Haha I had an art teacher in high school with tattoos. She would show us the one on her arm and how jiggly it was and she was like “just be careful where you put it so it doesn’t end up looking like this one!” LOL!!! She was so funny. She had lots of tattoos.

Because spending more money somewhere else, means I don’t lose an entire day of my life because my sensory overload from Costco makes me unable to function for the rest of the day.

Everyone walking the same way. Limited capacity. Everyone got in and out of Costco so quickly. No one running into each other because you all had to walk the same way. Going back to how it used to be is pure madness to me & my anxiety is so high going there I’d rather spend more money elsewhere

I wish Costco had the option for online pickup. I’d drive to Costco for that. I’d love to order online ans just pickup. I very much dislike going into Costco in Victoria. It is so overwhelming and stressful for me. The only time I enjoyed shopping there was peak COVID times.

Sure! I am game for that too! I honestly don’t care which way it is. I will adjust to it. I just want to stop the needless time changing!!!!

I am so done with daylight savings. And like, it changes to daylight savings for the SUMMER when the days are getting longer anyway so WHY DO WE KEEP DOING IT?‽ just leave it at standard time and be done with it!!!

HOLY BANANA RAMA!!!! Gosh I love the deals at that store!!!!

I want to bake banana bread. But I don’t have chocolate chips. So I need to go to the store. But I really don’t want to go to the store today. Lol

Not really a big deal but it is my current dilemma.

Then I say it’s time to stop trying because he’s never going to stop until he gets what he wants. Just move on with trade with the rest of the world and let the US sort themselves out.

Prime Minister Mark Carney says it's clear the U.S. will keep targeting certain sectors with tariffs even after the renegotiation of the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement on trade.

Carney says renegotiating CUSMA likely won’t resolve all trade issues with U.S.

Oh that’s good at least!

Jennifer Dempsey @jdempseydesign.bsky.social · 11d

Yes 🙌 and it’s ridiculous that because tipping is expected that restaurant workers minimum wage is lower than other places.

Jennifer Dempsey @jdempseydesign.bsky.social · 11d

This too!!!!

😬😬😬

On @thezone.fm this morning I heard how BC restaurants are trying to let the gov allow them to buy liquor from private stores durning the strike. That’s a form of crossing the picket line. I understand it from a biz perspective but they should be urging the gov to resolve with their workers instead

Same! I just hope they do it before my trip in November lol or after (or during because I wouldn’t mind getting trapped in a tropical destination 😂)

Time for all of us to show organizations that the people have the power!

I hear westjet might strike too (after seeing the success with the air Canada strike).

What is wrong with people?‽! 😫

Jennifer Dempsey @jdempseydesign.bsky.social · 15d

LOL the Santa outfits 🤣

Like honestly, I was trying to be a good neighbour and be like hey I need to just put this here for a couple days, but nope. Clearly I should have just done it and then said “oops sorry my bad” instead of asking first.

Jennifer Dempsey @jdempseydesign.bsky.social · 15d

You know what I hate? When people make it easier to ask for forgiveness rather than asking for permission.

For example, my strata if you do something like leave an item in parkade for a day nothing comes of it. But if you ask permission to leave something there for a day? Nope, you get scolded.
