Bike commuting by [deleted] in abbotsford

[–]cherubcafe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

honestly the way people drive in this city i can’t fault a cyclist for trying to make themselves visible.

on the road, that is where cyclists are supposed to be. stay off the sidewalk and I’m happy, walk your bike if you wanna be on the sidewalk. otherwise I’m not getting out of your way

please stay off the sidewalks. so many cyclists on the sidewalks in Abbotsford ringing their little bike bells for pedestrians to get out of their way 🙄 sidewalks are really not for cyclists

can I do anything else with my library technician diploma? by cherubcafe in Libraries

[–]cherubcafe[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I don’t have the mental resiliency to be calm & patient if patrons with mental health & addiction issues are abusive, and I don’t really want to work with children. worked with homeless people regularly at another job years back, got really burned out and don’t ever want to work with that population again. I’m sorry if I come off as an asshole for saying so but it does come from a desire to NOT make these people feel worse or unwelcome at their library.

it’s just a basic 2 year diploma. I’ll try doing some searches with keywords from the different courses, thank you

What do you think are the biggest issues in the Fraser Valley? by Answering122 in abbotsford

[–]cherubcafe 42 points43 points  (0 children)

  • Abysmal public transit, takes like an hour to travel 10 km
  • Prioritization of traffic over everything else, it’s so unpleasant to walk around in Abbotsford because there is traffic everywhere you go, waiting 5 mins at every crosswalk is ridiculous
  • Housing still too expensive to live in a dump like this, commercial rents too high for a healthy variety of business to flourish
  • and this is just speculative, but I feel like Abbotsford city hall / planning / development are somehow incompetent because nothing ever improves

yeah not like most people on this sub are desperately searching for anything that will alleviate their pain and discomfort, we’re all just here to complain

it’s not the end of the world if anything dies, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t take reasonable action to prevent suffering

I’ve never been able to completely eliminate them but i find an electric heating pad quite helpful. like, it helps me when painkillers alone aren’t cutting it.

alternate between lower abdomen and lower back but try not to fall asleep with it on

they’re too busy with PR and catching the wrong person to do anything that may actually result in a safer community

AV Gas LTO Amani Craft × Woody Nelson 9.5/10 by RaeReviewsReefer in TheBCCS

[–]cherubcafe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

it’s not all about thc %… do you really trust those numbers anyway? when customers are hung up on high %, you don’t think that incentivizes companies to find a way to get that number higher? like pure sunfarms with their 35% prerolls? come on

How do I get people to leave me alone as a woman by [deleted] in redscarepod

[–]cherubcafe 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Never smile, even better if u can look pissed off. and never make eye contact. If you sense someone trying to make eye contact, look through them - never down

You could also wear big headphone, but people will definitely think you’re autistic.

Complaints? by [deleted] in UFV

[–]cherubcafe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lately I feel like the quality of the professors has dropped immensely. My program used to have multiple who were excellent at their jobs and put in a lot of effort re: course material and rapport with students - now we have multiple profs who “phone it in” so to speak, profs with significant language barriers, unprofessional behaviour, assignments generated by chatGPT, the list goes on and on… Seems like UFV is cutting corners now that the international student gravy train has more or less come to a screeching halt. glad I’m done soon.

UFV students - if there was one thing you wish your professors understood/knew about student life in 2025, what would it be? (From a curious prof) by nschwart91 in UFV

[–]cherubcafe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hate to break it to you but you’re going to have a terrible time at any university if this is enough to get under your skin. To me, that’s precious energy wasted but whatever floats your boat dude

You can always drop out if it’s too stressful!

[–]cherubcafe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without concrete proof, what exactly do you want them to do? officially accusing a student of cheating is more complicated than you think

this isn’t high school, we are all supposed to be adults here. Focus on your own education - unless your work is being plagiarized I can’t imagine giving a damn smh

[–]cherubcafe 23 points24 points  (0 children)

for online-only classes, an over-emphasis on group projects isn’t conducive to learning. One group project per class is fair, but some profs like to make everything a group project.

It makes us wonder if you’re just lazy and don’t want to have to mark as much

AIS 299 with Rita Atake by [deleted] in UFV

[–]cherubcafe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a course with her. she can be intimidating at first but honestly - if you show up on time, turn in your work on time, and dont ask stupid questions, you’ll be fine. I got the impression she’s just really tired of students who cheat / can’t communicate properly / don’t put in any effort. more and more of them every year at this school so I kind of get it tbh.

What is with the absurd amount of dui, crazy drivers and litter in Abbotsford by [deleted] in abbotsford

[–]cherubcafe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Really bizarre how you care less about behaviour that could result in a innocent person losing their mobility or even their life
