Heading to Edmonton next week. Looking to get 3 simple memorial tattoos, maybe something bigger if the mood strikes me. I'm from High Level, and want to make use of the options. Thanks! submitted by /u/teach_travel [link] [comments]

Pretty much what the title says. How do people afford to have a decent quality of life in this city?? In Alberta in general (ik cost of living is low overall here relative to other provinces, but I'm just asking about AB because I live here). I've budgeted and budgeted but the best I can do is break even and I'm hoping and praying to find a job that pays at least $18 an hour even though I have a bachelor's. I'm just one person why is everything so expensive 🙃 submitted by /u/grainsilocolumbarium [link] [comments]

I drive a ton for work and while I’ve been doing it forever, I’ve also had to drive through some of the worst weather. What are some apps or websites that you can use to check road safety? Is it pretty much just AMA road reports? Is there a radio station that covers current traffic reports specifically QE2 to Edmonton? Pardon my ignorance, I’ve never really cared before. I have a family now and just want to be a little more cautious. submitted by /u/ButeosDolichovespula [link] [comments]

I’ve lived here 5 years and normally for a few weeks each fall the boxelder bugs start coming inside when it gets colder. Then they’re gone. This year though it has been unending! Every day I find like 5 coming inside. It’s really weird. Has anyone else noticed way more of them way longer this year?! I know they are harmless but they’re kinda annoying! submitted by /u/xpensivewino [link] [comments]

Starting to go into the office on a regular basis and I can’t seem to find quality business casual menswear. As a reference, I’ve shopped at Oldnavy and H&M - problem is that those clothes don’t last long and wear easily. Where can I get quality menswear in Edmonton?

Hello! I'm looking for two models for my hairstyling program. I'm in my final classroom portion of my program, and I would be using these models for evaluations—these would be occurring on the 16th and 17th of February, and would be completely free. ​ Model 1 (February 16) - Half Day - Shorter hair (i.e., ideally not longer than chin/bob length) - Cut/Colour/Style ​ Basically, this would be a 1-3pm (will confirm times closer to the date) process wherein I would be cutting, colouring, and styling your hair; while I'm slightly limited to what we can do (due to time constraints), we can plan out something and discuss what our options are! Ideally, you'd have shorter hair. ​ Model 2 (February 17) - Full Day - Shoulder length hair (willing to allow it to be cut shorter) - Comfortable with being photographed - Comfortable with giving me full creative control ​ This would be a full day process wherein I would execute my personal artistic vision of an editorial style (basically I would do something creative and more high concept with your hair). This would involve cutting, colouring, and styling per my vision; and then there would be a photoshoot after. For this, ideally you would be comfortable with allowing me to do whatever I want to your hair* along with being photographed after. Ideally you'd be blonde or have lighter hair that is about shoulder length. I may need to do some prep work with your hair prior to the 17th, however, that would also be completely free. *I would be able to modify it slightly afterwards if desired (e.g., cut shorter, etc.) ​ Feel free to message me if you'd be interested in any of these! I'd really appreciate your help :)) submitted by /u/ProfFlitwicksDickPic [link] [comments]

I fainted twice during my morning commute on the train today. I felt touched by the kindness and care of complete strangers: ​ Thank you to the people who showed concern. Thank you to the people who gave me water and a granola bar. Thank you to the people who insisted I don't stand up and guided me through my confusion. Thank you to the people who called for help. Thank you to the people who walked me to my office to make sure I didn't faint again. ​ You upstanding Calgarians have had a positive impact on my outlook on humanity. Thank you all. submitted by /u/confused_analyst_88 [link] [comments]

I just witnessed an assault downtown and stayed with the victim until the ambulance came. It took over an hour. Wtf is wrong with EMS in this city? I’m hoping someone with working knowledge can advise on how we fix this. Are ambulances run at a city or province level? How can we contact our elected officials about this? What can I do as a random person to improve the failing system? submitted by /u/aronenark [link] [comments]

sorry if this is a weird post lol. I (21) have really been struggling with my mental health recently. Shit has really hit the fan in the past few months and it has become concerning to me how terrible my mental health episodes are. I won’t get to into it, but I’m genuinely concerned about my ability to keep myself safe and healthy. I am also broke- I have no extra money. I’m going to start looking for another job, but I reasonably cannot afford therapy or medication in the next couple of months, which is a long time to be feeling this way without any support. I’m going to try and find a doctor and see if I can get in with a psychiatrist but I’ve heard the waitlist is incredibly long for that, and I’m also not 100% sure that’s free. Does anyone have any recommendations for helpful mental health options in Calgary that won’t cost an arm and a leg? I just feel like I am at the end of my rope and need help now. I know some people will recommend going to the hospital, but I was admitted as a teenager and it was a horrible experience. Also, being admitted to the hospital would make my financial situation a lot worse, which would make my mental health worse too. Access to a psychiatrist is what I need right now most I think. I’ve been diagnosed with anxiety and depression but I have the sneaking suspicion that I have something else going on with my brain because I have some very severe things going on. But therapy or just some sort of support at all would help so much. Please let me know if anyone has any recommendations, even if it’s just online therapy that isn’t awful or something. submitted by /u/Apprehensivebabe2409 [link] [comments]

I have no idea if anyone has been in a similar situation. I'm in an older 1960s neighbourhood. Every year we go through freeze/thaw and the sidewalk infront of our house is an ice slick. It's basically because where the drain is, is uphill from our house. I think overtime the grade settled being an older neighbourhood. Is this something 311 can help fix? I know snow/ice removal is up to the homeowner and we are out every year for hours chopping the ice. submitted by /u/winnipeggremlin [link] [comments]

Hello! Im looking for players for an upcoming D&D game I'm looking to run. So, let's jump right into the important information. Where? The game will be a hybrid of both online and offline, with the group meeting once or twice a month at the Hexagon Board Game Cafe or similar cafe/game store and the rest of the games being online using Discord and Owlbear Rodeo When? Every Sunday in the afternoon or evening, I'm thinking of starting around 1 or 2 pm, but that is subject to change depending on the group. Who? Both experienced and new players are welcome at my table. How To Get In? Message me or send me a chat with a small introduction, including your name, age, pronouns, and experience level. What Are We Playing? I'll be running a modified Descent into Avernus with a pinch of Acquisitions Incorporated thrown in for fun. The game will be a bit more role-play focused. So keep that in mind. About Your DM: For now, you can call me Sponge, I'm a 20 y/o gal. I'm rather inexperienced at DMing games, but I'm excited to try. I've run one game and several one-shots, so hopefully, this should go well. But if it does crash and burn, I can assure you I'll try to make it as fun as possible. I've been playing for about two years now. I love baking and making things unnecessarily complicated. I hope to hear from you soon! submitted by /u/ASuspiciousSponge [link] [comments]

I'm just worried that I'll take Chem 30 but since its been so long since high school I may not understand a single thing. Luckily the program I'm looking at (Water and Wastewater Treatment Op) just requires a 50%. Would it be logical to take Chem 20 just to familiarize myself again then 30? My brother suggests I could probably just read The Key which can be found online or in libraries. Also, I plan to take online school, which one would you guys recommend? submitted by /u/asscraq [link] [comments]

It was a very strange evening... Last night around 12:15am we had an unsolicited pizza delivered to our door. As we were waking up to go talk to the driver, another car rolled up and someone stole the delivery driver's car (he had left it running). Called the cops and chatted to them for a bit. Have some very unhelpful video from the door bell camera. Has anyone experienced something like this before? Mostly concerned as to why our house was used for this ambush! Stay safe out there Calgary. submitted by /u/shoodbworking [link] [comments]

I am curious to see if others had any experience with travel agents since this is literally the first time in my life I have even attempted to use one. We are looking for a fairly last minute flight to India (2.5 Weeks out) for a family member, searching normal ways online we get a price. We were told about a travel agency in the NE and that they are usually cheaper than online tools. Went there last night and they beat all the online tools by about $350. They told me they can do this for places like India, Pakistan, Egypt, Isreal, Bangladesh etc most of the time but not Europe, USA. Is there a way for me to use their tools at home, or know a way to search better? Or do they just have access to the less common places at better rates somehow? submitted by /u/DDP200 [link] [comments]

I recently moved here and this is my first time experiencing Alberta winter. I am trying to acertin if this was a mild winter compared to other year's or if the fear mongering from the media makes it worse than it really is. When I was looking for a place in Alberta all anyone could ever talk about was the bad winter. I hear the condescending remarks when I tell out of province coworkers I live here now. Even when the temperatures dipped to - negative double digits, I was still able to move around with some good winter tires. What's your take, do you think this a milder winter compared to previous years? submitted by /u/mprogams [link] [comments]

Many of you are probably familiar with the car dealership Renfrew Chrysler mailing out "trade in your car offers" titled as a "rent subsidy." Here is the original thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/assholedesign/comments/10sywzg/local_car_dealership_disguises_their/ ​ Although no one was asked, many people did leave Google reviews on Renfrew Chrysler with low star ratings complaining about this advertising. I did this because I felt the rent subsidy was unethical and misleading. As a result of these 30+ reviews, their rating dropped from 4.2 to 4.1. ​ This morning Google emailed me and my 1 star review had 35 upvotes. However, their overall rating was back up to 4.2/5 - which I thought was strange as it had only been a few days so I did some investigation. ​ I can still see my review if I am logged in to my Google account, but if you re-visit the review page in an incognito browser, all of the negative reviews related to the rent subsidy direct mail campaign have been taken down by Google. This makes me even more frustrated as it appears Renfrew Chrysler has few consequences for engaging in such a deceptive marketing campaign. submitted by /u/lavender812 [link] [comments]

Just wanted to put this out there.. this Friday night I had an anaphylactic allergic reaction. My throat closed up and I couldn’t breathe (within minutes) My son had to give me my epipen, and had to call 911. A fire truck and an ambulance showed up within minutes of his call. Over the last couple of years, I’ve had a handful of similar situations- not once have I had an issue with an ambulance showing up in a timely fashion (especially considering an anaphylactic episode can be deadly in seconds, if not minutes)… I get that maybe I have good luck with ambulance response time and that it isn’t always the case, but I just wanted to put a positive comment out there about the EMS/fire fighters that respond to our 911 calls. submitted by /u/EllaBelle1983 [link] [comments]
