Sounded like it would be awesome and another of my life's tiny regrets. À la prochaine.

I thought about reaching out when she’s in TO but it’s well outside of my comfort zone before you factor travel rates. Very intriguing tho.

I’ve had whole threads deleted bc of this when I use my phone and it's dumb. Neither terb or perb force this and it's a wild requirement in the Year of our Lord 2026.

You court Amazon and deserve what you get, and businesses that emulate them make life harder for everyone. I've specifically said that the working class (which includes students and esp min wage earners) get affected by strikes, which directly and immediately includes the people actually...

We won't agree on anything here bc you must be under the impression that employers always or often acting in good faith towards their workers and that the majority of the reason that corporations pass down cost increases to consumers has to be at the expense of keeping up with an ever-increasing...

Hard disagree. Always ask for more, esp if they say it's unreasonable, and always stand with unions.

Well? Are you? You have to say if we ask you.

C'est formidable. L'action collective est le seul moyen pour les travailleurs d'obtenir ce qu'ils veulent.

This is the way. Yeah the interview is awkward but they don't really grill you, and almost all the questions are about your potential to take away an American job by having easier access back and forth. Then it's smooth sailing at every crossing. Also, there used to be a bridge (maybe it's...
