There are tons of NYC riders roaming around.

Switch to Lyft. 🤷‍♂️ Mine usually goes 1 of 2 ways: Call Lyft, driver arrives in 1 - 3 minutes. OR: Call Lyft, see NJ Plate, cancel immediately, call Lyft again, driver arrives in 3 - 8 minutes.

Could be...but I would be more pissed off if I wait 10 minutes for them, get in the car, they drive me to the corner and then tell me they refuse to take me...and since I'm the one paying a healthy amount for said ride, I want to be the least pissed as possible.

Sounds like "luxury" housing.

An iPhone is absurdly expensive. The ride can be expensive most of the time... sometimes not. Took it (Lyft) yesterday for $34 which is reasonable. For the amount of times I use it, still cheaper than monthly car payments, maintenance, registration, inspection, upkeep, insurance, gas, EZ Pass and parking. 🤷‍♂️

But not as quick to get to you, last minute, when you're running late.

Better yet... don't waste your time, and cancel it yourself.

Tried that but they all don't answer or take too long to answer. I just cancel it myself, immediately, if they have a NJ plate.

This used to be a huge problem for me and very annoying. I had this problem mostly with Uber, which I don't use anymore, for a variety of reasons. I now use Lyft exclusively, and I prevent the problem by immediately cancelling a ride that has a NJ license plate.

And you think the culprit is on Reddit waiting for you to ask?

Ok

Welcome to the city

I mean, that's the definition of "luxury" housing.

Oh. I always just look both ways and cross when I don't see or hear a train. Many times a train will be approaching and I just wait a little back for it to pass.

Why do you often have to cross tracks in front of the conductor? 🤔

I posted about a raccoon running wild weeks ago and urging people to be safe especially with children and pets and I got attacked with multiple comments saying racoons don't attack people, it's no big deal, yada yada yada. The comments were so obnoxious, silly and relentless that I just deleted the post completely.

When someone on this sub says "Jersey City is..." translate to "Downtown." 🤦

Whatever dude. Only thing strange is that you can't figure it out. 😂

Yea...that's definitely not what that always means.

I'm sure you're smart enough to figure it out. Instead of paraphrasing, re-read what was actually written. Reading comprehension is so neglected in this day and age.

You know not every door and lock is exactly like your set up, right? And that one can get locked out of their apartment even if they left it with their keys, right?

AND reimburse them for their deposit! 🤣

It's an overpriced cookie cutter rental with zero character, in an apartment building in an overpriced area of a non major city, next to transportation everyone always complains about on here, with overpriced fees for "amenities" you don't want and won't use. For $4300/mo you can pay a mortgage on a very nice real house with a real kitchen and private outdoor space.

And not have to "be responsible for paying [their] amenity fee...($975), $1000 transfer fee, $75 per person as an application to the building...and reimbursing [them] for [their] deposit of $1500. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤡

😂
