Hi everyone. Got laid off in December, got my letter from employer saying I am eligible for unemployment and everythin, but actually submitting my claim is now impossible. I have tried to add my most recent employer and always get an error code. Well after three conversations and multiple people at the unemployment office I basically got "we don't deal with error codes, you can try to file again but there is nothing we can do". So what am I supposed to do from here? It was already rough enough being laid off right before Christmas but now I can't get unemployment benefits or even get someone to help me on the phone. Any advice would be great, TYIA

opportunity that would require relocation from florida to columbia, sc. I’ve been in fl my whole life so I feel pretty safe here because I’m used to it. I was looking at columbia, sc news, crimegrade, crime mapping & spot crime. It seems like a really unsafe city to live in compared to where I’ve lived before in Florida. I’m worried to make a big move because i don’t want to live on edge of becoming a victim. There’s been recent shootings and assaults just this week. I know that no where is truly crime free, but this is a super elevated crime rate in my opinion. Lexington seems to be recommended but is also coming up as not very safe.

Are there any locals or people who have lived there between 2022-now that have insight on what it’s like? Do you feel unsafe? Are the crimes and shootings really that bad? What are safe areas to live in that have good apartments? Is public transportation accessible and friendly here?

Hey everyone, what are your thoughts on the University of South Carolina at Beaufort? It looks like it would be $5k for me to attend here out of pocket for this semester and $6.5k in loans. I think that’s pretty manageable. I am curious to know what the community, area, or student life is like. I’m a transfer, junior student studying business. I am debating between going here and being by my mom and the beach or staying in Vegas and potentially going to UNLV paying $1.2k out of pocket and nothing in loans. I could maybe even do online and still come out to SC.

They won’t give me in state tutition yet.

At this point, I’m unsure on what to do. Also, if you saw me post previously debating between Utah and CCU. Turns out neither are going to happen due to both costing about $10k for 4 months AFTER loans!

Should I go to the university president?

What's the best district to teach in? I was looking to relocate from NY to Charleston or blufton SC... I would love to hear all about it, the cost of living is becoming extremely high in NY

Where do you buy it and what brand is it? All I remember is Colonial Store, A&P, Winn-Dixie, and Piggly Wiggly. Jewel's version here in Chicago is very boring. At least they have it, I guess.

Friends,

This is my current map with every record store here in the Palmetto State (broken down by region) - please let me know if I need to add/remove a location or edit anything else. Thanks!

Super sick of overpaying for At&T for my phone service. Does anyone here in SC have Mint Mobile? How's the customer service and phone service down here?? Any good?? Kthxxxoxo

I hope i tagged this properly. Growing up my family always went to myrtle beach. On the way home we would most likely stop at this pizza place in between SC and NC where I lived. I can't find the name or any info on it and it's making me feel crazy lol I know it was a thing. When you'd walk in it would look like a "normal" pizza place but there was a giant pizza with a slice missing that kids could go through and make a small personal pizza and then go play games and play in the little play area. Please someone else has to know what this place was!

Edit: This would be in between south myrtle beach going to asheboro nc.

EDIT 2: I found out what it was finally! It was called east of chicago

The data is really eye opening on how little value is placed on abuse victims and why so many don't speak out...

So i was in a thread where someone asked why would you speak about your Sexual assault on social media and not go to the police and it reminded me of this article I came across about how SC is really lacking on how they handle Sexual assault kits.

So i wanted to do my research and the data is beyond sad and pathetic. This state does not care about women. I just wish people would wake up and maybe think, "hey maybe we should try something different" and yes I'm talking about voting Republican.

"In South Carolina, the average number of days for a sexual assault kit to be picked up by law enforcement from a medical facility is 49 days; the longest is 198 days. In comparison, most other states are within five days or less.

The average number of days for a sexual assault kit to be delivered to a forensic laboratory by law enforcement (after being picked up from a medical facility) is 32 days; the longest is 1,340 days or 3.7 years. The time in the majority of other states is within 30 days.

The average number of days it takes a laboratory to complete the forensic analysis of a sexual assault kit in South Carolina is 457 days; the longest is 2,087 days or 5.7 years. Most other states complete the forensic analysis within 90 days or less.

In addition, SCLAC found South Carolina is only one of six states without a required time frame for any stage of sexual assault kit processing."

Here's the link for further reading if you so desire: https://www.wltx.com/article/news/health/south-carolina-audit-finds-delays-in-sleds-sexual-assault-kit-processing/101-3ea21b7f-70a1-484c-8fcd-b9085009546c

South Carolina is a beautiful state but it really could be so much better. I want to have hope things will improve in this state but sadly I do not and that's why my long term goal is to relocate to another state.

They are quick to move forward with banning books in this state but drag their feet to analyze sexual assault kits. That's why it'll never be about them caring about the well-being of children for me. It's about control.

What if I was 16 and got a ticket when do I get my actual license they say you get it after 180 days of holding your conditional if you have no tickets but I do have a ticket so when do I get my actual license

My wife and I want to take a trip to get away for 3-4 days. Does anyone have any particular suggestions for places like jekyl island, st simons island, dafuskee island, Hilton head island ? Or anything within a 2-4 hour drive.

We’d like to bring our dogs. I know it will probably be cold and low season.

Awesome news!

"Murph, a four-star for 247Sports, carries a rating of 90. He's the No. 42 wide receiver in the class and No. 6 prospect in South Carolina. 

For the industry-generated 247Sports Composite, Murph ranks No. 233 overall and as the No. 30 wide receiver and No. 6 prospect in South Carolina."...

"Murph is a technical route-runner that can draw a high volume of targets and help flip the field. We have seen a lot of wide receivers that have reclassified in recent years  struggle to catch on at the next level, but Murph is physically-advanced for his age and doesn't appear to be tapped out. More notably, the on-field resume speaks for itself with 153 catches for 2,412 yards and 29 touchdowns in 28 career varsity games. He's more of a build-speed athlete at this stage, but he can attack leverage and track the football into the deeper third on fly, post and sluggo routes. Not one that's afraid of contact, either. For South Carolina it's a nice post-Signing Day addition as the Gamecocks continue to try and re-tool the wide receiver room. They need to upgrade at the position and Murph is another incoming freshman that has the skill set to eventually emerge as a trusted option."

Hi so I'm from and live in lexington sc my fiance and I have been talking about possibly moving to the upstate part of SC or possibly NC. I would like advice on areas that are great to live in up there. I'm 29 my fiance is 35 and he is from Georgia originally.

Moving my small family of 4 (2 adults, 2 young toddlers) from South Florida to the upstate SC area. I was wondering what some considerations might be that might not typically come to mind. Whether it be costs, fees, headaches, pros, cons, anything you’d want someone to know before making the leap! Anything you’d could provide would be very much appreciated!

I had a minor accident on NYE and was told I needed to take the FR10 to the DMV. I’ve dealt with this before but they always tell me I didn’t need to bring it in and to just send it to my insurance. Why do they tell us to take it in or else we lose our license?

Hi everyone,

I recently graduated with a BS in CS as a long-time resident of 18 years now (21 currently), and have been looking for opportunities in the area and venturing into the ATL, where I eventually want to move; however, the job market seems sparse for some reason.

I may not see things correctly, as I know it is not a big tech industry like many other parts of the country. However, I am a bit concerned about whether or not it is an opportunity I can seek, or should I aim toward getting an associate degree and work as a technician instead, which I have wanted to do since high school; however, due to parent pressure and homelessness, I had to get a bachelor degree instead to delay my time. Right now, it's the same threat, except for finding a job; even though I already have one working full-time starting next week, it would not pay as well had I not been living at home due to the cost of living expenses.

Any advice? Should I continue job-searching or seek higher education (associate or masters)?

If you are 18 and you go apply for permit do you have to hold it for 180 days.
