CRA Reassessents. Fuckers.

I one got a reassessment letter at the end of November and had to pay it by mid December, that was a nice Merry Christmas from those clowns.

Granted I am not a Doctor but doesn't that just mean your accountant fucked up 99.99999% of the time?

Mine is for the 2019 tax year, so I'm already owing penalties and some interest the day I got the letter. Apparently I missed one of the info slips.

Second, related, pet peeve. The fact that CRA has all my info slips in their database, but it doesn't autopopulate my tax return, so if I lose one piece of paper mail, I'm fucked. Fuck you CRA.

penalties and interest is some non-trivial amount of CRAs revenue.

If you use QuickTax you can have it auto populate.
I got burned one year missing a tax slip. I'd moved and it got sent to the previous address. Since then I have them auto populate as well as check online to see if I have captured all of the slips the CRA has info for.

Black (paint color) Ram drivers who don't know the length of their truck and still won't come in after giving you over half a car length of space.

Don't know what is worse, black Rams with tinted tails or Denali drivers. Fuckin' newbs.

You should be happy they got back to you so soon. Often they'll wait the full seven years before they notify you.

Fun fact: Most countries don't require you to file taxes. They do it automatically.

People like this guy. Takes up two pumps, uses one to fill up his truck, and 9 jerry cans, then... INSTEAD OF MOVING UP, uses the back one to fill his boat. From the time I was there, he paid 9 times. of course, when you're stuck in a line at costco, you can't leave.
I hope he hits a pier and his boat explodes, taking out him and his entire family.

Did you know champagne coloured Camry's are 5 times longer than they appear?

Can we add boat people to the list with smokers and dog people?

**ShermanEF9** · 09-22-2021, 04:51 PM

Along with people who buy V6 camaros and straight pipe them.

Probably too many mentions of Delaware from your devices, triggered a second look

Prolly dat

$13 service fee for online vehicle registration renewal. It was easier to stomach when they at least mailed it to you after renewing online, but print-at-home for $13 is dumb.

Also what's with this thing about choosing a registry for an online renewal? Does the random registry i chose get a cheque from the government or something? Maybe the $13 fee that i paid? If so fuck that, why should they get paid for doing absolutely nothing?

Electrons cost money you know!

Mr. Mike's Plumbing. Absolutely terrible.
They refuse to let us know hourly rates or anything and everything is "up to the discretion of the plumber" to decide.
I asked them how much would it be to install a kitchen faucet for my parents assuming no issues and just a straight forward install and no surprises. Could not even provide an approximate range or anything. So stupid, surprised anyone would use them and let their plumbers decide how much they want to charge

**ExtraSlow** · 09-23-2021, 10:14 AM

Sounds like Clearview Plumbing! Buncha scammers who don't do free estimates, or phone estimates, and when they show up, they quote you 5x what the job should cost, because they don't really care if they get the work or not. Those green trucks still make me see red.

**ercchry** · 09-23-2021, 10:16 AM

It’s a funny industry like that… I worked with one guy who would over quote so he could make a regular wage, no more, no less… quote 2hr job as 8hr job… finish it, dog fuck the entire afternoon away

**Disoblige** · 09-23-2021, 10:19 AM

Sigh... With that said, anyone know a decent plumber who won't do shit like this?
I need to have a kitchen pulldown faucet installed at my parent's condo. Hell, I'll even pay a handy trades person on here as I would have more trust than Mr. Mike's.
