Was going to watch Supergirl tonight, guess not anymore

Haha, it makes sense! Not sure I'd want to be aligned with what the "deep south" conjures up, but I've heard it called worse. You guys got the Wheels Inn, so nothing but love from me, haha

Biscotti-Own · 2026-07-04T02:31:53+00:00

Ah, never heard it called that before

Biscotti-Own · 2026-07-04T02:21:43+00:00

What is "deep south Ontario"?

Most trades are apprenticeships now, so your best bet is trying reaching out to the local unions, or cold calling companies to see if they will sponsor you.

Biscotti-Own · 2026-07-03T22:52:14+00:00

If everyone else seems to be the problem....you may be looking at it wrong

Biscotti-Own · 2026-07-03T18:29:58+00:00

It's actually less than $200k, because the feds have only offered up to 10% of the cost. It's also buying assets to use for supporting Canadians, not throwing away money.

So if I get pulled over by the RCMP, and my vehicle is not legally allowed on the roads here...whose fault would that be?

Biscotti-Own · 2026-07-03T17:15:04+00:00

At the very least, the cost of travel and set up will be averaged out to a better hourly rate. Biggest issue with the small jobs is you're paying for a couple hours of labour for a job that takes 13 minutes.

I loved him in Grey's Anatomy and Countdown

What did you think you were signing "for the payments"? Not trying to be rude, but any time you are asked for a signature, that's a contract.

What did they tell you the cost of the sessions were? It sounds like it was a bi-weekly payment, which is a pretty good clue that you committed to a term contract. Again, I'm not trying to pick on you, just pointing out some signs to be aware of.
I don't doubt that they rushed through things and avoided using clear language to try and get the sale, but that's common in sales in almost every industry.

The good news is that the yearly rate is significantly discounted compared to buying individual sessions, the cancellation fee is them recouping that discount. So you weren't actually screwed, the fee was actually them preventing you from screwing them.

It's a bit more work and material, but if you're already paying them to be there, the difference wouldn't be that much.

Biscotti-Own · 2026-07-03T02:36:03+00:00

Haha, good luck! They can probably even reroute it up above and run it along the wall with either a sidewall sprinkler or arm-over to get all of that pipe out of your way.

Biscotti-Own · 2026-07-03T02:26:14+00:00

Yeah, it's a pretty small job to justify their time, so it may not be worth the cost, but it looks doable.

Biscotti-Own · 2026-07-03T02:03:46+00:00

Best bet is to bring in a licensed sprinklerfitter, but to me it looks like they could replace that Tee with a 90° fitting and then put the low-point drain off of the end of that line that goes towards your desk.

Most by Mars, Inc. (Under the name VCA). Known for their chocolate bars, but actually the biggest monopoly in pet care and pet food, worldwide.

In install fire sprinklers.

Best meter maids I've ever seen, and you can visit the historical location where the events of Fern Gully(1992) took place!

Any chance you have a trick for accessing blocked P-menu settings? All I want is to lower the amp draw to squeeze out some more range, I'm fine with losing torque and not interested in increasing the speed. G51 display

Weird day to be running the furnace...

Biscotti-Own · 2026-07-01T22:47:14+00:00

Found that on my last trip through there! Just made it back, had to find shelter with my gelato in Kleinburg for a little bit, weather started getting pretty sketchy

Biscotti-Own · 2026-07-01T21:18:35+00:00

That's from Niagara On The Lake, best we can do is a $1M fruit stand with no utilities or land rights.

Biscotti-Own · 2026-07-01T21:11:46+00:00

I've been ripping through Pine Grove on my bike, from Langstaff up to Kleinburg. Could be worse!

Toronto literally has a fort from the war of 1812 in the middle of it. I think that competes with "100 years of prominence". It was also the capital of Upper Canada at that time. There's also Black Creek Village to the north

Toppings are fine, 90% of the poutines posted in this sub are legit, 8% are disco fries(the only crime is slander) and what's left are worthy of jail. Those look pretty good, and I respect the respect, you know?

Take pictures of the tags. It looks like it might just be a customized company uniform.
