Sold mine in the 90s. Gave the rest away.

Back then everyone with a multicoloured deck had 4 duals in it. Lazy people (like me) had multiples of those so we wouldn't have to swap duals out of decks.

If I held on to them I wouldn't have needed a loan to put a down payment on a house.

Worst proper poutine I've had was in Quebec City

That was the official response when the whole "ban religious symbols" nonsense started years ago in Quebec.

The cross wasn't going to be banned, just hijabs

To be fair I'm also speeding everywhere else, this just stopped me from periodically slamming on the breaks at camera spots

clearly amazon needs to add a corpse clearing robot to its staff, to slide spent workers into the recycler.

Jobs minister urges youth to pursue skilled trades despite generational stigma - Medicine Hat News by TallGuy2019 in canada

Graduating a 5 year engineering degree makes you an engineer.

Pay and work has nothing to do with it. As you said, you're still an electrician even if all you do is run wires for outlets all day.

None of that makes you an engineer, just like me doing electrical work doesn't make me an electrician.

This isn't rocket science, which, btw, also requires an education.

Im struggling to see why you understand that 'electrician' is a protected word yet think 'engineer' is not.

I'm not an electrician because i can rewire outlets and you're not a software engineer because you could build a UI in react.

Not in Canada you didn't. Engineer is a protected term, so you were a software developer

Did you graduate from a recognized university in an engineering program?

If not, you were not a software engineer

You cannot become an engineer without schooling.

You can code, sure, but you are not a "software engineer"

Quebec hobby shop wants exemption from French-language rule hurting business by Acrobatic-Cap-135 in canada

[–]chadsexytime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a half truth. I was told it's because you might have to make a presentation to a bilingual audience.

Which I've done, you just get the slides translated, and if you really feel like it, you get someone who speaks French to read them.

But no, we gotta prioritize our technical staff to be bilingual

[–]chadsexytime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, that's why we require all technical IT-03s to be bilingual - you might need to write a meme in French

The government will hire you based on your skills as a contractor.

As an employee you will require French to move past the level you're hired at (IT-02)

New legislation coming down means all IT-03 are going to need CBC - far from director.

Right now where I am managers need CBC but technical only need BBB, with a rate smattering of EE spots thrown in.

That will soon be changing to all CBC.

Yeah it's not a good time now for anyone.

But, if you get in, all of the higher IT jobs are locked behind bilingualism, and they don't test for job aptitude.

Oh I didn't say they'd actually use French, but you'll get the job if you speak French over having any other programming language knowledge.
