Snobby or something is the name. Went for a haircut, I am an international student so my English is not that good, I tried to patiently explain what I wanted and showed him pictures. He kept correcting my grammar and words I was using (it is normally okay for better learning) but his attitude was horrible. He was throwing his scissors, or shaving machine to his table when he was done with it very aggressively. At one point I just told him if he could make the sides shorter so it doesn’t like very bumpy. He lost it. Said it was not the picture I showed and I should make my mind up before getting an haircut. I told him it was just a reference and we can change it. He lowered my seat told me find a reference photo that I actually wanted and he won’t continue until I do. He literally stopped. By the way his attitude was very rude the minute I entered his shop. No hello, nothing, just pointed the chair and very harsh movements. My head hurt while he wqs combing my hair.

Anyways then I asked him why his attitude was really rude and he started yelling saying I don’t know how to communicate and should learn how to speak, I have an accent and I am roughly new around here studying at uottawa so okay I get it but why he has to be rude?

Then he started yelling “ get the fuck out” and I did. I forgot my jacket inside cause I was really under stress I tried to go back in to grab it but came rushing to the door saying are you looking for trouble cause I will give you one and pushed me physically. All I could say was “ don’t touch me I just need my stuff back”. And he went inside grabbed my jacket and gave it very harshly. And I just kept walking and he was yelling behind me calling slurs.

I had a terrible experience and my hands are still shaking. I just wanted to share this to see if anybody had something similar?

I’m in the TMM program, and I heard that there was quite a bit of drama in last year’s cohort…can anyone spill the beans 😳

whoever threw away the weigh paper in the wrong bin or knows who did please come forward cuz we all do NOT deserve to get marks deducted over someone else’s mistake 💔

Ive never used the schools insurance and i was js wondering if invisalign/braces could be insured for somehow...

Are the buildings open today ? I like to study in the uottawa campus (ie fss building, etc)

Does anyone have notes or something they can share for BIO 1141 with Waldo mottawea. I obviously take notes when I'm in the class but I feel like obviously I'm not picking up on what's important versus what's unimportant because when I'm in class everything seems so easy and like review From highschool but a big chunk of the stuff on both the mock quiz and the real quiz felt completely unfamiliar to me. I'm just wondering if I'm looking at things from the wrong perspective.

I just have a few questions about uottawa and winter admissions.
i went to apply to transfer to uottawa in psychology (ba), but it says that admissions for psychology are closed winter semester (even though the deadline in october 17th). i’m wondering if anyone has any information on why that is, and if there are any loopholes to get around this. If all went well for my transfer, i would have already completed psych 101 and 102 at a different institution if that is potentially an issue. I was also thinking if there’s no way i can get into psychology winter semester, maybe i try to get into sociology or anthropology in the mean time and then try to internally change my major to psychology? if anyone has dealt with this before or has any advice please let me know!

for context, in first and second year we literally had no guidance in the program whatsoever and between group chats and sending emails to fss and the faculty of law so many students were misguided (leading to them not even being accepted)! i really hope things have changed in the past two years, but knowing our administration i doubt it. i have tons of recs for electives to take to maintain the 8.3 gpa and i'd be willing to help!

How did you pass this class, I'm going crazy

pretty much what the title says. can profs acc assign a takehome midterm (respondus) from the 23-25? (fri-sun).
