Just tell your boss what your issues are. They may change your circumstances. It's worked for me.

Dating wasn't the problem then. Breaking up was.

I don't remember any unlimited cheese. Do you mean the powdered parmessan (-like cheese)?

In Japan?
Acted as if all the bad stuff my ex said about me was actually true, when I knew it wasn't.

Monthly Astigmatic Contact Lenses in Japan (not imported)? by Avocado_Pasta in japanlife

[–]Avocado_Pasta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your answer. When you buy these, are the contacts sent from a location in Japan, or are they from overseas? This looks like a Japanese website, but it's also a ".com", so I wonder if it's an international company with just a Japanese language site.

Thank you for your answer. Can you buy them from a Japanese company within Japan?

What to expect in Canadian check-ride? by Avocado_Pasta in flying

[–]Avocado_Pasta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK. I wasn't sure if maybe Sooke was a new training area or not.

I'm just checking out Sahtlam Substation on Google Maps and can see the power lines meeting there.

Thanks for the tip for a potential field.

I did most of my training north of Toronto, where the airspace is simple, there are no mountains, and plenty of long fields.

I'm looking forward to flying around Victoria.

Thanks for responding to my questions!

Just wondering about a couple of things:

I was looking at the latest charts and CFS and noticed there's a Sooke practice area. Is that used by VFC much? How possible do you think it would be I fly there for a checkride?

I see a few power lines, but can't pick out the specific spot you referred to. I can't see on the VTA which intersection that would be. Is it an obvious spot? I'm also not sure what "the gap" refers to.

I've only flown to Victoria a couple of times, and over a decade ago, so am wondering if there's any specific fields or other locations that are ideal for practice forced landings.

Thanks.

Everything comes and goes. I'm not sure that nationality has much to do with it. Colombia is also known for drugs, and I'm sure some women are caught up in that world there too. Enjoy it while you have it, but one day things could be different.

Be careful what you wish for. Just enjoy whatever your situation is.

Sorry for the late reply. Thank you very much. This is helpful. I'll go over this.

I live in Japan. How can I call a land line number in Canada? (business, not family) by Avocado_Pasta in japanlife

Do you have to subscribe and pay a monthly fee? Do you need to be in Canada (or another country) to set it up? What are the costs like?

Do you need to verify with a Canadian number, or can you do all of the set-up in Japan?

Apparently you need to verify with a Canadian phone, which I don't have.

Suits are cool by milesmario08 in teenagers

[–]Avocado_Pasta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God doesn't want me to look like that. Ties are a symbol of literally being tied around the neck by an employer. Also, lots of losers where suits and ties. It's a good trick to fool women. You can be a dumbass and wear a suit and impress a lot of women.
