Hello,
I have 10 years customer service and office experience and want to know how to get clerical positions for RCMP/VPD?
I also have a lot of criminology coursework completed from Kwantlen.
I am turning 37 at the end of the year and celebrating my fifth anniversary next month. Out of these five years of marriage, I have endured a pregnancy loss and carried the weight of taking care of my sick father, both of which put immense stress on the early years of our marriage. Because I’m approaching 40—and because everyone knows how much I love kids—I get asked constantly about children, often met with surprised looks from family.
While navigating infertility, this is what I remind myself: motherhood isn't playing house, and raising children is the hardest job I will ever do.
Yes, I want to experience life growing inside of me, and I deeply want that mother-child bond. But I also have to acknowledge the stress it places on my body and mental health. It feels like many people long for children mainly for the baby phase—but that phase passes in the blink of an eye, and raising a human being lasts a lifetime.
Whether or not motherhood is in my future, I am learning to appreciate the freedom, peace, and resilience I have right now. My life has value and purpose, with or without a baby
I came here to have a good time, but if you push my buttons, I am fully prepared to turn this dance floor into a brawl—and look amazing doing it
I have really become numb to having another failed cycle but this month my body was EXTRA MEAN to me.
Starting taking vitamin D3/K2 with Myo inositol D Chiro. My cycles are pretty regular 30-31 days. I really thought there was some hope because there was a delay in my period. Nope, just 2 days late.
That "late period tease" is a particularly cruel form of emotional whiplash. When you are tracking every detail and hoping with everything you've got, those extra two days feel like a whole lifetime of building hope, only for the floor to drop out from under you.
So this is a pakistani style saree hence the conservative blouse style. Thoughts?
Growing up, eating beef was completely off the table due to my family's religious background, so cooking steak was a totally foreign language to me.
so after I got married, decided to step out of my comfort zone and learn how to prep and sear one. This is a flank steak so it’s not a thick cut. I’m not allowed to eat it but my husband gave it a 10/10
Hey everyone! I posted a video recently comparing my 7lb Chihuahua-Shihtzu mix and my neighbor's Chihuahua who we assumed was a purebred deer head chihuahua.
Naturally, the comment section descended into people arguing about whether deer-heads are purebred, debating brachycephaly/BOAS, and even calling non-purebred or shelter dogs "undesirable."
My chihuahua is a chihuahua shih tzu mix and everywhere I go, people stop me to compliment on how pretty my dog is. I can’t believe someone would look at her and call her undesirable because she’s not a full chihuahua.
Hey everyone,
I just got my results from my second attempt at the BC Fundamentals of Insurance exam and I scored 67% — 3 points away from passing. I’m heartbroken but wanted to share my experience in case it helps someone else.
A bit of background: I scored 61% on my first attempt back in May. Between attempts I studied incredibly hard — built comprehensive notes, created a 275-question quiz, worked through practice exams, and scored 79-84% on mock tests leading up to today. I genuinely felt prepared.
My scores today:
• General Insurance: 74% ✅
• Habitational: 73% ✅
• Commercial: 60% ❌
• Liability: 65% ❌
• Travel: 60% ❌
• Automobile: 50% ❌
What’s frustrating is that I improved in almost every section from my first attempt — especially Automobile (up from 30% to 50%) and General Insurance (up from 63% to 74%). But I still fell short.
I’ve been studying through a really difficult personal period — my dad has been sick, I’m dealing with fertility challenges, and a lot of stress at home. I kept going anyway because this license means a lot to me and my career.
I’m not giving up. I’m going to book my third attempt and come back stronger.
For anyone else who has failed this exam — how did you push through? Any specific tips for Commercial, Liability, Travel, and Auto? What finally helped you pass?
Mustered up the strength to prepare this after having the worst day.

Hello, I have my General Insurance final on Thursday and my notebook is full of study material.
Any advice on how to go over my notes. Looking at all the writing stresses me out.
While Guddi (1971) is widely celebrated as a wholesome, lighthearted classic that famously deconstructed the glamour of Bollywood star culture, looking at it through a modern lens reveals several tropes that can certainly be viewed as problematic.
Guddi is explicitly introduced as a schoolgirl, she is wearing a uniform, carrying schoolbooks, and is clearly a minor. On the other hand, Navin is a grown man with an established engineering career. The film normalizes an adult man actively pursuing, developing romantic feelings for, and planning a marriage with a girl who hasn't even finished high school.
Because Guddi is viewed by her family as immature due to her celebrity crush, Navin is brought in to help "educate" her about the real world. This sets up a highly unequal power dynamic. Instead of a courtship between two consenting adults, it feels closer to a form of behavioral grooming, where an adult man participates in a scheme to correct a young girl's behavior so she becomes a suitable, compliant wife for him.
The rush by her brother-in-law and sister to marry her off the moment she shows a mind of her own is a glaring reflection of patriarchal anxieties. In their eyes, Guddi’s passionate fandom is a dangerous sign of independence and unbridled emotion. Instead of supporting her education or giving her room to grow, the family’s immediate reaction is to anchor her down with marriage as a containment strategy.
By modern standards, the family isn't protecting Guddi; they are rushing a minor into matrimony with an adult who has been complicit in manipulating her. It really highlights how much the cinematic definition of a "wholesome family arrangement" has shifted over the decades.
My husband's and my dinner. Our families are from Fiji so the curry base is more thinner than what you find in Indian restaurants.
Hello,
I am on the waiting for my first IVF procedure after almost 5 years of infertility. I have tried conceiving naturally and only managed to get pregnant on my second cycle of letrozole which ended in a chemical. I spoke to my fertility doctor because I believe I might have endometriosis. I’ve been constantly spotting 3-5 days before my period and when I addressed my concerned she said my AMH level is at 9.9 when it should be 15!
Hearing that news today really messed me up because it’s making me feel like I waited too long or that my egg quantity has gone down. I’ve also been told that my thyroid levels are too high that’s also affecting my chancing of conceiving so my only option is IVF.
Yeah… so fml 😵💫
A side of mashed potatoes would’ve been nice but I was on a time crunch.
Indian food is the hardest to plate.
This is what my husband and I eat when I don’t feel like cooking. All vegetarian.
