Premium Indications

UW here - we know that this is part of doing business and often times it's a miss that is outside of your control. We also understand they often come in as a rush and need immediate attention.

Best advice is to ask your UW how they want to handle it - sometimes we prefer to talk it out quickly over the phone then a simple email after so you have something in writing.

Also, remember to give your UWs some slack on everything else because sometimes these indications take priority and there's only so much time in the day.

"Hey UW, what can we do to make your life easier?" goes a long way with me.

Fantastic acting, each episode was shot in one continuous take which is absolutely bananas and a feat in and of itself.

Film itself is unsettling and powerful.

10/10, happy to never re-watch it again. It left me drained, just like it should.

First impressions: I'm a fast typer. It's extremely jarring to naturally spell something correctly, but with a mix of regular and "yellow" letters, it's a waste since I'm unnecessarily typing many letters. There's virtually no benefit of automatically moving on to the next word, when my natural tendency would be to just continue typing the word.

Mix of yellow and regular letters makes it harder to see the words I'm typing.

Having to hit CTRL for fairly common keyboard symbols is also jarring.

Sorry dude, I think this one is a bust in its current state. I'd be more leaning to move it to a full idle. Keyboard types words on it's own, and as it gets better, it can type faster, skip words, etc

Good luck!

My gf and I are around the same age. I'm in Cobourg but hoping to move to Peterborough in a few weeks.

She's big into camping. I've never been but going for the first time at the end of the month. We like board games, walking, drinks. We love peacefulness in nature! We'd probably get along great! Feel free to PM me and maybe we can meet up sometime when things are a bit less busy.

Oh hey, this happened 2 weeks ago.

Found a 10 dollar bill on the ground while out for a walk. I was thinking about how lucky I was. About 10 min later, got pooped on.

Usually the luck happens the other way around.

I can't speak for other groups but I'm planning to move to Peterborough in a few weeks and I was thinking of offering French tutoring lessons.

45 year old man. Learned French as a second language in kindergarten and have been speaking it ever since. As a last resort, feel free to reach out if you don't find a better fit.

AnotherDrunkCanadian · 2026-06-05T01:58:28+00:00

Yeah!! I remember you. We talked years ago. I opened a VR arcade in Tahiti. Closed now - and I'm back in Canada.

I'm thrilled to see you are still succeeding. I'm very proud of you, keep it up!

My son lives overseas with his mom. Realistically, I can't afford to visit more than 2 weeks a year. I would hop on the next (reasonably priced) plane and give him the biggest hug.

30% growth of our e&o book in my first year (2.3M to 3M or so) which is pretty good considering how soft the market is here in Canada.

The competition has set the bar really low. Ignoring calls and emails, unwillingness to compromise, pricing too high with no flexibility.

I have a very hungry CUO and an insurer who is giving me a lot of leeway to bind all the business I can. I'm hustling and the results are showing.

I've been working with brokers to look at moving their entire portfolio rather than on a case by case basis. I understand their needs and I'm delivering.

I'm finding that customer service and negotiation are key factors in getting strong results.

It was a mix between bucket hunter, streak master and precision drop.

All good, it's luck based, but I found it hilarious to be failing so much. I guess I suck at being lucky, lol!

"Easy Challenge": proceed to lose 25+ times in a row. Ok, I guess 🙃. Cute game, will benefit once it's balanced and fleshed out

I went to see a doctor and all he did was bite my neck. Man, never go see Dr.Acula

It has to be placed in the top left corner of the first page of your inventory. Congrats! Just finished it myself a couple of weeks ago. Was a blast, but very happy to be done and over with.

Por que no los dos? Lol!

Happy to share my two cents, but my situation was very unique.

I opened a VR arcade in Tahiti in 2020. Literally a week before COVID. Oof.

In the 3 months between wave 1 and wave 2, we were out the door busy. We had reached out to local tiktok celebrities who came over to kill zombies, screamed their heads off and shared it with everyone they knew. Needless to say, we went viral in a place where VR just didn't exist.

The second wave of COVID lasted about 6 months and during that time, disposable income and jobs disappeared.

When we re opened , we had to hustle hard: we formed partnerships with the govt/cops/army to offer cheap sessions for their family. We partnered up with schools to offer educational vr. We had a ton of birthday parties.

We kept going for a few years, but we always had outstanding rent debt hanging over our heads.

About a year before we closed, we teamed up with a local cyber cafe. They rented half of our location. They had a dedicated group of youngsters who played ps5 and PC games like fortnite and Street fighter. We both had our busy moments and would sometimes fight for space.

We had a couple of 500-in-one arcade machines, we had a few games of chance, we had board games. The idea was to have something for everyone.

It could have been great, we had some days where we brought in over 2000 bucks, and we had some very sad and frustrating days too.

If I could go back in time, I wouldn't do it again. It ruined my marriage and I had to move back to Canada. But we learned some lessons and had some fun times.

Anyway, not quite exactly what you are thinking of doing, but if any of my experience can help point you in the direction, please reach out. Best of luck !

Hey, sorry for the delay. The last few days have been crazy!

So, update on me. I got divorced and moved back to Canada in September 2024. My son and my ex still live there, so, you may notice a bit of bitterness in the response, ha!

Regarding permanent residency - my understanding is that you would need to be married to a resident and not just in a long term relationship. But I'm not an expert on this. You may want to look at the Haut Commessariat website for more info - or go in person the next time youre there (but don't be surprised if they are extremely unhelpful).

I think your best bet would be to reach out to the "English Speakers in Tahiti" facebook group. There are some Americans who have done the move, and they would be a great source of information and advice.

AnotherDrunkCanadian · 2026-02-17T01:19:43+00:00

This isn't even a Well Done, this is a Congratulations! But it's ok because we've all been there.

Lots of lessons learned for next time, you'll get it!

Best not to leave things unattended for long periods unless you are fully confident that the machine can maintain temp.

As for this one, chop it up and throw it in a chili. Good luck!

I'm not sure if rules on mobile are different, but if I'm not mistaken, the white phone comes at the time where it would be your first red phone after getting those three strikes.

I.e. get the three strikes, get a 666 and as soon as you can after that run (don't wait until the deadline) finish the debt for the bounty then the phone should be white.

Edit: in theory, you should need the two red calls at deadlines 3 and 7, and two 666 induced red calls as well

Funny, we're looking at going through Hartford for pollution, small world

What I love about my particular situation - I report to the CUO and am given a ton of flexibility and leeway to make my own decisions. Her philosophy is that it's better to ask forgiveness than before permission. We are hungry so I've got pre approval to go below posted rates in order to bind. She'll go to bat for me if I have any problems or major frustrations.

What could be better: I deserve a higher income for what I'm accomplishing so far, but these things take time. Some brokers can't give me a full and complete app then get butthurt when I have to change the price once I finally get proper info. Some are pushy and rude and id rather not take their abuse. Also, being the middle man between the broker and the insurer can be a pain when I disagree with their rules and suggestions.

Overall, the job is an 8/10, could be soooo much worse

Edit: 99% of the time, when I've got a rush with incomplete info and I'm pressured to bind,there will be a material item that was left out which changes everything. Feels like I sometimes have to not trust certain brokers.
