The whole thing is some weird astroturfing. The group and it's website sprang into existence 3 weeks ago and no one would have heard of them or their protest if stupid blogto had not run an article about them.

I said it's weird astroturfing but I'm pretty positive its just the same anti-islam bigots who wear yellow vests in Toronto. So probably not that weird, just well funded racists

gently caress this astroturfed bullshit. I had some loving chuds threaten me at work for making people line up and hear rules outside the store. I'm not loving getting killed by some pudding brained chud for like $15 an hour. gently caress i hate working at a grocery store right now. Took the rest of the day off, might just be done. It wasn't worth risking my health with Covid, but that was abstract, some loving chuds just telling it to your face is very direct.

Not only is this hosed on its own, it’s hosed that other people around them are so bad pathetic as to not tell them to shut the gently caress up. These dipshits are empowered because everyone else are feckless cowards. I’m sorry this happened to you, I worked in a grocery store for a few years too bad it sucked without a pandemic so I can only imagine with one.

Not sure there will be a next time. Doing the math on how low I can cut my expenses, my girlfriend has CERB, might just not work until this is over. People have been getting more and more agitated and wound up as the month has gone on. If I can afford to sit this one out I'm going to. I'm not getting seriously injured or killed for like $15 an hour at a sobeys.

If there’s one thing that seeing random violent incidents or medical emergencies occur on the street has taught me is that most bystanders are exactly that, bystanders. They are extremely happy to wait until someone jumps in, to relieve them of the burden of doing so.

One time at university, I found some girl unconscious on the floor in front of the bathroom entrance. I didn’t have a cell back then and was asking people walking by to call an ambulance. Three people responded they were late for class and walked by. One girl even stepped over the girl to get to the washroom without helping...

I’m sorry that your experience at work has been so terrible. In my journeys out, I’ve been finding that people have been mostly good with only a few idiots who seem totally unaware that something is going on, or old people who think that being told to back up is rude. I hate that with the idiotic protests down south, our Rona denier chuds are emboldened.

Why not just not show up and apply for cerb yourself? You would be takin home more cash wouldn't you?

That would count, why people don't understand how to get fired instead of quit always eludes me.

i did that once. Stopped showing up to work, dodged their calls, two weeks later got a note in the mail saying my employment had been terminated. I didn't do it to get EI, but I probably could've.

yeah

it's hard to really conclusively show a lot of misconduct and it's a lot of hassle for employers to establish it when the alternative is simply not and labelling the firing a layoff

"stopped showing up for two weeks" is not hard to establish, though

no its not. you just enforce rules selectively and write up the employee for every real and imagined infraction possible. make them sign the write up or they are fired, refuse and they are fired for insubordination. once you have three or four write-ups you just fire them anyway.

doesn't take more than a few days

I’m surprised Bancroft and Collingwood aren’t in open rebellion.

Once you hit a critical mass of cottagers and hockey dads on motorcycles it’s like a different province. I’d say north of Newmarket, maybe north of Barrie.

Anyone hear any news about that 2500 a month top up for essential workers? The site just says more details will follow.

Also I dont know if every bank has it, but the CIBC app has an option under customer services where you give them the info, check an authorization box, and they'll set up CRA direct deposit for you :v: sure beats the gently caress out of that paper mail password thing what the gently caress
