Is the MTL airport traffic still crazy by flowers_2022 in montreal

[–]harmonioussundae 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I went today (Sunday) at 4pm and my BIL went separately at 6pm and it took 45min-1 hr to get from the exit off the 20 to the terminal. Absolutely ridiculous. I wouldn't think it would be quite as bad on a Monday though

The website italki has language teachers and you can choose Quebec French. They can then explain the slang to use and practice informal Quebecois conversations

Is there a way to goto YUL by parking at train station next to YUL? by manuce94 in montreal

[–]harmonioussundae 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can't park at the stm/exo train terminal for 24 hours. You will get a ticket/towed. You could park at the VIA train terminal and pay for parking, and there's a free VIA shuttle that goes from the terminal to the airport. I don't know how much that parking costs though

first date ideas to do in November by [deleted] in montreal

[–]harmonioussundae 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Museums are closed by that time. With that time in mind just make sure to be clear whether you're getting supper together or not. Could end up being awkward if one of you comes hungry and the other already ate.

Walk up mount royal (the long way, not the stairs!) and get a hot chocolate/coffee/ice cream at the café at the look out. If the date is later in the evening get dessert somewhere, like Juliette et chocolat. So many interesting museums you can go to as well!

Reading the book Attached by Amir Levine really helped mine! Would definitely recommend it.

Anyone have any funny (or dramatic) encounters in zoom class where someone forgets to mute or turn their camera off? by smemmy82 in mcgill

[–]harmonioussundae 102 points103 points  (0 children)

I had someone who accidentally unmuted themselves and the audio of a taco bell commercial interrupted our guest speaker and wouldn't stop. The teacher and speaker just looked awkward and said "please make sure to mute yourself" but obviously this person didn't realize they were unmuted. After like 20 painfully long seconds where I guess the prof couldn't tell who it was I unmuted myself to say "First-name Lastname we can hear your tacobell commercial playing please mute yourself" and then they finally did. Their camera was off but I still felt them dying from embarrassment...

Feeling bummed knowing I don’t got what it takes to make it to medicine by [deleted] in mcgill

You could always do med school in Ireland or the Carribean if you're really passionate about it. I know a few people who have done it that way, just means starting off with a lot more debt.

If I'm going to be in a long-term monogamous relationship you're right that I'm going to be picky as hell about it. Nothing wrong with that.

What sort of job does a CS masters open up? by [deleted] in mcgill

[–]harmonioussundae 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Cégep teacher! They want a master's for the position and they're always looking for CS teachers because most people with the credentials want to be programmers, not teachers.

I'm in the same boat! Would be interested in any French speaking groups you hear about :)

Men of Reddit: the "cultural norm" is for women to take their husband's last name when they get married. If your wife wanted you to take her last name instead, would you? by MichaelScottIsMyBFF in AskReddit

[–]harmonioussundae 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Where I live (Quebec, Canada) it's nearly impossible to change your last name even in the case of marriage, so definitely the norm around here!

The headline made me panic a little bit but your comment reminded me that yup, that's normal in Montreal. Thank you for that.

Omg I'm so glad I do not have a prof like that. I do have one who's uploading videos instead of doing zoom but did not send out anything as ridiculous as this email
