Re: Using lawyer for LMO
OMG I love that show! On Season 5 second last episode atm... 2nd last episode of the show 
I won't comment further as I didn't see Novo's post before Siouxie snipped it, but if it was about Breaking Bad, i'm sure it was good
(and please do repost, Novo )
And if that's the case and Siouxie you haven't watched breaking bad, start. It will be all on netflix, every last episode on 24th Feb. Its already all on UK netflix if you have that.

Re: Using lawyer for LMO
And best $8/month you will spend, if it werent for my little siblings watching the kiddie channels we'd cut cable (screw paying Robbers(Rogers) $60/month for cable) in favour of netflix.
Add another $5 for the www.unblock-us.com to unlock UK or US netflix and it's still the best $13/month.
What else are you going to do with your free time when it's this cold out?

Re: Using lawyer for LMO
Yeah, it didn't work out because I was 21 and played it wrong and I'm the first one to admit it was one of the dumbest ideas I have ever had.
The other thing that I have found out about this board is that majority on here are extremely negative and often say: you won't succeed or that won't be possible.
I remember when I came here before moving to canada and asked how the job market was, I have heard from 90% of people who replied that I will not find work because:
- I have no higher education
- I don't have canadian experience
- my experience from other countries is irrelevant
- I won't get the job for the money I want since Toronto is super competetitive and they themselves have been struggling for x amount of time
In the meantime I landed, I had a huge response from recrutiment agencies where I was told that 'canadian experience" or lack of diploma is often an excuse they give to people who are lousy candidates. Within 4 weeks I've had a permanent job offer for 65k.
When I had canadian immigration asking me for Mexican police certificate people were also rather negative and told me it would be so hard for me to get it. Well you know what, I did what i had to do, I bribed police station in Mexico and had state one sent to me without even going there which is something they don't do.
Seriously, if I let things and people negative comments stop me I would never get anywhere in life. I appreciate constructive advice such as the one I got from xmasoompa but the rest of you, please save it for someone who cares.

Re: Using lawyer for LMO
So hang on are you or are you not a PR? You need your boss to apply for an LMO for you? Presumably it's a Canadian company - so by referring to him as your boss you are implying you are working illegally. Is this 65k job offer the one we are talking about right now???

Never mind, it IS the best series ever. The first few episodes were rather dry in my opinion and I thought the show was "meh" but once it got going OMG it's so good!

Re: Using lawyer for LMO
Just a shame the Sony/samsung/Panasonic smart tvs and blu ray players don't work with it. They're locked to their home region, at least according to the support posts. Just a nice easy way to access. Obviously other alternatives like hooking laptop to TV, apple TV, xbox, etc. Would just be nice if that problem was solved!

Re: Using lawyer for LMO
s'okay trawled through previous posts - I see she's on an IEC and will sell her grandmother to stay.
Breaking Bad doesn't interest me and I have no idea what it's about (well maybe bit but I still don't care)

Re: Using lawyer for LMO
She is on a Polish IEC from previous posts ( didn't know they had an allocation) This thread made me chuckle.
Is $65k and accurate account for an exec assistant....sounds a lot unless you have a long amount of experience.

Re: Using lawyer for LMO
I just wanted to apologise for my statement to Siouxie on this thread. It was childish and had I taken the time to think things through, I would have acted differently. I am ashamed of myself.
