lol man it was more than 3-4 inches on the CTV news it said 7 inches. worst part is, i was on the highway when it happened and took me 3 hours to get to regina through it because you couldnt see the road and everyone was in the ditch. a girl in front of us was going 40 and without even hitting her brakes did 2 full spins on the middle of the high way in a little focus.

I've been held in benefit purgatory at work for the last 14 months.

I got fed up and told my boss, that if I didn't have health, dental and vision insurance again before snowboarding season (since I missed last season due to lack of these), I quit.

Today my benefit plan begins

(i lost my benefits when I had reduced my hours at work from full time 40\wk to part time 24/wk for school reasons 4 semesters ago. i've worked full time again since that semester ended, and was promised reinstatement of full status and benefits a bit over 14 months ago...just NOW happening.)
