That might be a different story. Unless they too had a policy of no male genitalia waxing as well. But there are 12 other places in Windsor to try that maybe don't have a Muslim waxer and a no male genitalia policy. https://www.google.ca/search?q=Winds...istate=lrl:xpd

I think it's kind of a slap in the face to people who have real problems they have to sue for. Like people who get sick from pharmaceuticals or something.
Not to say this persons feelings aren't valid but honestly you can wax your own legs at home lol. You can buy the wax and have a friend do it for free. If my feelings get hurt by someone in the service industry, could I get 50k? Probably not since I'm a straight woman.

My wife and I have been using a shared notebook on OneNote, and it is quite convenient! I've setup a shopping list that either of us can edit from our phone or computer. When I'm at the grocery store, I can bring up the checklist and it will have always have the latest revisions of what I need to bring home.

I've travelled with loose vitamins in those pill boxes in my luggage without issue. Also travelled with them in the original bottles and was fine.

Usually you buy the blank key, and the cutting is free. It depends on the type of key you need.
"Cheapest" is moot here because you're talking about a difference of cents, or a few dollars at best - do whatever's most convenient.
Large stores won't duplicate the key if it sais DO NOT DUPLICATE on it. Smaller shops will do it if you pay them in cash, in my experience lol

Then friend told me it's only $4 at Asian shops. So it's more than a few cents/$ difference. Especially when you have quite a few keys to copy.

last time i had a key done at a big box store like rona or HD it was under $5. it was a few years ago though. IIRC the HD by gilmore does a poor job but it may have been the employee not the machine.

It’s most likely the employee. They wouldn’t design a machine that did a poor job. Once in a while, you get a really knowledgeable employee who knows their shit, but a lot of the Home Depot employees wouldn’t know a Philips from a Robertson from a Torx. “Oh, you mean the square one?” Or the guy who says “star” screwdriver. You mean a Torx? He was referring to a Philips. A plus or cross or even “x” would have been more correct. I mean, seriously, do they make a fucking, “Star of David” screw head and driver nowadays? CiC?
This is what happens when they stop grade eight kids from having to take Industrial Education. /rant
In my day, IE included, power mechanics, drafting, metalwork, and electronics. Intro course, but it taught everybody good useful skills. Nowadays kids don’t know which way to turn a shut off valve.

^ lol I had to take that, but it also included cooking and sewing and was called life skills I believe. To be honest it was probably one of the more useful classes I ever took, unlike the pointless career and personal planning which was once a week for all of highschool

Ran all 3 years I was in middle school IIRC ('94-'97). I was pretty terrible at everything but they were interesting classes and most of the kids seemed to enjoy them.
CAPP was so completely useless. Learn how to write a resume ... ??? ... profit!
We did 6 years of CAPP and it seemed like all we did was personality tests and then have the teachers tell us that's what we're meant to do even if we had zero interest (or talent) in doing it ... or look up how much different professions make.
Zero useful career or personal skills besides writing resumes. Complete waste of 1.5 hours/week for 6 years.

So my parents used my jerry cans without telling me, and they left about 10L of regular in the can. I thought it was 91 and topped up my car with it. So does octane booster really help? How much do I need? I was planning to fill the other 75% of the tank with 92 Chevron/Shell

It probably won't make a big difference if the tank is still mostly premium unless you're going to be putting heavy stress on it (track, towing, etc).

Saturday’s game kicks off a busy stretch for the Revs that will see them play three games in eight days, and six in 18. While MLS rules constrain the use of charter planes, the team will have the use of the New England Patriots’ team plane for this trip. They’re taking full advantage, bringing more than 100 people on the flight, as their U15, U17 and U19 teams will join the MLS club for the trip to the West Coast. They’re schedule to take on the Caps’ residency teams at UBC on Friday.

Recommendations on a notary?
Bought a place and need to have all the documents and titles transferred etc. I've called several locations with quotes that seem like a random number they chose to pick. Anyone here have any they've used recently & quotes?
