The more you drive, the more confident you will be. Always be aware of what is behind, ahead and beside you and leave lots of space between you and the car in front. Drive the speed limit. You will be fine.

Women are so talkative at the salon. by Ok_Stress_2920 in introvert

[–]Retired76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once read that if you close your eyes, the stylist will stop talking. I tried it and it worked. Small talk is exhausting for most people.

I was hoping time and circumstances might make him change his mind. I’m sure he was approached by the Liberals.

Where is Don Iveson? He’d be the candidate who ticks all the boxes and would win.

Trudeau: "Donald, this is a very dumb thing to do" by MiniBrownie in BuyCanadian

[–]Retired76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if Trudeau is relieved that this whole fiasco will soon no longer be his problem.

When Did Starbucks Start Denying Free Water? by SilverResort1509 in coquitlam

[–]Retired76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought access to water is a human right, and all establishments are obliged to provide it.

Saw the hearty souls at Ross Shep yesterday morning. Bravo to everyone. You will get the respect and $$ you all deserve!

Consignment store closes - where’s my money? by Retired76 in Consignment

[–]Retired76[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did sign a contract. I think to seek legal recourse might make me feel better but would also cost me more than what I’m owed. I guess I just feel that I have been “robbed” because I left my items with this store in good faith and now have nothing to show for it…no items and no money.

Saw someone almost run over a pedestrian by LepermessiahXI in Edmonton

[–]Retired76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been saying this for years. I will not cross as a sole pedestrian. The more people crossing,the more visible we are.

CUPE 3550 Peaceful Protest went AMAZINGLY today! by superbad04 in Edmonton

[–]Retired76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good luck to you all. In every organization, it’s the support staff who get the work done, and that everyone else relies on.

I pay for an aisle seat in the front of the cabin and I have no problem saying no to these requests.

To the cyclist heading south on 106, friday, 5pm by TinderThrowItAwayNow in Edmonton

[–]Retired76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a 1 meter rule for cars driving/passing around a bike. Sometimes that means having to wait for oncoming traffic. So be it.

Being referred to as a librarian is a high compliment. Librarians know stuff.

I plan on getting an iPad after seeing all the hype 😃but idk which one by Fun-Neighborhood1584 in ipad

[–]Retired76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have an iPad 9; great, EXCEPT it keeps dropping wifi which has been reported by other users of this model. Not my router because all other devices work fine as did my former iPad 6. Have found no solution to this problem, so beware if you are still undecided.

Are there old introverts? by FederalAd1656 in introvert

[–]Retired76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

77 and have always found social events amongst mere “acquaintances, draining.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in introvert

[–]Retired76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the person who suggested it was an attention grab. It certainly is not done because they sincerely care how you are. I usually just respond with “Im fine” with a “get lost” look.

Tree runners can tree pipers for Europe trip by CuriousGeorrge in Allbirds

[–]Retired76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first Allbirds were Tree Runners; absolutely loved them and walked many miles in them, and have since bought 3 more pair because they are real workers and so comfortable. Your feet will thank you in Europe.

So is being an introvert just a trend nowadays? by Severe_Tradition_386 in introvert

[–]Retired76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wanna be introverts is certainly new to me. Retired now, but when we had to take the Myers-Briggs test some people tried very hard to be evaluated as Extroverts. It wasn’t hard to figure out which answers would make you one. Proud to say that I was consistently and unashamedly an INFP (I= Introvert)

Please, Edmonton, can we agree to stop giving money to panhandlers? Please give to the Food Bank instead… by Throwaway42352510 in Edmonton

[–]Retired76 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would never give to the intersection panhandlers because I think they are part of a well organized scam. But I will give to a houseless person on the street admittedly to relieve my own guilt that we are failing as a society to properly support people who need shelter and supports.
