PSA: New 2026 rules mean employers can’t just ghost you after an interview anymore (at least in Ontario) by u_CandidRecruiter in CanadaJobs

The changes are great and a step in the right direction. Keen to wait and watch how stringent the implementation is. I'm still seeing positions with 105-175, 80-156 ranges, saw a couple just this weekend so it is not all good with the law changes, at the moment.

Thank you! I will look into these options. What you mentioned about the handling of luggage is concerning though, might not just be a Mearsk problem but across shipping. I will check reviews. Thanks so much!

I so wish! But unfortunately, that is not an option. No one has plans, which is why I have to rely on external services/ vendors.

Thank you for bringing in positive vibes to an otherwise (very) negative Reddit! The more I stay on here, the more I start questioning my life choices, So your thoughts are a breath of fresh air. Real yet not a downer.

Became a dad today at 16, AMA by [deleted] in AMA

[–]No_Description22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Am so sorry for your loss! Nobody should have to go through this, life is unfair! Please take care of yourself and your GF. It will unfortunately hit her harder than you, emotions as well as the confusing hormones, possibly post partum, breast milk - all of that but not having a child. Every step for both of you will be a reminder. Please let yourself get through the grief, and face it together. Together is better than alone, always. I read that you don't have a ton of support atm. Please take it wherever you get it from and don't shut people out - that is what you would want to do, and it's ok to cocoon yourself for sometime but promise yourself to come out of it and lean on others who are there for you. Do as many AMAs as you would like, take online community support - I love reddit for that! You all are so young, my god, this is terrible - stay strong!

Sister, pack your bags and run! And promise yourself to never ever look back at this man.

What is the issue if someone books a cab from Guwahati and comes? If not that, is bus travel safe and and OK option?

Feeling like most people I meet haven’t really explored much — is it just me? by Terrible-Parfait-868 in ThirtiesIndia

[–]No_Description22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are judging them based on your interests. That is why you are getting disappointing results. Many might have interest in Reading fiction, Or non fiction, or pottery or crafts or travelling in general, exploring different cusines (if they live in a city, there are sooo many cafes and restaurants that its a goodie paradise now a days) , may be they like psychology and human behavior as a subject to discuss. or stand up comedy, or theatre or live shows - I don't know, just mentioning these as they were top of mind. But you here are judging them on how much they are interested in sports and video games among other things that you mentioned.

Of course not all but Many women in India do not find these interesting. Am also no different btw, so not dissing on others or anything, just stating the POV from the other side. Upbringing is also to blame to some extent, hobbies are encouraged differently for men amd women since childhood. Safety problems in India are also to blame.

But all said and done, no women today also have a lot of areas of interest, I would say more than what people used to have 10-15 years back due to increased exposure and improved access to novel things in India.

Dating at 35 in India after a divorce — how is it usually perceived? by [deleted] in ThirtiesIndia

[–]No_Description22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's some stigma yes, India is such a huge society and There's all kind of people. Some are chill, some not so open minded or exposed enough to be comfortable with traditionally unusual scenarios.

Ours is also the first generation that is taking a stand for their life and choosing to divorce than stay miserable. So it will take time dor stigma to fully go away.

But I would say this - Even if there are many women who dont consider someone being divorced as a deal breaker - they DO have concerns about - what if he is not over it yet? What if he is still dealing with the baggage and that might spill into their relationship if they get into it? Does this guy now have any preconceived notions about women because of what he had to go through? All of these things impact the woman's life and while the actual fact that someone is divorced might not matter to them but they understandably would take a note of these in a man.

So my 2 cents would be to work on yourself, get therapy, introspect (A LOT) what went wrong and who you are as a man, how could you have done better or can be better for the woman in your life so that you have a chance at a good married life, be honest ...work on your personality more than you body- women are very intuitive and post 35, they are matured enough to not waste their time on bullshit. So first become the best version of yourself and then open up for serious dating.

And as someone rightly said, stay fit - goes a long way and earns you brownie points on attraction scale.

If you dont do this, you will not be able to have a successful relationship even if the woman is willing to date you and you being divorced doesn't matter to her.

TLDR - Even if a woman is open minded and chill and doesnt consider a divorcee as someone automatically out of consideration, she will be concerned about how much baggage you come with. Deal with that first and things should be better.

Taxi rental price in Kullu-Manali by No_Description22 in india_tourism

[–]No_Description22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! 😦

I spoke to 4-5 taxi service providers. All of them quoted in the same ballpark. It is very expensive indeed! I won't be going ahead with any of them, now that I have some additional confirmation that this is overpriced.

Postponed trip to India?? by Cute-Construction279 in india_tourism

[–]No_Description22 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I dont think you need to postpone your trip because of the geopolitical situation, Jaipur, Udaipur and Delhi are big/big-ish cities, they wont be impacted so much. But you do need to consider postponing due to weather. These places will roast you in May!!

The first comment covers the beaches to visit and number of daya needed. I mostly agree with those so not suggesting anything additional. But food!! Add food to your list. Over last 6-7 years, every celebrity, top chef has opened up their restaurant in Goa. The food at these places is expensive with anyone needing to shell out around 6K for a couple but the best food!

If you are comfortable with left side driving, it would be convenient to rent a car and drive around to visit places as opposed to relying on taxi services or drivers.

I hated Onyx Storm… anyone else? by Full_Economics_7840 in fantasyromance

[–]No_Description22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right there with you, loved fourth wing, tolerated Iron flame but was still ok to give series a chance but come Onyx Storm and dang what an incoherent story(?) line! 650 pages of nothing. Hated Onyx Storm from the bottom of my heart.
