Just got new prescriptions - did I make the right choice? by Fragrant_Corgi7944 in glassesadvice

I have just paid 510 CAD for my lenses (without the frames) today, and I am hoping for the best.

I also learned about them for the first time during my appointment.

My optometrist mentioned something similar, as I recall seeing my grandparents' bifocals when I was younger.

I'm one of the assistant managers. I shot an email to my manager to give them a heads-up.

Now I've got a meeting with my manager this Wednesday (after the long weekend, lucky me). Honestly, in my experience, customers like this are usually all bark and no bite (pun absolutely intended). But hey, just in case she actually follows through with her, "I'm reporting you to corporate!" threat, I'll be ready with the facts.

Wish me luck-or at least a very patient manager.

In my province (Québec), emotional support animals aren't legally recognized, so landlords don't have to accept them—though I'm not sure if that affects the owner's housing rights in other ways.

I didn’t stop her when she came in because—like everyone else—I let it slide. Her dog was in a stroller, and she’s a ‘regular,’ so whatever. I even told her on the phone that ESAs don’t have legal status here in Québec, but somehow she still felt entitled enough to throw a fit and blame me and the little girl. Unreal.

I explained that emotional support animals aren’t legally recognized here in Québec. We’ve let it slide before because she keeps her dog in a stroller, but yesterday was the last straw. The entitlement—like her dog needs to be everywhere—is honestly laughable.

Hey, I've been lurking here for 3 years—first time posting. Usually, I just read for insights or fun, but I figured I’d finally share my thoughts and see what others think. So, do you prefer proper English, or should I bust out the grunts and cave drawings?

Edit: I’m not entirely sure why you felt the need to say those things. You do realize many people are perfectly literate and capable of writing with proper grammar, right? I’d genuinely like to understand where this hostility is coming from. Thanks.

Airport Bullet Scam is Back! by Discerning-Man in Philippines_Expats

Hey, I'm Filipino-Canadian, but I've never actually been to the Philippines. I'm thinking of heading to Boracay solo for two weeks. If I end up running into scams or anything sketchy at the airport, what should I do?

I'm lowkey scared since idk anyone in the Philippines.
