Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings all around the world
Here's the thing. While the College Council and the Union representing the Teachers argue and nit pick has anyone thought to ask the students what they want? Has anyone asked the young adults that are looking to start their grown up life and get out into the working world? Has anyone asked the husband and father that was laid off and needs this academic year to get a new job so he can continue to provide for his family? Has anyone asked the single mother that went back to school so she could stop working 3 jobs so she could be home for her children after school to help them with their homework and kiss them goodnight before bed? Has anyone asked the woman that escaped an abusive relationship and for the first time can think of providing for herself and her children? Has anyone asked the mother that put her education on hold so that she could be there for her children as they grew up and is now taking the time for herself to continue her academic journey? Has anyone asked the international students that came to learn from us and take the knowledge back to their countries to be able to provide better services in their communities. HAS ANYONE BOTHERED TO ASK??
I am asking the members of the Teacher's Union PLEASE consider this when you cast your vote!!
To the male (you neither deserve to be called a gentleman or man for that matter), with the British accent, at the Windsor Train Station parking lot, Oct. 29th; In case you didn't notice at the time the lot was full and the through lanes to get around were blocked by other cars. I was not parked. I was stuck and had no where to go. I was there to pick up my daughters and was trying to keep my eye out for them as well as navigate the mess in the lot. Your aggressive approach and verbal attack were not warranted and were incredibly ignorant. Screaming at me to move my fn car and get out of your fn way just showed your lack of maturity and made me feel sorry for the woman that was with you. You are obviously a bully and expect people to jump when you scream at them. Unfortunately I'm not that person and I fight back. I hate bullies!! On the upside you did provide me with a great example to use with my daughters when explaining the difference between a real man a petulant child. Grow up and learn how to behave!!
To the people that may comment that I'm publicly shaming someone here is my response to you. This man angrily approached my vehicle and verbally attacked me (a woman alone in her car) and I can't let that go. I keep thinking what if it was my teenage daughter alone in the car and this happened. How much farther would he have taken it because she wouldn't have answered back. She would have been afraid that a grown man was aggressively approaching her for no reason. People like him need to know this behaviour IS NOT OK!!
At approximately 3:00 pm Saturday Oct 28th I was crossing with the light in my wheelchair @ Lauzon Rd & St Rose & was hit. The car is very bright white with darker tinted windows all around. I'm glad he was just rolling & not accelerating. He didn't attempt to get out of his car,by time my wheelchair scraped the front end of his car to get off the road to the sidewalk he was gone & I've no idea what direction he drove off to. I was crossing to NW corner travelling towards the river & he was facing East. .if anyone saw anything please reply. My left arm got crushed between my chair & his car & is sore other than that I'm ok. Thank you Creator for watching over me.
You know who you are and what you did on County Rd 42 Friday, October 20th around 6:20am travelling eastbound towards Tilbury just past Saint Joachim. You HIT my car knocking BOTH of our drivers side mirrors off and YOU KEPT GOING?!?!? Did you know, for whatever reason your vehicle crossed over the centreline, whether you were distracted falling asleep or attempting to pass a vehicle in front of you, it doesn't explain the choice you made to leave the scene of the accident. Did you know that my car after being knocked from the road rolled three times leaving me alone and suspended upside down secured by my seatbelt thank God. reeling in pain terrified screaming out for help knowing I had to get myself out of the car? Did you know that there are still beautiful people in this world her name is Rhonda she stopped and stayed with me-until help arrived? Did you know that I have three wonderful children and a loving husband and my first grandbaby on her way? Did you know that I was supposed to be celebrating my 30th wedding anniversary this weekend instead my husband has been left to take care of me and put the pieces back together. He has to listen to me yell out in pain when I move the wrong way and deal with my moods which range from being super thankful that I made it out OK to angry and short tempered because I hate having people to have to take care of me like this? I do know that accidents happen I also know that what you did was not intentional or personal. I hope now that you've had the weekend to think about it you decide to turn yourself into the OPP. Know that if you do not my family and friends will continue to look for you we have pieces of your vehicle. Do the right thing it was only an accident don't let the guilt stay with you because you know what you did and even if you get rid of the car you can't get rid of the guilt.
To my family and friends thank you so much for being there loving me and showing me your support. Please share hopefully it reaches its rightful owner.
I was at the lakeshore Cinemas having a great time with my husband watching Geostorm. We were sitting in the back row, everyone seemed to be enjoying the moving and reacting with "Oh Mys!" and " Oh Nos!" When I heard someone a few seats down sit up and turn to this couple and tell them to please be quiet. The young lady that was told to be quiet told her to relax. The boyfriend or husband of the one that raised her voice told the couple that they were ruin it for everyone. Then it went back to the inocent couple and she told him to shut up.
Now maybe I wouldn't of told the guy to Shut Up but Who can blame her. She went on the defensive to someone who presumed to be having a bad day or is generally miserable and defended herself for being rudely accused of talking. My opinion that couple that walked out were the ones that made a scene. Maybe you didn't want to see the movie or was being dragged by your boyfriend to watch it but it did not warrant getting mad at this couple while they and everyone else were enjoying the movie. Was it really worth the drama you caused or was it just an excuse to leave a movie you didn't want to see and get your money back. Either way you do need to relax and just enjoy the movie like the rest of us.
I am actually hoping someone might spot this for me. My new hand-made life size Freddy Krueger somehow managed to walk off his platform. My fiancee worked really hard on him and we're just so disappointed that someone stole him. It was between 2-2:30am on Saturday Oct. 21. We live near St. Christopher's school. Any info would be greatly appreciated. I have ways of knowing if he's ours.
Thanks in advance.. Happy Halloween.
Shout out to the lady who came to my Tim Hortons today and threatened to throw her tea at me if it was made wrong. (To which, it was not.) At first I thought you were joking, you noticed this and confirmed with me you were not. We understood you wanted 2 sugar and 2 milk in your tea, we are trained to call and punch this in as a 'double double WITH MILK'. You insisted that a 'double double' is with cream, and as correct as that is, I did point out that your tea was made with MILK. Why is it necessary to threaten a person with bodily harm over a drink? If it was made wrong, would you have been satisfied with the jail time you would receive all for a single drink? That seems absolutely asinine to me. Unfortunately, coupled with the fact that I am uncomfortable with confrontation and I had already cashed you out I could not refuse to service you for fear of the situation escalating. I was so shook after you had left, my hands shaking with adrenaline. This should not happen. You should not talk to people like that.
To the person who stole my purse out of my van while I was playing with my grandson at the playground on the west side of Jackson Park between 10am-11am on 10-17-17. Thank you for ruining my day!!! I had a day planned with fun-filled activities which quickly changed to cancelling credit cards, calling the bank and now having to get my i.d. replaced. Was it worth the & lt;$20 you stole? I would pay more than that to have my personal property back! That purse was my favorite. Beware anyone parking at Jackson Park...even when you THINK there's nobody around...the thieves lurk!!! PURSE THIEF....you've been SPOTTED!
