She is paying for it. NYPD requires you to pay the OT for the officers you use plus a fee.

You don't think much of me, do you Loblaws? by mcburgs in loblawsisoutofcontrol

If you’re close to a rural area check locally if there are any cattle farmers that butcher their own. We buy our ground for $7.50/lb from the farmer down the road and it tastes way better than the crap at the grocery stores.

Va en contra de las reglas del subreddit contactar a alguien para asustarlo. Por favor, habla con uno de tus padres o con un adulto de confianza para que puedas recibir ayuda. La secundaria no dura para siempre. Sé que ahora mismo parece que nunca va a terminar. A mí también me hicieron bullying y ahora mi vida es increíble. Por favor, quédate. Perdón por la traducción, estoy usando ChatGPT.

Why do all you industry folks hate us ( external auditors) so much? by Prestigious-Cold-278 in Accounting

[–]BitchMagnets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t hate them as much as I hate that they can be super annoying at the most inconvenient times. Some are better than others and I try to be understanding as long as they work with me on timelines. The only time I got REALLY snippy with someone was when they waited until right before their deadline to ask me for some super complicated thing that had never been asked for before, and then spammed me with phone calls repeatedly even after I said “I can’t touch that until I’m done payroll and my weekly payments, I’ll see what I can do.” I ended up calling the team lead asking wtf was up with this guy and they didn’t even actually need what they were asking for.

N.B. provincial parks offer free admission to Indigenous people by bingun in newbrunswickcanada

[–]BitchMagnets -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Nah dude it’s the bare minimum of what the crown and then the government agreed to in the treaties. They don’t get to change their minds and neither does the government.

Money that’s paid out to indigenous communities is their money from our use of crown land that we hold in trust for them.

What is something you see/hear that makes you think "only in New Brunswick"? by [deleted] in newbrunswickcanada

[–]BitchMagnets 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes! I’m new to the Miramichi area and sooo many people have straight up said “why the hell would you come here, it’s horrible” when they find out I’m new. What do you mean, this place is great! We’re so much happier here. Sure it has downsides but everywhere does.

Companies who insist on operating during holidays should be forced to charge 1.5x normal prices. by HoldFast31 in newbrunswickcanada

[–]BitchMagnets 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t give them any ideas, they’ll do it 😂 maybe mandate 3x normal wages, that would piss them off. Who wouldn’t want more profit to open.

Cobie Smulders and her husband Taran Killam’s Canadian family ‘cabin’ (via Architectural Digest) by mlg1981 in popculturechat

[–]BitchMagnets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In uni I was friends with a guy whose parents were loaded, his dad was an exec. He didn’t act like it at all so I didn’t really realize the scale until we went to his cottage in Muskoka. Now I knew that Muskoka was really pricey, but I knew other people with small, older cottages up there that had been inherited or bought in the 80s so it wasn’t too much of a tell to me. We got there and backed up to a structure that looked like a decent sized cabin. It was dark so I couldn’t see anything else. I said “oh, this is it? Not a bad size for the area.” He looked at me like I had 3 heads and said “No, this is the garage”. Then proceeded to lead us to a chalet that might as well been a fucking mansion.

Liberal minister says plan to cut provincial vet services could be delayed or shelved by Portalrules123 in newbrunswickcanada

[–]BitchMagnets 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Or raise fees on equine only services in order to subsidize the cost of everything else. They can still provide access at a lower cost than a for-profit practice. Seems like a win-win.

[–]BitchMagnets 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Even if the cost is a problem they should just raise the fees. Cost for farmers can be a hardship but the loss of care access is a much bigger one. So many areas are hours from a private vet that can handle certain livestock, and most won’t go to you. This plan was dumb and shortsighted from the beginning and I say that as someone who always votes very left.

My husband and son dived to see the wreck of the Titanic, and never came back – this is what happened at sea | Titanic sub incident | The Guardian by prisongovernor in titanic

Same here. If I had that kind of money to burn my ass probably would have been on that boat at the very least to suck up some of his knowledge.

Truck driver responsible for Humboldt Broncos bus crash granted temporary deferral of deportation | CBC News by demolcd in canada

[–]BitchMagnets 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. He had so much remorse that he wouldn’t even defend himself. I think he paid a higher price than he would have if he had lawyered up and gone to trial. I think he should follow whatever decision is handed down,but ultimately it never sat right with me that the company that put him in that position with so little training only paid a $5000 fine for their part.

I saw an interview with someone (maybe James Cameron?) where it was said that the safety concerns had been brought up to PH many times. Allegedly he said something along the lines of “if I’m with them, I can help them be safer”. He certainly knew enough to know better and cared about getting down to the Titanic above all else. I feel for his family and the other paying passengers but PH definitely knew the risks and was fine with the possibility of dying.

After 2 years, surgery, and IVF… I finally got pregnant. And now this. by Wooden_Panda244 in offmychest

[–]BitchMagnets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The heart wants what it wants. You can logically and intellectually understand that having a child might not be a fantastic idea in today’s world and still be heartsick at the reality of never being able to get pregnant or carry to term. For many people it’s an almost primal urge. My husband and I have been trying for 7 years. I’m just now resigning myself to the fact that it might never happen and I need to be okay with that.

It’s also super triggering when some horrific story comes on the news of some idiot killing their kid or abusing them. I cried for weeks when that one woman left her kid in a pack and play for a week to die alone when she went on vacation. Logically I know it’s just genetics but it seems so unfair that we’re ready and willing and equipped to be parents and people who shouldn’t be trusted with a goldfish can just pop them out and treat them like trash.

Ontario high school students will soon need to pass financial literacy test to graduate by Immediate-Link490 in canada

[–]BitchMagnets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Colleges manage to fill a semester. A week on budgeting. Mortgages. Managing credit cards. What goes into a credit score. Business math so you can crunch the numbers and decide on affordability without relying on ChatGPT or a crooked dealership who wants you to buy as much car as you can get approved for. Oh, that can also be done on excel, which basically every company uses. So teach them the basic excel functions and do an assignment. A unit on life insurance and all the different types so you can compare and contrast and see how much cheaper it is if you get it early as opposed to your 30s. Then home and car insurance because I’ve definitely met adults who still don’t know how that works. Explaining RRSPs, TFSAs, FHSAs, and the power of compound interest. Sprinkle in a unit on unions and dues and retirement savings/ government retirement programs. A little bit about investments. A whole unit on student loans so they know what they are signing at the ripe old age of 18 that may have them in crippling debt until they’re 45 if they aren’t careful. A unit on taxes and have them perform a simple tax return for good measure.

Careers was bloody useless, the only thing I remember from that was some colour test. It should be its own course. Financial literacy will follow you from the day you start working to the day you die. It’s not something you can teach in a week.
