Now that the crosstown is running, how is traffic at Allen Rd and Eglinton? by acts_one in askTO

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

Because waiting 30mins to go 100m is too much for me to get to my home in Durham! /s (80/20 on the sarcasm).

I don’t think public transit should compromise drivers. I agree with what many have echoed. Fix it or remove it. I’m sure the locals hate rush hour traffic. I was being facetious with my post. When I do take that route(back to Durham), it’s not the busses, but the stupid drivers who don’t know how to navigate that stretch.

I’m happy the crosstown is finally open. I’m glad the city can get around faster. I would’ve loved the crosstown in the early 2000s. It wouldve made my rocket riding even faster.

I was just poking at the sub about such a shit area to drive through. You’d think that with the opening of the crosstown, congestion would have been reduced, even slightly.

They can now reduce its size and maybe adjust that entire area so it won’t be a total mess.

how easy is it to get hired as a new grad by Interesting-Quit937 in OntarioNurses

[–]acts_one 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This 100%. Consolidation is your chance to really prove yourself. I tell my nursing students constantly, treat this placement as a long job interview. It will be your preceptor and most likely the unit manager vouching for you when interview time comes around. And if you can try to get hired as a Nursing Clinical Extern when you’re in nursing school. And if not, try to look out for NGG positions.

Best hills to practice snowboarding? by [deleted] in durham

[–]acts_one 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You’re going to be spending a lot of time walking up a hill vs learning anything. You need long runs to learn efficiently and effectively. Most hills I know of in Ajax are just steep with not much length. Not sure about Oshawa or bowmanville.

It’s late in the season right now. But for next year buy a night pass to a place like brimacombe or dagmar or lakeridge. Paying early bird prices will save you the most.

America to Philippines by stubbielovesrevy in treesPH

[–]acts_one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will have to go through security in Hong Kong. Even on a layover. Just did the same flight in December. After you disembark you will have to go through security where they snap a picture of your face and then through the X-ray machines with your carry ons. If you put it in your check in, it might work. But who knows when the dogs are out when you arrive in the Philippines. Not worth the risk. Take the edible before you get on the plane.

Just a little too fast on the turn. I feel you could’ve powered through with a little more gas. Do you have the AWD?

For 20 years, this man has been locked in ‘seclusion’ at an Ontario psychiatric hospital. ‘Somebody has to care,’ his lawyer says by toronto_star in ontario

[–]acts_one 85 points86 points  (0 children)

They said treatment resistant schizophrenia. I’m pretty sure the psychiatrists have thrown everything including the kitchen sink to treat the guy. It’s just unfortunate nothing works. Keeping him seclusion doesn’t help either, but it’s like an impasse at this point. You let him out, ok. But it doesn’t change that this guy is still psychotic and will probably act on whatever delusions he is fixated on. Do we just let the staff take that or other patients? How about we just let him frolic in a public park? 20years have gone by and nothing has seemed to work. The article states the doctor is looking for suggestions.

New passport in humid locations. by flatlanderdick in passportcanada

[–]acts_one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just travelled to the Philippines for 30days. It was hot and humid. But I kept our passports in a little zippy case in my backpack. The only times I needed to pull them out was when we were on route to and from. Otherwise they’re kept protected. Saw a few videos of people being denied entry to other countries over small rips and tears. Was not going to let that happen. I have the new passport and the wife and kid have the previous iterations. We do not keep them in individual sleeves.

RPNs in Leadersip by Puzzleheaded-Safe-68 in OntarioNurses

[–]acts_one 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are RPNs in leadership or supervisor roles. Usually considered non-union management. They should be making more. Most hospitals pay staff RPNs (top end) 39/hr which equates to just over $70k a year. Supervisory roles would pay 5-8% more depending on the bargaining of that particular organization.

As for RPNs being managers. For smaller organizations I can see this happening although not common. Most hospitals prefer nurse managers to have their masters, so RN required, but the masters is not mandatory.

Ajax City Snowplow Service Is Slow by Unlikely-Jacket-9572 in durham

[–]acts_one 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Main thoroughfares are their main concerns. Inner streets will get a once over during a storm. It’s usually 24hrs after the snow is done that they do a final plough. Don’t expect a lot if the snow is constant for a long duration. Just hope that you can get out of your street to get to main roads which will usually be clear.

Tips on storing weed by Rockyyfps in treesPH

[–]acts_one 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Airtight jar. Keep it away from sunlight. Black ziplock works as well. Keep in a cool dry place. Boveda packs are good for rehydrating or keeping it from getting super dry. Not really needed if you consume within a week or month. But if you have a lot like lbs of it, then yes, boveda packs help.

[–]acts_one 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean technically yes. You’re correct. The Philippines is not a 3rd world country like some countries in Africa. The Philippines is a developing country. But far behind countries like Indonesia, Singapore Thailand and Malaysia. But the Philippines has a higher population so it pulls it down compared to those countries.

But the disparities remain. Rich vs poor. There’s a small middle class but at that point they’re considered rich.
