To all the people who were left locked outside last year like the cat in those Flintstones cartoons: please don’t repeat performance this year too.
Don’t even try ordering UBER/Panda.
I live in one of those areas. This is the notice posted in my building, but I still don’t understand what’s going to happen during that extra 30 minutes.
