I mean if it’s medically necessary to be at a hospital, that’s understandable. I gave birth at the center and most people I tell, never knew it was an option. Even my PCP had no idea there was a birthing center in the city.

Well if you find several of these in your private spot every morning what other option is there? Calling the company 5 times a week is not practical.

Landlords are cheap fucks and won’t put them in.

Reply to Winter's last gasp on Friday? by Aggravating_Foot_528
Our biggest snowfall of last winter was March 12. I often expect winter to be in evidence into May - the last 3 Mays, we did still have quite cold weather.

As someone who rented a lot of places wo them, I respectfully disagree here.

So, I lived over a storefront when I was straight out of college. (In the mid-90's).
It is insanely convenient, however... any store selling food in a densely populated area is going to have issues with 'extra guests.' Some of these guests will have 4 legs and some will have more.
Population control with said guests is essential, not as cheap as you'd probably like and if you have a landlord like I had it's almost impossible to be reimbursed.

I was downvoted for asking if there is an alternate contact for the company other than their app. There is some weird astroturfing for Spin here.

>This is no different from someone blocking your driveway with a car. And like when someone parks a car illegally, you're not allowed to just take it or destroy it. You have to go through proper procedures to get it moved even if it is a major headache for you.
Not necessarily disagreeing with you, but what's the cutoff for this?
​
There is a practical difference between a scooter and a car being left in your driveway illegally: the scooter is easily destroyed/thrown away, while the car isn't. But your point that illegally abandoned property doesn't make it the landowner's property still stands.
​
More to the point: what if the item left behind is a bicycle? A skateboard? A pair of shoes? A single shoe? A single sock? What if any of these are partially worn/damaged? Does that change the calculus?
​
These are all transportation aids, in descending values. My point is that at some point, we cross the threshold between "that's still their property and you can't just get rid of it" and get into the realm where it seems reasonable to consider the item as lost/abandoned, or even litter.
​
Is there a codified dollar amount of value that sets this? Some legal phrase about 'reasonable expecation'?
​
Getting back to OP's case specifically, why can't they just throw them away, and if anyone says anything, just reply, "Someone littered them in my driveway, so I cleaned up their mess."?

I’m so confused why you’re being downvoted. Reddit is so confusing to me.

Thanks for finding that. I was trying to look it up on my phone while pushing a stroller, so I wasn't as focused. :)

Check out Rescue & Relax - I'm pretty sure this is a storefront with apartments over it. Located in the Edgewood neighborhood. https://www.rescueandrelax.com/
I think you will need to consider zoning. Some neighborhoods are not zoned for multi-use buildings. Some are. I agree with u/LostEnroute, look at existing business districts. I don't think parking will be a huge issue, that depends on the business district.

That's a good point, thanks for the insight. Location is absolutely important, I'll take that into consideration should we move to the city. Thank you!

Did you fill out the "acknowledgement of paternity" in addition to the form for the birth certificate? If I recall correctly, one is for the mother to fill out but then the dad has to fill out something separate. Though this may only be for unmarried parents.
And FWIW, I gave birth at Magee three times. First, care was horrible. Second, care was amazing (though baby was immediately transferred to children's, so maybe that's why they were so nice?). Third was mediocre, but at that time I guess they figured I was a seasoned pro 😄

Very hard to answer without being more specific on location. You are buying the main street/neighborhood more than a type of building. Personally, I wouldn't worry about parking.

How about no?
What is the manager going to do? Call the cops? They’re on their way anyway.
Best thing to do is lock people inside esp in the back to keep them safe.
If this truly happened, and it probably did, that manager sucks pretty badly.
