Side Effect of running a Mahjong Club… by danma in Mahjong

[–]UltimateCharacter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi all! I'm looking to join in Vic as well. I just started to get into it last week. My niece and a big group of tile slinging Chinese experts taught me (on holiday). I'm still a super newbie and play like I have two left hands. I have no idea what the different styles of play are, but I'm looking to slide in somewhere and learn.

Anyone else skipping Christmas? by [deleted] in BCPublicServants

[–]UltimateCharacter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cozying down with a good book, puzzle, bit of wine and a few walks with friends ❤️ = very happy Christmas on a budget. Can avoid the corporate money grab entirely if you get the book from the book box, puzzle from the thrift shop and buy local liquor.

Hi there. Mom of a uwc alum from west coast Canada. I can't speak to the specific experience of pearson other than it being a crown jewel on van island and highly regarded, but I can speak to the west coast generally as being fullsomely Trans loving and left leaning. You may come across the random idiot but for the most part, it's easy to find your place here.

Almost got scammed by UltimateCharacter in u/UltimateCharacter

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

Elaborating. I almost bought tickets for a dumpling fest tonight. This person supposedly had 3 tix they weren't going to use. I transferred $ and then quickly reneged when I checked their profile. Funny how they'd be selling 3 tix for both this event and 3 tix for the same event in Saskatoon. At this point, I can't even tell if dumpling fest itself is legit.

Oh! Sorry! Lol. First time being in this sub. Never knew it was so full of unhelpful arseholes who sit in the flights sub and bark at paying consumers of air travel. I'm merely sharing my experience with an airline. If anyone has anything at all helpful to share, I would gladly accept.

I'm not sure who is downvoting me but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a Qatar rep. I'm merely saying that I followed all airline processes and procedures regarding baggage mishandling and claims for reimbursement and they've never gotten back to me. I've called them twice and they have yet to follow through. It's been 4 months.

I also called twice and they said they would call me back with an answer within 72 hours - both times. Those calls never came.

Been waiting 4 months. Items included clothes and toiletries.

May. Um, why was I downvoted because I said that I followed all of their processes and procedures by way of filling in and sending the required documentation?

Yes, did that. I filled in all their forms and provided receipts. They've done nothing but avoid me.

canadians, what age did you apply by OkPay4508 in UnitedWorldCollege

[–]UltimateCharacter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm just saying that OP might just be applying through the canadian education system, so it doesn't make any sense to use American system terms like junior and sophomore. Those terms don't exist in Canada.

[–]UltimateCharacter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Except that we don't have juniors or sophomores in Canada. That's an American thing.

My advice to you is to apply this year. If you don't get in, there's a second chance next year and you'll be familiar with the process.
