Awesome Mcdonalds Employee

Tonight, February 1st I stopped in at the McDonald's downtown to use the rest room and the internet. My phone wasn't working without WiFi and I was having a horrible night. I was at the point of tears. One of the employees , a nice young lady (didn't catch her name) came over to me with a tea and said "I made this by accident, did you want it?"
Young lady. You have no idea how much I needed that tea to relax and calm down. You have been spotted! I hope your manager is reading this because you did more than was expected :)

Rude Person @ McDonalds (Roundhouse Center)

Well, let me start off first by saying that this is the first time posting on this site. But after this crazy encounter I experienced today, I definitely wanted to join in.

Around 6pm.. While I was watching the news on the TV, eating the food I purchased, a guy walks up to me and says, "Excuse me?" I reply with "Yes?".... And he continues with "Can I sit here?" ..... I was shocked that with about 98% of the other seats available in the whole restaurant, he decided to interrupt me and want to sit where I was... My overly sincere reply was "Umm sure, I was just about to leave anyways"... Obviously with a smirk on my face..

Does anyone else think this was rude??? Cause I sure do!

Guy at the Kenny vs Spenny show

Dear #2 at Kenny vs spenny Friday night. How was it? Paying for VIP tickets, and only getting to see half of the show. Did your beverage of choice make you have a good time? You were so pumped to see the show. You missed your friend #1 going up on stage. I think, you completely deserve what you got. Man, you're going to ruin it for everyone. It is a privlage that we can enjoy a new kind of lounge, and there's rules for a reason. If there's a rule that consists of no alcohol, you probably shouldn't drink a ton of vodka before the show, not to the point where you're puking in your hand and disrupting the whole crowd, and making a huge puke mess for the poor staff and security to have to clean up. You're the kind of people we don't want in that kind of environment. I hope you enjoyed half the show, and making a fool out of yourself. But next time, keep yourself at home, so you don't ruin this experience for everyone. On a good note, the show was hilarious and I will definitely be going back!

Appalled by Nursing Cuts & the Quality of Our Healthcare Diminishing

I am so appalled and disgusted by the nursing cuts that have occurred in our community. Registered nurses are such an integral part of our health care system. Their education, skill set and years of experience help provide for the best quality of care for all of us, including our loved ones. How is it okay and justifiable to allow nurses to be let go and therefore allowing it to negatively affect our quality of care. Why are such cuts not being made to executive staff? Perhaps if they took more of a pay cut in their salaries that would then help with keeping the nursing staff. As a resident of the community, when I have had to visit the hospital, I have been fortunate enough to have received excellent quality care from the nurses who had helped me. We as a community need to stand up for these nurses and advocate for them. Their role is so important to the type of care that we receive in our health system. I do not understand why more people in the community are not up in arms over theses losses. It is clear that the type of care that we will get in the future will be very different from the type of care that we have been receiving up to this point. In the end, it is us, the patients, that are going to suffer because the quality of care is going to dissipate. I heard on the radio that there is an online petition going around about this and it can be found at http:/ / www.morenurses.ca/ take-action/ sign-the-petition/ . As members of this community, we need to show our nurses that we value them, their work, their dedication and their compassion. We also need to advocate for our healthcare, the quality of care that we receive and the type of care that we expect to receive. We need to ask ourselves, why is their sufficient funds to invest in creating a new mega-hospital, but there is not sufficient funds to invest in keeping these nursing jobs? I will be contacting my MP & I challenge you to do the same.

Amazing Customer Service

On Saturday I stopped at Mr.Shiskabob on parent and Ottawa street. I had never been there before and all I wanted was two gyros to go. The lovely woman behind the counter said it's gonna be a little bit. I said that's fine. I had my 6yr old and 3yr old with me so I said go look at tge fish. The woman comes around the counter and brings out a game for them to play with. Well orders done said thank you very much. She and the cook had made some French fries for the girls and also gave them a treat when leaving. I just wanted to say thank you for your awesome customer service and making my girls very happy. I Will definitely come back .

Blocking Driveway Ticket

Do I deserve a $30 ticket for Blocking Driveway? Here Is a picture of where my car was parked on Turner Rd. Ron had an appt. at the Cancer Clinic. When we arrived, there were 8 cars waiting to get into the clinic parking lot. We drove around the front of Windsor Regional Hospital-Met campus. There was a sign-Full but a staff member flagged me to pull in and moved the sign over. I got my ticket but the arm wouldn't go up. I hurried over to the pay booth and was told to go back to my car and he would send someone as it was stuck again. I suggested to Ron that he should go on ahead through the hospital so he wouldn't be late while I parked the car. Shortly a security guard told me I had to move. They had closed the lot for security reasons as some cars were parked incorrectly. I then circled around for 15 minutes looking for a space to park. I am late and I have Ron's injection with me so I hurried to the clinic (4 blocks). When we returned to our car, we found the $30 ticket. I had a Cancer Clinic Parking Permit on my dashboard so they knew the vehicle belonged to a cancer patient. I submitted a review form with pictures to the Parking Enforcement. They sent me an email reducing my fine to $27 and extended my deadline 9 more days.
Patients and caregivers do not need this stress and frustration!

Excellent Emplyee

I was shopping around 6 and I wanted to say great job to the Deli night stuff at Metro on Banwell. The girl working there was amazing and she handled a hard situation very professionally. I want to say to the lady that yelled at the employee, that the world does not revolve around you. You have to realize that you have to wait your turn to get serivce and it was not the employee's fault you couldn't find what you wanted. There was no need to yell at the employee.
