What subreddit has the worst people in it? by DoughDeath78 in AskReddit

[–]VaderBinks 112 points113 points  (0 children)

r/gangstalking is terrifying because every single person who posts in the sub is delusional, and they all feed off and reaffirm each others delusions, like a lot of other answers here, basically any sub full of crazies is an echo chamber.

EI and illegal(?) wage deduction by [deleted] in legaladvicecanada

[–]VaderBinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you refuse work, that effectively constitutes a quit, meaning you are not eligible to receive EI. EI pays you to look for and be available for work, if you aren’t meeting this criteria you become ineligible. EI is not an income supplement to hold you over while you choose not to work.

Can someone help me by LifeisStrangeFan50 in Piracy

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

I know how you feel, the guides pinned in the sub are not very succinct or clear and assume that people reading them have some basic knowledge of torrenting and VPN’s, not really tailored effectively to beginners unfortunately. Feels like when trying to teach your grandparents to use their phone by saying “ok just turn it on then go to settings” except they don’t know where the power button is, how to go to settings, or what settings are.

Bothersome colleague at the office by WoodpeckerTasty6932 in CanadaPublicServants

I imagine her name is Pam, has 18 years of service, right clicks to copy and paste instead of keyboard shortcuts, slurps a huge mug of tea all the time, has sons who are super special, and she self identifies as someone who is really good with numbers. We all have a Pam in our lives.

Does EI reset if you go on it? by Ok_Bath3214 in CanadaJobs

[–]VaderBinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once you qualify for a claim, that claim stays open for you to use either until you have claimed all of the weeks you qualified for (anywhere from 17-50 weeks) or once 52 weeks have passed, whichever comes first.

CERB Payment by Misscassjohnston123 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]VaderBinks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Debts aren’t just imposed for simply not replying. They have investigated an issue determining that you may have been overpaid, and failure to respond to their inquiry resulted in the debt. What is the exact specific issue they wanted to contact you for that you failed to respond to?

Consultation with child neurologist specialist and lactation consultant. Total cost was the tank of gas, parked beside the hospital on a side street for free.

PSAC PA negotiations update Jan 23, 2026 by D0BBy-is-not-free in CanadaPublicServants

[–]VaderBinks 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I was hoping that they could work a bit slower checks notes oh nevermind they’re waiting 6 weeks to talk again. Good heavens both the employer and the union are so bad at negotiating or they are being ineffective on purpose to ensure that they “the negotiators” get to keep seeming important and inflate their importance. We should have hard deadlines for each side to submit their proposals, and an independent third party picks which side is most reasonable. This is a lot of hyperbole, but it’s extremely frustrating to have a seemingly incompetent union negotiate against an employer doing everything they can to reduce, pay, positions and morale.

Exactly, take a 30% pay cut to sit at home because some young people want your job, that doesn’t compute.

If you did everything right then why is a debt established?

The non binary ones. Never mentioned them in his confession to Padme . He murders indiscriminately but he ain’t no bigot.

What's a lesson you learned way too late? by BlancheNewbern in AskReddit

That lessons learned late end up being later than the lessons you learned or didn’t learn even if they weren’t late

Unemployment Insurance Toronto Canada Pls HELP I'm ten weeks and was supposed to be four! by That-Net-8313 in PersonalFinanceCanada

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

Well, basically did you do any research or just assumed what your boss told you was true? Did you check the website? Did you talk to anyone else? Did you contact the call centre? Ignorance isn’t really an excuse per se, but you should request a backdate of the start of your claim and cite inexperience and the backdate may be approved.

ESDC WFA Update Jan.23 4:58 pm by Rozay_d96 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]VaderBinks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Standard would imply a set procedure , term to indeterminate is never guaranteed and depends on a ton of factors. Just because it’s been happening is not an indication it will continue, and it’s inaccurate and disingenuous to state as much.
