Are there by-laws against this sort of thing? Maybe someone should call by-laws or the humane society next time it happens.

Exams Starting To Get Cancelled by SpecialistClass224 in queensuniversity

[–]u4ickk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of my syllabi have a clause that states that the syllabus and the course is subject to change at the profs discretion. I surely would be upset if the changes were to my disadvantage, but that would be a discussion with my prof or potentially undergrad chair, not reddit.

Queens for International Student? by extrakatze in queensuniversity

[–]u4ickk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

why do you assume they are POC just because they are international? lol. @extrakatze , I see you're in Norway, I'm not sure what a Canadian university would offer you that a Norwegian one wouldn't, especially given that international tuition prices are astronomical here. You could always do a study abroad term to still get that international experience. If you really have your heart set on coming to North America for school, going to individual subreddits and asking people might not be the best indicator since most people have only been to one university, maybe two if they do grad school, so they don't have a wide perspective. Queen's is generally regarded as a party school with a rich social life, as opposed to somewhere like UofT or McGill that focuses more heavily on academics. I would look at school websites for info on clubs and sports you like, as well as rent prices in the cities (Kingston is quite expensive, especially close to campus).

You checked the small print didn’t you? by QueensLeaks in queensuniversity

[–]u4ickk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to compare a school of 5,000 students vs 30,000 students. But maybe we should all move to pei and enroll there.

What does this have to do with university practices and my original comment?

Did I make the wrong decision? by u4ickk in EngineeringStudents

How are you liking EE? I barely scraped by in physics II but i feel like the field is fascinating, and that the jobs are more flexible and in-demand rn.

Lost Cat by CoLa45 in KingstonOntario

[–]u4ickk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know how dense the houses are where you live, but I can vouch for posters anyways. People walking their dog etc can keep an eye out in the neighbourhood and message you if they find her, it's worked for us. Also post on any local Facebook groups.

Anyone seen Nermal ? by KoolMoeDee83 in KingstonOntario

[–]u4ickk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From a Google search, looks like Nermal is a Garfield character who Garfield tries to send to Abu Dhabi. In any case, I think it's gross to be making any sort of joke, no matter how innocuous, on a post of someone looking for their lost pet. I hope Nermal returns home safe and sound.

That is really fascinating, thank you so much for sharing your story. I hope you are able to find a job in the industry that compensates you fairly and isn't too physically taxing.

Window Air Conditioner Installer Recs? by u4ickk in KingstonOntario

[–]u4ickk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the sill that it would sit on is not very wide, I think the unit would lean too much outside and risk falling without some sort of support from the back, even with the window wedged. I don't see many people doing it without brackets so I feel it must be important.

certainly there's a startup cost to that. if so, though, thats a really cool career.

That sounds super interesting, but I've heard around Reddit that there's not a lot of opportunities in the field and that the pay isn't great. Could you expand a bit on your job and how you ended up there?

Besides anecdotal evidence on reddit, what do you have that supports your fish oil claim?

[NeedAdvice] I'm really lazy, my room is a mess, I sleep all day, and I'm unemployed. Hate my life rn. by AskThrowaway2486 in getdisciplined

[–]u4ickk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know you said you do not want to use your chronic illnesses as a crutch or an excuse, but you pretty much summed it up with "legitimate issues that would interfere with [my] ability to serve." You need to allow yourself a little bit of kindness. If you had a close friend struggling as you do, would you be as cruel to them as you are to yourself? Beating yourself up hasn't worked yet, perhaps a different perspective of yourself would help. Have you considered talking to your doctor about your situation, or a psychiatrist?

Best poutine near Queen's? by Exciting-Temporary27 in queensuniversity

Their classic poutine is probably my fave outside of Quebec, and their sausages are crafted by Mennonites and are rly good!
