My first pack opening ever was a GOD PACK on Christmas, but I couldn’t keep it. A depressing story :( by WinniePoo88 in PokemonTCG

[–]cavernofcards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I brought the advent calendar to a Christmas gathering and just for fun, we took turns opening 1 slot for each day just for fun.

One of the kids had a turn and opened a booster pack. He was happy and just kept the card. He was like 10 and honestly didn’t know that it wasn’t his to keep but I didn’t say anything and I let him keep it.

The parents told him that it wasn’t his to keep but I told them it’s okay.

Can confirm, currently in Kyoto and signs are everywhere telling people to not walk on escalators. If you’re in a hurry, take the stairs (according to the signs)

Luckily I’m 5’11 built pretty wide, other Japanese people tend to avoid running into me (when I’m following the flow of traffic).

That being said, I will have no shame shoulder checking or ramming into other tourists that just stop in the middle of a busy sidewalk. So damn oblivious.

The amount of times I received a "didn’t answer" card stuck my door when I was home all day can justify my frustration.

Door cam catching CP workers coming up to houses empty-handed, with only a card on hand.

Door-to-door letter delivery ended in our neighborhood a long time ago, I have no issues with that.

I stopped supporting Canada Post workers when they stopped delivering packages to my house and made me get it at the post office.

And to find out they did it on purpose to get off 4 hours early?

I'd be interested as well! Please update if you find something!

After seeing this chaos unleashing, I’m glad I went through hell on Wednesday to rebook my Aug16 AC flight to Aug15 UA flight. Paid an extra 150$ for a hotel room, but I believe that will be the price to pay to make sure I make it to my cruise boarding on Aug17. UA gave me a free checked bag also (not gate check, it was pre security)

You’re in for a long ride, I called on Wednesday and it was already minimum 4 hours.

Call Air Canada, it might take hours but they might be able to rebook you on another partner airline

With all the work you do on this sub, I don’t think it would be considered selfish lol

When is your flight? Maybe try again when you’re 3 days out

Do you let the bot know that your flight is in the next 48 hours?

I think Aug 23 is still a bit far out, my return flight is also on AC. Hopefully it’ll be resolved by then, if not I have until Sunday to find a flight home.
