My name is Allyson, and I'm new here, but I thought I'd comment since I used
to manage a large public housing development in the state of Rhode Island.
It sounds as though this person may have some mental disability issues.
Lots of times the police know to bring a person like this to a loca
Tara thanks so much for posting about this. I think we all have a lot

Tara,
We at PariSoMa had a small coworker party about a month ago. I knew
pretty much every one there, except there was one tall, balding guy
kind of lurking around that no one knew. He introduced himself as Ryan
and said he was interested in renting a desk from us. I asked him how
he knew about

their officers are free to complete paperwork at your site.

you and your coworkers. It is unfortunate that this guy has no other

Tara,
This is something we almost expect to see once we open our space in
downtown Reno. We have a river that runs through downtown and there

I would check in with the community affairs division of the San Francisco

Tara,
I actually meant to call you before I left town 2 weeks ago. I had
just spoken with Eddie, and lo and behold Ryan was at the space that

Folks,
being in SF, I've seen this problem over and over in the past 5 years
at my space. As a human being, you have to balance your desire to be
compassionate with the need to run a business. Folks who are homeless
and/or jobless or suffering from substance abuse, will frequently
gravitate to
Thanks Dawn,
When asked these questions (and we've asked many to fine out more), he
doesn't speak up. He just stares defiantly. I think he may be

Tara,
Given the economy, your situation might not be that unusual. I work out of
several locations in NYC- some public and some private- and I've seen more
than my share of folks that remind me of RC. Due to the size of most of the
locations, only regulars might have noticed somewhat odd behaviors
