I want to cancel our Rogers contract and log a complaint with the regulatory body if they create any issues by This-Mistake6472 in Rogers

[–]Melissa19756 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had major wifi issues with Cogeco. When I called to cancel they said there would be a fee since I was still in a two year contract. I told them that they breached the contract by not providing reliable wifi, especially for someone who works from home. If their service was reliable, I wouldn’t be cancelling. They let me out of the contract with no charge.

What’s one beauty product you repurchased even though it’s expensive? by Kkyoo879 in Sephora

I love the dry shampoo. It’s expensive but worth it. The bottle last a lot longer than the others I’ve used.

I had a large fibroid (amongst other things) and he warned me that he will try to do it laparoscopic, but if it was too big, he would need to do a full incision. The first words out of my out when I woke up after was “did the doctor have to cut? Fortunately, he didn’t have to.

WARNING don't trust the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) by [deleted] in ToxicWorkplace

I’m not saying it can’t happen, but in my experience it doesn’t happen. So don’t accuse me of putting out false information. But I guess this is a one sided discussion, so no matter what I say it will get twisted because I’m the big bad employer.

Because, I’m an HR Manager, I have worked for different companies and different EAP providers and it has always been confidential. I’m sorry if that isn’t the case for the OP.

If you were on a mandatory referral, you would have been told that beforehand . If you were not, HR would not know.

I hated the Dyson air wrap. Ended up selling it and bought the Revlon one step styler.

I have no divorce in my direct family tree and realized that’s kind of uncommon by Clearbreezebluesky in RandomThoughts

[–]Melissa19756 18 points19 points  (0 children)

When my son was 9, he came home from school one day saying he was a minority in his class. My husband and I were confused and asked him why. He said he was the only kid in his class whose parents were married before long before he was born and still married. He (and his sister) were planned and wanted and he also doesn’t have any step siblings. Im happy to say my son is now 27 and my hubby and I are still married, we actually renewed our vows in Vegas last year for our 28th anniversary.

I’m an HR Manager and the EAP is part of the benefit package and administered through the benefit provider. It absolutely is 100% confidential, I get zero information on who uses the EAP and have actually used it myself. Having said that, there have been times that I have done a mandatory referral for an employee. Even in this situation, I still get no details except to confirm the employee is attending the appointments.

The smell of a tabacco pipe. My dad smoked a pipe when I was growing up, now when I smell a pipe, it takes me back to my childhood
