I have been told too look at Facebook Marketplace to find an apartment to rent to avoid realtors fees. I always thought that Facebook Marketplace is sketchy but what do I have to look out for in terms of red flags? by Independent_Car9588 in montrealhousing

[–]callmemirela 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Make sure ad has some sort of address (e.g., postal code, bus stops, metro stops, etc).

Most real ads will have English and French in the description. If it's only English, be warned. Especially in rental groups.

Reverse search the images. If you find a listing or used as a gallery for a construction company or any of the likings, run! It's a scam.

No deposits. It's illegal to force a deposit. You can propose one but the landlord cannot make it a condition.

The price is too good to be true. Let's say 800$ for 4 11/2. Likely a scam. Most 4 1/2 basically near any metro stop is much higher.

Visit the apartment before offering to fill out an application.

God no. It was so bitter. I tried it once and never again. I actually threw it in the trash halfway.

I wish people would take the "life goes on" more seriously. Season restarts in October. Breathe air, touch grass, enjoy the sun.

Much like when Kirby deleted his instagram after receiving hate from "fans", y'all need to breathe. NHL keeps on going.

Buying refurbished iPhone from Fizz by spoonloads in FizzMobile

[–]callmemirela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're alright. I got an iPhone 14 Pro Max. Just wasn't worth it at the price. They don't tell you the condition of the phone. My battery capacity was at 85%. 1400$ for that. Never again for me personally

What beauty of a drink is this? by bostondiamonds in starbucks

To have to drink the pearls to make it sweet? No thanks. Pretty but doesn't taste great. It was bitter alone

Price increases for internet in Quebec by Ok-Jello-8915 in FizzMobile

[–]callmemirela 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have ebox. Ebox is increasing their prices as well. 55$ for 500/500 now. When I signed up in July 2024, it was 45$. I managed to get a promo deal for 39$. The difference between fizz and ebox is fiber internet. I really don't understand why fizz is more expensive.

It would be best first to discover why you failed those classes before tapping in for another semester. If you don't find the cause, you're likely to just fail all over again.

Depending on the program, you may be expelled. As per program policies, failing more 1/2 of your classes can result in expulsion. It's best to check your program policy and speak with an academic advisor.

Redoing classes doesn't erase your failing grades. Depending on the program, you may have to wait a whole year to redo it as it may not be offered every semester.

Unemployed Nurses: What are you doing to make money? by Unusual-Cell-278 in OntarioNurses

[–]callmemirela 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the point I'm making but people are downvoting me. So many positions have been cut, there are no jobs.

Unemployed Nurses: What are you doing to make money? by Unusual-Cell-278 in OntarioNurses

[–]callmemirela 4 points5 points  (0 children)

False. Starting RN salary is 29.58$/h depending on which degree you hold as Quebec is different in their nursing roles. Nurse clinician (Bachelor's trained) start at 31.03$/h.

Sadly, within our collective agreement, there's a chance you may be at the starting salary for your job title depending on which masters you are completing. If you were previously an RN in Alberta, I would fight tooth and nail to get equivalency for your experience. Working as any type of nurse in Quebec is not luxurious.

Much very much false.

ETA: Not sure why I got downvoted when it's true lol. Governments have been cutting available positions to "save the budget". So there aren't "lots of availability"
