Serious / Re: Justin Trudeau appoints a 50/50 gender balanced cabinet
« on: November 09, 2015, 06:30:43 PM »
obviously he put much greater thought into it than just making sure 50% of his cabinet was female.

I dunno how "obvious" that is, but alright. btw, Trudeau's father was considered to be a great intellect -- Justin? Not so much. But that's none of my business.
I can't really comment too much on it, because I'm not entirely certain of the responsibilities held by a Canadian Prime Minister, but I'd assume that the point of a cabinet is the same in Canada as the US. He doesn't know everything about everything (and nobody does), which is the importance of having a cabinet to consult on matters. Only time will tell how he uses that.
This mostly. The cabinet members job is to advise Trudeau. And the good thing about Trudeau is that although he looks young (40+) he is surrounded by a really strong team and is actually leading a center right economic party. Altough he resides on the left socially.

If you are interested do you have a resume?

I actually don't. It's something I'm going to have to get working on soon.

I do have a few people in landscaping I can talk to. Looking on Kijiji is a great idea, though. I actually have experience with landscaping (I use to do interlock driveways), so that'll be useful.
That is a good start. Find something in earthmoving as that will get you into equipment operating fast and there always jobs for capable operstors. Crane operators also make good cash. $80 an hour sometimes.

Cool story, hope things go well. But what if you find someone new who wants to start a family. Is it reversible?

Can't unsmoke all that pot or undrink all that booze. Besides, I'm 40 with two kids, why would I agree to that?
No one knows, shit happens. Hope the kids stay happy, not really sure if you or ex has custody over them. How are the kids managing, I know they are young but are they faring well?

Question what i your schooling and are you willing to work a labour job for 7 days a week up in Northern Alberta?

I'm finishing high school this year...

Where are you at anyway?

Brampton, Ontario.
Cool, yeah if you can, get some labour experience with one of the trades. Trust me on this, as labour is the fastest way to save up money for future schooling or plans. Plus keep an eye out for projects going up around the country. Northern Alberta has a bunch but so does BC and the maritimes.

And do not only keep looking in big companies look for small companies. Retail is good start but try to get out of it as soon as possible or else you could get stuck there for a long time. It would be good to get into banking. Worst case is to join the reserves and hold a part time job. Reserves can help any future schooling costs easy to maintain or free.

Plus companies will pay for you to fly to sites and pay for your rent, food at camps is free though could be a hit or miss depending on camps. You can save up a lot and bunk with friends for the one week you are off or so.

Wow, man. You know your stuff.

Thanks for the advice!

Hey, construction is a big field and man are there a bunch of small companies that hire people you will never hear about.

Plus I bet you a vast majority of the 1% in Canada live in Fort Mc. Trades and Site work pays real good money. Usually most people waste it on hookers and blow. If you are interested do you have a resume?

Good place to start and easier to get into is landscaping, painting, roofing, framing. Backbreaking but pays well. Also instead of submitting resumes look for ads on kijiji or anywhere else and call the owner. Most of the small companies a call to the owner can get you somewhere.And show interest. Call, send emails man construction is all about making contacts.

Serious / Re: SQS: Should you ever rat on your friends?
« on: November 08, 2015, 09:38:04 PM »
If I would I would talk to them and they are not i will have to tell them in the face before I would do it.

But the closer you are the less likely I will rat you out and more I will take matter into my own hands.

Wow, has anyone even looked at these guys background. The health minister is a doctor, the transport minister is an astronaut, the defense minister is a Sikh army soldier who rose through the rank and is highly decorated with multiple tours under his belt, the veteran minister is a real disabled veteran. Fuck everyone has a background in the ministry they are working at.

Unlike the last government where most ministers were career politicians or lawyers with no experience in the ministry they were heading.

So before you say this appointment is stupid do a bit of research for fucks sake.

Cannot wait for my first music festival in BC.
Which is next year.

What would you say is the best way to prepare for one of these festivals?

You better be ready, cause although it will be hard if you can get some operating experience and get your Ground Disturbance, it can help you get a really good job quick. $35 per hour is on the low scale and you will be easily making overtime.

Not sure if I can get you something immediately but it could take time.

Where are you at anyway?

This is really cringy but at the same time some people are like this and I should not look down on them for what they like. If they like it they should continue and ignore everyone else.

Looks good, and although there are very few races as I am not that deep into the Warcraft lore, I must say this movie is likely looking to be a great movie. Also that river scene reminds me of moses.

My condolences. But it really strikes you from nowhere and can come from anywhere at all. I feel like the ability to talk with someone you trust without judgement is important. It does not matter how pathetic it seems, it could save you.

The Flood / Re: Why do we still have Daylight Savings Time
« on: November 02, 2015, 09:29:16 AM »
Not sure. But if I remember the reason was to increase the number of hours with sunlight in the day. For people in the North it should have a joticeable effect on the amount of sunlight they experience.
Basically. It's dark by 5:30 now instead of 6:30, but the flip side is that it's a hell of a lot easier and natural to wake up at sunrise instead of a fucking hour before it.

There are so many myths about DST, the most notable being that it's for the Farmers... thing is, nearly every farmer was dead set against the implementation of DST, claiming that it actually harmed productivity. Then there's the energy saving from the extra daylight myth. Modern studies on this range from a .05%saving to an actual increase in consumption.
In the end, it just comes down to rich guys wanting an extra hour to play golf at the end of the summer day.
That basically what it is. If I remember (likely wrong) it was the germans who started it and are now trying to end it. As far as I am concerned it has been done for so long it kind of is something we know needs to be gone but are too lazy to end.

OnePlus One

literally the only right answer
This must be a recent phone. I haven't heard of this company.
One Plus Two is the New one.
Got the OnePlusTwo, will hopefully get a chance to play with it when i get back home at the end of this month.

One Plus One is around 300 and quite great.
