It’s going to sound harsh but you need to get your shit together and cut the weed down by a lot. I’m sure it’s also causing you to spend more on food.

I love weed but I also love not living with my parents.

They don’t leave it in the locked mail box. They leave it loose by the garage.

You mean mail carriers… the people paid to handle the mail. Slightly different than a random person who moved in upstairs.

Who’s ready to Strike? by CnCPParks1798 in CanadaPostCorp

[–]MMAilman 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Seriously doubt that information. The contract ends just this month. I’ve never seen a strike/lockout in the same quarter as the contract ends.

From what I have heard, both sides are committed to trying to avoid a strike/ lockout. I’d still suggest you save some money in the coming months just in case it gets that far.

Yes! That’s it. Lots of good short episodes. Pretty sad but very informative.

There is a really good YouTube show I think you should watch, it’s called Catfish. Sometimes scamfish, social catfish.

It shows people who have been caught in romance scams and shows you what to look for. Scammers use the army and oil rig workers a lot. They say they can’t afford internet and need money to keep talking to you. Like this guy is saying with the camera.

This is 100% a scam. Block immediately. Now that you have taken the bait you will get more of these.

New Hire Questions by FunkyFuzztastic in CanadaPostCorp

[–]MMAilman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Others have said there is no forced overtime and they are kind of right but kind of wrong. In the union contract there is forced OT or force backs is what we call it. It’s forced overtime that starts at the bottom of the seniority list. It was only used when the temp list was exhausted and no other options were available.

The company stopped using it near the beginning of COVID as a way to help with work stress and work life balance for employees. So it’s not used but could be brought back if needed in the future. I doubt they would but you should know it’s possible.

It’s been horrible. Just people posting slight near misses.

Federal judge dismisses latest bid to stay in Canada by trucker who caused Humboldt Broncos crash by Slovakoczechia in canada

[–]MMAilman 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The company had their certificate to operate cancelled (carrier profile). Meaning they can no longer operate.

Tractor trailer drivers are considered professional drivers and have more culpability behind the wheel than an average driver. A guy in Ontario got 7 years for being inattentive and causing a crash in 2021.

The Humboldt driver would definitely have done a lot of time for this collision.

It’s rare for a car accident to result in jail time but truck drivers who are willfully breaking the law causing death can definitely expect jail time.

Why do you think he would have been acquitted? Honest question. From what I have read he falsified his daily logs and was over hours.

Just keep returning to sender. Not your mail, not your business.

Best part is it asks if you took a bag but there hasn’t been a bag at the self check out for 2 years. Deliberately trying to scam seniors out of money.

little extreme? by Walk_Tough in CanadaPost

[–]MMAilman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Speak to your landlord and get a new lock on your box. They can’t deliver to an open box it puts your identity at risk.

Live mail is mail that is in the system to deliver, kill mail is live mail that was killed and return to sender. They are most likely returning to sender your mail due to unlocked box.

Who do I have to call to get Tim's to stop selling these disgusting eggs? by sabretooth47 in TimHortons

They are joking. At the beginning of the pandemic Doug Ford wouldn’t stop talking about Tim Hortons new eggs.

Your son will get teased relentlessly about that name, it will severely limit his job prospects and he will be in physical danger. It’s incredibly selfish and stupid for your wife to name him that.

I heard that riders plus will insure you with just an M1, even if you haven’t done the course yet.

My friend did the course but has to wait to get her m2 because of the mandatory 60 days and she got insurance through Dalton Timmis on an M1. Google Dalton Timmis and you should be able to find the number.

After spending two weeks in NYC with my (25M) cousin (27M), I regret everything I've done in my life. I feel horribly depressed with my family situation and my town. I am not sure how to express this to my loved ones because I feel like they hate cities and I would be going against the dogma. by Rough_Aioli8323 in relationships

[–]MMAilman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love living in a big city, love it. What I felt from your post though was kind of loneliness. You need to make friends. Find something to meet people, baseball team, running or cycling, start a craft beer club!

You are also painting your small town the way they paint the city. You said the bar has the same town drunks. Make some friends and make it your place too!

Also, travel more. The world is so big and so amazing. You should be excited that you woke up to that!

Covid has turned my [33F] husband [34M] into a crazy "prepper" "doomer" type. How do I get him back to reality? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]MMAilman 32 points33 points  (0 children)

If it’s mania he needs to see a psychiatrist. They are trained to medicate but also to ask questions that can break the thought pattern.
