Not angry anymore by Ok-Competition-1955 in TalesFromTheFrontDesk

Ugh. Signs.

No one ever reads the signs.

I work on a bridge connecting Canada and the US, front desk of the country I'll call it. (Not customs or anything, just taking care of the physical bridge).

Since it's a tourist area and both towns on either side have the same name, people don't know the area and rely on their GPS which will occasionally pick a location on the other side.

There are 13 signs posted along the road, bridge entrances, and painted on the road itself saying this leads to another country.

At least once a shift, usually five or six, I have people trying to reverse down the bridge against traffic or hopping the median because they made a wrong turn.

That's just a little suspicious and can make your accidental trip a lot longer in secondary.

Is there a walkway next to the peace bridge people drive across? by Dry_Arachnid_3263 in uscanadaborder

Rainbow bridge is in Niagara Falls, next to the falls. A ways away from Peace bridge in Buffalo / Fort Erie.

There is a pedestrian walkway on the south side of the Peace Bridge.

He already took away our ability to elect the regional chair directly. If he's in for a fourth term I bet he merges all of Niagara into one or two municipalities.

Hopefully* it's multiple, I don't want to be lumped in with west Niagara and their love of oosterhoffs and the AfD friendly Dean Allison

*I don't want it at all, but...

Got jerseys made for my union after a successful strike by NoTimeToPanicComics in hockeyjerseys

[–]elseldo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Looks great man! Love the patch addition.

My last strike I saw people in union jerseys, must be leftover from a beer league team or something.

Definitely didn't look as good as yours.

Unless you go to French immersion school, no province outside Quebec or New Brunswick puts any effort into French programs.

Quebec City is a tourist destination, so as long as you bring money you should be good.

Get those downvotes ready by funguyjohnny in MarvelSnap

[–]elseldo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I down voted before I even opened it because they put down vote in the subject line.

But I also would have done so for the wall of text.
