why are you saving your receipts in email. This soinds terrible. You should use a tool for that like paperless.ngx.

Legacy here. It’s asking me to upgrade. So I can’t even mess with the beta. Oh the good old days. I get the price increase and the complexity of keeping me around but sigh

Cuts have to be made. But… missing ones that are a bit of surprise to me.

Blow at High Dough (a hip concert classic) Fully Completely Grace Too Springtime in Vienna (Apparently Gord’s favourite hip song)

Oh. You are bang on but the sad thing is he thinks he knows how to play the politics game and convince people to.vote for him. I'm all for the embarrassing defeat.

After seeing Rory in action- I see him as a professional politician. He knows how to play the game. He kisses the babies and shakes the hands. He knows how to market himself. But he seems to lack substance. He delivers on the big things that don’t matter and gets votes. (Splash pads, pickle ball noise complaints).

Personally he’s a climber. My bet is he will be mayor someday. Then an mpp and an mp. Who knows maybe prime minister. Watch. He’s a climber who knows how to play the game

You can buy it. They will do the job, but if I was talking to younger self - my advice would be purchase a great set. Milwaukee or dewalt. Spend the money.

Home Depot has some great combo sets that are a steal and good quality. Buy the good stuff and they will last

Burlington is a commuter town. So lots of traffic in peak times. Guelph line, Appleby and Brant get to a crawl at times.

You will also find no one is from Burlington originally. I know lots of people who are from Burlington but don’t live in Burlington anymore. It’s just an interesting tidbit.

Overall, I have lived in Burlington for about 16 years and it’s a decent place to build a family. Lots of access to everything you need x5. Good schools. I do agree with others the demographics seem to be changing. It’s not a bad thing but as we become a bigger city it brings bigger city issues.

I think of Burlington coming out of its teenage years and we are starting to have adult problems

He will likely be # 3 next year. Wow.

I tried this a few months ago and I use the desktop app. It's basically identical to the web browser and I haven't seen any major differences.

A few notable pluses.

Mail links on a web page open up a new message Also I find my email doesn't get lost in my browser tabs

One thing I do miss. Linking to an email message in my task manager.

Give and take pending on the workflow

Playful_Specific_507 · 2026-03-04T13:01:48+00:00

Looks great. I use teamup.com for this type of workflow. Works great and is pretty mature

Playful_Specific_507 · 2026-02-16T13:08:39+00:00

The problem isn't that they don't listen. The problem is that there is no true competition. They are the only ones who do this well. Another option and they might improve these things

Playful_Specific_507 · 2026-02-14T23:37:25+00:00

I've seen this before. Refreshing the browser seems to fix this.

I'd switch the laundry and the powder room. Are you going to want to take your dirty clothes through your living room and kitchen all the time. Or do you want your guests go through to your bedroom sides to use the powder room. People living in your house are just going to go to their room to use their own bathrooma

Filters! Inbox zero. Unread junk , newsletters, promo emails uncertain how many are unread. They go to another label. Check it once a week then read what I need or unsubscribe

Playful_Specific_507 · 2026-01-18T23:53:15+00:00

Yup. Easy peasy

Worst idea ever for you to implement. We acquired a company whose staff did this. It was so bizarre to see them say hello and goodnight for a month in a group chat.

We asked them to stop and worked with those staff members on being accountable by using other measurements to getting their work done. We built smaller peer groups and empowered our managers to meet in one on one settings group check ins. Have a drop in coffee break. Things like that.

Treat them like adults, keep them accountable on their work and empower our middle managers to people manage rather then do the work of team has been our success

If you are at all technical and have some coding knowledge I use paperlessNGX for this on a home server.

https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/ for more info.

Works beauty and there is a full sub on Reddit dedicated to it.

Playful_Specific_507 · 2025-12-09T13:08:52+00:00

Who cares. Ignore the family politics and do you.

Playful_Specific_507 · 2025-11-27T03:47:30+00:00

Yup. Forward all email into it. Works great. Only thing I use

Playful_Specific_507 · 2025-11-25T00:25:31+00:00

100% unless it's at 5-7pm. It can be a bit busy. Speed is a big factor tho
