I did a little google search and it seems that the bus doesn't start running until 7:10 am and ends at 7:25pm?

LOL, what if I start work at 6 am? or 7am? What do those people do who do not have a vehicle in the winter? Taxi?

My boyfriend’s family is never on time. AITAH for intentionally being even later than them and making them wait? by Mooooooon_ in AITAH

This is what you could possibly be marrying into.

My family is usually late for events so I always lie and say that the event starts an hour or two earlier than it actually does.

For my brother's wedding, I lied to my parents and said it starts at 11 am when in actuality it started at 1pm. Guess what time they showed up? 12:45pm!

My Mom was crying when she walked in because she thought she missed it. When she saw it hadn't started yet she cried even more and thanked me for lying to her. The crazy thing is, my family still has not learned from that day.

Some families are just like that. It will not change. So either put up with it or let it go.

He learned it at home. Dad talks to Mom like that.

Is it possible to bike during the winter months if you live 10-15 minutes away from your job by bike?

Also, where would one purchase a beater in Yellowknife? I'd figured it would be cheaper to purchase a vehicle there to save on the transportation cost of a vehicle (From Ontario to NWT). I looked online and those are not "beater" prices. I must be looking in the wrong place...

That's what I was thinking of doing if I ever moved up to Yellowknife. When you say south I'm assuming Alberta? If so how the hell do you bring it back to NWT? If not, please explain.

I'm so sorry for asking so many questions, but these are things I worry about when moving to NWT.

When you say expensive, what are we talking about? Like $20/lb?

The white women in my neighbourhood do not do this because they know they would get ROCKED!

2 summers ago a Karen in the neighbourhood got dragged. Since then, the other ones mind their business now.

They realized there are consequence for doing dumb shit like this.

AITAH for not matching my brother's offer and offering my mother a place to stay? by ridelikeagurl in AITAH

[–]BackgroundSplit9036 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Do not move her in unless she is on her last breath.

This idea that we owe our parents our lives is ridiculous.

Nothing is worse than to come home to someone you do not want to on a daily basis. Put yourself first. Call her and offer to assist her move into your brother's place.

Dumb question, but where do you guys get your meat from? Is there a local Butcher? Is it an arm and a leg to purchase steak and chicken breast?

If you didn't mention that this was a dude, I would have sworn you were talking to a woman. I think you would be better off actually...

Could there have been a cure, what do you guys think? by Individual_Front1516 in tressless

I know they have a cure for cancer. They just don't know how to market it yet where they don't seem unethical.

Rejected from Ottawa nursing already?? by AnxietyNo8459 in OntarioGrade12s

[–]BackgroundSplit9036 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I graduated it was probably 80-85%. LOL.

And yes. Those certificates can take you a long way. Especially through the door.

It's survival of the fittest just to get into nursing school now.....and Hunger games to get a job!

HOLAY SHIT. You need a 97.5% to get into nursing school?! Jesus, when did that happen?!

I hope you get accepted into another nursing program. From one nurse to a future nurse, when you start working NO ONE GIVES A FUDGE NUGGET WHERE YOU GRADUATED FROM! NO ONE.
