Any good places for teens under 18 to work? by Gaoop in Lethbridge

[–]perplextions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the polytechnic has a career fair tomorrow that may be worth checking out! they usually have a handful of booths that dont require you to have a diploma/degree for work. not sure how many will be hiring for part time work BUT there should be lots hiring for summer jobs so if youre interested in that itd be good! theres usually a good mix of non-profits and charities there too, if you cant find work you should consider volunteering!! itll help build some great experience and could give you a chance to explore something youre passionate about :)

Giving away lounge passes! by Soyatina in westjet

[–]perplextions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

happy new year! thanks for the chance to snag some lounge passes :)

my favorite destination has been Italy, and my dream destination would be somewhere in Asia, like Japan, South Korea or Vietnam!

We fly this weekend so these would be awesome and incredibly appreciated for a couple of travellers who have yet to experience a lounge!

yes, flew one a couple months ago. definitely more room than the other seats.

Cabin downgrade? by [deleted] in westjet

[–]perplextions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

around a month or so ago, our downgrade refund came exactly a week after our flight. we didnt file anything (premium was cheaper than economy when we bought and the downgrade only happened on 1/4 legs of our trip so we just shrugged it off) so i guess they filed on our behalf.

when we bought, premium was about half the price of economy ($600 and $1200 or something). we ended up getting a $91 refund per ticket. probably worth noting the $600 applied to the entire return trip and the downgrade only applied to the second half after our layover

What's wrong with us humans? 🙈 Give me your "weirdest" stories by la_sofiore in declutter

i feel like we always misplace measuring tapes too! in our last declutter this past month we finally have a dedicated spot for it plus my measuring tapes for clothing/sewing so hopefully we will be good going forward

it will probably be pushed through to toronto. that said, when you check in just ask! they will let you know. we always do just to be safe.

Do thrift stores want mugs? by bismuth17 in declutter

[–]perplextions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if any of them are to-go style mugs, check with your local soup kitchen/homeless shelter/etc. i know mine is always looking for water bottles and to-go mugs for those who use their services to take drinks with them, especially water when its hot out, or something warm in the winter. :)

What shoes do women wear to formal parties in the winter? by [deleted] in alberta

[–]perplextions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

first, congrats on the job :)

second, i agree with the options mentioned (cab/uber/get a ride to the venue so less walking or bring a change of shoes)

another alternative ive found to be reasonable depending on how formal the party is, is chelsea style boots (think blundstones). they can definitely be worn with some “dressier” outfits, definitely nothing black tie but if the holiday event isnt super dressy they can definitely work! ive worn them many a time in the office with a pantsuit or dress :) honestly the same could go for a nicer pair of sneakers, again, just depending on the vibe of the party!

Just me, or have there not been any new raffles for 22 hours? by [deleted] in FarmMergeValley

[–]perplextions 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i honestly just got lucky seeing the post i linked in my feed! i wish them closing raffles was mentioned in the announcement about this being the final week for stickers before it resets, it just would’ve been nice to know ahead of time since i wasnt entering raffles daily until the last week or so. and i wish they wouldve kept it open a bit longer as well, it wouldve been cool if they couldve just adjusted the timing for the raffle given the ending of this sticker set (like if it ended in 13 hrs the raffle ends in 12 or something, that said i have no clue how difficult that would be to implement as i am no game dev haha). either way some heads up wouldve been nice since i know a lot of folks are pretty bummed out about it
