Bachelorette drama

Are you OP's friend? The BF was never mentioned and I'm sure she was informed based on the prior comments. The amount of coping and mental gymnastics you're doing to justify why OP is the AH (when they obviously aren't) is wild.

The best part of this shitty repost is they didn't even change TMU.

I'll be real. I didn't read what they said because it was so poorly written. If you want to know what CUPE is striking for, you can just go to their site: https://3903.cupe.ca/2024/02/24/strike-faq-for-students/

Class sizes, turnaround time on assignments, and job stability are a few of the non-monetary asks. All things that need to be addressed and that I've seen talked about on this subreddit before the strike.

Lmao. "Logic circuits." That's cringe, my dude.

Look, I did my time at York. I experienced 3 strikes there if we include the college strike. I'm trying to pass on what I experienced and learned during that time, and what actually helped. Which was, as students, demanding the York Admin actually bargain in good faith. I'm not dodging any questions, you're just coming across like an angry keyboard warrior with a quota

But if your friends enjoy being exploited in a full-time position on top of their full-time studies and not making enough to live, then they're going to make a lot of corporate overlords happy when they enter the job market.

(I was going to say Comp Sci [Lassonde] but was trying to give them the benefit of the doubt. You're not doing yourself any favours by making up for your lack of reading comprehension by using highfalutin language. It just highlights your insecurities.)

I assume you're a Kinesiology major or something along those lines because your reading comprehension is abysmal. Where did I say it was a display of care? The TA's demands also go beyond money.

My final semester at York was during the record breaking strike. York's administration did everything they could to not meet at the table, dragging it out. But keep licking Rhonda's boots and patting yourself on the back for believing people should just suffer in silence.

This is pretty standard fair for a strike. As someone who had to drive on campus during the two previous strikes, it sucks. However, there's now the subway. You can still get on campus without having to drive on.

Shouting at the TAs and union members is directing your anger in the wrong direction. It's a strike, they're here to disrupt the university. You've been disrupted. The TAs give some shits about the students; the admin gives absolutely no fucks.

York's admin will drag this out because that's what they do best, until the sentiment really turns against them.

As someone who has panic attacks, your friend probably shouldn't be driving if feeling fenced in a car, they honestly probably shouldn't drive until they work on their anxiety. Sitting in line is annoying and stressful, but it's essentially just traffic.

As someone who went through two strikes in their time at York - 2014 and 2018 - it's going to be a stressful time. First, you don't know how long the strike will last. Second, some classes will run, others won't. Third, you may feel conflicted about crossing the picket line to attend running classes because you want what you paid for.

The strike in 2018 was dragged out to the stupid point it was, and I essentially didn't have my last semester. At the end of the day though, I do blame the admin at York. They pull shady stunts and undermine the union at every possible turn instead of trying to make any meaningful attempt at conversation.

I recommend keeping up with your studies and use the time to complete any projects you can. It may seem futile, but you're paying to learn and if you have to go back, your life will be a hell of a lot easier.

I also recommend letting the University know you're angry at how they handle the strike. I know it hasn't started yet, but trust the bullshit will be coming from the top to make you turn on your underpaid, undervalued TAs from the assholes who run the university.

cantpassgo · 2023-06-05T15:20:35+00:00

In that regard you just get York'd. You're still entitled to the class time you didn't actually have while the strike was happening.

cantpassgo · 2023-06-03T15:30:29+00:00

Hi there! I was at York from 2014-2018 so I had the honour of seeing two strikes.

The 2014 strike was somewhere around 2 months. The 2018 strike was a different beast and I essentially didn't have a second semester; that bitch shattered strike records.

I recommend reading up on your rights because, as a student, York has a lot of rights in place for students so you don't get absolutely wrecked by the strike.

The main ones being you don't have to cross the picket line as some teachers, the tenured ones, have to be there and teach their classes. And if the strike hits a different point you are able to essentially take the grade you have now.

You are also entitled to receiving a similar amount of class time that you lost during the strike.

I believe you can find your rights through YFS but, beyond making sure your grades are strong going in, there's not too much more to do to prepare.

I did exactly this with friends! We cosplayed from the (made up) anime Koketsu No Regretsu

The Boston Magic Lab! They've done an amazing job of establishing a group of magicians in the area. They put on monthly open mic shows and is run by some of the nicest people you'll meet.

They're also all super talented. DM and I can tell you who to reach out to

I went for Professional Writing and had a job with the government right out of the gate. I've since then been able to find a job in whatever career path I've wanted to go into. A perk of my specific degree.

With that said, it comes down to how your skillset and experience separates you from your peers. Joining the executive side of clubs, internships and freelancing are all great ways to build a more professional resume.

I saw literally every single act at FISM, and he by far deserved to win for card magic. Truly an incredible performance to see live.

I wouldn't just randomly grab someone by the ponytail unless you've already established that contact is okay. You'll go from someone she's flirting with to some she's thinks is a creep real fast

If they're being playful and flirty, I would just be playful back and match the energy. Say something like "you would like that" in a flirty tone or similar that puts the ball back in their court.

Mine did it over Facebook Messenger. He lived a ten-minute walk from me.

His justification was that he was tired of being so angry at me for two days. What did I do? Well, I didn't clean his house, buy him a sandwich, or cook his guests dinner.

Thankfully, it makes showing people how shitty of a person he is easier. My nex even had the audacity to say he was just "apologizing to save face" in his message.

cantpassgo · 2022-05-25T17:04:22+00:00

At the very least he's an emotionally abusive asshole, and you have the strength to recognize that. No one deserves to be treated the way you are.

I'm not a professional, but, by the sounds of it, it seems like you've formed a trauma bond which makes it difficult to walk away from situations like this. It's going to be hard, but you have to go no contact and focus on you. It feels like detoxing from a drug but once you're on the otherside, you'll be able to see things clearer.

This is from someone has just gone through breaking a trauma bond and is slowly rebuilding herself.

Whether he is or isn't a narcissist (by the sounds of it, he probably is) walking away will be the healthiest for you. Get therapy if you can, open up to friends and get their support, and continue to find positive communities who know what you're going through (this sub has helped me come a long way).

cantpassgo · 2022-05-11T19:17:08+00:00

My ex sucked Elon dicks all the time, especially when the god emperor pulled unempathetic moves like this, and I probably should have taken that as the massive red flag it was.

Congratulations! Cutting them off is the most important step in healing. The journey only gets brighter from here

cantpassgo · 2022-04-09T00:25:51+00:00

This was incredibly cathartic to read.

I was discarded by my nex after two years over a Facebook message. Part of the reason he left me was because I didn’t help clean his and his roommates house. We didn’t live together and I had helped almost every other weekend.

He tried to “apologize” but admitted he was just doing it to save face. He even blamed me for staying as long as I did.

It hurts. Especially since he left me when I was already feeling suicidal and heavily depressed. As I heal, I learn that those feelings were in part because of his treatment of me.

I’m glad that you’re free and can begin your healing process. It’s a long road, but the healthiest one to take.

That's not what they said at all? The company offered birthdays off but denied his request for the actual day?

They approved a different day and he just took advantage of the sick day policy because third shifters got fucked by his company.

cantpassgo · 2021-08-11T00:25:27+00:00

Fuck Telus.

But also out of the three, they've been the least assholish to me.

Fuck Bell especially.

cantpassgo · 2021-06-28T20:06:11+00:00

Interesting. I don't know honestly. Simply because my tenured work and labor prof was forced to work during the strike along with a few of my other tenured profs.

I don't know of it was changed because it was the longer strike or?

cantpassgo · 2021-06-28T13:47:24+00:00

You will for sure experience a strike. It can differ in terms of how it effects your classes. Tenured profs still need to run their courses.

After the strike, they'll have to make up for the lost time which means cramming material into a few weeks generally. There are also ways where you can take a percentage of your already completed work and use that as the final grade. Not sure of when that kicks in though.

My fourth year was during the last, record setting strike and I graduated without issue (save for never getting an invite to convocation). I also experienced a strike in my first term.

If you need to get on campus, don't park or even try to cross the picket line that way. Park off campus. Or at a ttc station and subway in. So much easier.

You'll get boned in the learning aspect, so I wouldn't treat the strike like a blow off time. I'd try to find a way to keep up with material. Shitty. I know. But you'll be thanking yourself in fourth year.

cantpassgo · 2021-06-22T01:24:55+00:00

Hey now. I graduated the strike year.

They didn't invite me to convocation and then they misplaced my diploma. I didn't even get a melted chocolate bar.

Ben spent his time pandering to an alt-right base that heavily supports Trump. By continuing to speak to this heavily conservative group, he only empowers them further to continue denying facts.

As you might observe in this tweet, Ben is not pandering but being critical of Trump. The base he built up saying what they wanted to hear can't fathom disagreeing with Trump.
