Reply to Where can an Uber Driver find $1 slices of pizza? by TonyRiggatini

NYC still has dollar slice joints so while we don’t have any here, it’s not because they don’t exist anymore…

Best slice in the city is when Bar is doing them. Second best is Brick Oven. Marco Polo is on par with ok dollar slice joints but it’s more expensive.

Reply to Working in NYC by sothisiswhyhmm

If you're within an hour, daily commuting to NYC would be fine.

If you live farther out than that but still on the rail line, then 2-3 times a week is probably OK, especially if you can take an express train. More than that would get stressful.

If you're in Hartford or somewhere like Guilford or New London, then maybe once per week would be OK.

In the above, I'm assuming that once you get to NYC, you do not have another long train ride. Commuting from CT to NYC is pleasant if your office is at or very near Grand Central than it is if your office is somewhere down in Lower Manhattan. You can get a lot of reading done on Metro North, but waiting for and riding subways in addition to that adds a lot of stress

Reply to best oil change place without the cost? by threetogetready

In east haven on route 1 the jiffy lube is phenomenal. The owner is legit the most upfront mechanic I’ve ever been to, and you are in and out FAST. Never once tried to upswell me, and they replace the wiper fluid feee as a courtesy.
