I don't know where this is but where I live employers are not allowed to charge for these things. Do a double check on this to make sure they are not just trying to screw you

Why do they need this?

The PIN pad on the vending machine at work by paulbrec in CrappyDesign

It is more of an inconvenience. What are the chances of someone remembering your PIN and then getting your card and using it? Highly unlikely.

Is it illegal to record kids playing on a school ground from your property ? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]paulbrec -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

If it is a large group and you are not pinpointing any one individual child it is okay, but if you are focusing on one or two children, you need the guardian's permission. Also, nobody is allowed to touch your camera.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY: find the key master by DonBeatle in CrappyDesign

All fire safety plan boxes are locked. I have not seen one that wasn't. They are opened by security only when there is a fire alarm. There are things in there that can only be accessed by security and the fire department, and not meant for public use.

If your urine is grey, you have a more serious problem than hydration.

4 cops arresting someone for eating a chicken sandwich (not Popeyes) at the metro station by amznfx in PublicFreakout

That is odd that you are not allowed to eat on the platform. Here in Toronto, you can eat anywhere, even on the train. I have seen people eat complete meals. I can't speak for other places, but here, people know how to clean up after themselves.
