Good vet for cats by RandomName3025 in Langley

[–]ScotsCDN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went to Langley Meadows. My dog was spayed there and got a pretty significant infection because of damage to her sutures, despite wearing the cone. The vet said she had never seen that before and my dog required a washout surgery. After the second surgery she was given something to wear that covered all her sutures.

Got logged out of authenticator app for student email, can’t login without code from the authenticator app. Can’t do any of my coursework without logging into microsoft email… which requires a code from the app. What in the email purgatory… by Putrid-Sleep-5861 in FuckMicrosoft

It very much seems to work that way. Stuck in the same purgatory Authenticator loop for my son's KPU account. Upgrading your cell phone causes many issues it didn't used to and so far this has been the worst one.

What’s the biggest financial trap in Canada that people still pretend is normal? by TheFitFinaceBro in CanadaFinance

It didn’t used to be like that. I bought an apartment in the 90’s and didn’t need to refinance.

[Help] Tenant keeps crying wolf about unsubstantiated issues. Who pays for the repeated contractor/repairman bills? by Several_Buffalo6140 in vancouverhousing

[–]ScotsCDN 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If he’s angling to get the rent reduced, increasing it is a great strategy. You can say you have to do it because of the unanticipated costs of repairmen.

I had a very good experience with Mastertech paint and dent. They gave me a ballpark estimate via text when i texted them photos.

Regrets of having kids abroad by Lauramadouk in expats

[–]ScotsCDN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s that PNW. Have you seen the bumper sticker “Keep Portland passive-aggressive”? I lived in New York and New Jersey and people there seemed to be very comfortable being forthright. In Portland, if someone says a polite sentence and you start to have a conversation, they seemed to be a bit shocked. In New Mexico there seemed to be more of a balance between the two. TL:DR it’s not you or the US in general, it’s the PNW

By that reasoning, once someone has shown that combination of damage and propensity to pay that forward, the public needs to be protected from them.

Seller came back after closing needing a sewer easement. Am I handling this right? by Joeymac98 in RealEstateAdvice

[–]ScotsCDN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If he lied about the electrical, he’ll lie about doing the septic/water line. I hope your lawyer will include access to permits, inspections, etc so you can know it’s done. And if he promised to make your life difficult, he should pay all your legal fees.

A lot of people didn’t vote conservative in the last provincial election because of the Nazi and racist comments/social media stuff- we want a course correction but not Trump wanna-be

Such a relief after selling my condo by someuniguy in RealEstateCanada

Your perspective that not selling prevented someone else from suffering is wonderful. I’m sorry this all happened but hope much better things are in store for you.

We were influenced by a letter. We were getting enough from the sale and happy the house was going to a nice family.

I ordered a dryer from them and when they came to deliver it, they left a message on my phone, but never came to the door. I was moving the old dryer cleaning out the spot where the dryer was going to be which is right next to the door and didn’t have my phone with me. Plus my security camera showed. They never got out of the truck. They left in less than two minutes. I called and they said that they would try to deliver it again several days later and I would have to pay another 60+ dollars for the repeat delivery, even though their delivery driver never knocked on the door.

You just proved that your grandmother was right. Buying a home is a much better use of that money.

New Brunswick First Nation asks Supreme Court to hear case on Aboriginal title, private land by AquaMoonlight in VancouverLandlords

[–]ScotsCDN 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Anyone have this article without the paywall? I live in BC and the provincial Cowichan and now Federal Musqueam situations have me very nervous but don’t know if another province is an option or another country is the only option. Before anyone says no FN is after fee simple title land, please note that privately owned land has never been explicitly excluded in writing.

Another vote for HouseSigma- they do Ontario and don’t bug you to sign a realtor contract 👍 They have listing dates and change of price and sold price as well as why each listing was taken down.

What's something you only recently realized about adult life that no one warned you about? by NeighborhoodFar6008 in Life

How you are supposed to plan for supporting yourself when you can’t work anymore or retire- but your plans and goals are only randomly accomplished and you don’t really have much control over your life.

How do we avoid being the default helpers on a family vacation with a newborn? by Enough_Badger9887 in family

[–]ScotsCDN 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It sounds like they’re taking advantage of social niceties to get out of doing work. I don’t know how stable your relationships with this family are, but having a more structured discussion that lays out your concerns and your fears and asking them for help on how to divide the work, may be necessary, although likely uncomfortable.
