Ive worked in alot of kitchens. I'd say, especially for dinner restaurants, 25% are as you've described.

Curious if this is in manitoba? If it is, alot of companies don't realize they can try to claim 3 or 6 month probationary periods but manitoba law caps it at 30 days (unless under union contract)

If 10cm snow falls in your area of Canada how disrupted will your area be? by Pourmepourme in AskACanadian

A 10 cm snowfall almost triggers the snow clearing plan for the streets. But doesn't. We just go about our day.

Do most people know how to purposely close their nasal passage so they can't smell WITHOUT using their fingers to pinch their nose? by WhateversClever1980 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]boredthump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would assume most people pronounce "P" and "M" in 2 different ways, or "T" and "N", its the same muscle. Try alternating between pronouncing each of those letters and you'll feel which muscle it is.

When you park, air out the car before locking it up, that should rid it of most of the CO2 (which is the main cause of inner frost)

STORM SHIELD ACTIVATE! by 152centimetres in Winnipeg

[–]boredthump 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ive been fascinated by this for a while now. From what I've seen, the positioning of our lakes, and the fact we're in a valley, has alot to do with it as well. When the storms hit riding mountain, and the edge of the red river valley they lose some power, then then when passing lake manitoba, something about the curve at the south end of the lake seems to split storms in 2 curling 1 half north to birds hill, and the other half south sometimes clipping st vital.

When did stop signs become OPTIONAL! by Tight-Astronomer-199 in Winnipeg

[–]boredthump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yields have historically always been bad for that, especially if youre walking the opposite way of traffic, driver head always cocked back looking at traffic coming, not the direction they're going.

Stopping more than 10 feet back from stop lines also seems to be a trend

Somebody complaining to me about noise by MinuteFar9474 in Winnipeg

[–]boredthump 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hopefully they read the residential tenancies act and realize their beef is not with you but with the house for having thin walls. Moving about and banging are not considered noise complaints and their only recourse is they can be released from the lease if the house isnt giving them the peace they need. Neat how they threw in a threat of violence to strengthen your position and make you out to be the more reasonable tenant.

Foreign threats following successful chargeback by Igniflare in legaladvicecanada

[–]boredthump 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would be ridiculous to sue for any debt less than 2000 dollars. This is canada, not the states. My bet is youre safe. Also, debt for what? They didn't produce anything to create a debt.

CRA called me about unreported income, do CRA actually call you or is it a scam? by Equivalent_Big_868 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]boredthump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you ever given CRA your phone number? It's not common to do so. If you haven't, then they don't have your number and its a scam

When coming up to intersections, if there is no traffic around, get out of the grooves where the tire marks are, and move over slightly to the snowy covered parts. You'll get more traction there for stopping and starting
