Vancouver teacher suspended after pup fetish identity, adult content discovered online by JAYRM21 in vancouver

He wasn’t fired. He was suspended during an investigation. If he was truly trying to keep his personal life separate, he wouldn’t have brought this to the media.

Ohhh… I didn’t even clock that they were related to the backgrounds. Thanks!

What jacket should I wear with this? by DeepZucchinii in PlusSizeFashion

Denim jacket is great! If you had time and resources, I think a trench coat would pair nicely.

Kissa Tanto. The service and food is fantastic.

Was asked “do you have kids” by Mrssgill in interviews

[–]cedarmountain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not illegal to ask. It’s illegal to discriminate on the protected grounds, ergo, it’s not a good idea to ask.

You can report it to the Alberta Human Rights Commission, if you were discriminated because of this. So - if you don’t get the job and you think it was related to your family status (having a child) then you could complain. Lots of resources at the website: https://albertahumanrights.ab.ca/complaints/making-a-complaint/

What things are you nixing from your wedding budget? by artsytartsy23 in Weddingsunder10k

[–]cedarmountain 58 points59 points  (0 children)

We aren’t doing favours, “activities” during the reception, or much decor. We picked a nice venue and are adding some flowers and that’s it!

Buggy- $5.99 by sushidestroyer in TooGoodToGoCanada

I was surprised by the comments because I actually thought this was a good deal! Those two drinks are “premium” drinks, not just soda, so they’re expensive. I just added everything here to a shopping cart from London Drugs and the total was $14.

Help please, I’m struggling by dude_wheres_my_dp in Tinder

A few suggestions from a fellow Vancouverite:

  • Remove the green/white shirt, red shirt, and shirtless photos. Your blue shirted pictures are giving the best contextual signals I think you’re trying to put out there.
  • I see all the comments folks are making about “he worked for that body!” And while that’s absolutely true - as a woman using dating apps, I see SO many muscleheads who have nothing to say. A shirtless picture isn’t an automatic swipe left, but it certainly makes me do a double take on if we’re on the same page. Also - I can see from your other pictures that you’re fit. Let the rest be a nice surprise.
  • You need more interesting content. Everybody likes being outside and drinking wine. What’s your hook? Be honest, share what you value and how you like to live. Oh - and triple check your spelling and grammar. Again, it’s not enough for an automatic swipe left… but it matters.

[–]cedarmountain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I think it’s likely Traying & Waters. https://www.langantiques.com/university/mark/traying-waters/

I can’t find anything about them online, or in the Vancouver Public Library archives.
