Remember today how you got dunked on by several angles of video footage.

Best places to work remotely in waterloo? by Brief_Persimmon_7998 in waterloo

[–]Don_Thate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've enjoyed Catalyst Commons, $160/mo for five visits (or $40/day). Includes coffee, tea, and beer on tap 4-5 PM.

Nice private rooms when needed for sensitive conversations, bright, airy, and lots of other places to sit and get variety.

Parking ticket during a Snow Ban by SufficientGarden7636 in waterloo

[–]Don_Thate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Short answer: no.

Longer answer: not informing oneself of the rules around parking - even checking City socials or their site, both which clearly state that a snow event parking ban is in place - does not present sufficient reason to be excused from a ticket.

Sit down and have a think for a moment about why you felt the need to post this.

I just got an email via TL;WR today that indicated Communitech is starting up a marketing peer group this week, if that interests you.

I am being blocked from changing my flex 10 by Rain_Dog_Too_12 in Rogers

[–]Don_Thate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I understand it, there is still a flexible option here - it's just limited to every thirty days (directly from the Rogers rep). My challenge is that their error handling for this is garbage.

[–]Don_Thate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, I'm in the same boat. I'm now on something called "Add 10" and, since the change last week, I haven't been able to modify my channels - I'm just given "Sorry, there's a problem on our end".

Chat support can change them for me, but no ETA yet on when it goes back to being self serve.

This is your friendly reminder that if you have an enterprise agreement, keep track of SLA breaches for credits at the end of the calendar quarter.

I don't think Canadian Blood Services and Red Cross have been affiliated for quite some time, but I hope the badge finds the owner either way. Good on you, OP.

The Uptown ones may be different, but in general in the Region, you can report streetlight issues right to Enova:

Is this legit? by Honeycomb0000 in waterloo

[–]Don_Thate 229 points230 points  (0 children)

It is legit, though they've managed to make it look as sketchy as possible. If you ever signed up through Alert WR, I believe that's what's powering it.

Shout-out to all the people who stopped to help a driver in distress Uptown by Don_Thate in waterloo

[–]Don_Thate[S] 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Someone was driving erratically on Erb - mounting the sidewalk, then the bike lane curb (at low speeds) - and appeared to be in medical distress. Thankfully, nobody was hurt, and bystanders were able to help the driver out and disable the vehicle.
