They keep to the convention area mostly. It gets crowded around the hotel, but outside of that area you wouldn’t even know there was a convention happening.

I doubt a company that size would bother fighting it.

Still food that late?

I remember last fall a tiny, older lady was belting out Ain't No Mountain High Enough on Carson near the rite aid and honestly she was pretty batshit but she was also living her best life. I salute them both

I use eBay for all my CNC stuff, but have not found a good place to get “controller boxes” good for din rail mounting, any suggestions?

The city of pittsburgh had like a 50m dollar surplus last year if I'm not wrong. Maybe they could get some sort of politics thing for some cash.

Is it going to collapse?

As someone who was born and raised in Uniontown, this tracks

I live nearby and it was a HUGE surprise when they put the pink up! But for many months before, it had been 100% black, and that was much worse--really dreary. The pink really perks things up on a gray Pittsburgh day.

A crusty, cantankerous coot

I mean. There are much, much, worse things to sing. If I hear someone singing Whitney, on the street. I'm just gonna stop and savor that moment, ya know?

Oh my.

Maybe not the worst, but maybe the saddest!

Please don't interpret this as defense of a big company. I think Highmark's change, at least as it was described in the media, was the most balanced WFH policy change that I've heard. It applies to VPs and above and is more of a work-from-someplace-other-than-home-three-days-a-week rather than a return-to-office. I would rather see more flexibility by an employer since WFH has been proven to work but this a less aggressive proposal than I've seen elsewhere.

u/Puzzleheaded-Equal70 linked a Pgh Business Times article in a previous post in this sub. I thought it described it pretty well. (It was much better than wpxi.)

Tequila, and I cannot stress this enough, Cowboy

I will always love you. Honestly he wasn't that bad

Probs sit in your lap.

I’m curious to hear about all downtown PGH employers who are choosing to restructure their WFH policy.

My employer is increasing required days in office gradually after having previously made it seem 100% remote for the bulk of employees was the new norm. The tune changed swiftly and its not sitting well from what I can observe.

As a left-handed person, I'm offended

dude--you need to work on your reading comprehension. She HATES you. She doesn't want you to sit anywhere near her. (And honestly, no one else in the section does either, your farts, man, you need to go to a doctor about that.) So I'm sitting your seat, with a ticket that looks exactly (go look up that word, I'll wait...) like yours. So, whatcha going to do, my little name caller?

My daughter lives about a block and and half from there.

Must have been pretty blacked out to end up over by the Carrie Furnace hehe

Whitney Houston? What song?

Don’t Talk to Me or My Hot Metal Bridge Son Ever Again

I would like less ushers so I can sneak into better seats (they’re empty anyway, why not 🤷‍♀️).

But they should absolutely be paid more even if I have to stay in my standing room
