I work in construction and when I was younger and single I did a couple years ago a remote work site; two weeks on and one week off rotations. We all stayed in the company provided camp while there. Definitely formed some strong friendships with my coworkers while there and made/saved a ton of money. It was an interesting experience.

I was a field engineer but jobs in the trades are always in high demand pretty much everywhere.

As someone with family members who are type 1 diabetics, I have heard the joke that everyone who gets diagnosed with it is told there will be a cure in 10 years. It's nice to see they've started trials on this at least.

The hormones really carry you through. Lol. And at least it's relatively short with a positive end goal.

I don't understand how they think this is going to help staffing when they will be unable to find staff in areas where there is a higher cost of living.

In the last line of the article some restaurant person said "it's very popular with people and runs out within the first half hour" . . . but perhaps the general population isn't sure what to do with them yet, as much as the chefs do anyway.

Yeah, this is probably the highest educated genre by necessity.

Ontario is now top of the list.

My husband only found out he has ADHD at 46. Suddenly a lot of stuff is starting to make more sense to him about why he has struggled with certain things throughout his life. The meds have been helping too. Hope you get the help you need!

I hear you. I spent most of fmy social time as a teenager in those new-fangled chat rooms in the mid-late nineties and I don't think I ever really learned to socialize properly in person. Lol. That said, I don't find the newness of this platform too daunting. I was one of the people who left Digg back in the day too.

I do miss my May 2023 baby bumps group now that I'm on maternity leave and have a lot of down time feeding the little one though. It's not like it's easy for me to leave the house with a toddler and a newborn even if I was to join a real life parenting social group.

Ahh classic Jason.

Nice one!

I live in Alberta and this headline made me laugh because of how stupid it is. That said, Seattle and Detroit are quite a ways away from Alberta, but yes, a reasonable distance for people in southern Ontario or BC.
