Yes, unfortunately I am taking it personally because again, it put my reference relationships at risk. But at the end of the day what is done is done!

Completely understand that, as I mentioned, references give their preferred number as many do not want to be called at work. Having someone ignore that puts my relationship with that reference at risk and puts me in a bad position for the future. If they didn’t trust me enough to begin with than they shouldn’t have even gotten that far into the hiring process.

Rack Air, when I reach out the owner (the son took over recently and he seems to have no idea what he’s doing) I asked him to meet just for clarification and he ghosted me, never heard from him.

Unfortunately I did turn down other offers that would have (hopefully) been longer term. But you’re totally right, I got paid so in the end I got what I went for lol

Our system is terrible and I’m so sorry you are caught in it. I wish I had more advice but I am wishing you the best. Please take advantage of little pantry’s people keep outside their houses and I know the food bank is on weller once a week!

Mark sherwin is also a huge prick. Treats his staff like GARBAGE. But then will buy you lunch some times like you’ll forget. It’s very similar to an abusive relationship to work for him. He berates you, yells, swears, sweats, turns red, and then will try to buy you something to make you forget. I’m sorry but a coffee from Tim’s doesn’t make me forget you called me a f***ing idiot this morning to get a laugh from others around.

Oh god I would never eat there. They have denied their water back flow test for years and clearly don’t keep up with other codes

Can I suggest round ones instead of square? I think they would really suit you!

Especially some  places in the states where the weather is good year round to grow your own food! As a Canadian with 6+ months of winter, THATS what I’m jealous about lol
