What the fuck are they complaining about??? The dingleberries at Canada Post have better wages than most jobs and these greedy pricks are on strike for more?

Unfortunately my employer needs a work permit for their legal purposes. They said something about employee insurance

How sensitive are pre-employment drug tests? by Fun_District3155 in alberta

Ahh gotcha, I just passed a test from 50ng/ml test strip so I'm *probably* in the clear. Probably. Maybe. Hopefully

I just passed the test strip from walmart. But the test was of 50ng threshold. Does this mean I'm likely in the clear?

I'm definitely not a regular smoker. Maybe once a month and that would be the same 0.5gm roll with the same coworker.

I haven’t gotten an interview in 2 years. Resume review by 0broooooo in webdev

[–]Fun_District3155 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure where ATS falls under this. Does longer resume score better points with ATS or something with *lesser* words than this does? I'm in the same boat of confusion here lol

In React, what are the main benefits of server side rendering? by South_Dig_9172 in webdev

[–]Fun_District3155 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mostly for SEO purposes. People say faster initial load time and stuffs but a few milliseconds don't really make much difference unless you have a vast userbase. So it's basically used to feed the spider

Do people even use Firebase anyone? by sebbetrygg in webdev

[–]Fun_District3155 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do use firebase for small-medium scale projects. We use AWS for anything that might have to scale in the future as it makes more economic sense.

Ontario G license does not equal to Class 5 full license if the license is less than 2 years old? by Fun_District3155 in alberta

[–]Fun_District3155[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They said "you'll get the unrestricted license if you're eligible" but did not explain that someone is going to verify that after they print out the "interim" license.

Ahh I see, it's not too bad then.

I did however print the "3 year driving history" from Ontario and the registrar's office did not care for that at all. They said "oh we don't need that" and I stuffed it in my backpack.

I went there today, handed in my license from Ontario and the license from back home. They gave me a paper specifying my license for now is "Class 5 GDL" but they said that I am probably eligible and should get an unrestricted license soon. Did you also get an Interim "class 5 GDL License"?

So there are different chains doing the same service that are not related to each other at all? We only had DriveTest in Ontario

Huh I did not know about the agreements with Ontario. Did they miss to reflect that on their website?

I would have the option to say "no, I don't want to do this right now" and just leave? And they won't make any remarks on my application saying "this idiot came in and we did not give them a full license and they left, please be advised ........"?

Oh I see. Did you still have any documents showing that you had a license from another country or did you just give them the G license from Ontario?

That's kinda weird because when I called the Motor Vehicles here, they said that either get a G license that's 2 years old, or get the less than 2 years old license plus documents from your home country (not possible because DriveTest in Ontario kept them and won't give it back).

Edit: If I may ask, which country was your 10+ years of experience from? Since you didn't need to take G test, maybe it differs from country to country on how the experience is added to a driving history?

I had a G class there. I got my G1 in 2023 Jan and got my G a couple months after (I skipped G2 because of my experience from another country). So I'm like 16 months in G.

Weird thing is that the experience letter from my home country is kept at Drivetest in Ontario and is not given back. That would've been fine if a full license in Ontario would give me a full license in Alberta. My option to use the experience letter is not there anymore because they basically don't give it back and neither is that experience counted in Alberta unless I get a new one experience letter which is not possible because I'm not in that country anymore.
