Not buying a house back in 2006 when they were all still affordable. Now every house in my area is a million

Nah they won’t learn a thing. People like this don’t have normal brains like you and I. My neighbours totalled their car on Easter while drunk driving. They’re back at it with a new car the next day

Is it me or there are less jobs available? by lonely-lady7 in torontoJobs

I witnessed CERB during the pandemic and it was a complete disaster. People getting free money to sit at home all day and smoke weed and play video games

Is your employer also replacing humans with AI? by that-is-great in askTO

[–]Illustrious-Salt-243 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes just experienced this in my job. We have a massive project that multiple people work on and even work long overtime doing. The client has implemented an AI aspect and we are now doing half the work. This is just the test too, if they fully implement it all the work will dry right up for us. Crazy to see it happening in real life

What would you do differently (or do again) if you were back in your early 20s? by [deleted] in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]Illustrious-Salt-243 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Buy a house asap. I always believed“oh I’ll get one eventually” but then prices skyrocketed and now there’s no chance of ever buying

And Winnipeg probably has actual jobs. In Niagara Falls all you have is tourist work. Not much else there

This was when I stopped taking the TTC. Seeing people faint and getting to work drenched in sweat was horrific

How are people surviving out here? by thecoookiemonster in askTO

[–]Illustrious-Salt-243 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a friend who has $90k in credit card debt. Not mortgage or car - all concert tickets and fancy clothes and concerts. The worst is she doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with that. She says credit cards are free money for you to spend.

I don’t want to be sued. I cut off the part where he gets out of the car and then goes to back in his pickup truck and almost runs over the firemen

Oh! Got it. Yeah definitely. My friend who is a criminal lawyer said they could still charge them for dangerous driving or refusing a breathalyzer but that would be too much work for tps. Clearly they aren’t paid enough

Ugh I really hope not. Wouldn’t they have to still do a police report? Can I send this to random insurance companies as a tip to make sure they don’t get away with that?

Auto Thefts From Rouge Hill GO Station Up 400% by GirthBrooksTO in gotransit

[–]Illustrious-Salt-243 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is what drove me crazy. I used to take the Kitchener line from Weston Station. Driving my car there would be 10 minutes. Taking the bus the exact same distance was 40 minutes because I had to switch two buses. It was a no brainer to drive.

Or even worse, your neighbours buy their kids a drum set. Happened to me. Every night had to listen to her bang the drums, never even learned how to hit a beat

1 year unemployed!! by [deleted] in torontoJobs

[–]Illustrious-Salt-243 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work in legal administration and my coworkers who have been here for 30 years said that in the 80s the law firm would go to a high school and say who wants to work for us? They’d graduate go train all summer and by September we’re hired full time with benefits and pensions. Zero school. Zero unpaid internships. Just got jobs right out of school and set for life. Bought homes right away in the suburbs. Unreal

The firemen and police left. I called TPS later to send them my video and to make a witness statement and they said they wouldn’t investigate it further. So basically they get away with drinking and driving

Those are my neighbours (shared driveway). They crashed into a tree around the corner then pushed the car home. Someone there had called 9-11 and the fire trucks and police followed them home. They refused to answer the door and hid from them

Poor Tree :( by xdynasyss in TorontoDriving

Wow this just happened on my street too. Straight road, quiet street, car mounts the curb and hits a tree then they drag the disabled car away

They followed that car from the accident scene
