So, on your holiday days off...

I think the only difference is that if you work in a mall, you can cut that 40k figure about in half.

French fries. Gravy. Cheese curds. You know that was one of those foods that was invented when someone was on the brink of starvation and that to avoid death and was like “Hey, this is really good. If I ever get enough strength to lift my arms again I’m going to sell this stuff!”

:meh:

Or a real man with a hairy fucking back took 3 of the most badass foods he knows of - fried potatoes, concentrated and thickened dripping from an animal carcass and fucking CHEESE and put them all together in a dish of awesome.

some retail managers do pretty good. maybe not in the US since so many people are willing to live in or around the poverty level with a smile on their face… but up here i’t a bit different.

store managers at Pier 1 pull in like $60k+… at a fucking furniture store.

Schooners? Or which one? All the bars there RULE!

+1 for the cool bartenders at alex bay

lmfao lmfao lmfao lmfao

Well from a culinary standpoint Poutine is an absolute failure. Just because some people are raised to like it doesn’t mean it’s quality. Name 1 top restaurant worldwide that prides themselves in their poutine? It’s incorrect in it’s basis (sauce + curd + starch + no protein inherently) and therefor no culinary way to make it correctly.

For example, burgers are 1000x superior in design to poutine. Carb, protein with interchangeable sauces (from ketchup to mustard to melted cheese etc) served typically with a starch, sauced by either melted cheese or ketchup. Plus small efficient man-sized salad placed between sauce and bun.

Not this crazy starch/fatty gravy/CURDS? nonsense!

NONSENSE!!!

typical poutine eater:

Failure from a human standpoint. Note the following:

-greasy and unattractive, yet specifically selected glasses and trimmed chin hair, imply they care about their appearance but not to be attractive.

-unnecessary southpark hat worn while cooking?

-weird spotchy armhair, probably due to incest

-small non-threatening skeletal frame, inappropriate for fighting or battle

-dishwasher AND dishrack? why? again, probably because of incest.

-IS MAKING DEEP FRYED BURGERKING POUTINE, FOR GODSSAKE

or they were :burnin:

The Buffalo Wing Curd you can get from wegman’s works very well too!

When I was a wee little lad, I would often go to the Towne restaurant in Buffalo for french fries & gravy with my father and it was delicious. Haven’t been there in years though.

From working at the mall to Poutine, in a few short posts.

NICE.

LOL

The wife thinks I should buy this shirt for when our canadian friends visit.

this is very true, being a SM here at LIDS isnt much but its a good foot in the door to make a decent amount of money for doing something i like to do.

i wasnt pointing fingers at you bing, i know the cannucks on here are cool. but i have had to deal with this shit for too long, and it seems that the people that work in the malls or have, know exactly what i am talking about.

like i said in my OP, if i have to tell you to take the group conversations out of the doorway of my store, then you have no common sense. i loose a lot of business because of groups of canadian hockey moms and dads standing in my doorway in groups of 10+ people, waiting for their hats to be done, talking and not respecting others shopping in the mall. its truely annoying and i’ve about had it.

shit, i would love to meet some of you northerners in canada, y’all seem like cool people and i have nothing against people who wanna talk about car stuff all day and just relax.

oh and to all the go to college comments, i did, and wasted 10k and 3 years of my life doing it, im going to go back part time to get a business degree to start my own business, but this pays the bills and pays for the mods on my car just fine lol

I was at the Riverboat bar actually, across from the Cavallarios steak house.

I would agree with you BUT they also make up the majority of the refusals/ejections/arrests at the Bills game.

It seems to be consistent with how they acted at the mall.

On a different note, the apprehensions at the store I worked at were 95% American to 5% Canadian.

dont worry, i can handle anti-canadianism when it’s as ill-founded as it is in this thread.

if someone tried to make an actual case it might be a lil different :slight_smile:

Canada sucks.

I <3 poutine.

I <3 Toronto, Vancouver B.C./Whistler, and even like the falls. Canada is :tup: in my book.

As far as working retail at the mall man I love the people that are so above it. I worked retail about 5 years ago and I did not hate it. If the pay was what I wanted I would for sure manage a store in the mall. Not my first choice of work but while I go back to school id be down.

PREACH ON!!! srsly tim stop being so ignorant. most of the canadians i met are very nice and helpful. count the times you walk behind someone into a store. how many times will an american hold the door for you…not very often. try that in canada. i guarantee 9 out of ten will wait and hold the door for you. oh and BTW THEY GIVE YOU A PAYCHECK EVERY WEEK. if you cut the canadians out of that mall you will have nothing.

PS. this is why all foreigners hate americans

Hey, they got good beer and strip clubs…
