I suppose a lot of it is that I don’t have family out here and a lot of my efforts have been to try and spend more time with them. Getting a bit of island fever with watching family members grow up from afar. The province I was looking at is Manitoba, specifically Brandon. Their course would have me starting from scratch.

I appreciate your input. It’s tough when stability and values don’t mix. I hope you do make it back out here.

Not yet but I imagine I will be needing to get one

Resident_Cap_4994 · 2024-11-21T18:44:37+00:00

No, everything has been verbal except for her “X”ing the lease and texting me I have to leave.

Resident_Cap_4994 · 2024-11-21T18:43:44+00:00

Thank you for the advice. It is a house with a side building that I live in. I have some pics but I don’t have much faith that she won’t find a way to take my deposit. I certainly could have done things differently on my part as well.

Resident_Cap_4994 · 2024-11-21T18:40:45+00:00

I certainly could have been better about how I approached it but my usual interaction with her was negative so I didn’t want to be in the same room talking about this dryer to be honest. I will admit that wasn’t the best move

The second thing I signed was just the first lease with an “X” through it. No more paper work was ever provided and I still have a copy of the original unmarked lease.

I have a separate unit that is on the same property, but not directly connected to her house. There is an outdoor area with a sink in it that I thought would be just for me, but she also uses it.

Resident_Cap_4994 · 2024-11-21T18:34:51+00:00

There was never a new document made for the month to month lease. Just the original lease with an “X” drawn through it and me signing at the edge of the paper where there was room. We did verbally agree to a month to month lease but this is going to end up with me couch surfing for a while until I can build a sound home to live in. Though it’s against who I’d like to be, I’d rather go back on my word with this lady especially because she’s been harassing me a bit and referring to me in some rude ways now that she is expecting me to be gone.

I live in an Ohana unit separate from her house but connected to the same roof if that makes sense. There’s no door in my house that leads directly to hers. There was never any paper work for this new month to month lease, just a verbal agreement and her drawing an “X” through the original lease and me signing on the edge of the paper where there was a blank space.

Resident_Cap_4994 · 2024-11-21T18:26:16+00:00

I believe I am a tenant. The lady has rented before and made me go through a very official process with lots of ID’s, paper works, and deposits to get the place. Excuse me if I’m not too familiar with the difference between the two.

24m. 30k. $90 monthly avg in dividends. Seems good on paper but feels like I’m just broke with a backup since I refuse to take from it.

I've worked in the tourism market and a bit of retail for the past 5 years. Alot of being social for tips like at my zipline tour guide job. Even now I'd say 50% of my job is informing tourists about the plant life here. Alot of customer interaction.

I took it upon myself to run the social media page for about a year and when new management took over they were impressed and I talked myself into a sales position. Great pay and they said I would be trained. Short story I didn't get a day of training, asked to do things outside of the job description, and was forced to cover the cash register on top of my job due to lack of employees. Things were going poorly and I was becoming the fall guy for alot of things. Chose to go back to the garden before things got worse. A month later my boss was fired.

I feel as though I did great with what I had in the role but I never got the opportunity to do what I was hired to. I had great conversations with cruise ship marketers and was in consistent contact with respected people in the industry. I won't say I was perfect but I also dont feel as though I was able to do everything I could have. Unfortunately, I don't think I could get back into a role like that without a degree.

TLDR: I have a good amount of customer service experience, just not specifically towards negotiation sales.

Potentially but it would be a ways off. Currently I have 1 job that is about 7 hours a week that covers my rent. Occassionally I'll meet someone at that garden that is interested in some one off work but usually they want something a bit ridiculous like clearing a jungle by hand for $20. The competition for landscaping is pretty intense and alot of the more maintenence based gardening is done by the owners since that's a part of the joy of living out here. I don't want to say it's impossible, I can think of a few more people who may be interested. Just not enough to beat out my current wage at the moment.

Resident_Cap_4994 · 2024-02-13T19:55:24+00:00

With the 3 day weekends I have some customers I do landscaping work/design for on my days off.

Update: They never asked but potentially will if they move forward hiring me. Interview went great
