@XeL it's been a while. How did your process go of getting into mobile app development?

Looks like the made 2 accounts here, posted a video and link to gather some precious clicks, and then disappeared. Spamtastic.

Might look that way at first glance, but XeL is, I'm pretty sure, someone that some people like @Pol and @Joy know personally.

Yeah, @XeL is one of my devs around 2014. I think his good now, he's been a good iOS dev.

And by the way, can somebody delete my other acocunt? I dont use @Pol anymore. I can't access my credentials when I tried using that account.

I was going to say they have fine smokables too...

I am too old to smoke and cough, I would rather eat and be happy and make my stomach happy, I am not fan of smoking.

We need to meet man. I eat alone and don't smoke too. HA!

@Emad-R : Soo.. When are you moving to Canada?

Come to Canada, we have winter..

I need to come or my PR will expire, I thought I will get married in Jordan and start family and forget all about it, but for some reason I have deep desire to drive 10,000 KM away those days. hopefully that will change my mood and health.

I am planning on April-May and stay one year, I dont know how nor what nor where , but at least in Canada you have edibles .

aw man, reading your comment, I think you need somebody to eat those edibles WITH. Give me call when you get anywhere near here.

Not sure if I can be of help, but I once ask MangoLassi community to do a quality check on my resume and here's the result.

I always get a great feedback from the employers or recruiters every time they check this version of my resume.

How is things for you ? i think i might also move in couple of months to Manitoba as well. What advice can you give me ? I will stay a year or so.

How is transportation there ?

First of all, you have to get an apartment that has nearby bus stop and has buses that pass by time to time. You don't want to stay outside for 30mins in a -40C temperature. Some bus stops has corridors, some has heaters on the bench but most of them doesn't have. I'm lucky that I can see the upcoming bus from my apartment so I wait inside the building and I only ride 1 bus going to work. I suggest to get a car immediately once you get here.

Another thing is, invest on clothing! That's very important. It will benefit you in the long run.

Thanks,
I dont think we can get any good clothing for winter as the ones they sell there. I looked online and it seems used cars are cheap in Canada, can you really get one for only 1000 CAD ?

It's possible, but in Manitoba every vehicle has to get a safety inspection when it changes owners. Some people will sell a used vehicle with inspection papers, but for $1000 they probably will not.

So I'd you buy a car for $1000, you then have to get it inspected before you can register it, after it is inspected you have get all the repairs the inspection requires. I think when we moved to Manitoba, we had to do $1500 in repairs on our vehicle.

Yep pretty much accurate.

Buy some windproof clothes before going here, then buy more jackets and coats here because they're pretty cheap since they are common types of clothes in this place. About the car, yes you can get a decent and cheap cars here. Just make sure to buy to the right person.

@manxam I'm not offended at all. I actually 100% agree with you. I'm planning to move when I get to have a foundation like an experience and earn some cash of course.

I love Ottawa, Halifax, and Montreal.

I would love to move in any one of them

@manxam said in Just a regular day:

Cost of living is extremely high in Ontario and BC. Alberta is still where it's at for high salary with moderate cost of living...

BC is a beautiful place but, due to Asian investors, the cost of living is ridiculous. The government is trying to put a stop to that but we'll see where that goes.
Ontario is high because it's "the center of things" economy wise.

@darrel : Kore seems like a pretty large and decent company. Any reason why you'd be looking to move away from them?

Yeah pretty big. I'd say because of Winnipeg? Anyway, I'm still new here so I'm yet to actually decide if I'd settle here or not.

The good news is that you set a record: You were officially in the COLDEST PLACE ON PLANET EARTH a couple of days ago!

P.S. Free healthcare!

Thank you buddy! Yeah, free healthcare is a big help, very big help!

Helps to deal with the constant frost bite.

IKR!
