It's to maintain service metrics during the busiest hours. The minimum wage rising thing is just to depress wages and spread fear.

Skippy Granola posted:I thought they were able to eliminate a couple of front-facing cashier positions per store? If not, I'll need to re-evaluate business' response to the minimum wage hike. The kiosks actually lead to one or two more positions being added per store. They're called Guest Experience Leaders, they take care of the dining room and help with/get people to use the kiosks.

In any of the restaurants I worked in if labor totalled up to 25 percent for the day, people started getting sent home early. Also, McDonald's is the 'famous' exploiter of TFW labor and for reference typically pay about 10-15 percent of their sales in royalties to McD's corparate. (in comparison, Subway is usually 8-10 i think and Domino's and Pizza Hut are 4-5) It was also, I'm pretty sure, McD's franchisee's that were also renting living space to their TFW's at pretty gross rates, so even if they kept their labor costs to industry standard they were getting a pretty slick deal.

I use the kiosks because for whatever reason the one I sometimes hit up for an egg mcmuffin, always like 2/3rds of the people are still queuing up to order at the counter and I'm just like beep beep boop and get my poo poo and out the door before some of them have even paid. I'm an enemy of the revolution. I can accept this to get my food 5 minutes faster than grandpa who is wary of the robot and wants to pay with carefully counted coins.

James Baud posted:So the first BC leaders debate was this morning, I learned from the Greens' mailing list and all I really know about it is that some people (Liberal supporters, online) are pushing really hard on a "Horgan = misogynist" line since he more or less verbatim told her to "do your little thing, I'll watch you, I know you like that". Horgan actually did great, other than getting heated about being slighted on speaking time which is fair, the moderation was awful. Christy was brutally terrible ugh gently caress her so much and Weaver wasn't anything special imo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SYavgIdUDY e: aaahaahahaha go to 32:02 CLAM DOWN fucked around with this message at 01:24 on Apr 21, 2017 |

Lurker posting  I got my dream job and I'm moving from Vancouver to Toronto. What are any adroit and sarcastic takes about life there any goons have to offer? My best friend and a brother live there so I have some vague notions about awful Toronto politics, lovely bike lanes, too many hipster coffee shops etc, what else. I know far more than I care to about Leafs fans, so you can skip that part.

Toronto: drive aggressively but politely. It's a bit unnerving coming from Out West to drive in Toronto. Drivers like to show their intentions by shoving the front end of the car out into traffic. Try that in Calgary, you'll lose your bumper. In T.O., traffic slows a tiny bit and gives you 5 to 10 milliseconds to prove you're paying attention. On the 401, 'undertaking' - getting passed on the right - is gonna happen, pretty much continuously. B-train transports - two long trailers behind a transcontinental prime mover - will weave between the tourists at 140km/h, and hardly anyone bats an eye. You can get away with cutting somebody off in the far right lane, but if you slow down in the far left you will get a Mercedes kissing your rear bumper (or an Audi nudging you from the boulevard shoulder). If you can show your commitment to the art, you can start parallel parking and following traffic will give you just enough room. For about 10 seconds, so get on it. The biggest driving difference between Vancouver and Toronto is the douchebags in Vancouver are easy to spot in their ridiculous cars. In Toronto, they could be driving anything.

Hey guys, my family made national news! Simon Nakonechny is live in Rigaud as one family sandbags to save their home. My sister being the only presentable member of my family is the one representing our ~heroic struggle~.  I got a selfie with Simon.  That house was recently constructed there, hopefully they were told this was a floodzone.  Where a bunch of adventurers failed, climate change succeeded in bringing down the mighty gazeebo. The take away I have is that climate change is apparently real, and maybe I should write a letter to my MP.

Also our basement is flooded and I just opened the backwater valve cover which was submerged by like a foot of water to drain the basement. Good thing we had it installed, the pit in which the backwater valve is found is like a foot below the rest of the basement so it acts as a ghetto sump. But Dundas is literally under water.
