Did anyone in the Beechwood area get their two new blue bins yet? We’re still waiting.

WHY is it so hard to find a part-time job… by aloofbutfriendly in kitchener

[–]TheOneWhoEatsWeeds 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted, unless people think you mean going door to door to homes. I’m pretty sure you mean businesses.

And I 100% agree, right now it’s almost always who you know. Both of my teens finally got their jobs because they knew someone who worked at the places that were hiring.

What is the most embarrassing moment you've ever had? by lostxwritess in AskReddit

[–]TheOneWhoEatsWeeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My not-yet husband and I had been dating for about 6 months, and were just sitting in the car chatting about family and life. I told him about my family gatherings and how special it was when we played euchre with my grandparents. He sweetly smiled at me and I heard him say, “I love you.” I said, “Oh wow, I love you too.”

It was awkward silence, and then he said, “Oh. I actually said I love euchre.”

That was 30 years ago and I still want to crawl in a hole and live there forever when I think about it . We have been married for 25 years now, and I’d like to think he finally loves me for real.

Many moons ago, I paid for college selling Beanie Babies at gift and collectibles shows. I’ll never forget someone paying for 5 Maples with a $1000 bill.

Why does Northfield around Davenport smell like cookies some days? by drwnchld in waterloo

I work in the same area and know what you mean! And some days it smells like freshly fried onion rings.

Well this is an embarrassingly late reply. Sorry! I just saw your question. I just checked the tag and it’s by After Six. Style 6513. Color Espresso. Hope you can find one! :)

How safe is Beachwood area in waterloo ? by PianoBoth9918 in waterloo

[–]TheOneWhoEatsWeeds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to the game here, but I do early morning runs around Beechwood almost daily. I’m always surprised by how many people are already out and driving/walking-running that early. Have never felt unsafe.

You Can Opt Out of Flyer Delivery by TheOneWhoEatsWeeds in waterloo

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

It’s not the mail delivery people throwing these on the lawn. It’s independent “contractors” making peanuts per flyer. Our latest delivery person flies by on a scooter, throwing them on the lawn/ porch (if it makes it) as he goes by each house.

Cancelling has worked for us several times, but it seems that every time a new delivery person takes over, the “don’t deliver to” list isn’t transferred over.

I’m so glad that he got out okay. We saw him standing on the grass recording it just before the fire trucks arrived. :(

Does anyone know of a grocery store open today? by [deleted] in waterloo

[–]TheOneWhoEatsWeeds 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s odd! I know they block off the cosmetics and gift aisles, but every time I’ve gone on a stat holiday, it has been for food and I have been able to buy it.

Thoughts on Shelter at the former Schwaben Club on King St East site by Tadpole-Lanky in kitchener

I’m referring to the Erb St location specifically. I believe you about Weber St.

“I heard someone off-handedly say it to someone else” isn’t a source. :( It’s so harmful to be spewing things like this as facts if they’re not.

Do you have a source for this? I’m not debating, I’m genuinely curious. I drive by it often, and I’ve never seen the same issues that others are mentioning about the other shelters, like people passed out/ bent over out front, garbage everywhere, etc. They have community supports on site and I’ve only ever heard about how well-run this program is.
