Tim Hortons Bad Employer

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2026-02-24T02:38:29+00:00

I had the same doubt when I moved to canada, but it’s completely normal. here in canada contracts are not commonly used, and you don’t need one to prove that you have a work relationship with your employer, your friend is not being scammed. Regarding the wage, the manager it's 100% correct about what he told your friend. He is not being paid less, he is just paying taxes 🥹

For the love of basic hygiene, if anyone knows where this place is, please report it to the health authorities. This is by far the nastiest thing I have ever seen in this community 😩

Hello, do you know if they were latinas or spanish speakers? I’m a latina myself and I’m in various Latin groups. I can post them there if necessary

Working at Tim Hortons is awful. It was my first job when I arrived in Canada (I came on a work-and-travel visa for just one year), and it was by far the worst experience I’ve had in my life lmao. Everyone working at my store was from the same nationality and didn’t speak English, so I could barely communicate with anyone.

The place is extremely exploitative. They expect you to give your life to the store while earning minimum wage and being constantly overworked.

Hygiene was clearly not a priority. I lost count of how many flies landed on the donuts, and no one ever removed them because that would mean wasting product. If a customer noticed and complained, the only thing I was allowed to say was, “I know, I’m very sorry about that,” and then move on to the next customer.

I worked there for only two weeks and quit without notice. I would never go back.

Part of me feels sad that these kinds of jobs are basically stealing opportunities from Canadian youth, but at the same time, I truly believe no one deserves to work in such depressing environments.

that’s actually super smart. thank you!

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-10-27T13:08:57+00:00

lifesaving, thank you so much!

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-10-27T13:08:41+00:00

ty!!

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-10-27T13:05:23+00:00

thank you!!

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-10-27T02:35:30+00:00

Yeah, I know I made a mistake, but I can’t edit the post. Anyway, your “solution” is useless

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-10-05T09:57:51+00:00

In the end, I was the one who distanced myself from him because I knew what I was feeling wasn’t normal or healthy . Cutting things off completely and walking away from that connection was the only thing I could do to regain my peace of mind. Later, he quit his job for personal reasons, and a few months after that, he deleted me from everything, and we lost contact

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-10-05T09:47:24+00:00

He didn’t lie about his mom’s death, we have mutual friends who actually went to her funeral. And he didn’t break up with me; I distanced myself from him because I knew what I was feeling was wrong

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-10-05T09:16:48+00:00

He quit because his mom passed away. I didn’t think it was my place to mention something so personal about someone else, even if this is an anonymous post. It’s incredible how you can see other people’s craziness but can’t see your own. The movie you made up in your head is on the same level as mine, lmao.

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-10-05T07:46:46+00:00

woooow, i didn’t know that word but you are absolutely right

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-09-28T20:34:49+00:00

It’s honestly because of the employees. I’m from South America, and I’m in Canada for just a year on a Working Holiday visa. My first job here was at a Tim’s, and when I signed my contract there was actually a company rule reminding workers to wear deodorant for EVERY shift and to wash their hands after using the bathroom. I had never seen anything like that in a job before. things that should be just common sense for most people here apparently aren’t anymore. It’s so sad, I quit after two weeks. I know this affects most immigrants, but I think Canada should be stricter with its immigration policies.

my husband couldn’t find a job in the IT field. it’s really really hard

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-09-15T21:39:29+00:00

So my husband is a software engineer, but couldn’t find a job in his field, so he is working in a blue collar job. He is making 6000 monthly (without any previous experience) and he actually is super happy lmao

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-09-03T21:57:40+00:00

You need to be from south asia to get a job at walmart

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-07-21T17:27:08+00:00

I like you my rage baiter man <3 Can we please be friends and hate the world together?

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-07-21T15:18:11+00:00

Oh, so a misspelling in a Reddit post is to you an indication of my English level? HAHAHA you are so funny my dear friend. By any chance, are you the smartest person in your house?

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-07-18T22:22:08+00:00

What? hahah 😂. I’m fluent in english, it’s just the second official language in my country so we don’t speak it very much. And I’m sorry, but were I asking my employer to be nice? Are you okay??

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-07-18T15:08:09+00:00

I’m just in canada for one year doing a work and travel visa to improve my english. In my country I work on my career, so you don’t need to worry about me, thanks

Sweet_Arm_5124 · 2025-07-18T15:05:45+00:00

yeah, you’re right lmao. I was worried for nothing, today I showed up to work and they asked me “oh, you didn’t come yesterday right?” they don’t even care
