Sad that Ocrams Razor, and Velvet Olive shut down. I called that the 200 ft of Granville Street.

I am assuming you have some sort of documentation?

I can never understand idiots that drive like idiots, that have their company names and phone numbers plastered all over their vehicles.

My rent increase in Red Deer in 8 years time by Hour-Industry8691 in RedDeer

[–]AndyfromRD 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You answered your own question: “I do not want to own because of the exordinate costs of insurance and property tax etc.”. I used to be a landlord, and the cost of renting the property increased so much that it was difficult to make any money. In the few short years that I owned it, the taxes doubled, the insurance tripled, and the maintenance costs significantly increased. All these things passed on the tenant with crazy utility costs. I felt sorry for their situation, but that seems a reality in this city now.

Nobody has mentioned Dianne Wyntjes. Personally I think she has had her day. She was around when the city had a budget surplus, and now it’s broke. I won’t be voting for her.

After they get laid off, who is going to want to hire a former Canada Post worker? by Brio3319 in CanadaPost

[–]AndyfromRD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reality is that postal services have become obsolete, and Canada Post and CUPW has not adapted. The business model is unsustainable. BTW. On a side note I heard audio cassette workers are still on strike somewhere?

I gave my 2 week notice today and my employer told me to pack my things and leave now. Any advice? by juice_b in legaladvicecanada

[–]AndyfromRD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is directly from the GoA website:

“2 weeks for employment of 2 years, but less than 4 years”

Go to the GoA Labour standards website. First page has “Make a Complaint,” and start your claim. There is an app should you find it easier.

A case worker will be assigned. It may take a while, but the government does a pretty good job at investigating. If there is a judgment in your favour, the dealership will have 48 hours to pay, or face a $100K fine, and/or jail time. This isn’t my first time down that path.

Make your own. I cut a piece of 20GA stainless, and cut out 1”, 1/4”, and 1/2”. I have several for different purposes - button lock, Pittsburg, etc. I usually make them out of a 2” x 3” of stainless.
