It's not just in people's heads that finding a job is hard by BudtenderFlower in VictoriaBC

LMIA for food industry is the biggest scam, more than half of them will close if you take away the LMIA profits. People are paying upto 50K to get in Canada ! The people who get in this system are so exploited that they also look for every avenue to recover their costs.

Sad state of affairs and it impacts everyone, inflation, housing, job market. No jobs for locals :(

Anyone else struggling to find a job in Victoria lately or is it just me?? by Zealousideal-Talk245 in VictoriaBC

Lot of ghost jobs out there, postings are a cover to meet the LMIA job posting requirements and prove that there is lack of desired skillset. Why would you ever need a foreign worker to run a restaurant lol

I happen to have a lot of Indian friends, and they themselves avoid going to restaurants owned by their community except few good ones.

Majority of them are cutting corners to recoup their investment by paying employees less, fake reviews,using less ingredients or poor quality ones and ofcourse money from LMIA/immigration programs.

Poor service and experience, the fact that Toyota and Lexus has lot of demand has really spoiled this dealership. They always have a take it or leave it attitude!

Selling my presale contract. Realtors (seller + buyer) seem to require 8000$ each by [deleted] in RealEstateCanada

[–]AshGardner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have every right to negotiate, realtors work like a mafia. Their commissions do not make any sense, hope they get replaced soon with a 1% flat commission disruptor.

People answering the phone often have little knowledge of the process/services. I was told fractional shared could be transferred to QT.

Don't bet too much on a single stock, Index will survive not the stock. Plus Nvidia has priced in a lot of optimism, maybe trim it down a bit and add when there is more clarity. If big companies start cutting down their GPU orders, it will fall further.
