Knack is good. People saying otherwise probably suck at it.
D:
Hey, fuck you!
got stuck 2/3 through

Well, some good news. Aced the phone interview and I seem to be the best candidate. In-person interview on Wednesday. Guess I'll owe Krafty a be-...a cider since that's a summer drink.

Congrats? I guess that means no more commutes to Scarborough.

Heh. Well, apparently my company has a new building next year near the Distillery anyways, and I can walk there in about 45 min from my place with 15 min via TTC...'when it works....


Fight me!

Next meet up, death from Coors Lite.

I shouldn't be complaining since I know others here don't have aj ob and are looking. However, I'm kind of stuck and just weighing everything together right now.

The pay is less, but there's more stability and any restructuring they've had (and they've had quite a few) they don't lay people off; they move them around. On the other hand, no bonuses and raises are for inflation only. Still, the company is big and there are a lot of women there, so there's constantly mat leave and lots of positions opening up to try stuff.

It's not the top 5 of the companies I'd like to work there, though it's still up there...

Take me with you.

Kuro, if you don't mind me asking, which place is this? Erm, I guess you can PM me on that if you'd like to answer the question.

I know some of the places in and around the Distillery. Not actually know them professionally speaking, just that I've looked up some of the companies working in that area.

Hey guys, so I honestly managed to surprise myself by getting the number of a cute waitress at a bar I went to last Friday, and we've been chatting a little here and there (mostly because of her hectic work schedule, which I understand)

I was wondering, for a first date, I'm hoping to find a nice coffeeshop that serves decent baked goods (a healthier variety than Starbucks), and if the weather is nice go skating at Nathan Phillips Square. Anything you can think of nearby that would fit that description? Admittedly, I would like to do Wanda's Pie In The Sky (never been, myself), but driving is always a pain and I'd rather find one spot I can stay in until I leave, and it's about a 25 minute walk. She and I both live too far out of the city for us to really take the TTC in; not to mention I at least have very poor sense of direction and wouldn't want to get us lost.

Hey friends, I'm going to Toronto this coming weekend to celebrate my birthday with some friends (Like 4-5 of us). What's a good low key pub to check out? Something central'ish.
 
I have some friends coming over tonight that wanted to play Fifa Soccer. So I go to the EA website and buy the PC version which is just a download.

they email me this:

"We Have Your Order

We’re processing your order and still need some time to deliver your game.

We process most orders within 24 hours. In order to protect our customers, we sometimes require additional verification and it can take up to 48 hours to complete an order."

WOW great! 24 to 48 hours until I'm allowed to download the game I just paid for! So awesome! That will come in handy for me in 2 hours when my friends get here!
Thanks EA! Origin is awesome!

*sorry. this has nothing to do with Toronto but I'm just mad about it*

Any of you lovely people get any deals Friday or planning to today?

Edit: also went to Uncle Tetsu yesterday and they seems to have smartened up or the demand has lowered. I saw the cafe had a few of the regular cheesecakes and the regular place had a very minimal line up. They also sell that ball shaped cheesecake now and if you only want that, there's no wait; you can just tell them and you can get it. Now that I think about it though, the girl working the counter was also a bit more efficient as well, so it could've been that. Either way, you shouldn't have to wait too long for the stuff anymore.

I picked up the Uncharted PS4 bundle which came with a GoWIII Remaster download code (regrettably now, since Amazon has it with AC: Syndicate and 50% off PS+).

Today was a lot of preorders:

Nier: Automata
Kingdom Hearts 3
Uncharted 4
Street Fighter V
The Last Guardian

Resident Evil: Origin Collection
Gears of War 4
ReCore


Questionable if I'll end up picking them all up at the end of the day, but better to do it now and cancel as info is revealed, rather than like it later and pay full price, right? Right?

I'd like to go to one in December but I've got a friend coming over in a couple of weeks and I'm leaving on the 18th. Hopefully whatever planned date it is will work for me too.
