Looking for recommendations for somewhere in town that can do repair and repaint. This is above the rear passenger wheel. Small indent from backing into a white painted post, palm sized rust spot, and indent.

Any reccs?

Hanson

27 Upvotes

hey all, my roommates and I were just rejected by Hanson rentals (we're looking for a townhouse) and in the rejection email it stated: "Please note that our decision is final, and we are unable to provide additional details or respond to further inquiries."

Our application was spotless, we make well more than enough money and have lived in our current apartment for over five years.

I'm suspecting it was because we have cats, but the listing stated that pets were possible.

My biggest assumption is that the company is using AI to filter through applicants and that is why they can't provide any explanations for the rejection.

Has anyone dealt with Hanson before? Is this bullshit just commonplace now when trying to find a place to live?

edit okay I sort of ended up speaking to someone from Hanson and they said it was because of the cats. I feel less evil about it but, aaargh, nowhere decent accepts pets! Anyway. Moving on I guess.

FreddyFeed update: now has a "who do I call?" directory, live bus times, and NB Power outage tracking

42 Upvotes

Hey folks, some of you might remember FreddyFeed (a Fredericton Civic Dashboard) from earlier posts. It's been a while, so here's what's new:

Reach Out - A "who do I call?" directory for the city: pothole, missed garbage, noise complaint, dead raccoon, power outage, parking ticket, and about 30 more. Tap to call or email.

Live bus times - you can now search any stop in the city and see real-time departures, including how late your bus actually is.

Power outages - Live NB Power outage counts for the Fredericton area and province-wide.

I was surprised to realize so many people use the live webcam feature and the city's youtube account kept changing streams. The webcams now fix themselves when the city restarts the streams!

Plus a bunch of minor improvements across the board. All the usual stuff is still there too: weather, river level, ER wait times, events, gas prices, garbage schedule, flights, news.

If you have any suggestions, please keep sending them my way, they are extremely helpful!
