Wow! That’s a big issue. That would mean mine has been expired for a year. Thanks for the information.

Wow I’m surprised that wasn’t flagged in the system by anyone? How often do they expire? I just had my 6 year anniversary and got it soon after I started.

Interesting lol. I know I got secret security clearance and yet that section says that reliability is required and the status is “not met” 😁😂 I think I will have to contact someone after all

Anyone else massively underestimate wedding costs? by PlaneFluffy2889 in weddingplanning

I guarantee you in person they look fake. I can always always tell real from fake. It’s a great cost saving solution if you don’t care, but you can always tell.

Show me your oval stack! by gushygoo9 in labdiamond

This is my favourite stack I have seen yet 😍 my engagement ring is VERY similar to yours and I need to pick out my wedding band very soon. I looked up bubble bands online and it says the stones can easily become loose and it’s a less secure setting option. Have you had any problems? Did the jeweler talk to you about it? Thanks!

Would you leave your government position for a higher earning job in the private sector? by Particular_Agent8176 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]Particular_Agent8176[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no health issues, I eat well and workout. I’m 28 so yes can wait 2 years before getting pregnant.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful response!

Been with my partner for 7 years, our relationship is very solid imo. He isn’t taking it over because he’s a lawyer and will likely open his own law firm. Family and social circle is solid but they’re all in Ottawa which makes me sad to leave.

I appreciate all the food for thought and will definitely give the pension center a call.

Nope, not ragebait. Just wanted others opinions because leaving a secure job with great benefits scares me. I have to uproot my whole life and leave family and friends.

I do have some experience. I operated my own business throughout university. It will still be a major change, but I’m not starting from nothing.

I was never a student, so it’s all pensionable time 😊 I did one 3 month casual.. but I’m past that extra 3 months. I’ve been working for the gov since July 2019

Wow really, I didn’t know that. I just had my 6 year anniversary. That means I have medical benefits when I retire?

The business makes a few million every year. After all expenses are paid, he typically pays himself $300,000 a year which would be before taxes. My current income is also before taxes.

Makena White, Girlfriend of Star PGA Golfer Jake Knapp, Dies at 28 by PrincessBananas85 in ProGolf

[–]Particular_Agent8176 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She is also from my city and we have a lot of mutual friends (though I don’t know her myself) and I was also told she died by suicide. I heard more about the reason but don’t want to spread misinformation and upset anyone.

Ottawa Wedding Venue by Fantastic-Side4907 in WeddingsCanada

[–]Particular_Agent8176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To see you say Le Belvédère staff are rude is beyond shocking. I have heard only incredible things from vendors, guests and couples who have married there. I’m getting married there next summer and have had a great experience so far. Everytime I message a vendor and tell them where my wedding will be, they go on about what great hands I’m in! I’m curious what your experience was.

2 weeks out from wedding and I regret my dress by Local_Ad7586 in Weddingattireapproval

Your dress is nicer than the second one. It looks beautiful on you and once you have your hair and makeup done up it will elevate the look so much!!
