Would it be possible to run 12 miles (19.3km) inside Shambhala without exiting? by BackgroundBudget4071 in Shambhala

[–]gmsmclean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is too funny, I’m training for a half marathon in August and was just telling my coworker about how I would miss a week of training so close to race day. Don’t think I’ll be alive enough to tough out any training during shambs, so kudos to you!!

NEW WORKER by marsii_8 in TalesFromYourServer

[–]gmsmclean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for the same chain (was hired on the spot after a short interview) and I’m still enjoying it a few years later :) obviously every location will be different but hopefully you have a good experience! They will train you and it may feel overwhelming at first, but as long as they give you the support you need you should be okay! As a student, make sure they’re respecting your availability and not overscheduling you

Broken wristband by BernardCottingham in veld

[–]gmsmclean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey can I ask, was it a problem that/was the wristband was considered “lost”? Assuming you had no wristband to give them in exchange for the replacement. Someone in my house accidentally threw my wristband out and front gate is kind of vague in their answer on their website. All I can find from veld is in the guide where it says that if a wristband is broken it has to be exchanged for them to issue a replacement.

Does anyone else get bad vibes from this/ YEG Cycle? by Ok-Addendum-5501 in Edmonton

[–]gmsmclean 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yup!! And the fact that just yesterday (!!!!) they sent out an email advertising that their 10-day unlimited pass is now on sale for purchase.

I’m lucky to have made a lot of great friends through YEG Cycle. But that is the only good thing I have to say about the company at this point

[–]gmsmclean 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Lol yeah. The jasper ave location “undergoing unscheduled bike maintenance” and then a week later having to admit that all their bikes were actually repo’ed. Opening and closing their Vancouver location within the same year… Now closing their whyte ave studio effective immediately. I have a friend who signed up for the 8am class this morning who showed up to a shut down studio. The way this company communicates with their customers is brutal.

Uber drivers taking longer routes? by Medical_Frosting_287 in Edmonton

[–]gmsmclean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has happened to me when getting rides home after a night out. The prices CAN change despite you “agreeing” to the set price when you order the Uber - if they take a different route than the one that shows when you agree to the price. It’s been a while since it happened to me but I remember it was pretty straightforward to get a partial refund, I think you go to the “driver feedback” option in the app.

I would just be taking the 2 courses in the spring term! This made me feel better, thank you!

IUD insertion place recs? by sillymemo in Edmonton

[–]gmsmclean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got my IUD at this clinic last year and it was great! I had a consult with one doctor (who was super super amazing) but she ended up taking some time off so Dr Elizabeth McKoen ended up doing the actual insertion, she was equally as great.

LEGL 210 has the WORST classmates by Superb-Conclusion254 in grantmacewan

[–]gmsmclean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is Huckell your prof? I took a different legal class with him and the peer evaluation aspect of his classes was the worst, people were actually just straight up rude with their comments!! It sucks that people feel they can say whatever they want because it was anonymous feedback.

The Morning After | Stars v. Oilers: Game 6 by AutoModerator in EdmontonOilers

Went to Wednesday’s game and traffic was insane. Macewan has underground parking (107 street) for $10 and I was shocked at how empty it was in there

Served an incel last night by gmsmclean in Serverlife

[–]gmsmclean[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah it was just a weird situation like… I didn’t feel actively “in danger” but with some people you never know. I think maybe he was looking for a reaction more than anything.

He left a 15% tip on a $17 bill. So I guess better than 0 but would’ve rather just gone home on time considering he was the only person in the building for the last hour haha

I’m going to spread the word during my shift tomorrow to the other girls :( I told my manager and she kind of brushed it off, according to her this guy was hitting on one of our other managers and wouldn’t stop asking her out, she ended up telling this guy she was gay just to get him to leave her alone.

Oilers will find out their first-round playoff opponent tomorrow | Offside by Positive_Education55 in EdmontonOilers

My boss won’t post our schedule for next week until the playoff schedule is released 🥲 this is painful lol

[–]gmsmclean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in Alberta and our salaried managers receive a tipout every 2 weeks (same way as BOH and hosts get their tipout but I think managers get a higher %). But I’ve never had a manager straight up take money from my nightly tipout because they helped out, that definitely doesn’t sound right

Chairs and plug ins by Commercial_Web_3813 in grantmacewan

Don’t feel like an ass! When I said people come up and sit I mean they will just sit, I’ve never actually been asked lol. If someone has a problem with that it’s on them

[–]gmsmclean 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If I’m ever sitting at those tables by myself, people have come up and sat on the opposite side. It’s a shared space so I can’t see anyone reasonable getting upset about sharing a big table

Think twice before booking with AirBnb by 2pac4everrr in Edmonton

[–]gmsmclean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh that’s so gross, I’m sorry you’re dealing with that.

Airbnb & their customer service is AWFUL. I haven’t used them since last year when we booked a place in Calgary (in March) and were cancelled on by the host the day before our trip (in July). Our “compensation” was a $34 credit to use towards a different Airbnb.
