I ordered pizza. It was actually pretty good. I ordered a can of coke but got pepsi instead. That pepsi does not work with pizza..

"Is Pepsi okay?"
"No thanks, I'll stick with water then".

Fuck Pepsi

Would it be better or worse to find the bag empty?

Companies that think changing their name will trick investors into thinking they are not in the oil and gas business.

That’s another good one. Changing your name to try and trick people into thinking you aren’t Canadian.

All pipelines should be clad in white. All white. Just pure white.

The “TC” in TC energy stands for Texas Crude right?

My new pet peeve is petrosight (Why not petrosite firstly). Hardly better than my excel cost reporting sheet and onedrive for documents.

Carriage bolts are for fuckheads. So are Phillips screws, for that matter. Both their inventors should be fucked in the mouth with a jackhammer.

Walked out to my car this morning, letter from CPA that my car hasn't been moved in 72 hours, BS on that as I took it out on the weekend and the letter was issued yesterday (May 18)

Demanded a call back from CPA, they confirmed it was some neighbor calling in, the car is parked directly in front of my house between the property lines, people need to fuck off and get mind their own business

This.

The only reason that ticket gets given out is due to a complaint. Usually they chalk you first to confirm you haven’t moved. The warning letter is actually a kindness.

Reminds me of the neighbours I used to have across the street from me. I parked on their side of the street one day, I quickly went inside my house to get something I forgot, I come out not even five minutes later and there's a note on my car.

There's been comically stupid "discussions" on my community FB group about street parking.

It 100% is, I spoke with CPA and they confirmed it my car was called in, I showed them proof and that it had moved in the past 72 hours and they basically said yea it's why we gave a letter

[killramos]

It’s a shit sandwich situation but unfortunately it is actually the law.

Sounds like you need to move the car every 72hours forever now, or park it off the street.

I’m guessing you know who called you in?

[ExtraSlow]

Fuck, I TRIED to get CPA to come tow an abandoned car that was parked 3 feet from the curb blocking the driving lane and they told me to fuck off.

It's pretty great living in an old neighborhood. Street parking everywhere
