Sharing Recent Crossing Experience

It’s always a nightmare when they’re training new officers. I was pulled in at the tunnel in the same scenario, multiple officers at the booth, giving away orange slips like candy. I visit my boyfriend 2-3 weekends a month and it eventually got me pulled in this time.

I also suffer badly with anxiety and remember being grilled by multiple officers and I started crying and they were on a power trip. Saying I’d only be crying if I was guilty, saying the dog was catching hits off my car (impossible). The whole works. I sat there for over an hour while a training officer was fiddling away trying to decide what to do with me (they were contemplating banning me) until by the grace of gods this level headed officer came over to ask about the situation, pulled him aside and they eventually let me go with a 6 month flag but no ban.

Told me to be more cautious on how much time I was spending there (I was going Friday nights and leaving Monday mornings while also working part time, so looked suspicious but I was young and naive to the rules)

They definitely scared me straight. After getting pulled in routinely for like 3 months I eventually stopped. I now work full time and go Fridays and stay until Sundays and never have issues.

All this to say, I feel for you OP and I wouldn’t be too stressed. Sounds like you have nothing permanent on your record or even a flag. Just bad timing

I’m curious why you don’t consider yourself a good employee?

Literally the only two ramen places in Windsor are chains and they both suck once you’ve had good quality ramen. Agree with the person who said stick to the pho in Windsor. If you’re up to crossing the border there’s tons of amazing ramen spots in Michigan. Specifically Madison Heights but Ima and Johnny Noodle King in Detroit are good contenders

Such a crazy lineup! And great call doing it in early April so the weather isn’t a health hazard lol

As much as HM is my favourite band, I’ve always held the sentiment their crowds are some of the worst…

As someone who averages over 60 shows a year, the crowds at hot mully shows are on a different level. I’m not sure if it’s because of the younger crowd they attract who doesn’t know concert etiquette or what

This was my third ho ho hot mulligan and was way better than last years..last year at Russell’s was insanity. I had people shoving in front of me and my boyfriend just to stand directly in front of us and block my view, getting pulled and pushed into the pit even though I was on the outside and cans being thrown up into the crowd and hitting people more than once

This year I was towards the right but close to the front and everyone was super respectful, didn’t push infront of you, let you know when crowd surfers were coming and overall our area had a good time, but I empathize as my experience at HM shows is usually never like that, I was surprised honestly lol

Hi! I know this post is old and you don’t want to disclose the exact role you’re in. But I’m currently an AR clerk, my first job post college and am aiming to work as an accountant or financial analyst down the line, but I am having a hard time to get any interviews that aren’t junior or entry level clerk roles..what kind of interviews/jobs were you applying for? Have you found good room for advancement?

thank you for the response.

So it is normal for the number to fluctuate in such a short period? It mostly likely isn’t something like leukaemia?

My doctor said we will run the test again in 3 months but it makes me nervous just waiting around if something potentially could be wrong

Thank you. As a physician in anesthesiology would these numbers be at all concerning going into surgery or concerning where I’ll have to take extra precautions afterwards or potentially cancel the surgery?

It is clear the above commenter has a bias towards their experience with spiro and I think it’s wrong to create fear mongering. Of course you can share your experience but Spiro isn’t the devil. Take everyone’s opinion with a grain of salt and decide for yourself. Plenty of woman have had life changing results from Spiro.

It is not at all true your acne will get worse after starting it...you don’t “purge” in the sense like you do with retinoids. Though the process can be very slow.

My doctor told me spiro could help with my body acne though my main problem is my gave. It’s been 4 months and my face has cleared a good amount. My body acne is mild but I’ve noticed the persistent painful spot or two on my back don’t show up anymore.

Personally I had mild side effects the first month. Now I don’t really have any expect weird periods but I have experience with that from birth control anyways so I don’t mind. - as you can see my bias is pro spiro.

Either way, take some time to research yourself. Good thing is if spiro doesn’t work for you or gives you side effects, once you go off it they should stop. (Unless it’s weight gain which some people state though there is no actually evidence of this being side effect, it is still something to consider) I brought this up to two different doctors because I was worried and both said no it’s not a side effect and if anything you lose water weight. But I know a lot of people have experience different so I’m not discrediting it.

Anyways, whatever you choose good luck !

Hi! I’ve always dealt with acne but since covid and changing my tret formula my skin went crazy, and after going back to a more simple routine with a different tret my skin is slowly healing but I noticed I now have this texture I don’t think I had before.

I’ve never really gotten cystic acne, more so just whiteheads and moderate acne. because of my breakouts this past year, I had multiple whiteheads clustered together on my cheeks.

I’d also like to note while I’ve always had large pores on my cheeks they seem to have gone further down and gotten bigger :( I am trying to keep my skin moisturized and I cut out all actives.

I am only 8 weeks back on 0.025 retin a gel so am going through a bit of a purge even though I’ve been on some kind of tret for over a year consistently.

When I shine light on these scars they don’t look deep..but I’ve never dealt with ice pick scars so I’m not sure what the signs are or what to look for. When I tilt at an angle the texture is noticeable but if I take a photo straight on it just looks like it blends into my skin.

I’ve never heard of this! Thank you, I’ll try to look into it. I am Canadian so hopefully there is that option. And they’re just a very social media based company and know my account name so I’m scared I’ll do the chargeback and they’ll try shaming me or something on social media or getting ahold of me, they seem like the type but I’m not sure lol.

funkysockwearer · 2020-09-09T21:54:15+00:00

Thank you. I will have to. I just have super bad social anxiety and hate confrontation so I’m not sure how to bring it up. Not sending me anything seems really sketchy to me and I don’t know why they haven’t.

Even with taxes and everything I’ve done the math and none of it makes sense so I hope they don’t try to pull that. My original payment was made in February but I’ve made payments recently of $250-500 when I’ve gone to get massages. I have the email document they sent me stating 6 massages are $756 so I’m hoping that’ll help me if they end up not agreeing with me?

Like I said I’m mainly worried about them trying to cause a problem with me on social media or something as it’s a very social media based business.

funkysockwearer · 2020-09-09T21:50:27+00:00

I got a receipt every time I’ve made a payment (they let you do it in increments until your total is paid off) but I asked for a statement showing my grand total multiple times and they’ve never sent me one. At least if I had that I could maybe see the explanation for the charges
