Whoever is still being recruited by uber or close to an offer better make sure they have a solid severance clause written into their contract! Nothing less than 1 to 2 years of pay.

Completely agree. SF is starting to see its set of socio-economic and cultural challenges and the situation might get worse before/if it gets better. A city of 800k can not take the bunt of 2M people without there being consequences. Local Govt policies aren't helping either.

Break-ins, cost of labor, homelessness. The plight of SF restaurants is dire and the situation might only get worse. Far cry from what the situation was 20 or so years ago. Companies like cloudkitchens are poised to take advantage of the situation

I pay 7% and the property management takes care of renting out, collections, notices etc. They have a list of contractors to do work but I always seek out multiple bids.
