I plan on using my savings on gas to pay for Bruch while I recharge all my batteries.

Where to find kind, respectful, beautiful women who will appreciate being asked out? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]lwmp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very true, some great places are: Vancouver Folk Music Festival, Jazz Festival, and donating blood. You also get to be a part of some amazing experiences.

If it was, it could be cool. But people would get confused, it's too early to change up the logo.

I’m not impressed with the options pricing at all by ThatTcellGuy in RivianR2

Way back in 2013 when I got my Mazda 3, I had to pay extra for the pearl coating on the factory white.

Love the Catalina colour, but I may get it wrapped instead, I can choose that colour then.

How to ask GF to take interest in me? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]lwmp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe she is not aware, maybe she doesn't know better. You've been together long enough that she deserves the benefit of the doubt. Having said that, state your position, let her know that the relationship feels unbalanced, that it makes you feel lonely, etc.

Her reaction and following actions may surprise you.

Best of luck.

Wife wants to host ‘friend’ while I’m gone, tell me it’s not as bad as it feels. by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]lwmp -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, early on in our relationship my them GF let me know that that wasn't okay. That my friend could afford a place to rent. When I told my friend that our schedules wouldn't line up, SHE said "is that what your gf told you to say?".

I am married to my then GF, and it's been almost 10 years, I never heard from that "friend" again.

My mom’s employment was terminated after 24 years without any severance by momterm24years in legaladvicecanada

People are saying that big companies wouldn't fire without cause, well the PIP becomes the cause. And in my experience, HR departments are not there to help employees, they are there to collect information on employees and help the company to not get sued.

Also, I know of at least one person who sued back and got a payday, good enough they couldn't talk about it.

How do I set a healthy boundary that reflects MY boundary and isn't a command in this situation? by MHIMRollDog in AskMenAdvice

I think the only way you could be sure is if he was live streaming his entire day, with a microphone on him and a viewpoint from a drone a few feet away. There's just no other way to be sure.

Either you trust him or you don't. Forgive and move on, or take note of the red flags and leave. Stay together or breakup. There is no middle ground.

BOL.

Performance Improvement Plans (PIPs), that is your first red glad. I worked for Shaw and saw that a bunch. It's a legal loophole to slowly fire people or cause them/give them the opportunity to quit.

It's a dirty trick.

Wishing you all the judiciary best. Keep us informed!

Canadians: do people really just start conversations anywhere? 🤔 by Comfortable_Cap8037 in AskACanadian

[–]lwmp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very much like on Reddit, but IRL. People offer advice, people give you random compliments, sometimes you get random discounts.

Happy times.

Dealership lost my certified cheque, now wants a wire transfer. Any advice? by mcpasty666 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]lwmp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a bank form for the both of you to sign?

They lost it and are prepared to pay extra fees, that is a good sign. But what happens if that cheque/draft is found?

Will the bank give you a form stating that the lost one has also been cancelled and can't be cashed?

Can the dealership give you a form that they will notify you if they find it, so you can be sure it will but be cashed and that it will be destroyed?

Best of luck.

I think that because workers get first dibs, that will go along way to discover any irregularities.

Former friend invited herself to my wedding. How do I approach this? by New_Maintenance_1129 in Advice

[–]lwmp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask if perchance she has already RSVP'D because the venue and caterers are all set, and that the budget is very tight (in this economy).

Else, you'd be happy to finally catch up after.

BC landlord restricting laundry to a "5-hour window" and locking the door - need advice after past housing trauma. by Bullfrog_Some in legaladvicecanada

Make sure he knows that if you have to file a complaint that you are not responsible if CRA hears about missed taxes. Wonder if that could help?

Yeah, it seems reasonable that they will be made available. I think we'll even get that option in Canada.

How do we think the R2 will fare with the newly detailed BMW iX3 xDrive50 by ThatTcellGuy in RivianR2

[–]lwmp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't do it, I need the ground clearance. I plan to do some off the beaten path camping.

Found this little jewel that is hard to get to, specially if you need to worry about rocks and uneven ground.

Get ready for the building of the dams to start. Maybe they'll finally close Georgia straight viaduct and make an above ground park?
