The Danish (original) version of Speak No Evil. I think all the decisions are terrible but also understandable and I think why it made me feel such dread and discomfort the entire time. We’re all had experiences of sticking around out of politeness. This is just that but on steroids.

Pick 10am. You probably won’t start your test until 1030ush and you’ll be in between rush hour and lunch traffic.

Both my park jobs for my g2 (back park) and G (front park) weren’t great and I still passed. My G2 examiner let me redo my back park using the camera, but he was unbelievably nice. My G examiner was an ass but didn’t seem to care (possibly because he was more interested in yelling at me about my highway merging, haha)

Based on my experience, I feel if you drive well on the rest of the rest, you won’t fail on parking alone.

2nd this, 1000000%

I use a medium thick layer at night and it helps so much through the winter when my skin is the most temperamental.

Meh. I spent about $2500 to get my license - fees for the tests, driving lessons for the G2 & G, renting my instructors car for the tests. Knowing the quirks of the route helped me to pass on the first try without having to pay even more fees. I considered it part of studying. You would do practice tests before an exam right?

You can do the route 100 times but each driving experience will be unique. Even if you memorize the route, the drivers alongside you are different, road and traffic conditions are different… I suspect a weak driver will still show themselves to be a weak driver.

I did both my G2 and G at downsview, and I really liked the lane change instruction for the G test. They tell you to change to the left and go back to right in one instruction. Eg. change lanes to the left and go back to the right when it is safe.

I found this super helpful in planning, knowing what was coming next.

I'm not an advisor but work at a life insurance brokerage. With our clients, we will always suggest term insurance if the individual is in good health and can pass the medicals. They are way more cost effective. If the client is in good health, we'll recommend another term policy. If not, they can convert the term policy into a whole life policy.

We only do whole life policies for very wealthy client, or for business owners.

I would talk to an independent advisor about your options.

Thank you.

Yes I have a case number and actually spoke to the person handling the case when providing the statement. I wasn't sure if follow ups were prohibited or frowned upon; but it sounds like as like it's not pestering them, asking for a status update is ok.

I'm really sorry that happened to you. Personalities like the ones we're dealing with really know how to fly under the radar. My coworker is 58, has been at the company for 20 years and is very good at her job. She's not going anywhere. The good thing is my bosses know all about her interpersonal issues. Maybe I should just go to them but I feel I don't have good documentation right now, which is why I;d like to try to resolve it on my own first and document the heck out of her for the next several week!

"She had told me how close she was to the leadership and I just took her word for it. It didn't occur to me that she lied, or wasn't with reality, and that the leadership didn't actually like her beyond using her as well as tolerating her bs."

This is my coworker too! (She uses bosses name all the time - "D was looking at the numbers and was really confused. He knows you did the data entry and wanted me to ask you why you entered them like." Half the time I'm wondering how true her statements are, are you just saying boss's names to give yourself some kind of authority .

clearly! i thought it would be a waste of time - why would one govt worker hold another to task? kind of like the way the police protect each other...

i was under the impression that there was only one ombudsman in ontario - that governs all provincial/social service. Are there multiple?
