I came all the way to Squamish from Vancouver to do my Pesticide applicator license since this…read morelocation had more frequent testing times. The testing itself was really easy. There are some trick questions since some questions have answers which are all right, however, they want the best answer. It is hard to tell what is the best answer when they're all equally good. I studied at least 2 hours a day for the test for 4 weeks, therefore, didn't need to reference the book. They give you 3 hours, however, finished the test in 45 which includes double checking the work. They don't make up the test nor can they answer any questions. This is just the location that administers the test. Here is where they fall short. The lady working there, Candace is a real b*tch and needs to get over herself. Not only was she rude, condescending but she scolded me like a little child for two things. 1. I forgot my ID and she said she would look into it. I called home to see if they could go into my e-mail and foward my scan of my ID to the office so that I didn't have to go all the way home and come back another day. She didn't ask me to do it, however, in the event that there was no exception to take the test I wanted to have my basis covered 'cause that is what a smart person does...problem solve and make it work. She yelled at me like a 7 year old (I am 33 by the way) and said, "What are you doing? Did I ask you to do this? Can you not hear? I said that I would look into it." Second incident is that she got upset 'cause I started reading the instructions which said, "Please read carefully before taking the exam." She got upset and said, "Stop that I will explain it to you." I finally fuckin' lost it with her and her attitude. My own mother who has a history of being verbally abusive when I was younger never talked to me that way. I can't remember what exactly I said to her 'cause I don't take it kindly when someone treats me like shit for 1. trying to help or 2. Talking to me as if I am a child. I am sure that may have thrown an f-bomb or two at her. To top things off I was already stressed about the exam, I didn't bring my ID 'cause I wasn't told about the ID and it was already packed in my suitcase for Portland this weekend. Before the examination I tried to pay with for my exam, however, she said, "You're already late just get in here." Finally when I told her off she calmed down and tried to make amends, however, the damage was done. What is it with government workers in general and why are they all grumpy and mean? I can't complain to anybody about this 'cause government workers have automatic vito. What is really pathetic is that there are so many people in need of a job right now who would be blessed with a better attitude and this is how people are treated? For the record she was a b*itch to everyone. I am sure her staff think that she is a peach.

Plenty of parking, clean restroom, attractive building. I was delighted to turn the corner and see a top-notch coffee bar! Gleaming espresso machine, vacuum brewer, and a solo hand-press espresso machine on display. he Cortado and Americano were both really good. Just thrilled to walk in with low expectations for a carafe of anything caffeinated, and instead find a pro barista who cared and made magic in a take-out cup. Reasonably priced, quick, and takes Android Pay. Marking this one on my road map.

Polar Express - this was very very expensive for what it inevitably turned out to be. We paid…read morealmost $300 for 5 silver tickets, about the same as the Harry Potter experience! Now I don't know if it's very expensive to run the train back and forth along maybe a 1km span slowly for an hr or what. The kids got confused and I genuinely thought they'd forgotten someone and had to go back to the station until it continued past and went back and forth in an industrial area and past the same houses and condos numerous times. I really expected we'd go to another destination one way for 20-30 mins for a drop off somewhere magical and come back an hr or so later. Even if that wasn't the case, just go in one direction for 20 mins, then come back, make the trip worthwhile! The train itself is nice, interesting to see the Rocky mountaineer up close. Christmas decor was very minimal, a string of lights on each end and the pre packaged cookie came in the last 10 mins of the "journey". The cast of characters that came through was fun for the kids. No Santa on our train. And Christmas music made it festive. The museum that serves as the "North Pole" was decked out nicely for what it was and I appreciate the effort from what I can assume was mostly volunteer run and put together. It did remind me very much of what they would do at a place like the Roundhouse community center though... Had I known how it would be for the price we paid, I think we would have allocated that hefty sum to another set of activities around Vancouver. Even my 7 year old was saying 'look we're just back at the same station, we didn't go anywhere!'. I'm sure on a regular museum day it's a nice place. But seriously, for the amount of money we were charged, quite disappointed overall. Been there, done that. It was a decent experience for the children overall but there's so many other things that kind of $$ could be spent on. Know what you're buying and maybe you won't have the expectations we did.

This is usual, but it need not be. We all know what is involved in our respective households re. TV, phones, computers, and time lost in homework etc. Today I spoke about this to the hydro crew outside my house. They were sympathetic to the point of agreeing with me that the foreman should have notified the neighbourhood. I asked where he was and they said, "He is at his desk"! I phoned Hydro main office and lodged a formal complaint. If this had happened during the height of the heatwave; things might have had a tragic turn. We need to be told when any planned action like this will occur. Every time this happen we go offline, all electrical activities suddenly stop. Cars can be locked in or out of garages. Sensitive surge prone electronics can be compromised etc. You should care more and stop flexing your government backed power. Remember we are all still with COVID!
