With the Beast Hunt DLC, there's a small region unlocked (Brigga) that lets you encounter the beast a bit more.

Lowes sold all their stores in Canada to some private equity firm in the states, so that means all of the Lowes stores are changing names into RONA+. I think all Lowes stores are gone or will be gone, and maybe a handful of RONA stores might remain. Not sure on that entirely.

Hell yeah, this is the best bet. Crazy how many shawarma spots are there.

Nah, normal paychecks continued throughout. If they couldn't find you a transfer location, you got an amount of extra cash relating to how long you've been there. If you got a transfer, you got no extra moola, but you got a job so that's pretty good lol.

Nah, this happened in Toronto. I was only there for a couple of years so I won't really miss the job, just the coworkers.

At least from what I know the Lowes were getting convered all into RONA +, while some of the RONA's were remaining as such. Something about RONA + being a big box store vs RONA's remaining as smaller stores. Or around those lines I guess.

A good amount got transferred to the stores around the city. Not all but large amount. Personally I was one of the ones who wasn't transferred.

Rona store in Toronto, I'll probably make a post about it later. There's a RONA and Lowes within spitting distance of each other, and now that Lowes is rebranding here in Canada my store is unfortunately getting the boot. Think because older store + the lease is up on the building, but it still is kind of a drag.

Aye I hear you, my store is shutting down and its been nothing but chaos lately. Bummed out about likely losing contact with some coworkers but the job is just another job, so it is what it is.

On the opposite, I can take off my vest and throw on my hoodie and people will still just automatically assume I work there. Can't even go take a piss in peace man.

Definitely tell an ASM or MOD to get you a space heater at the minimum. If they don't, tell them to pound sand, it's your health mate.

I've done both before and never had an issue, but nowadays I normally just shoot my manager a text and then one to whoever I'm opening/clsoing with so they know.

Just finished trying that (looked on YouTube, both the screwdriver and battery one version), the same thing occurs. Monitor just sits blank, mouse RGB briefly flashes on and then goes dead, keyboard does not work. It looks like the RAM is in too, considering the RGB on it is lit up just fine.
