GlocknLoad saysWhy are they marked as closed?
Because SF stupidity.
Are the homeless collecting tolls yet, or they pelt your car with feces?
Amazing that home prices are so high for a shithole like SF.
I am personally boycotting all of San Francisco from now on. Not going there, they are not getting my money. At all.
I'll reconsider when they have a conservative city government and put Columbus back on Telegraph Hill.
This is not nothing. Each of us is not nothing. Together, we are a whole lot.
The municipality is going broke. It's going to get ugly like we haven't seen anything yet. Oakland and San Jose are in similar trouble but not as bad as in SF.
They're going to get bailed out, no?
Some high lites from a Forbes article on SF's Civil Service payroll:
Police Chief William Scott earned $434,613 ($338,482 salary and $96,131 benefits). Four assistant chiefs (police and management) received between $346,528 and $445,539. Then, there were 195 employees with pay and perks exceeding $300,000 each.
Sheriff Paul Miyamoto made $357,570 in total compensation. Overall, the sheriff paid out $100,000+ in overtime pay to fifty employees including $315,896 in overtime to a senior deputy sheriff with total comp of $574,595.
The Fire Department had two chiefs last year. Outgoing Chief Joanne Hayes-White retired on a $311,560 annual pension and Chief Jeanine Nicholson replaced her in May 2019.
Last year, Hayes-White received $386,727 and Nicholson received $442,722 in total compensation. However, cash compensation alone is not the full story. The department maintains a $2 million four-bedroom landmark home as the chief’s residence.

Bikeseats are perfectly positioned to cut off your testosteroneAnd probably why Lance Armstrong got testicular cancer.

More likely because Armstrong was doping with probably dozens of steroids and drugs.
Everybody knew Armstrong was doping - anybody that biked anyhow. I doubt there's hardly ANYBODY at the national level that isn't using something to enhance performance - even if they aren't aware of it. Some steroid for muscle pain, some "supplement".
When I was younger, I could maintain 23 MPH for maybe 30 minutes and I was in pretty good shape. They do more than that on average through the Alps. They are nearly inhuman.
That leaves $1,500,000,000,000 to bail out the states and teach gender studies to Pakistanis.
San Francisco’s self-titled “Mr. Clean,” Mohammed Nuru, Public Works Director, is best known for failed efforts to keep feces and hypodermic needles out of the public way.
In 2019, Nuru earned $380,120 in total compensation and his base salary alone spiked $65,000 over eight years. It wasn’t enough, apparently. In February 2020, the FBI arrested Nuru in an alleged porta-potty scandal.
San Francisco’s former public works director, who resigned after being charged in a City Hall corruption case, was arrested Wednesday after allegedly trying to rob someone at knifepoint, authorities said.
Mohammed Nuru, 58, was booked on suspicion of attempted robbery after someone reported being approached by a man around 11:15 a.m. who pulled a knife and demanded the man’s property, according to a police statement.
Nuru was peacefully arrested, police said.
Nuru was working at the San Francisco-Marin Food Bank in the Dogpatch neighborhood, where he is a longtime volunteer, when he approached someone eating potato chips in the break room while holding a kitchen knife, Keely Hopkins, the organization’s communications manager, told KGO-TV.
That person felt threatened and called police, Hopkins said, but nobody was hurt and the other volunteers were sent home.
A message seeking comment from Ismail Ramsey, an attorney who has represented Nuru, wasn’t immediately returned after hours Wednesday.
Nuru resigned his post last year after being charged with fraud and lying to the FBI. Prosecutors allege he took thousands of dollars in gifts and cash from contractors. They also allege that he conspired with a restaurateur in 2018 to bribe an airport commissioner for prime restaurant space at San Francisco International Airport.
Nuru’s case is still in the courts.
In February, a recycling plant owner was sentenced to federal prison after stating in a plea agreement that he plied Nuru with gifts that included a $36,500 gold Rolex watch.
About a dozen people have been charged with corruption in a sweeping City Hall probe. Multiple city department heads have been forced to resign.

San Francisco is best enjoyed as a tourist
I hear you, but if SF is 'irredeemable' what areas of the Bay Area are better?
