First of all this is NOT a post to dox anyone. Let’s not do that please.

I’m just wondering if lately anyone has seen that guy who usually rips around English bay like a total asshat on his sea-doo? I saw him regularly but ever since that incident a few months back where some rider hit a whale, it’s been very quiet in English bay.

Has anyone seen the specific guy who rips around like a jerk lately? Or has English bay been saved?

99 bus drivers

Discussion

Do these people not realize there are people STANDING on their bus? I’ve never met a group of such heavy footed drivers in my life. Every 99 bus ride, I’m struggling to stand up every time they stop. Do these people not realize they are transporting people in a moving vehicle who are not strapped in? Are these people trained at all?

r/cats•

Hi all, I just adopted two cats (bonded pair) from a rescue. They are about three years old.

I’m losing my mind the last few days with lack of sleep because one of them has been digging in the litter box literally all night every night. My house is small and I can’t escape that sound and I’m not sure what to do at this point. Here is the situation

When they were adopted, the SPCA said they had some loose stool probably due to stress. It’s been a week of having them and they still have loose stool. they are on a special gastro diet, but not sure how much that’s helping. For the first three nights, the one cat didn’t dig at all, just used the box normally. Ever since Saturday, he spends a g

I’m 34, living in Vancouver Canada. Currently a software developer but I’m getting sick of the constant threat of offshoring and AI taking our work. I’m watching in real time as my colleagues get cut and cannot find any work for over a year, meanwhile all companies are hiring like mad in India to replace us.

I do not have a degree, and I current make $85,000/y

I’ve always been into flying, my dad was a flight attendant and I am obsessed with flight sim games. So I’ve been thinking… maybe I’ll just take my savings and become a pilot instead. At 34 years old, is this a bad idea?

I know pay won’t be amazing at first, but what would I realistically be looking at for a timeline of training, po

r/Evri•

First tile I had something delivered by them through amazon, the order said it will arrive in 3 days. The next day after delivery they show up at my door and leave a slip (I was home, they didn’t even knock) saying it was their third delivery attempt and they are returning to sender.

How can it be the third attempt when I ordered it the day before??? Anyways I had to get a refund from amazon.

Now, I ordered something from the US and was really bummed to see when Evri was the carrier again. Anyways, I set my delivery to an Evri locker so they didn’t pull the same shit again.

Lo and behold, the order sits with random updates of “at local depot” then “out for delivery” then “at local depo

International work and EI

:22px-Flag_of_British_Col:British Columbia

I’ve worked for a multinational company for three years. Recently, I was transferred to the UK for one year to help with the teams there. My role has been suspended in Canada (I even got my vacation paid out) and I was hired by the UK division. I’m being paid in pounds, to a UK account, by a completely different payroll.

Now, I’m noticing they are starting to gut the Canadian division. I have a feeling that when I return to Canada next year, my role may cease to exist. (Just guess, we are hiring everyone in India instead)

My question is, since I haven’t worked for a Canadian company for a year, will I still be eligible for EI from my previous years of work? If they just decide not to hir

Hello, I’m moving from Canada to London soon. I’m trying to get a property asap and found something great for me. The issue is I have a 12 month contract in the UK (my company I’ve been working for for 3 years so far is transferring me for one year) and need to return back to Canada in one year.

The landlord states they want a 24 month contract. The rental agent stated I can add a break clause that will let me break the agreement at 12 months. Is this legally binding? Am I safe to do this? I don’t want to be stuck with a contract I cannot break when I must leave the country.

Here is the break clause they give me:

“There is no provision for the Landlord to terminate this agreement befo
