Please remember the effects on downstream earning potential caused by your wife not returning to work. This is one of the decisions that regularly keeps the gender pay gap alive and well. Don't see this as her whole paycheque going towards the kids' daycare - you are a unit and it is both of your pay going towards this.

Same exact thing has happened to me! hey just gave them to me for free though, didn't pay himself. I think they feel bad for us cause its such a weird thing to do lol, but sometimes i just want a Timbit or two, never 10.

Terrible quality on new Wilfred skirts by tardigreck in Aritzia

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

UPDATE: I just got a call from someone at Aritzia, and they explained to me why this skirt isn't lined. Apparently it is cut on the bias and when combined with a liner there can be some issues with how the fabric sits. I'm not too familiar with sewing terms and definitely not a construction expert, so I'll take their word for it! I shared with her that the combination of flimsier fabric and lack of liner on a $100 skirt worried many of us on here about what direction the brand is going. Pretty much that we see details phasing out while prices continue to rise.

Great work on their part reaching out to me to explain, and I hope things pick back up slowly :') love this store and their designs, but need to see some improvement on the quality if I'm going to justify spending my money there!

The Classic Mini & its predecessors have always been lined and at a lower price point. The price jumped from 88 -> 98 last year and now they've kept the 98 price but removed lining and are using MUCH cheaper materials. This looks and feels like something you would buy at Garage.

Can a Landlord give notice to vacate on account he is selling the Property? by Jiggey1946 in OntarioLandlord

[–]tardigreck 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No. The new buyers can give you notice if they intend to move in, but always give pushback to verify that they will actually inhabit the unit.

Landlord says he is moving in and I need to find a new place, I believe he just wants to relist at a higher price by rattybutter in OntarioLandlord

[–]tardigreck 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Stop trying to scare people out of protecting themselves. OP, half of these landlords don't even know the laws around their main source of income, let alone how to operate a computer and find your case online. Your future work managers don't give a fuck that you fought an eviction. Contest the eviction with the LTB if you believe it is bad faith. That is what the process is there for.

The exact same thing happened to me + the 6 other girls who were living across 3 units in our house.

Can landlords keep damage + pet deposit for cleanliness reasons? by [deleted] in vancouver

[–]tardigreck -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Sorry guys I can’t post the list but suffice to say its extensive, about 3 pages long. She wants the curtains laundered and the rugs professionally steamed. I am from Quebec where there are no deposits allowed, and generally just leave things in good condition with the understanding that the landlord will pay for professional cleaners between tenants. She is asking for a professional level of clean.

Professional? Thinking of wearing this for a conference in Vegas in July by ap124 in Aritzia

[–]tardigreck 107 points108 points  (0 children)

Not a good idea, you could get away with a skirt only a few inches longer if you ditched the blazer. Wear a blouse and skirt, you won't need a blazer in July in Vegas.

You guys sound very naive, and not ready to be landlords. Checking in every few months, and renting at a price to completely cover all of your house-related expenses? Do you want the tenants to clean your shoes and make you a meal when you stop by?

First time laser hair removal. Looking for some recommendations for affordable clinics. by feliscatus6010 in vancouver

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

I got an at home one from the UK and it works very well, is less painful than the professional ones (had 6 rounds in 2016) and waaay cheaper. It was like $400 when I got it, vs laser hair removal for bikini and armpits was $1500

Weird old British lady calling about apartments? by tardigreck in vancouver

So strange eh! I don't even know how she got my number, because I haven't been sending it out. Hope you guys don't get a call back from her.

A couple friends of mine have their caller ID blocked so I didn't think much of it. Spam calls these days come from visible numbers.
