I did then when she neglected to cooperate I emailed the picture and story to the wetaskiwin newspaper. It's pretty gross, and she was a real you know what. Going to call the restaurant in the morning and give the manager her name as well. It's not her fault about the wings, but she could have dealt with it properly.

Any true good service perso would have made the bill disappear, she must not like her job much.

Nano 04-22-2012 06:17 AM

Yeah she didn't seem thrilled to be there LOL. Oh well. On another note my wife is having a lot of contractions today and severe lower back pain, sounds like the early signs of labor :D fingers crossed I wanted meet this little one soon!

Nice! Only advice, stay out of the hospitals :razz:

Zoaelite 04-22-2012 04:01 PM

I'm grabbing travelers insurance just encase, was it the bill or the experience your talking about Brad?

There are lots of things I have been told to avoid down there :neutral:.

I love Jamaica!

It's not a holiday like most others though. Me and my wife are pretty adventurous and like to head in to the areas where the locals go to get the full experience but Jamaica isn't one of those places. We did leave the resort a couple times but it's simply not safe to do so and it felt that way.

Enjoy the resorts and excursions they are amazing!

The diving is incedible, many wrecks to see depending on what part you are heading to.

The hospital needs some upgrades. And you must check all weapons at the door, assuming they have room in the weapons drawer. Seriously :)

We spent 24hrs in hospital in Montego Bay, emergency, specialists, xrays, blood work, meds and a night in the wards, total, $178 US. The bill was manageable :)

Interesting Morning
 
Woke up this morning in excruciating pain in lower left abdominal area, off to the hospital I went. Kidney stones YEAH.....:hurt:
IV line inserted. Saline drip . Then along comes the nurse with a syringe and introduces me to Mr. Morphine. Nice Guy . We had a great visit for 3-4 hours. Home now with only mild discomfort. Doc says I have 4-5 stones to pass, largest around 4mm.
Could be a long week.:twised:

gregzz4 04-22-2012 11:55 PM

What's with people posting 7 different adds when 1 in Hardware and 1 in Livestock would suffice ?

fishoholic 04-23-2012 12:15 AM

Watching an old episode of NCIS LA and on the show there was a fish tank in the victims house. Freshwater 55g tank with FW lights but was a saltwater tank with fake coral and FW fake plants, black gravel, adult emperor angel, 3 mono's, clownfish, and a porcupine puffer!!!!!!! Most awful thing I've ever seen on a TV show!!!!!!!! :puke:

Nano 04-23-2012 02:07 AM

Take that woman for a hike!

Seriously, walking is a great labor starter. My family has a history of being 10-14 days overdue with all the babies but I went into labor the day of my due date because I walked at least an hour everyday throughout my pregnancy. There's other triks she can try but they aren't as easy and some of them are just plain gross (like drinking castor oil :der: )

ETA: Sorry, didn't notice that she was running. In that case try SEX and lots of it!!!

Wow What a fun day it was, 3 - 5 hr shifts at hospital. Would just get back home and settled and it would fire right back up. Drugs that they give you to take home just didn't cut it. Got to know the nurses and doc pretty well.
2nd trip took 20 mgs of morphine and another antiinflamitory to put me too sleep.
I now have a deeper (much deeper) respect for women in labor. I'm told that they are similar experiences. But when you scale it down I still think I would rather have kidney stones..
Any how, we have class A painkillers and if it doesn't clear by Thurday, I get flown to Edmonton for a ultrasonic blast. HMMMMMMMM I hear there are nice LFS stores in the city.:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

Flash 04-23-2012 06:06 PM

lmao! that is funny! well not that you're hurting... but that you're actually thinking about fish!

reefwars 04-24-2012 04:20 PM

since everyone likes a good rant!!!
 
well here it is lol:


6mths ago i got a job with a guy, turns out the guys are complete drunk, drinks before work, is at the liquor store at 10 on the button and the b ar at 12 guaranteed everyday......this has always made me a bit bitter(contrary to popular belief....i dont drink) so for the last month or so ive been playing it smart and looking for jobs on the side.....


well today was the day to let him have it now that i have a better job starting tomorrow for more pay and better professionalism i told him this morning i quit,i finally got to say what ive wanted to say for month which is...almost word for word

" your a deadbeat drunk, you work 1 day a week, your family has gone to ****, your not a business man and you rely on your workers to make your company money cause you drink all day...

the company we subcontract off has offered to steal me away...why?? simply because im there 6 days a week past supper everyday and at the site at 7am.....the company is not stupid they know you drink during work hours...we can all smell it were not stupid...they know its me and my partner doing all the work.


they played it smart and hired us .......and you????.....well your gone buddy back to the bar or where ever you spend your daylight hours the company doesnt want your service, it finds it unprofessional and so do i.


it felt good as ive wanted to say this for months , but couldnt afford to do so during the winter.....now its the busy season.....you should have had your priorities straight , now you lost all your workers who are coming with me, youve lost your contract which i now have....


today life takes a new turn as my hard work has payed off and has been recognized by the contractor we get work from....haha :P


at first he didnt believe me about taking his contract......then igot a phone call from him....to say the leats he wasnt pleased.....but you know what.....you make your own bed bud...lay in it:)


oh and i was smart and got all my pay up front yesterday lol not giving another scammer/drunk a chance to scam me again:):)

Delphinus 04-24-2012 04:34 PM

Wow that is awesome (well, for you now, I mean. The whole lead up to the moment is kind of sad, but at least for you looking forward it has to be only upwards). Good luck to you in your next endeavor. It is nice to hear a case where karma actually showed up - it must feel very neat to have your hard work validated like that.
