Discussion Are undercover cops common driving around late at night?
So I went to the city and came back to Jersey late at night like close to midnight. I didn’t want to come home for personal reasons but as I was walking, I noticed a black suv with police tail lights kept driving around me. I was walking about 3 miles, I had on a hoodie and backpack, and was also kinda drunk, but was just honestly avoiding going home. I wasn’t doing anything illegal. But were they just making sure? Are they gonna get my info if they took pics of me? Question is should I be worried?

Discussion Day date ideas?
My husband and I have 2 under 2 and haven’t been able to have a date night since the first was born since we have no village. We’re going to start prioritizing taking some PTO days just to spend solo quality time together during the day while the kids are in daycare.
So with that - any idea for good day dates on a random weekday? Fun lunchtime restaurants or things to do?

Would appreciate recommendations- food needs to excellent

Discussion Fall/Winter Toddler Fun around Bergen
Hi Bergen friends! With the winter looming and having high energy children, I'm looking to understand some fun (largely indoor) places that the kids can run loose and have fun (she's 2 years old for reference).
Ive jotted down some fun things to do at American Dream Mall, and found Home Depot does free kids workshops on Saturdays.
What other fun things and places are there around Bergen for families similar to what I mentioned?

Business/Company Best gyms in Bergen County?
Hi, 29 year old F looking for a gym in the area before I take a chance on the usual ones. I’m looking for quiet, privacy, cleanliness and a hint of luxury. A safe & comfortable environment is important to me. Classes are fine and I can handle equipment myself as well if needed. I also do work late sometimes so one open late into the evening would be great. All suggestions welcome, thanks in advance!

Anyone have any recommendations for a good mechanic that knows their way around a Toyota 4Runner? I’d like to stay on top of the maintenance and would like to go somewhere I can trust to do things right. As much as I’d like to, I don’t think doing it myself is something I want to learn right now. And I want to avoid a dealership. Thanks in advance!

Event Halloween comedy show and costume contest, Saturday in Hackensack
Howdy Stranger has their annual Halloween improv comedy show 8PM Saturday, October 17 at the Hackensack Performing Arts Center. You can dress up for fun or participate in a costume contest in the middle of the show.
The main event is an improv zombie apocalypse where the audience helps determine who the characters are, where they take shelter, and then you vote on who survives.
Check it out if you want something different to celebrate spooky season without being spooky. It's very funny, and their shows are always family-friendly, but it's improv, so you never know what they'll say or do. Expect a lot of innuendo.
$25 for adults, $15 for seniors and children under 12.

Business/Company Eye doctors?
Are they any eye doctors in western Bergen that don’t charge ridiculous fees? I went to an appointment today and they wanted a copay, a contact fitting fee, and a fee to tell me whether I need glasses. Which is the at least part of the point of going to the doctor, to check your vision. The eye doctor I went to most of my life didn’t even charge a contact lens fitting fee, but I know that’s become ubiquitous, and my eye doctor retired. I refuse to pay to tell me I need glasses, when I know I need glasses, that’s why I’m there.

Business/Company labour laws in Nj question?
I might be wrongfully accused of theft. As I was leaving at the end of my shift, my manager said to me that my bag looked big. However what he doesnt know is that I did shopping at Target before my shift started and also I did some shopping at my work during my break.
He doesnt any evidence because there is none. I didnt shoplift or steal anything but his remarks were very accusatory that I did and I know my workplace has fired people on suspicions without proof or evidence.
Do I have a legal case or can I fight back against this if I am fired under false pretenses in the state of NEW JERSEY? Thank you for any help or advice.
