Was the deal not good enough?

Management should've done what my company did: use a veiled threat to cut jobs.
That'll get them to take a pay cut and increase their hours.

Edit: yeah, I'm still bitter at the other members for taking it.
 
It's fucking bright, sunny and balmy and the electricity's been out for one hour in Richmond Hill smh.

Edit: yaaaaaay! Electricity came on as soon as I hit post LOL the power of complaining 👍👍

Apparently it's a deep seeded conflict between those north of Bloor and those south of Bloor.

The name and pronunciation stems from the Ojibway word “espadinong,” which means hill, and was adopted by Baldwin for his home and Spadina Rd., the street in front of it, which he laid out nearly 20 years later.

Nobody is certain of how it became Spa-dinah, but the most likely explanation is a linguistic divide between well-heeled residents north of Bloor St. and the immigrant population south of Bloor.

Toronto Music History 101:

MAESTRO FRESH WES
krApCvp.gif


Back in 1989 (when Drake was only 3 years old), a Toronto rapper named Maestro Fresh Wes became the first Canadian rapper to have a top 40 hip-hop song.

Please sit back with a glass of scotch and enjoy a true classic, LET YOUR BACKBONE SLIDE:

fun fact: I went to the same high school as Maestro Fresh Wes (though he had graduated before I went there)

Edit: glad you're out of the hospital ahdurian!
 
The TTC is setting weekly records for incompetence the past two months. Over-waged union employees are pulling too high a percentage of revenue away from maintenance, and it's starting to kill the service badly.

I cannot fathom what it's going to be like in 2-3 years when so many of these new condos are finished (especially that behemoth at Yonge/Bloor). So thankful I'll have migrated over to the Go by then.
 
Took me 30 minutes just to get out of Bloor station this morning. Why does this stuff always happen during rush hour?
 
To be fair, this one wasn't really the TTC's fault. You probably wouldn't want to be in a flaming metal coffin.

If it's groundwater, it's an infrastructure problem. We need better maintenance, and we need it done yesterday instead of next weekend. I'm still baffled by the lack of overnight workers in this city. Surely it's less expensive to pay overtime to work when there's no service anyway than to forfeit fares.
 
What the damn hell is that shit?

I was supposed to go downtown today, decided against it in the end. Seems like a good decision.

I think it's actually some kind of hydriocarbon. Looks very oily. They suspect it's kerosene leaking from a nearby hotel storage tank through the ground.
 
Lord beer us strength this summer when the Pan Am Games come.

My only hope is when the TTC has a gigantic fuck up during the games and it's brought to national attention it might shame and embarrass everyone into finally doing something about this.

$30 airport rides didn't shame them.
 
30$ airport rides are for tourist suckers or businessmen who have all their expenses paid anyway. No Torontonian coming back to town would ever get suckered into paying for that shit. It'll probably get shut down two years after PanAm games.

I have a feeling we'll be catered to more sport events after PanAm. I'm pretty sure an Olympics is the long term goal >_<

So proud to take the Better Way this morning.

A cab.

We need a cab with the slogan "better than the better way"

Last week everyday there was a delay going to or coming from Scarberia Town Centre when I went to work. Every. Goddamn. Day. Only day I didn't have a problem? When I worked from home one Friday.

Terrible infrastructure, terrible Union, terrible service, terrible future.
 
Toronto won't even be able to handle the bootleg Olympics, no way we ever get the real one

edit: Said the same thing in a different way D:
