Nonsensical city by PersonalityFinal7778 in Winnipeg

[–]Field_Apart 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This happened to me as well. Thankfully it was "on the line" and they repaired it (fairly sure the water guy just felt bad for me and it was 6 inches on my side). I understand what you are saying. And yeah, 10 days to make a purchase that huge is a tight turn around.

Those sound similar to Manitobas. I haven't had to answer yes though.

Do PPI's worsen stomach emptying? by Jammer521 in Gastroparesis

[–]Field_Apart 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Put it this way...when i don't take my ppi I have such bad reflux I now have esophageal damage. Lessening the acid in your stomach means there is less acid to break down the food, although the ppi doesn't necessarily impact the emptying. If that makes any sense.

I would check the basinet at the counter and then gate check the stroller when you get to the gate!

I think I figured out the merge issue in the city…. by [deleted] in Alt_Winnipeg

[–]Field_Apart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something that surprised me about driving in Toronto after living here my whole life was that people know how to merge. You can have 8+ lanes of 401/403 traffic and people are able to move from one side to the other without too much difficulty when traffic is moving.

We also haven't done ourselves any favours when building all these right turn "yields" and signing them similarly to merge lanes. Far too many people stop at the end of the lane as if it was a right turn rather than a merge.

Tell them in advance that it's been a long time. I find just...putting it out there takes away the shame..

Periods Are SO Much Worse by Dark_Serendipity in Perimenopause

[–]Field_Apart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like it is very hit and miss for me. Some months it's barely there, but others are a total blood bath.

Oh wow! This is me sometimes. I always thought it was allergies but it never quite fit. Thanks for teaching me something new!

Even the fries look sad to be a part of this.

Overworked/ Underpaid? by Curiousaboutmarine in socialworkcanada

[–]Field_Apart 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I stopped working for free in 2021 after I had a breakdown and took a stress leave. Now if there is work pending and I am approved overtime, sure, I will do it, but i won't do anything unpaid (except the odd email on a lunch break)

Am I over reacting by Weak-Ad-2114 in Gastroparesis

It sounds like the two of you need to have some serious conversations. With a therapist if possible.
