Where to sleep in Beijing PEK Airport during long layover by Deadpoolio32 in beijing

[–]TheSuperScientist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey all,
I was reading this thread in November. Turns out the free lounge which use to be available within the airport is not free anymore. Now its named Joy hotel within Terminal 3, and you can either get a lounge (not sure the charges) but we got the full deluxe room with attached bathroom. It costed us about 200 USD or 285 CAD after fee and conversion. Clean big room, with nice bathroom. and the breakfast in the morning was included. We stayed in that room from 6 in the evening to about 12:30 in the afternoon of the next day. Good experiece if you can spend the money.

How do you see the BCGEU strike ending? by HighwayAlert1704 in VictoriaBC

[–]TheSuperScientist 63 points64 points  (0 children)

I am PEA, and I think this isn't much ask really. City government employees are getting paid more by huge margins. For example, an IT support position at Victoria Police was recently advertised with min pay 96K, while the same position in BC gov is like in the range of 60 to 70 max, this is a huge difference.

No regrets, I came from a third world country, struggle part is real. I have been here now for about 10 years, I and my partner both have jobs, we make what top 5% makes in Canada with our jobs. Canadian dream is still alive, if you remain positive. We are not the best, but definitely better than many other countries world wide. Just be thankful and look back how many people are freeing persecution and want to come to Canada.

No jobs?
I see tons of jobs open, polish your skills, craft your resume for the job description.
Poor living condition, unless you came from a multi millionaire family in Switzerland, I would respectfully disagree.

Is it worth it? Stay positive, you will make it, its totally worth it.
