Gem, maybe not such a great idea for the baby to have 3 different sitters every week. The first year of childcare is extremely expensive but it does get cheaper as they get a little older.
Seriously though – how many people on this board can say they have been to a Hip hop club?
I can! I loved them, but it was true – the club would be awesome for the first few weeks b/c it was a good mixed crowd of various people and then a few weeks later – you would start to get a different kinda of crowd and then you would almost always get a few people each weekend looking to start trouble or” wanna -be tough” guys just starting ish with people.
Frankly, I don’t care if they put a club there at all -but I guess the issue remains that not all hip hop clubs are safe and OK and why can’t a community speak up and not want it in their hood? It really has nothing to do with color as it does who goes to these clubs.

UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is SO wrong. why is this legal?
it’s like not hiring a nurse cuz she likes to watch horror movies.
im getting sick of that notion that just cuz you in nyc you deserve to be compensated more. please! it’s like people you need to tip bartenders 2 dollars just cuz it’s NYC? um, i dont think so
Thanks BHS…mine is a Liebherr, now out of warranty, which gets ice build up along the freezer wall. We just whip out the hair dryer and melt it every couple of months.
Thanks…jessi…I think this is the first time I’ve posted to the OT.
I have NEVER been to a hip hop club
BHS- that really sucks-especially since the guy was doing a great job. Most people get bad credit because of circumstances, not maliciousness.

Gem- great points
And I would be honest and tell them your situation. They’ll only be annoyed if they find out later, when they are scheduling an interview.
Scott- maybe you could use the fridge as a heater? 🙂
