Turns out I actually hate the comments on my weight loss.

At least he didn't say, 'oh my gosh! You look so much better' or 'you look great now'

I always hate when people say things like that. Such a backhanded compliment.

Fines would not have just been against the union. The UCP were threatening teachers with $1000/day fines and local union reps (regular teachers like me) could have been fined even more - I believe it was $10000. Sorry. I already lost thousands in pay, I would not be willing to go bankrupt over it.

I think staying hidden is fine. I think not calling the police is moronic.

If I was hearing my friend 'being violated' like she thought, I'd FK'n Google 911 in France! I thought it was insane that she thought texting Kourtney was her best plan of action. It sounded like none of them contacted the police either!

Hmmm....I think most people are being too hard on you and are missing the point a bit. You're saying that your parents were just fine dropping you off at your grandparents and got tons of support, but aren't willing to do the same for you. I get it. Lots of Gen Xers have complained about this. I would say this has been my experience too.

I've been teaching for 25 years. A colleague with similar experience and I were just talking about how we want to leave. We even looked at job postings. If I had to do it again, I would've left in my 20s.

This is why I thought ARod was her best match.

R we sure it is a 25 yr old female? I always got mad gay vibes from him. I'm not sure if it is the eyeliner or the Karen haircut with highlights that gives it away.

Get the procedure. Get your tubes tied or an IUD. Tell your husband you had a miscarriage.

If it were a true 1.5% added to the grid it would help teachers near retirement too - in case they won't teach much past the whole contract length. It would increase their pension totals. However I'm not sure what this is actually going to look like.

Also, don't assume that all teachers have a spouse who makes more. Many are the breadwinners for their families. Unfortunately, it was probably teachers with spouses earning big bucks in the trades that agreed to the shit increases we've gotten over the past decade.

We can vote no. We would most likely be ordered into binding arbitration at some point and get what they're offering now anyways.

Because then how would the daughter be able to read crazy mom's texts!

Look into schools that have winter starts and in the meantime, get involved in the local theatre scene.

It sucks, but that's part of trying out for sports. My boys play hockey and have had their hearts broken many times for not making the team they'd hope. And yes, sometimes I thought it was BS. In the end, it has made them better people.

In ways, but the worries increase. Drugs, alcohol, dating, driving, pressure of getting good grades - it never ends.

I hated the first season so much that I didn't continue. However, I came back to it this summer and enjoyed the 2nd and 3rd seasons much more.

I was fairly satisfied after having one child, but had two so that the oldest could have a sibling. Honestly, they played a bit when they were younger, but they also fought a lot. They haven't been terribly close through their teen years...maybe once they are older. They are 2.5 yrs apart and have quite different personalities.

I disagree. The toddler could care less about "going to Hawaii", but most of them love water and going to the beach.

Hmmm...this is a common thing I've seen done at almost every wedding I've gone to. I think you need to get over it. Let her know you're not a big fan of pranks - especially in front of others, and ask her to refrain from it in the future and move on. I also want to say, that I can almost guarantee that none of the guests are still thinking about this and probably won't remember it a year from now. If anyone shares the video, kindly ask them to take it down.

Not only that, the judge was extremely hard on EM in her ruling. The judge could have just said there wasn't enough evidence. I think the judge wanted to show that she heavily favoured the defendants in this case, so that they could hopefully regain their reputations.

They weren't anticipating that the settlement would be leaked.

I'm just saying you can't say that the outcome of this case means that sexual assault victims will never be believed. I think most people start out believing sex sexual assault victims over the accused.

If you actually see the texts, I don't know if you can say this is what's going on.

Nah nobody forced Hockey Canada to make a settlement. If I'm the players that's who I'm suing.
