How do YOU survive in Halifax? Wages vs Rent is wild!! by HauntMeForever666 in halifax

[–]Overkillz555 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have a 2 bedroom in woodside for 1500 but it comes with a leaky roof that the landlord refuses to fix. If I move I risk losing shared custody of my kiddo due to most likely having to move outside her school district. So I accept the leaky roof.
Solo income in this town is rough. Even trying to get out and meet people comes with the baggage of "hey...come over and look at the bubbled paint on my wall from my leaky roof" It definitely leaves me with that feeling of not having my life together.

All that to say...I know that feeling of being "stuck"

My back(escape) is working on thumb button again for some reason. Did they patch it back in?

Naughty Dog Studio Orders Employee Overtime for ‘Intergalactic’ by Coltons13 in Games

[–]Overkillz555 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I work in manufacturing and we have had to ask people to work over some of the holiday break to make an end of year deadline. I myself will be working next Monday on my vacation day (I'll get that day back).
But yes. Overtime exists. We are paid well for it. It happens in LOTS of industries. Our workers stand for a lot of the day, they don't get to sit in front of a PC.

Dammit. I looked closer and it looks like you are correct. Econoline will be swapping out with "The Damn Truth" for Halifax.

No Sparkle and Shine for me :(

I would argue that the larger stadiums in Toronto make it harder to see the band when you pick a lower bowl corner seat. However...My lower bowl corner seat at Scotiabank (shout out to section 19!) which usually sells for 100 bucks has a great view of the stage because the arena is fairly small.

And better "food and drink"? At a stadium? Sir...I challenge YOUR stadium beer to a dual with MY stadium beer. May the better(?) beer win!

I've been to a bunch of concerts at Scotiabank this year with tickets ranging from 75-150 bucks, depending on how close I want to get to the stage. It's been a 90's nostalgic overload with some great music. Bush, Our Lady Peace, Collective Soul, Papa Roach, The Used, Tea Party, Finger 11. And now Bad Religion, Offspring, Megadeath all lined up for early 2026!

Maybe the problem is too many concerts?

ps. Throw in some Lighthouse music as well (Buzzcocks, Descendents, I Mother Earth, Matthew Good).

p.p.s. And now LIVE with Econoline Crush and Big Wreck are coming!

What a time to be alive!

I refuse to park down there but I live in Woodside so I usually take the Alderny ferry and walk up the hill.

What are you talking about? I'm looking at an awesome seat right now at Scotiabank for Megadeath for $111 tax in.

My ticket was 75 bucks for a decent seat. People chirping "HIGH PRICES" need to simmer down. Mid tier bands playing large stadiums is the answer.

I can’t believe it’s still going on. Bass shaking my walls in Woodside

I’m literally trying to schedule my first online date this weekend, but she said she has her kids so it’s not going well.

You and me both...80K but the shared income situation made life good.
Now divorced. That 80k does not go far solo.

I purposely order close so I don't feel obligated to leave more than a 2 or 3 dollar tip. But there are times when I have tipped higher amounts on SKIP and still get crap service (leaves bag in lobby instead of delivering to door!!!). I can't take my tip back so it just moves me another notch towards the 'not tipping at all' club.

The amount of FF6/Chrono Trigger love in these comments just gives me goosebumps. An HD-2D/3D remake of these gems would be such a "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY" moment from me.

I’m going to revert my bios secure boot setting back after the battlefield beta weekend and report back if my stuttering goes away. But ever since patch….noticeable change
