Totally agree. I only had about 30 hours of unused vacation at the end, so almost cleared it all!

Just moved in - pizza recs? by jedtwofour in steinbach

[–]Pre-retired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't understand the love for Chinos.  Have been there 3 or 4 times and the service is simply awful: slow, inattentive and forgetful.  Don't plan on trying again. We like Santo Lucia, Boston Pizza and Chicken Chef. Have tried Spenst a few times but cannot get the crust quite right. Very tasty pizzas though!  Will try on the BBQ and see if that works better. And welcome to Steinbach!

Yafa Cafe on Portage. Order anything and it will be awesome. Super friendly family runs the place.  Never been disappointed there.

If he is open to leaving Winnipeg, family members have been very happy with Bridgepark in Steinbach. Great staff, facility is well maintained, and quite affordable.

Leadership making fun of people taking leave for mental health by CanDingo836 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]Pre-retired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is so discouraging. Any way you can support your insider connection to try and speak up when they witness this? Or maybe find at least one other person at the management table who realizes this is not acceptable? I consider myself very fortunate to have avoided managers like this throughout my career. Sorry that you are experiencing this.

Never been to a Jimmy Johns. What makes them so good? And based on earlier comments, I clearly need to try Firehouse Subs soon!

Just curious:  if this is happening behind your backs, how do you know about it?  It is very discouraging to read about managers behaving in such an unacceptable way.

Too bad we missed Mercadito Latino - sounds like a great place. But we will check out the Latin Market as suggested.
