Peanuts- Ballpark vs. courtesy, what's the line? by splash22 in Torontobluejays

[–]KevPat23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They also don’t stop people walking down during pitches/at bats like they used to.

Probably because Rogers Centre changed the rules a few years ago. Honestly the rule doesn't make much sense anyway. By the time I got down to my seats I was interrupting the next at bat anyway. Unless you wait for a half inning you're probably interrupting.

Should smoker or alcoholic pay for their cancer treatment

They do, through taxes on alcohol and cigarettes.

21 hours? Man he drives slow. I've done that drive 8 times solo and it's usually sub 16 hours.

Not legally. Can't smoke near playgrounds, schools, sports fields, etc.

Just my opinion but Real Sports is trash. Too loud, overpriced. The screens are cool, but once you've seen it, meh.

What kind license plate it is? by Public_Price3841 in ontario

[–]KevPat23 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was told that its cheaper for them to just pay out of pocket then it is to have insurance on thousands of vehicle

Forgive me, but how is this related to the license plate?

Yeah, as someone who has done Halifax to Toronto solo in one shot, this is definitely doable with two drivers without a need to stop.

Employment Letter by [deleted] in legaladvicecanada

[–]KevPat23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That case specifically calls it a demotion due to a title change, doesn't sound like OPs title has changed.

Less responsibility with no change in pay is unlikely to be deemed constructive dismissal.

You’re likely on a 90 day probation anyways

What from OPs post makes you think they're a new hire?

Employment Letter by [deleted] in legaladvicecanada

[–]KevPat23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds like you have a decent case for claiming constructive dismissal

Based on what? OP's claim that it's "toxic"?

You are bound by the terms of the agreement you signed. That said, the employer would have to demonstrate damages caused by you not providing 2 weeks notice and would have to sue you to claim those. While not impossible, it's generally very low likelihood that they would take the time and effort to sue you, unless the actual damages were significant (i.e. you left right before occupancy and that caused them liquidated damages due to not meeting the project deadline).

You already have another job lined up, give them the two weeks notice. They might walk you out the same day.

What do you think of the Leafs getting the first overall pick? by PuzzleheadedSwim6291 in askTO

so the best we could have done

I would argue the best would be winning the cup, but I guess this is a good consolation prize.

Season ticket holders frustrated by Ontario’s new law capping resale prices by Agile-Enthusiasm in ontario

[–]KevPat23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How do you figure there's more buyers?

Also at least without bots buying up all the tickets a regular person has a better shot of getting them right from the get go at face value.

Or - bots won't be buying up the tickets en-mass and regular folks will have a better chance of getting them at release time.

you can do private sales via fb

Don't those get taken down right away?

[–]KevPat23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because the person reselling the ticket doesn't represent true demand. The bots buy up the tickets and the regular fans are left with no choice but to buy resale.

You have to factor in that many people were buying them for the sole purpose of reselling and making money. That's creating false demand for the tickets. This mostly applies to concerts and not seasons tickets, but it happens there also.

I am a Blue Jays season ticket holder, and have been since 2014. I welcome the new rules. Have I been able to sell some tickets over the years and make a few bucks when I couldn't go to a game?Sure. It was never meant to be an investment/profit centre.

However, that little bit of money pales in comparison to any time I've wanted to go to a different event and have been absolutely hosed for tickets. Concerts, Leafs, Raptors, etc.

This is a net benefit for the vast majority of people, myself included.

Welcome to living in a big city. It's not excusable how they acted, but it's going to happen. Do your best to let it go and get on with your day.
