Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings all around the world
I want to thank my employees who worked with me last night. They notice I was having some medical issue. With out any hesitation they stood by my side. They even asked me it I needed an ambulance, which I decline. Thank again for being there and for your understanding.
The very grateful employer
Id like to recognize the staff working on Wednesday afternoon at Dirty Jerseys. My two young kids and I took my grandmother out for lunch and while eating, my grandma has a stroke. It took a while to realize this so while I was trying to help my gram, the staff played with my 3 year old and carried my 4 month old around so I could focus on my gram. They phoned an ambulance and stayed with us until it came, and covered the bill for us. I appreciated the understanding help and compassion I received from all three of them. Thank you, very much!

To the staff at Dirty Jersey's day shift............I just wanted to give you a HUMUNGOUS THANK YOU. Wednesday My mother, step-daughter and my two grandkids were there for lunch. My mother had a stroke. You called an ambulance for her and while the attendants were taking care of her you were playing with my grandkids and keeping them occupied. If it wasn't for the quick calm action of your staff things may have been worse and for that I THANK THE STAFF from the bottom of my heart.
I was driving to work my usual way of going eastbound on Tecumseh Rd. and just coming off Lauzon Rd. when I noticed the 1C bus in front of the Tecumseh Mall waiting for some young teenagers to cross the street for them to board the bus. Usually I see the buses take off pretty quickly as I know they have a schedule to keep with. Constantly the teenagers are trying to run the red light as the bus will not wait for them which is dangerous but today thank you to the lady bus driver with dark hair who was driving the 1C bus at 7:44 am. Thanks for keeping the kids safe and thanks for waiting for them. It was very nice to see.
To the gentleman who was purchasing ice cream sandwiches in Metro on Central and Tecumseh @ 9:00 pm (approximately) this evening. I let you go ahead of me in line; in turn you paid for most of my purchase with the money you left . I just wanted to say THANK YOU for your generosity.....it is much appreciated.
This is tonight's sunset. Hoping for warmer days to come real soon so everybody can enjoy more sunset like this. And we can all say "I've survived the polar vortex!" :)
Spotted: The amazing nurses in the Windsor/ Essex Region. I'd love to give a shoutout to some of the most dedicated, caring, and compassionate individuals I have ever come across. After having the opportunity to meet dozens of nurses at both campuses of Windsor Regional Hospital, as well as nurses working in the community, I have concluded that these are some of the most patient and resilient men and women I have ever met. Nurses are frequently required to change diapers, hold the barf bucket, treat infected wounds, and other "icky" stuff, and I have never seen a nurse turn up her nose in disgust.
I have witnessed a nurse quietly slip a patient money for a bus fare because she had no way of getting home. I have witnessed a nurse weep over the death of a patient that she had never met, and I have witnessed countless nurses offering comfort and support after a difficult diagnosis. I have watched nurses patiently, carefully, and gently care for people that are in pain, no matter how much of a hurry they are in.
And of course, the nurses are not acting alone. I think every person involved in health care deserves a round of applause, including doctors, nurses, personal support workers, physical therapists, occupational therapists, lab techs, ultrasound/ xray techs, dieticians and other dietary staff, porters, pharmacists, counsellors, clerks, volunteers, paramedics, housekeeping/ janitorial staff, and any other members of the health care field that I neglected to mention. Give yourselves a pat on the back and know that Windsor thanks you!
