Wow.
As I'm reading through these posts, all I can think is "is this a review about my favorite Canadian coffee chain, or a teen angst blog-a-thon?" I'd say 50 - 60% of these 1-star posts belong to hard done by employees. Seriously, after reading your posts I can't help but think what outstanding employees you must have been. That can-do attitude really speaks volumes. I'd hire you in a minute. Riiiiiiight...
This coffee house is a Canadian icon. Not overproduced with extensive gift shops and Italian espresso machines producing $5 lattes, but a hold on to our roots staple which has managed to successfully assimilate itself across an entire country and infiltrate another. Awesome coffee with mild complexity brewed in a BUNN. Love it! Employees may find differences from manager to manager, but who doesn't! Wait until you're not living with mommy & daddy, you're on the hook for your bills, a family to support, oh...and your boss sucks. Have a degree? You'll be able to smile at your boss while sporting a middle-finger mustache much more easily. Don't have a degree? Well, maybe there will be another site about your future employer (Olive Garden perhaps?) that you can 'rant' about while dragging them down into that Waahhh pool with you.
Love some Timmy's! Moved down south, so I have to have it shipped. It's not the same. I look forward to holidays when I come back to see my family. There's always a Large Regular and Hockey Night in Canada waiting for me when I get there. If I get the timing right, I get to roll up the rim!
