This year the cheering came after the recounts were done, and we'd won the province. Though they frequently do.

Talking about the BC NDP btw.

Right. Vancouver drivers are terrible in the snow (if the snow sticks that year, and bad all year round anyway). Drivers from Saskatchewan or North Ontario scoff at whatever we get over here!

Gosh, now I want ice cream!

Windows 10 had multiple workspaces. Presumably they've kept that.

TBF, that trope was established back when you could get all the way to the gate before showing your ticket.

It might be funny to see it subverted by catching them at modern security, though

A small shop couldn't complete with a factory for something generic like shovels, it has to be custom stuff. I used to work at a metal shop that did that, till earlier this year, as a design technician on programming the cutter and press break.

My wife worked there, too, but the company hit financial troubles. She found a new job at a shop making ducting and delivering it. I ended up in a bakery for a couple of months.

People that work outdoors are far tougher than me!

I've been a food runner, a cashier, store support, retail systems technician, and done tradeshow setup all across the country. There's a job fair at the Naval Shipyard in town that I'm hoping might have something I could do.

I'd rather work in an office than food-service or retail. A workshop would be good too, rather not on-site construction.

It's much cheaper to buy the politicians than the whole country.

What is a Dutch paradox?

I'm Googling it, but all I'm finding is pre-2020 political articles.

This aged... Interesting. Given last night at MSG

That might be why I can't find one of my old comments!

One I left at the moment of realising I was transgender 😂
