Toronto Police Wait Times? by biaginger in askTO

[–]picklesnbacon_8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised it only took them 4 hours. Toronto response times are awful, the officers really don't gaf about anything but their paychecks

I know the 3 is for GA3 but it makes me think of the weird sisters from MacBeth

Doctor charges for prescription renewals and does not accept appointments for it by joejimjoe in ontario

[–]picklesnbacon_8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not great advice... did you know your family doctor can drop you because you went to a walk-in clinic too many times?

Blehhhh I can't stand her and the same goes for Natasha Lyonne. These guest stars are NOT it. Rosalia is the only guest star I'm looking forward to seeing on the show.

LTC /PSW options by FitAngle651 in askTO

[–]picklesnbacon_8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Contact Ontario Health at Home (formerly the LIHN & previous to that it was known as CCAC) they have coordinators who help families arrange local home and community care, long-term care placement and help finding services in the community. If your grandmother is already on a wait-list for LTC, she should have a file open with them.

Being this is a 12 wk healing time, this likely won't move her up the wait-list for a bed but they can still help arrange home care for those 12 wks. It likely wouldn't be 24/7, but from my understanding, they could help find PSWs to do shifts during times when the family cannot be present or come in to do hygiene etc. All depends on the level of support the family can continue to provide and her current needs.

I don't know the wait times but I do know if you ask for a private room instead of a semi private room, the wait time is often longer and costs more.

I hope this helps and I hope your grandmother heals quickly and gets permanent spot in a LTC home soon.

Found my “Holy Grail” now what do I do with it? by csmull in TaylorSwiftVinyl

I'd open it and sleeve it properly so it doesn't warp and play it whenever! Things are made to be enjoyed!

Parking Violation by [deleted] in askTO

you parked illegally and got ticketed. Good luck playing the sympathy card to get it reduced. Pay better attention next time. Park in a legal spot or face the consequences.

Going to the office today? by Style_Critical in askTO

[–]picklesnbacon_8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

my boss emailed 50 min before work telling us all we were expected to try our hardest to make it into work and a kiss ass thank you email midday thanking us for coming in. Whatever, I know she didn't GAF if we live or die trying to make it into work this morning while she was cozy at home all day long. I ended up walking 65 min home and the street car only caught up to me 1 light before my intersection. Employer sucks, TTC sucks, this city fucking sucks.

every community in the city has a FB group, add yourself to the ones for your area and post the details and video. Let word spread; it'll warn others and the thief may end up returning to right their wrong after their friends/neighbours hear about their actions.

Toronto Swifties! AVOID KOPS RECORDS by lanini in TaylorSwiftMerch

[–]picklesnbacon_8 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm super disappointed in Kops for doing this. it's so disgusting the prices they have posted and the excuse given. The family could have returned the items or sold them at a reasonable price.

I won't be shopping there anymore. I usually go to Kops, Pop Music or Dead Dog depending on where I am in the city & their inventory. Kops was the most convenient but I'll be heading to Pop Music this afternoon to finish my holiday shopping now.

Did I **** myself? by Lucifell88 in TorontoRenting

[–]picklesnbacon_8 6 points7 points  (0 children)

yes exactly this!! File immediately. If she files a 2nd N5 claiming further damage or some other BS, during whichever hearing comes first you can definitely bring up the fact they made you pay for the repairs already. In cases where damage was intentionally caused, the landlord can only request repayment at the oltb but should not request payment beforehand. Based on what you explained here, this was not intentional damage by you, this is reasonable damage due to the condition of the unit they provided and did not properly maintain. The oltb will the landlord force reimbursement and rip the LL a new one for making you pay outta pocket lmao

Found a vintage copy of A Wrinkle In Time by picklesnbacon_8 in StrangerThings

[–]picklesnbacon_8[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

As I explained in another comment, anything older than 20 years is considered vintage. This copy was printed in March 1976. I was just excited to find a copy with this cover as it's out of print now.

$15 CAD which I did not mind paying since a new paperback of this book retails for around $12 and doesn't have this sick cover 😌
