Hello folks! I'm writing this post to see if I can get some input on an issue I've recently run into.

Last Friday I was taking pictures with my T3i. Midway through the night right after taking a picture does the screen remain black and the red light to the bottom right rear of the body remains lit. Not new to seeing this happen I give the camera a few minutes to process this image. I probably hit the dial by accident before this picture and the shutter may still be open.

I look over the camera and see that it's still in the mode I set it to. The screen is still black and the light solid red after 5-10 minutes. So I switch the camera off. It doesn't shut off. I decide to remove the batter

Between the summer of 2013 and spring 2016, I worked at an after-school/summer day camp program in New York City. This is a series of stories I’m writing to describe my personal experiences as well as provide an outlook to how things have fared since the time I started in this mostly overlooked neighborhood. The community center was also shut down recently without much notice.

It was a cloudy day in July when I pulled up to the public housing project community center with my friend.

I'm heading back to the area to see how it fares after having helped yet another customer, and a short man with a high-end stroller asks me where the bicycle pumps are if we carry them. So I point in the direction of the pumps, which were in plain sight from where he was. I carry on with my duties.

I'm putting bicycles back on racks and placing skateboards back on the shelves and making another go-arou

I mean... What's the deal with black jelly beans? I'll eat them. They do taste good! Same goes for black licorice!

This story goes back roughly four years ago, in the summer of 2010. I was an overnight employee at one of these big box retail stores making just short of $10 an hour. Hence my Reddit username. I didn't like the job very much the moment I was thrown out onto the sales floor for the very first time.

There were a few odd happenings throughout my six months working there but this one night just basically takes the cake.

I was working the snack aisle as usual, and always spent about 2-3 hours (depending on how many pallets came my way) loading it back up with everything from PB&J to pudding to fruit snacks. This night something was off, because I smelled something odd coming from one of t

For those that haven't noticed and live in Queens, 71-43 Kissena Boulevard in Flushing is home to a new location!
