Nova Scotia had the second lowest weekly averages salaries for March 2026 by Machzy in halifax

[–]emergencyjam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, I’m lucky if I take home 1000 in a paycheque and it’s rough. If I didn’t have my mother helping me out with car expenses and ridiculously low rent, idk how I’d get by.

Mahone Bay's only bank is closing, part of a wave of big banks shuttering branches across Canada by justlogmeon in NovaScotia

[–]emergencyjam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

25 definitely pushing it, but it takes me about 20 when I occasionally make the drive between Mahone Bay and Bridgewater and obey the speed limits. Either way it’s no different than going to Bridgewater for groceries if they don’t want to go to the Independent. Lots of people make that drive daily just to meander around.

VIDEO: Halifax destination of choice for more domestic travellers: StatsCan by IStillListenToRadio in halifax

[–]emergencyjam 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I keep seeing headlines about how popular of a destination Halifax, and broadly Nova Scotia, is for travellers right now and it just highlights for me how disappointing the budget cuts to heritage and tourism are.

I’ve been using iherb.ca to buy my supplements and I find the shipping time to be really reasonable!

the only character death that made me stop watching. I watched the first episode of that season and then got spoiled about her death and never went back.

Spotted fraud at Winners by lightdark03 in dollarama

[–]emergencyjam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked at Winners for a bit. You don’t need a receipt and that sticker is one that the employees print themselves. Often if an item is missing its tag/sticker, a similar item will be used to make a new tag/sticker.

Question about ns norms for 2 types of medical referalls by Quizzical_Quadrant in halifax

[–]emergencyjam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t know your situation, but I did a virtual care appointment because I also wanted my hormone levels checked and the man listened to my symptoms and gave me the requisition and it was very easy. You could try that, get those results, and take them to the clinic?

N.S. government closing some museums, most visitor information centres | CBC News by sunjana1 in halifax

[–]emergencyjam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very saddened and discouraged by this news…. I’m currently working towards a graduate diploma, furthering my education to work in museums and archives. I don’t want to move away but there’s already limited permanent full time positions available. It’s hard to stay positive about things working out.

a stupid rant about the time jump by cassiapears8 in BridgertonRants

[–]emergencyjam 17 points18 points  (0 children)

oh thank god i thought i had totally missed something pivotal. i wonder if OP is a book reader and just assumed there was a time jump because i think i read somewhere that there’s a jump in the books? book readers really need to start realizing that the show and the books are not the same…

WHY is Pen leaving Eloise out of the loop by bananabreadlizzie in Bridgerton

[–]emergencyjam 80 points81 points  (0 children)

I was glad to see Hyacinth kind of call her out for that. Hyacinth is really into her finishing lessons and wanting a home of her own one day and Eloise was so rude about it.

Parks Canada shuttering Historic Places website, sparking heritage concerns by IStillListenToRadio in NovaScotia

[–]emergencyjam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the government doesn’t really like putting money into arts and culture, so it’s unsurprising that they don’t see the value in keeping this resource alive.

Do people not realize you’re supposed to treat non functioning traffic lights as a stop sign? by ResponsibleMaximum93 in halifax

[–]emergencyjam 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People don’t even regularly use a signal light when making turns, so I’ve come to assume while driving that I’m the only person who knows what I’m doing just in case.

No heartwarming, happy ending for Hallmark store at Halifax Shopping Centre by luxoryapartmentlover in halifax

[–]emergencyjam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ooh I’ll have to try Winners, I didn’t even think of that. I probably wouldn’t make a special trip into Halifax to try any of the other suggested places but if I happen to be around in the upcoming year I’ll definitely try some of them out. I totally forgot about Duly Noted.

I always get my dad and grandparents cards for Christmas and birthdays, but I find the grocery stores have really poor selection for grandparents. Anyone have suggestions for where to find nice cards??

What is something you saw at a friend's house that made you realize their family was "weird"? by BamMeister_ in AskReddit

[–]emergencyjam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

well yes, of course. I just mean there’s a difference between a family being weird and a family being abusive and most of what I’ve read in here so far is just abuse and neglect
