I'm considering WFH tomorrow, my job can be done remotely but it's not easy to get permission, my boss is fussy about non-parents working from home (they are a parent). How bad are 'orange' alerts? Is it better to just stay home? My commute takes 40 minutes on a good day in the winters. Worst case, I will take the day off if it comes down to it, because I'm not risking driving in code orange.

What’s everyone’s recommendations for courses to boost the gpa this semester?

I know Jason deans courses are good

Are there any courses without exams or online exams ?(doesn’t have to be 2nd year)

Anybody else notice their collection day is changing?

Close to either university, walkable/bikable with cute cafes and shops, + lots of trees and access to nature

I am a 2nd year 310J apprentice looking for a shop to help me get certified

I’ve been applying to truck/trailer repair shops across Cambridge and Kitchener but haven’t heard anything back from anyone regarding hiring. I was wondering if anyone in this group has some info or leads on where to apply?

TIA

When are we supposed to get the marks back?

Is there anyone who works with Coresc kernel Mode driver? I have an issue with that

Am new to this. Taking the Eglinton LRT to commute to waterloo/Kitchener in the morning and then back to Eglinton and Yonge in the evening. Can someone guide me on specifics as to how this works and are there no direct trains in the morning to Kitchener from Mount Dennis?

For example, I tap on at Yonge but then what do I do at Mount Dennis, it states transfer at Bramalea…

Thank you so much

For people here who’ve done multiple co-ops — do you think specializing early gives you an advantage, or is it better to explore different roles first?

Commute would be 2 hours to toronto 5 days a week, and need to reach office by 8.30

Just for the summer

Hi. I'm in 2nd year Math and I'm behind on my classes by at least a month. I was "able" to cram midterms for 3/5 of them (the other midterms haven't happened yet), but I only achieved low 50s, which is not the greatest. I have considered going to office hours, but I'm embarrassed that I'm so behind, and I also generally don't know where to start in catching up. I don't go to class because I skip class to catch up on the class I missed, which I'm going to try and change starting after reading week.

Will my profs be judgy that I'm so behind and not going to class/ would it be worth it? Also what else should I be doing that I'm not?

anyone know any places that are close? or any deadstock clothing stores in the area?

How did everyone do?? It was a bit tough ngl

before engineering i used to watch p*rn for 2-3hrs per day (unless I genuinely physically couldn't like on an airplane or something) and g*on so much my dihh would physically hurt . I used to go on websites and would be able to identify specific videos because I went on it so much. but engineering is genuinely so hard and stressful and draining i became sober as a byproduct and stopped being an addict without realizing. its good but my mental health is worse now though

im in cs applying to summer '26 swe/data roles. a whole lotta applying and not a lotta interviews. please brutally brutally roast my resume head to toe 🙏🙏🙏

also is math tutor relevant on my resume?
what about my projects, i made them a while back are they too mundane

Got nothing to do so I’m fckin depressed as hell.

Can’t even go out cause it’s still winter and cold af.

All my friends dipped back to their hometowns to chill with their families.

So yeah, literally nothing to do and I’m fckin miserable.

Lowkey wish classes were still going, even if studying’s hard at least I’d have something to grind instead of rotting like this.

I am wondering if anyone knows of someone who has a Rav 4 Toyota 2013, with very low mileage that they would want to sell to a young driver, maybe they want to buy a newer or different model. I thought it would be better for both rather than just trade it in for almost nothing. thank you for your help.

I’m a content creator and doing some heated rivalry spoofs.

Would want a full set but open to pieces. Open to borrowing or buying for an agreed-upon price.

I recently got my acceptance to planning, and while I also applied to architecture, I'm considering swapping to planning since that was my end goal anyways, and everything I've seen about the planning program indicates I'd be able to have a successful career without needing to go through the trouble of going through arch and likely needing a masters. So my questions are:

Is this a good major? Are the profs good and helpful?

How are the co-op opportunities? Are the co-ops extremely competitive and limited, or is there more breathing room than like, engineering or cs?

How's the workload? Is it manageable or is it hair-loss inducing (or at least less hair loss inducing than like eng or arch lol)?

How customizable is the degree? Can I specialize and do a minor as well?

How enjoyable is the degree itself (like classes, the atmosphere amongst the students, etc)?

Any responses to any of these questions would be really helpful.

I don't usually ask questions like this online but I thought I'd give it a try since everything happened so fast this evening.

Our furnace made a rumbling noise once in a while apparently which I never heard but others in our household said they did. We called Reliance and the technician said the furnace needed to be replaced immediately and put a tag on it. I read that the tag can be removed if it's reassessed and found that it was still operable.

The furnace works fine without any issues, but the technician claimed that there were cracks he could see with his camera that would make it dangerous to operate.

He then called a salesman and asked him to come over right away. Within 45 minutes he was at our house going over rental plans.

They have technicians scheduled for tomorrow morning at 8am to come in and install the new unit.

I feel like my dad just got scammed into this and all that the furnace needed was to be serviced maybe.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Edit: How locked in are we with the papers that were signed?

Any GSA St Patties, ticket available, need 2 please DM me🙏

Hi guys, my friends and I are currently looking for a place to live next year and are new to this and thus have a few questions:

- Do students negotiate rent? Silly question, but I feel like the big apartment buildings don’t negotiate.

- what’s the deal with Rez one having a 3 year term with a 12 month minimum? I don’t get it

- is Rez one bad? I’ve seen very mixed reviews with people complaining about bugs and terrible WiFi, but I feel like people only go on Reddit to complain if they’ve had a really terrible experience and thus the sample is highly biased.

- any advice pls !!

Thanks

I'm technically unemployed for Jan to April term so I can still see Waterlooworks postings. If anyone has been in the same situation as me, you would know what I'm talking about. What's up with all the random straggler jobs that are still up in the full cycle service?

Last week there was a random one for May to August that was posted in the winter recruitment cycle, and another random one for Jan to August that was due in like February. Did someone just mess up? Are these postings even real? Does anyone have any idea why these exist?

Looking for recommendations on employment lawyers in the area.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations.

AFM student going into 2B, currently on my first co-op at a Big 4. Starting to look into finance roles for Fall 2026 and trying to figure out timelines.

I know networking matters and I’ve started chatting with people, but does anyone know when apps usually open for Big 5 banks, pension funds, etc.? I saw OTPP already closed for Fall which surprised me. Are there other firms that recruit that early, or is that an exception?

Any rough timelines would be appreciated 🙏

I own a small rental where I live in one unit and rent out the other. It is not listed as a business, it is owned by me and my sibling personally . My last accountant made an error that he is not acknowledging and I would like to switch to a different accountant. Does anyone have recommendations for an accountant ?

if you’ve done co-op through waterloo AFM, roughly how much did you make total across all your work terms, and did it cover a big chunk of tuition and living costs? I really wanna go to Waterloo but the tuition plus living cost of AFM is a lot, the co-op program is what gives it the edge for me but I want to know if that reason alone is worth it.

finance co-op experiences would help the most, but any experiences would be greatly appreciated :)

Can anyone whose taken the course before give some tips on how to prepare for the midterm? Will understanding the content on the class slides and running through the in-class problems be enough to prepare? I have it with Flora Niu

Are these anti reqs. I already took stat331 and taking econ 421 this term. It doesn’t say anything about stat331 being an anti requisite on undergrad calendar for econ421 and they didn’t flag me when i enrolled. Pls someone help what should i do. Is it my fault or both will count.

$16.99 for this whole thing at Marketoo on the corner of Park and Victoria. They also sell giant flats of eggs for $12.99, but you need to bring your own carton if you don't want to just take them back to your place in a flat.

The apples are organic, from farmers in Elmira. The lettuce is local also, and they have local field cucumbers (regret getting the English cuke, tbh; so much plastic!)

They also have crates of apples and giant bags of onions, potatoes, and carrots, all local and for a decent price. Would suggest checking them out!

PS: I am not being paid or anything to talk about this, I just wanted to brag a bit and let people know about a new local business. Edit: A word and spacing...
