Nor are the homeless a new development. I don't deny more could be done particularly in the extreme cold. It seems some of them refuse help. I saw on the news the other day one of the mobile volunteer outreach vans was cruising the streets of downtown Toronto. They found 14 homeless on the streets and of the 14 I believe only 3 accepted a ride to a shelter to get out of the cold. Apparently there was still unused capacity at the shelters. The outreach volunteers report that the shelters have some common sense rules such as no alcohol allowed. Some of these people would rather be out in the cold rather than abide by the rules.

Slashed 12 hours out of schedule for Thursday through Sunday. Will slash further next week. My Labour cost on January 1st was 48 percent of sales with stat pay applied. Next year will be closed for most stats. Will open for stats during Summer months. I hope the seniors can still afford to dine out or there may be 18 people looking for work. I am only open to make money. I will close the first month that there is a loss. Don't give us any imaginary baloney Pt3189... according to Fail situations like yours don't exist. Why don't you just absorb the increased cost out of your massive profits. After all according to Fail the increase won't impact your business at all. You must be wealthy with18 employees. No biggy for you to take home less for yourself. Fail says so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I provide fact from the experts including quotes and links all the time. You rarely if ever do since you can't. It all comes from your deluded mind. Show me dumb as a stump where I ever even came close to suggesting they all close up. I know you can't. I do acknowledge that just like the experts which you aren't, said SOME will be forced to close up. You apparently glossed over things like 12 hours less labour Thursday through Sunday so the employees will see fewer hours AS WELL AS increased prices. Another busy day warming your government chair getting paid for doing nothing I see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the effort spent in dealing w/ the bureaucracy could be described as 'non-value added work'. You should see the personal crap the province wants to know about volunteer members on a cemetery board. The 6 of us were going to resign en masse. Instead we just filled in our contact info & returned the forms. Havent heard from them since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have heard about nursing shortages? why is that dummy Almost every employee I know does more now than before - go back to your basement You're right Fail I was an employee. I was however responsible for a $50M facility not including the customer owned systems. Add their systems in and it would have been in the neighbourhood of $100M of assets. As part of that responsibility I was also responsible for establishing the annual capital and operating expense budgets, sticking to them or coming in under budget and profit and loss. When the final monthly revenue and expense numbers were tallied I had monthly financial review with my management and our Finance Dept Director. Any exceptions to plan were closely reviewed. Your stupidity continues to show no end of how far it can go Fail... think about what you said. Just an employee. You do realize that the Governor of the Bank of Canada is JUST AN EMPLOYEE. As is the Chief Financial Officer of every company, all of the accountants in their finance department. Do you ever get tired of proving how stupid you are. Do you ever do any actual work... amazing you don't feel guilty about being paid to warm a seat. You're an employee Fail... nobody would ever call you a worker though Edited January 4, 2018 by 02sled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revrnd Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 (edited) Seabiscuit speaks: http://business.financialpost.com/news/retail-marketing/ontario-premier-accuses-tim-hortons-founders-children-of-bullying-employees Quote The premier of Ontario accused the children of Tim Hortons’ billionaire co-founders Thursday of bullying their employees by reducing their benefits in response to the province’s increased minimum wage. The report on TV also mentioned this: Quote While the changes announced in the letter are not a violation of Ontario’s Employment Standards Act, Wynne said she wants Joyce Jr. to reverse his decision. “I hope that he understands this is really not a decent thing to be doing in a place as wealthy as Ontario,” Wynne said. “I hope he recognizes that his employees need to be treated decently.” Maybe she should address all employers demands of concessions @ contract talks as well. "Take this contract or we're moving operations to South Carolina or Mexico." Just shows you how out of touch she is w/ reality in the province.

Maybe she should have paid attention to the employers and not put them in the position she has... raise the minimum wage gradually and incrementally. Maybe she should have listened to people when they said don't sell Hydro. Maybe she should care more about the economics and debt rather than spending our money to try and BUY enough votes to keep her job. Maybe she should stop lying to people. How do you know she is lying.... her lips are moving. Maybe she should stop using bizarre accounting to show debt as an asset. The list is lengthy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pt3189 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 In the matter of buying votes, me thinks she acted to hastily on the raise to minimum wage earners. Many of these people are just looking for the next bingo game or trip to casino to spend their money. Maybe one of them makes a trip to the reserve for a few “bags of smokes” . They will have forgotten about this kind deed from Seabiscuit and will still be struggling because of their mismanagement . This should have been done within a few weeks of election and she may have gotten a more substantial bump from the electorate. On another note , I spend a lot of time with these people and I would doubt that more than 10 percent even vote. Sad but true. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pt3189 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I won’t even try to explain business to Fail. I have opened and sold 5 restaurants in 20 years. Employed hundreds of people from all walks of life , yet Fail is all knowing and I am nothing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
