Boy do i have the store for you.

Army and Navy department stores still exist in calgary, and resemble a 90s run down zellers store, right down to the smell of the disgusting cafeteria, even though there is no cafeteria in them.



Is this picture from 2019 or 1993? who knows!

there’s one in downtown Vancouver too and it rules. really good prices on lovely camping gear

When people hum and haw about the loss of brick&mortar department stores, this encapsulates all the reasons why it's happening.

Just a loving sea of clothes cut from the simplest blanks imaginable, drab colors and no screenprint or embroidery to be seen. Bathed in fluorescent tube light, beige walls and the laziest labels an intern could be barely arsed to produce in mspaint.

Society will be infinitely better off with these places closed/lit on fire.

"Our society shouldn't have to suffer the existence of these discount clothing shops because their products and presentation just aren't nice enough for me tastes." is the sort of hot take that still upsets me but no longer surprises me in these threads.

that's the thing, those terminal interfaces are actually pretty streamlined and it takes a lot of thought and consideration to build a GUI equivalent without just making GBS threads check boxes and form fields all over the place, and absolutely no enterprise software ever does this

Those ugly terminal interfaces have a steeper learning curve but are very efficient once you've gotten the hang of them and remember which key codes do the few things that you need to do 200 times a day, out of a few hundred available functions.

If someone's full-time job is working with this software, that's what you want, even if they have to bumble around for a few weeks as they get used to it.

Waitzer told his money story at a Toronto chapter meeting of Resource Movement, a support group where rich millennials encourage each other to give away portions of their inherited wealth. The group was founded in 2015 as an offshoot of an older U.S. body called Resource Generation whose mandate is to fund grassroots social justice movements. Resource Movement has about 125 members spread across chapters in Montreal, Vancouver, Toronto and Ottawa. They are the children of bankers, tech moguls and mining company executives. Collectively, the group is made up of Canada’s richest—among the top 20 per cent. Most new members hear about the group through word of mouth.
