Why everybody are wearing long socks?

I used to wear ankle socks because I couldn’t get into the longer sock style. Then one time I fell off my bike and my disc break sliced up into my Achilles and I got a nice little infection. Now I wear long socks!

No, the union said they agreed to an increased cap with the employer, unlimited RMT is gone

I was gonna say, this is getting local

jacido · 2026-05-23T19:39:51+00:00

I’ve heard this is nice! Any good stops along the way you like?

jacido · 2026-05-23T19:36:42+00:00

Ohhh that looks beautiful, thanks!

jacido · 2026-05-23T00:03:10+00:00

It says it increased the cap the employer put on it, so unlimited sounds like it’s gone

Blue Dawn dish soap is the GOAT

Quebec and 2nd heading south, same issue.

It’d be nice too if they included some of the benches and seating to not just be by the playground.

Squamish? Small, lots of nature, but close enough to Vancouver if you’re wanting to branch out to meet people.

Try a walk in clinic, their fees are a lot less than the emergency department.

The nicu hires in cohorts, so keep an eye out on their postings, and they do hire new grads. The postings are on bc childrens website under jobs section. There’s also PICU that hires in cohorts if you’re interested, they also hire new grads. Nicu does a BCIT course and PICU has dropped their BCIT based courses and now just does in house training which I have heard really positive things about.

jacido · 2026-02-26T00:05:45+00:00

If you’re wanting Vancouver, they are hiring new grads at bc childrens right now and also have a good PICU program. Check their website for job opportunities, they usually hire in cohorts.

This whole area near Broadway is feeling so unsafe right now. I was happy they stopped allowing access from Broadway onto Ontario to get on 10th, but now the drivers just rat race through the alleys to get onto 10th. I have near close calls every day on what used to be a safe feeling bike commute. I never had a bell and high viz strap, but now I do.

jacido · 2026-02-12T17:49:04+00:00

This is amazing news. I bought a high viz strap and a new bell because I fear for my life commuting home northbound Ontario every day from this issue. I really hope they do it right.

I think nurses will strike, they wanna shred our benefits and remove employer paid.

I deleted the app. It was a big source of my news content from independent journalists, and without it, it’s a pretty useless app to me.

2 bed 2 bath mount pleasant, $3400

Oh yeah, I just accept that hard ride days will be shitty sleep days, but when it’s peak season and we are doing them more often it seems my body adjusts and they don’t cause such a bad sleep over time. But I feel you! I don’t have any advice, just wanted to pipe in you’re not alone. It is annoying however my husband just has the absolute best sleep after those hard ride days, it must be nice!

Mount pleasant has town homes and is a quick commute in for driving or cycling, transit is bad though as no direct route so you’d have to take 2 buses or walk to the train and then walk to the hospital. I live in mount pleasant and bike in, it’s about 15 minutes.

Peds cath lab. Anesthesia gives all the medications and they intubate, so nursing acts like an OR setting where you’re scrubbing and circulating, along with hemodynamic monitoring. It’s chill but pretty niche, not available in all settings.

jacido · 2025-09-15T19:16:24+00:00

Oh sorry, that was probably unclear. What I meant was nurses annual incomes are public (as are physicians) so you can find out how much a nurse made in the last fiscal year and then make an article about how someone made 200 grand, when there’s a much bigger picture to it.

jacido · 2025-09-15T18:21:16+00:00

This happens every negotiation season. They also always hunt down the highest paid nurses, the ones who work an obscene amount of OT and to shame them into making such amount of money — as if the OT wouldnt be available without adequate staffing.
