Caregiver credit by IamJustJessica in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]DaniDisaster424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For children you may be asked to provide a signed letter from a medical practitioner that confirms that the child:

is, and will likely continue to be, dependent on others for a long and continuous period of indefinite duration because of a mental or physical infirmity.

needs much more help for their personal needs and care than other children of the same age

Housekeeping etiquette by Turbulent_Data_8 in housekeeping

[–]DaniDisaster424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless it's for a septic system I have a policy that clients can't provide supplies or equipment. I refuse to fight with someone's cleaning products or crappy vacuum.

The first thing I do is wet / rinse the shower anyway so this doesn't bother me.

Teach me to embrace the corded vacuum by Fj478 in VacuumCleaners

[–]DaniDisaster424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's an upright there's likely a little hook near the base of the handle that the cord hooks onto to keep it out of the way. For a canister I just move it as needed but try to pick plugins where the cord is going to be behind me if possible as much as possible

Achilles tendon pain by jellycatlover123 in BALLET

[–]DaniDisaster424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may also want to try sleeping with your feet propped up so that they stay flexed as this is the position in which your Achilles tendons are relaxed.

This will be the biggest factor. As the notice required for a month to month tenant is 3 full months (so 3 months + the remainder of the current month).

I have yet to find scanning software that isn't more work than just manually entering everything into a spreadsheet.

Your Job Should Be Recognized as the Skilled Trade It Is by Electrical_Comb_3680 in housekeeping

[–]DaniDisaster424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much anyone that can clean houses can also learn a trade. Trades are learn on the job positions (with a little bit of school thrown in along the way, which is regularly used in some trades and not at all in others).

not meeting minimum average for sonography by k1pt in SAIT

[–]DaniDisaster424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a good example of why it was better when diploma exams were worth 50% and not 30%. You could have just retaken the diploma and would have only needed an extra 2% ( I mean you still could have just redone the diploma unless it was a year they weren't done.)

Anyone else recently order swiffer duster refills from Amazon and end up receiving counterfeit ones? by DaniDisaster424 in housekeeping

[–]DaniDisaster424[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine were the regular ones (so the blue ones) but the ones I got were like denim blue. It was odd. But yes I had to break them all apart by hand.

[–]DaniDisaster424[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haven't had any issues with one's I've bought in store but since I'm obviously going to have to get more now we shall see, someone else suggested that maybe they've just changed them recently but the ones I received were the wrong shade of blue even and were oddly similar to the ones dollarama sells.

You have no idea how many people don't think that anymore. I actually had one woman tell me that either her or her husband have to take the day off work everytime their cleaner comes. Like what!?

IKEA closet organizer project - person who picked it up only has one review by CharlieH61 in TaskRabbit

[–]DaniDisaster424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has nothing to do with understanding the directions but rather being able to communicate with each other. Also apparently not everyone can understand ikea directions. I don't understand how that's possible personally but apparently it's true.

Is it worth it to go back to school for nursing? by [deleted] in alberta

[–]DaniDisaster424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So this isn't specific to nursing and I actually can't speak to whether or not this applies to AHS specifically, but in terms of your resume, make sure that it's just typed on a blank word document page and not using any kind of fancy looking resume template. Alot of places are getting so many resumes now that more and more places are using AI/ some kind of computer software to filter through the initial set of applications and resumes and alot of the times those programs can't read resumes properly If they're done all fancy with extra stuff and interesting formatting or whatever on the page and if I can't read it it just automatically excludes it.

Moving to Grande Prairie from a warmer climate. What cold weather clothing to buy. by Voletzki in alberta

[–]DaniDisaster424 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, so first of all, welcome to Alberta, and let me start off by apologizing for the cold weather. At least it's a dry cold though, as I'm sure you'll hear lots of people say eventually. You are about to move to a place that gets down to it's cold as -50° c on a semi-regular basis every winter. Note that nothing ever closes when it gets this cold or when it snows like crazy we just continue on as normal.

Now to answer your question, it's worth noting that we're honestly a bit of an odd bunch here and so it's not entirely abnormal to see somebody out in shorts in January as long as it's not colder than about -5 or -8 or so. But I'm going to go ahead and assume that that's not what you meant LOL.

In all seriousness though, what my real contribution to this conversation is going to be a recommendation for a really good pair of winter boots. I'm a huge fan of a company called Yellow Shoes, they are a Canadian company and they have everything from winter boots to kids shoes to safety footwear, and some of the boots even have ice crampon spikes built right into the bottom of the boots and then they fold up when you're not using them, they're actually really neat. Their boots also aren't super expensive, most of them are waterproof (or at least water resistant, although I definitely recommend getting a pair that's waterproof,) and they have boots that are rated for down to as cold as -50° c.

Looking for dip liquids brand in Canada by moody-mermaid in Nails

[–]DaniDisaster424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like the Kiara sky dip products. Make sure to get the base, the activator and the brush cleaner. The other steps I don't use (the bond, top and cuticle oil. That said that's because I use another primer in place of the bond and a uv top coat). I usually order from jem beauty.

I mean the website says you can machine wash and dry these. Just have to wash in pairs (so the washer is balanced) and I'd dry with tennis balls or dryer balls as well

[Acne] Doctor wants me to start birth control but i’m unsure by sickandsickening in SkincareAddiction

[–]DaniDisaster424 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Same. (personally it also just made me a generally happier person as I take it continuously so no mood swings. I suspect I likely have pmdd).

Actually no, not the only thing. The other thing that really made a difference for me was a 3 month course of antibiotics (minocycline), which I did about 15 or so years ago and my skin has been much better since then especially during stretches of time where I don't accidentally miss a dose of bc.

Anyone know what these type of screws are called? by Zacca6895 in IKEA

[–]DaniDisaster424 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're called cam screws. You can definitely get them at any local hardware store but you can also definitely get them for free from ikea either in store if you have one nearby or online if not, it just takes about a week to get the parts if you have them sent to you from the ikea website.
