looking to build a website for my canadian business - which one should I go with ? Wix?

I do home renovations and need a website for my clients especially older ones to go on and look through my work and what we do etc. I’m already on facebook and instagram and it’s been awesome. But would like to have a website now. I’m in Canada so any recommendations from the USA may not work for me.

I do not want to sell anything on this website. it’s strictly to showcase my work.

I work at Starbucks but have an interview for a small non-chain cafe in my town

Has anyone here worked at Starbucks (or any chain like cafe) and then worked for a small little family owned cafe ? How did the transition go ? are you happy? I know it truly depends on your mindset, who you were with, how the owners are etc… but starbucks completely drains me. I work at an extremely high volume store where we don’t even have time to talk to one another. It is constant customers and we are to focus on speed over anything else.

I would love to hear some positive stories. I love coffee and I love being a barista!

Also, any advice and tips are much appreciated. Hopefully this is the right place to post this question!

How to prevent gift card scam?

Not sure if this is the right group to ask BUT i’ve seen another post similar so im posting it . I got 2 shoppers gift cards as a gift from my boss. I’m scared that someone is going to hack them and use them up when I really need them. Is there a way to make sure these funds remain mine ? The only option I see is to go and use them up quickly but I really wish to hold onto them to use when i really need something from shoppers or when they have deals going on

are baristas going to be obsolete in the next few decades ?

all our drinks could technically be made by a machine with a click of a button ….. just saying. the company would “save money” on labour this way… what are your thoughts ? 😳

Persian cat is very matted, what do I do ?!

I’m fostering a persian cat who was very upset when she first got here. She sits on my chest and lap now thankfully and settled right in. Her matts are SO BAD. I’ve never fostered/adopted a long haired cat so this is VERY new to me. She has thick clumps on the sides of her.

I was given some gabapebten for her when she first got here incase she never calmed down or had a hard time. I’ve given her a lot of patience and built trust so I never had to use Gaba! she’s also a flat faced breed so when given gaba i have to monitor her.

My question is.. should i buy a cat grooming kit and try to shave her myself ?! I’m scared of cutting her. I’m also so scared of using scissors as well because i don’t want to cut her skin. What do I do ?!

GLP-1 probiotic , is there any harm in taking this?

Before you say it, I completely understand that this will not have the same effect as Ozempic (and other GLP-1’s). What I’m asking is, is there any harm in taking this? My brother purchased it and says he wants to try it out. Wondering if anyone has any feedback or if they tried it.

Sidekick or PrimeLister… that is the question.

just as the title suggests, which app should I go with? I’m looking to cross list a bunch of stuff from Poshmark to other platforms. I’m also looking for them to relist old postings and share my closet, etc. which one do you recommend and why?

If there are other apps that are not sidekick or primelister that you recommend please let me know in the comments !! thank you.

Painful cyst/boil on my labia minora

I googled images of a diagram to see where this cyst is and it looks like it’s on my labia minors. It’s super painful when I wipe but thankfully not when I walk or work.

What should i do? Should I go to the doctors office and get antibiotics? Or is there a way to kind of relieve the pain and swelling at home?

Hopefully someone that has gone through something similar can give me some advice. Thank you so much.

Looking for somewhere to take pictures after wedding in late October in Niagara Region

Hi all! We’re getting married in late October of next year and are looking for somewhere elegant and classy to take pictures and we need recommendations!

So far we have browsed through Queens Landing in NOTL. That’s the type of vibe we are looking for. (Old money, classy, lots of places to take different types of pictures)

It has to be indoors as it will be cold in late october!

If we like the area for pictures and it happens to be a hotel, we will definitely be booking the night.

( We don’t want to do the butterfly conservatory)

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
