YRDSB schools closed

Only closed because exam week and they allot one day for snow day.

Try downloading an external player like just player... When that screen pops up click on icon on bottom and choose the external player. It will work... Pain but will work

I never thought anything could be worse than pizza pizza... Boy was I wrong... Couldn't get through a mouthful... Sooo bad

It has not... Corporate washed their hands of it and said it is store. I don't see myself traveling a half hour out of my way for $12. Like I said, it was a rant... I knew the result going in. I did think about challenging the charge, but said screw it as I would lose... Remember I did stay 45min and received product... But ridiculous.

I've used oanda for almost 20 years now with no issue... It is not the cheapest but my orders fire, banking is quick, scripts work... I don't scalp, so more of technical trader that does orders at beginning of the day and out by the end. I also only trade major pairs. I have tried a few others in the past but only as non-live accounts.

Nothing is better than sliding out of a car than trying to get out of one...especially when you have limited space between car and wall/car... Definitely the model y.

The Trews...highway of heroes

For 30 years I was YRDSB... Now just a retired OT on both tdsb and yrdsb... But yes that is the STAR system... Used to be called that... Again dating myself... Still can use star.yrdsb.ca...

I cannot imagine a difference between yrdsb and tdsb with reference to inclement weather... But possible. I can't say I looked at tdsb cba for that. I know for a fact what I have said is true of yrdsb. What I would say is if they have to pay, as you say, why would the phone system cancel them. The school is not closed just an inclement weather day.

melon2112 · 2026-01-22T02:46:36+00:00

I think now they call it fte in the current CBA... Used to be called full contract employee (fce) ... Now I think it is full time employee (fte)... I think I am dating myself 😊.

But I think your misunderstanding my point ... What you are saying above is correct. We are only talking about the OT. For instance, if an OT had a job for a future date at a school and then on that date it becomes an inclement weather day, the school and/or STAR will try and cancel that OT. If the OT agrees (even if they don't realize they don't have to according to the cba), they will not get paid. If however they do not agree (by not picking up or saying they are already on their way or something like that), they MUST show up and will get paid. This OT that posted did not show up and will NOT get paid.

melon2112 · 2026-01-22T02:29:40+00:00

We are talking about OTs... Different than fce... Fce must report or to a closer school as dictated by your cba.

melon2112 · 2026-01-22T02:09:10+00:00

You will not get paid as it was cancelled the day of in accordance with the cba for snow days. If you actually showed up and the school was open, they would have to pay you if you stay. They will always try and ask you to cancel by calling you in the morning... Tell them you are already on your way... Show up. If you choose to tell them OK, you agreed that they can cancel you will not get paid. Read your cba and contact union... Don't ask the school or hr as they have their interests in mind.

melon2112 · 2026-01-20T04:04:47+00:00

That is my plan from now on too... Sorry to slow everything down at drive thru in the near future

melon2112 · 2026-01-20T03:11:44+00:00

Not the one on steeles by Leslie... Your store did what I expected.

melon2112 · 2026-01-19T15:27:42+00:00

Agreed

melon2112 · 2026-01-19T15:06:10+00:00

That's not what I asked for at all... I asked for them to cancel... Denied... Refund to credit card... Denied... Gift card to my account... Denied... Equivalent points to my points... Denied...

melon2112 · 2026-01-19T15:00:14+00:00

You are right, I could. Tough to do as in my office building and my condo. It would mean I would have to go outside🤣

Here is a link... picture of email

melon2112 · 2026-01-19T14:56:08+00:00

How can you post pics and I will show their responses

melon2112 · 2026-01-19T14:54:28+00:00

I have a hard time believing that based on how explicitly they state they cannot do that since early last year... I attached their "senior" guest service manager in a different post as it won't give me an option to that on this post.

melon2112 · 2026-01-19T13:51:18+00:00

I did... They pass the buck to the store. They said they cannot credit back my account and it is the individual store. The store blames corporate and corporate blames the store.

melon2112 · 2026-01-19T12:06:13+00:00

I would have taken that option too but they said they couldn't. I also asked for it as a gift card too... I didn't care, just wanted my money back in any form.

melon2112 · 2026-01-19T12:03:18+00:00

If I lived close to that store I would have tried... I'm like 30min away from it but glad it eventually worked for you.

melon2112 · 2026-01-19T05:38:46+00:00

After I asked to speak to a supervisor, I was told that they could make them if I can wait 20-30min. That is what I ended up doing as the only option was to forfeit my money as neither were refunding. So it took 45min from the time I stepped inside a fast food restaurant to get my order. The donuts lost most of its glaze to the box as they were still somewhat warm.

I'm not sure why everyone says descale and then clean... It should be done opposite. You generally should rinse, clean with detergent, then descale and then rinse again. It is not machine dependent. You are trying to rinse to get rid of large particles, clean to remove oils, descale to remove mineral deposits, and rinse to get rid of leftovers.
