Ready to get engaged at almost 30 years old, but my family isn't. Now what?
My family and I have never been on good terms. I'm nearly 30 years old and living at home. I come from a very strict family who's mentality is old fashioned. I come from an Arab country, but I'm not Arabic, I'm also Catholic. I have been dating my boyfriend for 4 years+ and my family has never met him. Again, speaking of dating or having a relationship is taboo in my household. It was never made yo be an open topic to speak freely about. Hence why they barely know anything about their own grown up daughter. Until I hit 23-24, I was never allowed to go out with friends or even shopping. I had to work and make my own cash to pay for school and a car, which my parents refused to help me out with both because that meant liberation and freedom. After 24, I retaliated and got my own way. To date, I come home at night and my father will be waiting up "watching TV". Once I'm home, her gets to bed. Yes, I'm nearly 30 and this is what goes in my household.I arranged with my uncle to meet me and my boyfriend at a local coffee shop since I felt he's more open minded than my own parents and his wife is European. Anyways, all three of us met and everything seemed to have gone well. But the next day, my uncle called me and started yelling at the top of his lungs at how I shouldn't be with "this stupid guy" and how I will bring shame to my family etc. He used me for My boyfriend a diff background but is Christian. We are both very educated, and have great occupations.What do I do from here?
3 AnswersTennis7 years agoHow can I apply to Canadian government jobs?
I am looking for a career change and was very interested in working for Canada Revenue Agency, Immigration Canada, and any other government related job opportunities. I have attempted looking at their job postings on canada.gc.ca website but that does not appear as relevant since it displays external job opportunities, rather than internal.
Any ideas please?

2 AnswersOther - Taxes8 years agoMy hp pavilion 2000 is completely fried/dead...how can I retrieve my files from hard drive?
Laptop is literally dead. Had several tech people look at it. I was told it can't really be fixed. Now I went to Tiger Direct electronic store tech team and the guy said to buy an external hard drive so he can remove my hp hard drive into it. I'm not tech savvy, sorry if I don't make sense. So he removed my hp hard drive and put it into th external hard drive. I went home and plugged it into anothet laptpp but the external hard drive wouldn't come up or open any files from hp hard drive. I went back to Tiger Direct and spoke to the same idiot about the problem. His answer? "Your hp hard drive is fried and you'll need a techinician to open up all mini parts of it and pay big bucks for that". He made me buy an external drive first visit there then tells me my hp hard drive files are fried entirely. Very irritating!!!
I have very important documents I need on there. Any ppssible way to retrieve them???
Please and thank you.
