Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
My uncles cat "Chin" has been missing for about 3 weeks now. He is an indoor/ outdoor cat. My uncle has moved into a rest home and we are trying to find the cat so he can live with family. He would be known to the area, but is probably being seen much more now. White cat with black markings, he is very scared/ skittish with a loud cry.
To John, our waiter at East Side Mario. He was so kind and obviously overwhelmed. He was efficient,very knowledgeable about specials and very sweet. I'm hoping he doesn't go home and feel stressed but was obvious he may very well. Just want to thank him for his service,smile and making our dinner a memorable one.
Our Collie mix was lost in the Riverside/ Jefferson area, he is brown/ black/ white mixed and VERY friendly and answers to Jack or Jackson. He was lost around 1030 last night(saturday) please call 5198195467 if found please
To creeps who decided to help themselves to my personal belongings while I was at work, you've been spotted! I sincerely hope that it was worth it for the things that you stole. A 2 yr old laptop that isn't worth much, yet has priceless memories in photos. My deceased mother's jewelry, again, not worth a lot, yet priceless to me. My kid's game system and games, among other things. Police were called, finger prints and shoe prints taken. I hope you are found, but most of all, I just want my things back! I'm glad nobody was hurt, but my heart is aching it makes me so sad that people feel that they can help themselves to things that aren't theirs. If you have any decency, you will return the items as, as I mentioned before, they're not worth a lot of money, but hold priceless sentimental worth to me!

Yesterday at work, a customer had come through my till. I don't usually work on cash, but this shift was an exception. I made every effort to give my customer a smooth, friendly check out. I was polite as usual, asked if she found everything okay, and did my job with a smile on my face. As I handed her bag to her and wished her a good day, she turned to me and said "so you don't say thank you anymore?" ... I was so confused. And I asked, "pardon?" she repeated her question. I proceeded to say thank you and have a good day, clearly not understanding why she was so snarky with me. She stormed off with a big, loud "ugh" after reading my name tag. It completely ruined the rest of my work day.
To anyone who has been lucky enough to not work in retail: be nicer to those of us who do. Just because I'm standing behind the counter and you're in front, doesn't give you the right to blatantly disrespect me.
Signed,
The girl who'd rather work on the floor.
I went to the Colour Run today and spotted the Windsor Parking Meter Maids ticketing all of the cars on side streets parked at meters that expired. I know its the bi-law in Windsor. I also know that downtown Windsor has become a ghost town of only "bar-hopping" teenagers and vacant, abandoned offices and past retail stores. An event like the Colour Run brings OVER 10 THOUSAND PEOPLE to the downtown core, where the city NEEDS people to go. So I ask the politicians of Windsor to give me a great reason as to why you cannot have "slack" days for one day events like these in an effort to make Windsor downtown vibrant again, with a good economy. Personally, I parked in the FULL parking garage. But friends of ours had to go to the meter 2 times during the event to put in more coins. And on the final one, they had a Meter-Maid 2 cars down from theirs, hovering around, waiting for the final 3 minutes to tick off their meter clock. WAKE UP POLITICIANS!!!! And this event was in support of the local Alzheimer's Charity as well. Wake up Windsor Politicians!
