Seems they reversed course on that. Or, they don’t know what they’re doing.
> It's been a confusing day.
> As Verity said, it turns out Canada and Mexico are not getting a new 10 per cent tariff after all.
> The White House reversed its earlier announcement in a new statement just now. Here's the bottom line: No new developments for Canada and Mexico today.
> That means there are still worldwide 25 per cent tariffs on steel and aluminum, on some auto parts in North America, and on some goods traded within North America outside the rules of the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement on trade (CUSMA).
> The bottom line here: Trump is starting an economic war on China, and U.S. allies are all taking some friendly fire. But a large swath of Canadian trade is spared.
The employer pays it for both part and full-time workers. The rates differ by province, but generally this works out two weeks of wages for the first few years with an employer - they can increase this if they want but that's the legal minimum.
In practice this just means that you can take two weeks and still get paid. You can forgo your vacation in some instances, but you still get paid out the vacation money. I used to do that when I worked part-time in college and was short of cash for whatever reason.
> "I know what I'm doing," Lambert said, as he put his files — and his pen — into a bag. Then he stood up, bumped into a chair and walked off, saying "Ciao" and waving his hand, before returning because he had neglected to pay the bill.
> As he paced around the restaurant waiting for the check, Lambert refused to answer questions about who he worked for or why no trace of his firm could be found.
My god. This would be perfect comedy if wasn't so concerning that it happened at all.
That's a really great idea for kids drawings. I'll always keep a select few special ones, but any parent knows you'll end up with an art gallery if you keep everything. Making a digital art gallery of that stuff is a really good approach to letting go.
I do this and just front load my day to have the more demanding stuff in the morning with the less demanding in the afternoon. It works well for me and if anything I feel my productivity has increased.
> First, I was required to loan my employer $3000 for a month by paying for all the expenses (including the unavoidable very expensive hotel rate) on my personal card.
This is the part that kills me. In my org people frequently travel at the last minute to Asia for weeks at a time. Those claims sometimes end up into the five figure range depending on the time of year. People have been almost stranded because they've maxed out their personal cards.
