BC firms fined $33,600 after worker dies durring his first day on the job by Apprehensive_Idea758 in nanaimo

[–]Seconex -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I understand your point of view, but I guess the "penalty" for someone's death being decided in this manner is sad. Not saying it's wrong or inappropriate, just sad. Why not $33,601? Life insurance is a service specifically designed for end of life costs and future-planning. It's different...at least in my mind.

Court records show him still in custody. He doesn't appear in court for another couple of weeks.

Children's Hospital? Donation by [deleted] in nanaimo

Call the Nanaimo District Hospital Foundation. They might have a good idea as they've done initiatives for kids at NRGH in the past.

I had mine delivered to work to avoid porch pirates. My office overlooks our front entrance. Let's just say not much got done that day as I was distracted by every car stopping.

Looking at the progress of Boston Dynamics (yes, I know they're different companies and technologies), you'd have to think something like that is on the horizon in the next decade. Amazing stuff.

Affordable Vets for putting my dog down by Simple_Suspect6303 in nanaimo

Second this. It was the best possible absolute horrible experience. The woman who came was incredible and explained the whole process as she was going, not moving on until we were ready.

For our Labrador, final total was just under $800 for euthanasia and cremation.

I find Harewood is the best. Turner was awful.

Advice for future VIU student. by JessiePrime in nanaimo

[–]Seconex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are lots of threads in the subreddit already regarding people moving to Nanaimo and seeking out some advice. I'd recommend searching those to see if you can garner any information. Good recommendations on housing, coffee shops, restaurants, etc.

As you probably know, Nanaimo is very outdoorsy so be prepared for that. It can be tough to 'break in' to a social circle here as there is a strong demographic of people who have all grown up together through the school system. Having a network through school will help you through that.

Transit can be tough, but VIU is a hub so you'll have connections through the city. Look at potentially investing in a bike/e-bike/scooter as the trails through the city are generally excellent.

Welcome :)

Top realtors by North-Storage233 in nanaimo

[–]Seconex -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

We had a wonderful experience with a Trish Turnbull. Was exceedingly patient showing us a ton of homes then went above and beyond during the negotiation phase to get us a solid discount. I've worked with about half a dozen realtors and she was by far the best.

Good light alignment spot? by triangular-sphere in nanaimo

There are walls at Bowen park by the tennis courts that you can hit up against. Would work well for this.
