far beyond what any reasonable customer should have to tolerate.

Eventually, someone in our group calmly asked that the children be controlled. Instead of apologizing or correcting the behavior, multiple adults from the party came over to confront us and lecture us about how we should have “handled it differently” because the restaurant was not “fine dining.”
That completely misses the point.

You do not need to be in a luxury restaurant to show basic public courtesy. Casual dining is not a free pass to let children turn a restaurant into a playground while other people pay to enjoy a meal in peace.

No one demanded silence. No one attacked their family. We simply expected the same basic standards of behavior that most people understand in shared public spaces: don’t let children scream continuously, run through the restaurant, or climb on furniture for an extended period of time.

The most frustrating part was the entitlement and confrontation afterward. Instead of recognizing that their behavior had affected everyone around them, they chose to intimidate other customers for speaking up.

More restaurants need to stop being afraid to enforce basic standards of behavior. Customers should not have to choose between staying silent or being confronted for politely asking for common courtesy.

Stayed at an Airbnb in St. Pete last weekend with my girlfriend. Second night there she noticed a small hole in the wall of the bedroom behind what looked like a decorative clock. I pulled it off the wall and there was a small camera inside pointed directly at the bed. I yanked the whole thing out.

I immediately reported it to Airbnb and they suspended the listing. Filed a report with local police too. But now the host somehow has my contact info and has been texting me saying I "destroyed his personal property" and that he plans to take me to small claims for the cost of the device.

I have a little bit saved up but theres no way im letting this guy shake me down after what he did. I have photos of the camera in the wall before I removed it and screenshots of all his texts.

Can he actually sue me for this? And is what he did just a civil thing or is this criminal? Asking because the officer who took my report was kind of vague about next steps.

If you were the person who won the auction of unit 0627 on march 25th at the Hilliard Public storage please reach out to me. We will pay money for the books.

We were told by Public storage that we had until March 31st to pay and move out, but they auctioned the unit without us knowing.

Since then we have tried to locate any whereabouts regarding my husband’s library of Arabic books but no trace of it.

The books were stored in dozens of home depot boxes and they are all leather-bound books.

Please message me if you know anything!

Thank you

Hello, I am a white dude from the middle of nowhere ohio, I've always wanted to try a black barbershop because I always see videos and I love the atmosphere. But I am afraid to go in and not be accepted or just laughed at. I hold no hatred in my heart and just want to live a little. Anyone know where I could go?

Edit: Some of y'all are so pressed about my question, I'm trying to include more diversity into my life without invading other ethnicities safe space
