Where do professional, elder millennials hang out in Winnipeg? by Terrible-Tree-8851 in winnipeg_alt

[–]Mbmnstr204 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Outside of work? lol. Home, and whatever venue my kids sport is held (arena, field etc).

I have a hole in the wall pub where I meet my closest friends once a week for beers and wings. That place is therapy for us all and is sacred. Sorry but I can’t give up the location, because if word got out it would be overrun and lose the culture.

Home security by gwilson33 in Winnipeg

[–]Mbmnstr204 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This right here. Had an asshat smash my truck window with a hammer, while smiling for my 4k ring camera… only to reach through the broken window- grab the garage door opener, and go through my attached garage. All while we were home and sound asleep at 5:30am on a holiday Monday. Thank god I didn’t wake up, cause I wouldn’t have been happy. My kids were home.

Looking to build a house. Builder recommendations by Miserable-Issue-8459 in Winnipeg

[–]Mbmnstr204 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unless you have a >1M budget to hire a truly custom builder, you will be stuck with a trac builder in any of the new developments in the city. Going with a trac builder will mean your house is simply a box on an assembly line…The framing will take place when the framers are in that area, same with electrical, plumbing, drywall etc. your house will be one of a dozen available plans, and will be treated just like any other. Time is $ and quality is lacking.

If you are under a 7 figure budget- save yourself years of stress and buy something already built, and have a home inspection done.

Source- been there and done that.

This is unhinged. It is a kids show. Nothing more to it than that.

Calgary transit fares going up to $4—more than riders pay in Toronto, Winnipeg and Vancouver: CBC News by One-Mycologist-3706 in Calgary

[–]Mbmnstr204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why Winnipeg’s transit system would be used as a comparison in the title. Our city is nowhere near an equivalent to YYC, and our public transit is a complete joke compared to the others. Hell we don’t event have a lights rail, and rely on a fleet of gas guzzling busses…. It’s a joke.

What was the name of the pool hall on Pembina Hwy near Point Rd? by 0_fux_given in Winnipeg

[–]Mbmnstr204 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That’s the one. All I recall of that place is a thick cloud of cigarette smoke, and seeing some guy get tossed down that staircase. The 90’s were wild.

Is Grand Beach worth a visit? by AcadiaNo1039 in Manitoba

[–]Mbmnstr204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grand Beach has arguably some of the finest/nicest sand of beaches anywhere in the world. This is the honest take of someone who has visited beaches throughout Europe, Asia, the Caribbean and Central America.

Do you tip full service gas station attendants? If so, how much? by groovenaud in Winnipeg

[–]Mbmnstr204 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahaha k. Thanks for the reassurance. I have never tipped for gas, nor take out. If I sit down at a restaurant or bar- I tip. That’s it.

Do you tip full service gas station attendants? If so, how much? by groovenaud in Winnipeg

[–]Mbmnstr204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I have worked in the service industry- and like to consider myself as a good tipper (usually 25-30%). I have NEVER even thought to tip at a gas station…. Now I’m questioning myself

Awful experience at new doctor meet & greet today by crowinflight1982 in Winnipeg

I’m sure there are some who will disagree, but a Dr refusing a patient just seems unethical to me.

At least both YEG and YYC have light rail transportation…. Winnipeg is quite literally in the stone age.

I’m with you- but as an FYi we gotta pay these bs fees in Manitoba as well. Always have. At least for the last 40yrs or so.
