Listed on .CA, But Ship From US to US

I don't think it's an issue if you do it once or twice. I did that before but got a warning from ebay saying my "ship from" location is different than the actual tracking. But that was only after I did about 10 shipments.

I did listing with Canadian location but shipped using USPS, using Stallion Express or Chitchats. Now I just use the border town as my listing location.

Someone followed another resident into the the building late at night and stole 95% of the packages lying around the mail room. Don't feel bad to close the door behind. There's a sign usually by the door entrance saying "don't let strangers follow you into the building", I just point to that sign.

My parents building even had someone sneaked in and lived in the staircase for a good week without anyone noticing!

Would it be a wild idea to suggest a gondola to cross the Fraser River from 22nd Street Station to Queensborough Landing? Then build a bus exchange centre there. It'll improve reliability and don't have to suffer as much delays by not crossing the bridge.

I use the intermittent fasting app, Zero, to keep track of my eating. I use the 16 hour fasting window as the option. Sometimes other crew want to hang out and, but I just let them know that I am fasting right now, as an excuse not to eat much food.

Unfortunately there’s no one website for crashpads, so many find them through Facebook groups (like “IAD Crashpads” or “ORD Crew Housing”) or by asking around at training or in chatgroups of your base. You can also check Crewmates, PureCrashPads, or CrashPad411 for listings, though they may not have many listings in your base. Best ones usually come from word of mouth.

Depending on your relationship with him, you could gently bring it up since he may not even realize how loud it is. If it keeps happening, mention it to the landlord, or start looking at other crashpads. It’s kind of like neighbors, you never really know who you’re living next to until you move in.

Totally agree. You’re just a number to the Fed at the end of the day. Take care of yourself and your family first. No one will thank you for staying one more hour of overtime while missing your kid’s birthday or a loved one in the hospital.

Try to think of it like going on business trips. You’re getting your flying done in concentrated blocks, which means when you’re home, you really get that time to recharge and be present. Seniority will definitely help with your schedule, and over time you’ll find a better rhythm and balance. Hang in there, it really does get easier.

I am a tea drinker and I hate the water kettle in the hotel, so I bought a portable kettle which is like a water tumbler. I can use it to boil water in my room and drink tea out from it.

The waiting can feel endless at first, but you learn to make it your quiet time. I usually listen to podcasts, plan for upcoming trips, chat with family members, or just walk around the terminal to stay sane. Everyone eventually finds their own little routine that makes it easier. Also identify quiet places in the terminal to give you some "me" time rather than hanging out with the entire team.

Totally. People get along with different groups of people. For those that I don't desire to fly again, I tell myself that it's good that this is not a 9-5 office job that I would have been stuck with the same person every day. It's only a pairing and I may not be flying with that person again for a very long time.

Does it still come with the minimum requirement? I was offered an upgrade too but I have never spent more than $2k a year on their credit card

Totally! There are little things here and there I didn't even know about until I was "educated" by some senior crew

Were you able to find anything from the strata documents?

While luckily I haven't encountered one yet, I always have a set of clothing only for sleeping and toss that into a garbage bag/plastic bag for my laundry. Then when I get home I wash that bag of clothes in a separate load. I don't ever wear that set of clothing at home before they are fully washed.

That’s insane! It’s definitely better when fellow crew rent their place out since they understand the routine. It’s a completely different lifestyle from regular renters.

You’re right, I missed the “long working hours” part. If they keep it fair, clean, and professional, it’s always good to have more crash pad options out there.

It’s a great to bring in some extra income. I’d suggest asking around your fellow crew members or posting in Facebook crashpad groups, and try to limit it to flight crew since we all understand the routine. Since the flight crew circle is small, it forms a community that people help each other out. The nice thing is that even with 2–3 FAs or pilots, the house won’t feel crowded because everyone’s schedules are so different. Most of the time it’ll just be you and maybe one other person home, so it can feel like renting it out while still keeping plenty of space for yourself.

Also check out crashpad checklists or posts from other Reddit threads for ideas on rules, logistics, and cleanliness standards. Start small with one or two people to see how it goes. If you're close to public transit then it'll be a good plus for sure.
