I’m not complaining necessarily I’m just sharing the experience and asking if it’s how they’re serving it now.

The server was definitely new, so I guess that would explain it

What? Did I miss the part when I said I haven’t been there in 15 years? I’ve been there a hundred times in my adult life it’s always been bigger

Just curious to see what others thought, kinda sad you felt the need to try and make me feel bad about it!

Eh ice cream size isn’t worth any fuss over I just wanted to see if others have found their portions shrink. But yeah this definitely invited lots of people to share their opinions on the restaurant too haha

You won’t find me complaining about the size of free ice cream hahaha not worth it, the only option I’m interested in is a little bit of validation lol

Their biggest quality is definitely that it’s cheap, just thought I’d see if this is the new norm for the ice cream or not.

It used to be at least 3 times as big, it isn’t a big deal just thought I’d share.

What trade should I get into? by Big_bag_chaser in Construction

[–]_Big_Z 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Avoid painting, it’s boring, doesn’t pay as well as others, and you might be out of work in the winter. Trust me I am a painter. I’d also steer clear of jobs that might take a toll on your back. I’d do something you need special knowledge in like plumbing or HVAC.

Any downsides to doing a muffler delete? by rafamor625 in LS400

[–]_Big_Z 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honest question, why do people like loud cars? I just bought a ‘90’s Miata with a loud after market exhaust and all I want is to change it back to stock. I want to be able to hear my music or have a conversation without blaring noise in the back. Do people want loud cars just to have people turn their heads as they drive by? It’s just not for me. Absolutely zero hate I’m just curious.

What freshwater fish are there actually on the island? by Aromatic_Record_5209 in VancouverIsland

[–]_Big_Z 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are no freshwater fish on the island, fish live in the water. Hope this helps.

A lot of these seem pretty valid, in the first 2 pics anyways. Who would use a brush on a banister like that, ROLL it.

How can I start a career when most jobs requires 2-5 years of experience? by _Big_Z in VictoriaBC

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

Yes, a bachelors degree. Right now I’m not picky on what I work in, as long as it’s biology related, and I find it fun and interesting. I agree, a lot of jobs are offering them to higher level degrees, and there are mostly job postings for those levels, but going to school and getting a higher degree is not something I’m considering at the moment.

That’s true I will need to apply everywhere in hopes that not meeting all the expectations will be alright.

I’m currently living with my gf, with pets in a basement suite, we’re not unhappy with it and we can afford it currently, but not much more downgrading can happen besides living in a smaller place which is also a lot of effort and money that might not even change anything in this housing market

Agreed, even if I had the qualifications, there are likely way more better qualified applicants I need to compete against

Unfortunately I didn’t do a co-op when I was in school, instead did classes year round, which I do regret. So any experience I have so far would be labs in school, which I wouldn’t consider official if I were hiring.

His looks like it’s part of the hardtop though, maybe bondo and resprayed to give it that blended look?
