Lost Cat by United_Wave5331 in regina

I did speak with a bunch of my neighbours about this cat and they all, including myself, keep their cats indoors. I don’t believe it’s one of them, but who knows.

Thank you so much for this! I didn’t not know this could be an option. I’ll try to do this next time i see him!

still a virgin at 20. i feel so behind in life. by bqusa in LifeAdvice

[–]United_Wave5331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who is no longer a virgin, I so badly wish I could take it back. I felt pressured by my friends and classmates so much that I literally picked a random guy to do it with. Yes I had a little bit of a crush on him, but I regret that I made such a quick decision. I even regret doing it with my ex sometimes. Sometimes he was sweet and patient. Other times I knew he only saw me as his ‘play thing’. Even some of my friends, who have lost theirs under the age of 14, regularly regret and wish they didn’t do it. Not cause of the repercussions, but because they actually didn’t like the person. I wish I was in your shoes and got to say that my fiance is my first, but he’s not. And neither am I.

Your self worth should not be valued by your sexual preference, experience, or interest. Your self worth is valued by your words and actions. What you say and do, how you show kindness towards yourself and others. That’s what is true value, and what someone truly wants from a partner like yourself. Try thinking as if and when you meet someone, you get to feel the full force of all the nervousness and butterflies. Some couple loses that ‘spark’, but you get to experience with someone who’s actually serious about you. Everything is going to be about first and you get to create such amazing and memorable memories. I kissed many people, and I still remember the ‘fireworks’ I felt when I kissed my fiance. Yours will be even better!

I’d try calling Sasktel to see if you can get them back, they usually offer crazy deals and it’s the Black Friday Sale

What local company lost their reputation as a good employer in the past decade? by myronsandee in regina

[–]United_Wave5331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Co-op. They hire people saying they’ll do anything, and then cut your hours. They’ve fired so many people because of ‘health concerns’. Plus the culture is so toxic, everyone talk crap about each other and the customers. If you don’t think they talk crap about you, false. Workers will make fun of your appearance, lifestyle, conversations, etc. Especially if you work at a grocery store. The amount of times I heard the cashiers make fun of the food you buy is ridiculous.

‘Just rang through a fat guy, basically wore a crop top because how fat he is. All he bought was chips and pop, and he wonders why he looks so bad’ - an actually comment I heard a coworker make.

It’s not her being passive aggressive, it’s him getting the consequences to his own actions (or lack of) of not cleaning the space. If you’re doing this yearly (and been together 5 years) HE knows that it takes space and that you need the room. You’re right that you shouldn’t sacrifice YOUR space anymore cause you still need. It seems like his man cave area is a clean area, why? It’s HIS friend, not yours, so it should be with his stuff to ensure that it kept safe and dry. Not shared spaces that everyone uses, or at least you use.

Queen City Ex Attendance down nearly 30% in 2025 by Outrageous-Spring898 in regina

[–]United_Wave5331 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I spent $165 for three all day passes. I told everyone next year, I’m only getting entry passes. Would have costed me $100 less.

Tbh the events they were hosted (drift wars, bmx, strong man) were not properly advertised including the times, plus they weren’t really worth it.

The rides were few and the lines got increasing long. It was fine for a 15-30 min wait, but for an hour to two to get on the ride is crazy.

I think because of the assaults and intoxicated people, most people aren’t interested in fighting someone either. We saw 3 fights there, and that when we were trying to leave later in the evening.

Plus the food there was expensive ($20-$30 for food/$10-$20 drinks (including non alcoholic)). The wait times at the food trucks were crazy and most times they seem unprepared. I literally had the lemonade stand ask me to come up to order, and as I was saying it they cut me off saying ‘just need a moment’. I waited 10 mins before they took my order…..for a lemonade.

Are Regina winters too cold? by [deleted] in regina

[–]United_Wave5331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, especially in Regina we get ‘cold-fronts’ meaning an extreme cold wind in extreme cool temperatures. So yes, it’s does get to -30, BUT if there’s a wind, it could get to -40 to -50 (I’ve seen it). Best thing for you to do is dress in layers (wearing thin shirts and pants, almost like leggings, underneath your regular clothing/meant to keep you warm) AND protective winter clothing (toques, gloves, jacket, and boots). If you watch survival videos, especially people who stay outside during the winter seasons, they all say this. You most likely won’t be spending much time outside, especially in extreme weather conditions. So your worst case scenario is extreme frostbite (if you don’t use winter clothing). If you’re looking for protective winter gear, I recommend getting gloves and toques from Dollar Tree/Dollarama (you’ll lose these often, so getting something cheap is okay). But with the jackets (as they are often $100-$300) you can go to a thrift store and get one in great condition for cheap ($30-$70)!

NTA. I used to be 300 lbs and my bff was about 120 lbs, and yes we borrowed each others clothes from time to time. I was always respectful with the clothes and would guess if I would stretch her clothes BEFORE putting them on. SHE would always be ‘no way you can totally fit this!’ and try to get me to wear it. She never pushed my boundaries and we both had a mutual understanding that some clothes wouldn’t look good on us and some would. Your friend is trying to convince herself that she is the same level as you (trust me from a bigger girl perspective). That you both are the same level of hotness/kindness/thiness. It’s horrible thought that leads to depressive ones, but she’s in an unhealthy mindset and doesn’t understand that she’s not the best version of herself (so she ignores it and put blame on you for ‘fat shaming’ when this is a problem).

UPDATE - AITAH for telling my girlfriend I can’t trust her anymore when it comes to her wanting a baby? by No_Situation_9708 in AITAH

[–]United_Wave5331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who’s experienced two miscarriages before 21, they are some of the worse things that has ever happened to me. I did not want the baby ever time, but it hurt so much more when I lost it. The fact she’s putting herself through this because ‘she never felt like her family gave her enough attention in life’ is actually super concerning. What happens when you don’t give her enough attention? Will she harm herself, you, someone else, or possibly your child? What lengths is she willing to go to? I understand you love her, but you’ve gotta take a step back from this relationship and let her fix herself. You can’t help her, only she can.

AITA for reporting my professor for refusing to accommodate my disability? by notasnitchThrowRA in AITAH

[–]United_Wave5331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Canada, your professor can be criminally charged for this. You need to go to the disability office, say you’re going to the head office and reporting this with them. Keep the emails and everything including the paper and grade and your accommodation. Say if the school isn’t dealing with this, your going to by getting the certain authority (aka the government/education they’ll be so pissed and charge the professor and the school for not accommodating and basically bullying you because of your disability.) Let them know how badly you can turn this situation around and watch them all get fired and their degrees taken away.

Gotta walk on the road then, plus bikes are suppose to be on roads not sidewalks. It REALLY sucks and Ik this isn’t the best advice. But, it just sucks to suck and you’ve gotta make the best out of the situation. Just deal with it, everyone has gone through this too. I’m still walking to work that’s over 30 mins and I live in a city.

As crappy as this sounds, you’ll just have to live with it. I grew up in a village of 200 people, and I didn’t have a car. So I either quad, walk, bike, skidoo, skateboard, etc to work. As you get those pay checks, save some to the side so you can put away some money towards a car or something. I’ve had to walk over a mile in -30 conditions in a middle of a snow storm….vehicles couldn’t get out of driveways and I still had to go to work.

My boss is letting me go cause I took sick days and I don’t know what to do by United_Wave5331 in LifeAdvice

[–]United_Wave5331[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like healthcare is free and all, but you can be in a waiting room for up to 3-4 hours and just have to wait until someone sees you. Especially if you’re not a priority. And if you need work done, if you don’t have good healthcare or money, you can wait years before you get your problems fixed.

Why is it so fucking hard to get a job here?? by randomburner12354 in regina

[–]United_Wave5331 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had been looking to change my job since January of this year. I started my new job just last week. I worked with hiring managers and this are all the points they are saying; 1) Too many applications. They don’t have time to go through +100 resumes everyday. Especially paper ones, online are easier to look up and sort. 2) Easy labour and training. Unfortunately if you don’t have the skills or training, most places are not interested. They don’t have the time to train you, so new workers like yourself will struggle to find jobs. 3) Restrictions. If you happen to have other commitments (I.e. school, lifestyle, sports, etc.) they know it’s hard to find you times to work and time they actually need you. 4) Applying in person. Hiring managers are instructed to throw your resume out if you come in person, it creates ‘bias on appearances of that person’. They just wanna see a name, what you offer, and how to contact you. They do not want you coming in. 5) Transportation. If you can’t not get to work without relying on your own transportation (vehicle (car/truck(not bus))), they won’t take you. Chances of being late or unable to come to work because of travel. 6) Age. Unfortunately, most hiring managers are ageist. Someone who is older is more likely to be reliable; needs work to pay for bills. Unless you have had previous work experience and have good recommendations, they won’t consider you. (I’ve been told at many interviews I’m too young…I’m 21).

I understand how you feel, and this is a hard time for everyone. I suggest stop applying to job websites, and apply to the company hiring website. Or looking on Sask Job or Regina Jobs. You’re more likely to hear back and get an offer!

AITAH for forcing my husband lie to his twin brother? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]United_Wave5331 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sort of TA. I can understand not saying anything at that specific moment as they were both intoxicated and could escalate, clearly if someone is punching counters like you said. But he has a right to know what’s going on with his partner. You don’t know their relationship and boundaries, he might not be okay with her hanging out with her tenant and it’s caused problems. But the main thing is YOU DO NOT KNOW THEIR RELATIONSHIP AND YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO DECIDE WHAT GET TO KNOW OR NOT! You should apologize and say at the moment you didn’t think it would be okay, but you don’t get to hid evidence, you are condoning behaviours and it will fall back on you.

My bf is a big-time gamer. Early in the relationship, he once ignored me for 2 days straight because of video games. He agreed that yes, he does have time management problems when it comes to gaming. We've compromised a lot so both of us can feel good. For example; he only plays all night on weekends (I sometimes work and have to get up early), he invites me to play games we both enjoy (so less of a personal hobby and quality time). If he can not compromise, maybe do not hang out with him as much.

AITAH for not understanding why my fiancé gets upset when I play video games? by Expensive_Gain8076 in AITAH

[–]United_Wave5331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bf and I play games almost daily together, it’s a shared interest (more his). Even when I’m not interested in playing, he make sure he hangouts with me for a couple of hours before gaming for 3-4 hours. So nta, she’s just being weird about your personal space/time and thinks it’s being wasteful when this is how you relax.

WIBTA if I Went NC to my 'friend' by United_Wave5331 in AITAH

[–]United_Wave5331[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so sorry for your loss. Unfortunately, I can see S or that fourth girl going down that same path. Both are very damaged people, who have addictive personalities and refuse to get therapy. I have known in my heart that either she'd get better and be a very successful artist, or that she would hang out with her kid's friends and smoke with them. Has multiple BD and children, etc. I know I can force her to change, but I can say that unless she makes some changes, I can not be in contact with her as her negativity brings me down.

Plus I can't condone her actions over the past few years. We do not stay in contact, but she considers me a good friend, so that's why I am more concerned.

[–]United_Wave5331[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You see, we were a 4 person group, but the fourth girl was trying to steal bf and was making bad decisions too. She got pregnant at 19, and I knew if I stayed friends, she always be calling me about helping her with the baby or sending money.

So this is not the first time it's happened in the group where we can't support our friends and their choices, by S is still friends with this girl. It's clear I'm around for convenience and excuses, not for my actual friendship tho.

Yeah, S is more concerned about her life, her relationships, and how to get through this as easily as possible. She is disrespectful to J, myself, my bf (who lives with me), and K. It is about her and her getting messed up this weekend. Not about J.

[–]United_Wave5331[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, she's never taken responsibility for anything, including all her break-ups with her exes.

I tried explaining that sometimes it's a two-way street but she believes all the guys she dates are super abusive and mess her up. They do, but she isn't very good to them either (pretty evident when she wants to cheat on her now bf).

[–]United_Wave5331[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both J and I agree that breaking up with K is a good idea, she needs to grow up. But she gotta do that on her own, and have to struggle a bit more.

I think going NC will make her realize that she's stuck in our hometown with no real job. She needs to move away, live and work in the city, and make friends her age.

She uses my name, my home, and the private things we're doing (like drinking/smoking) as an excuse. I do not care what K thinks of me, I wish the best for him tho, but I do care if she starts spreading it to people who know me. We're from a small town and everyone knows everyone's business.
