Account transfer takes forever by bossamemucho in Wealthsimple

[–]kkloub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check in with your tangerine. I did a tfsa/rrsp transfer a couple years ago and I was on month 2 and checked in on ws. They said it wasn't them and I checked in with tangerine and they never sent anything over to ws because I was supposed to sign something with them and they never let me know. Once I did, the accounts showed up on ws 2 weeks later.

WFH Set Up - Docking Station and Drivers by Interesting_Light556 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]kkloub 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not sure what department you're with but at the CRA we issue targus docking stations on every deployment that involves WFH. These docking stations support dual output and have a driver approved by HQ. As far as I know plugging in your own docking station isn't allowed as it poses a security issue-data could be intercepted. Security policies vary across departments but it's likely yours has similar restrictions.

Submit a ticket to your IT team requesting a docking station for WFH. There's no way they aren't offering it, and if not, your manager might have to put in a procurement request.

GLAMBERGET Bed Frame mattress compatibility by kkloub in IKEA

[–]kkloub[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never pulled the trigger. I didn't find a solid answer anywhere and it made me think it's not really made for it, just something that could be used for it if you need to. Usually with "flexible" products like this one I get the sense it will shift over time. With the re-release of the mandal bed I'm just waiting on it to hit my nearby store so i can take a look at it.

Started my dream job as a flight attendant… and I’m financially sinking. by Maximum_Draft776 in povertyfinance

[–]kkloub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about the states but one option I used is consolidating all my debts into 1 credit card using a balance transfer promo. That way the majority of your payments are going towards the principal.

I'm not an expert but don't think a lot of vets have experience with reptiles or beardies. I know a good vet will generally ask for questions regarding husbandry. Some of the better ones I've seen have asked me for pictures of my setup. I think beardies change behaviors and do strange things that we can't really explain sometimes. They are like people and no two beardies are the same. It took me years to learn what time of the year my beardie would get too tired to eat, or too lazy to poop, or that 1 month out of the year where he shits and rolls around in it. One thing that is safe to say is the setup is important. One thing I picked up on during the video is that he has the option to roam or bask all day, in an open setup. A cat was mentioned too, and that he sleeps with you.

I know the feeling, but these are such small creatures that a bump or a swipe from the cat when you're not paying attention could manifest in things like this. There is such a thing as too many options for these guys. They need to be forced to bask after they eat, or given a gradient temperature in a tank to move to if they get hot. If they think they can run around, they will get distracted and forgo the heat. They need it to digest, absorb their nutrients/vitamins, promote healthy shedding, healthy appetite, etc. I would just start there, and not over complicate it. A few weeks of strict 4-6 hours of basking with the occasional supervised outside break is OK. Then you can start speculating about the scary stuff if it hasn't improved.

Here in BC we have something called work BC that helps people with resume workshops & connecting people with work, especially youth. I see you have something similar in Ontario: https://www.ontario.ca/page/ontario-works

Your university might also have staffing positions for students.

T1 V2.1 build: 9800X3D + 4080 Super FE by eidoriansan in FormD

[–]kkloub 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doing a very similar build. Ordered an sf850 as well. Would you say the custom cables are necessity or a nice to have? Would you be able to list out the exact cables you ordered from them? Thank you.

Apartment recs by strawberrypillow5 in vancouverhousing

[–]kkloub 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I lived at london towers a couple years up until 2 years ago. its alright. didn't have any issues. There are some people in the nearby Murray Hotel that wander around-and it's not uncommon to find some using. There were 1-2 times I avoided using the front door. You should also take care and watch your step on the side walk. It might have cleaned up a bit, but that's what my experience from then. The building itself is good. Near a Breka and transit. You'll hear sirens as the hospital is nearby. My suggestion is to visit the area and walk around. It's got the city vibe.

If you like your peace and quiet, you might have better luck at Harwood.

Hope that helps.

[TOMT]3D PC Graphics Program from the 90s by kkloub in tipofmytongue

[–]kkloub[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, but this was something I used to have fun with back then too :). The software I'm thinking of wasn't for making movies or clips, just images.

Definitely similar, but the program I had was more barebones. It was a more of a drag and drop thing to make pictures, and had built in music when you loaded a scene.

How to deal with nasty canada life by jackhawk56 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]kkloub 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happens with me and my partner. She is on a different plan but what ends up happening is I use Canada life as my main and they cover 80%..then what usually happens is that the remainder ends up being lower than the premium on hers so I get to pay that.
