Yeah Appleone is ****. When I worked at Lavalife I had to deal with such morons there. They still owe me $20 for some deposit thing. I told them to just mail it to me because I wasn't going to drive all the way out to Etobicoke for $20. This was back in July. I got a call from them a week ago saying they have a stale dated check for me, but now it's expired so they have to get a new one from head office, and I can come pick it up. I said again MAIL IT TO ME, YOU HAVE MY ADDRESS. She's like well call me next friday and I should have it then, and you can remind me to mail it. And she had the biggest attitude. I said "i'm reminding you right now, mail it to me, i'm not driving all the way out there", but she wouldn't mail the thing unless I call her in a week.

Like honestly, how retarded is that?

very retarded .....

job hunting is tough but if done right can be simple... go to industrial parks knock on doors and ask .... visit 25 coimpanies a day ... sooner or later you'll find a place hiring......

I'd be interested. I'm looking for a job too.

Check the classifieds in the newspaper....sometimes you can find something.

yeah we prepare recipes and make spices for meats and seasoning , there is production area and warehouse

i work in production, they need 3 more people

i started last week, i used to work there 3 years ago for a year

i am always looking for better opportunities, and the job market is very tough now , so i took this old job back, better then sitting at home and making no $$$

the only thing is , my clothes stink everyday from spices

oh well

its at qew/dorval
