That hasn’t been my experience, but I’m happy that it worked out for you!

They went way above and beyond what I would have ever thought the post office would do when searching for a lost package of mine. I just filled out the online contact form I believe and they eventually got to it. Weirder things can happen but I doubt anyone is risking a job and pension for some random vintage clothing.

Reply to comment by alexnag26 in Radioshack Alternative? by alexnag26
I say that as somebody that buys a decent amount of electronics. I have home converted CNC milling machine and I needed all sorts of cable, plugs, switches (of many varieties), solder, etc.. I gave up with the local stuff. I was a Radioshack buyer until the day it died, but even then it was pretty pathetic. Sources like Digikey, McMaster, even eBay were well out pacing it by the end. Add in Amazon now (the last decade), Radioshack never stood a chance. BestBuy is a joke in comparison to Radioshack for actual electronics, online is the only way to go now.

If you miss the left turn at Albuquerque you end up in Pittsburg KS

I think ours were filled when they initially opened, but following the rules was not something anyone wanted to do, so now they're empty.

While most PG editorials seem to be recycled, angry shots at the Gainey admin at the request of the loudest whiners, this one appears to be an in-house think piece, confirming that indeed, the current PG braintrust is truly lazy and unexceptional.

They opened a new homeless shelter with 138 beds and it was filled within the first week. A few doors down from this pizza place is a church which also has 70 beds which I imagine are where these homeless people he's seeing are staying/congregating.
Increasing the supply of housing and services for homeless people is always a good thing.

The new downtown shelter in Pittsburgh was full the first day that it opened. So there is definitely a a need for more homeless services. That said, the corner of Smithfield and 6th in front of Burlington, and Market Square have become brazenly open drug markets.

Not sure why you got downvoted, but I also agree and could have posted at least 3 bands here. If OP wants to know bad enough, it’s a pretty lazy Google.

This is a good idea to help out legitimate homeless people....those that are down on their luck and just need some help to get back on their feet and do their part in society.
What he's seeing are drug addicts.
We have the same issue here in Albuquerque, 2 brand new great homeless shelters completed last year...nobody in them. And the streets are still filled with drug addicts. It's getting worse every week.

People are so used to dodging potholes that they are no longer able to drive in a straight line.
