It's nice to see what semi-competent adults running a region can accomplish...
glares at a giant whiny baby of a country rolling in its own shit
Yeah, I've looked it up and this is definitely the case, I've also had both Canadian and American employers refer to my position this way continuously with no repercussions (I similarly have an engineering degree in another field and was an eit and am now in software).
It's weird because if the provincial engineering societies were serious about enforcing their rules, it would take them ZERO effort to find thousands and thousands and thousands of violations through like a single LinkedIn search. The fact that they dont put in such a minimal amount of effort kind of signals they don't care about the rule.
This is actually quite incorrect, A&W is the second largest fast food chain in Canada after McDonalds... Though not sure how even the spread is regionally.
Lol the McDicks app is not great. You literally can't order ahead of time. It makes you go to the location before you can use the app, basically making it a glorified touchscreen machine rather than something that can save you time.
Also, the prices are not that cheap, at least here. They're comparable to every other fast food chain, including the ones that are substantially better.
And the issue is not with having a different opinion, it's that your reasoning / justification for that opinion inherently indicates that it's not much of an opinion. It's like someone who doesn't listen to a genre of music saying that yeah, I think every xxxx song sounds the same.
Makes perfect sense... Be thankful your town had an A&W and not BK.
I've heard that about in and out as well, a little trick to make customers feel a bit more special, same deal with five guys dumping all the extra fries in the bag... They're fully charging you for them, but it still feels special.
And yeah, originally A&W Canada got sold off to some big conglomerate in the 70s (like Unilever of something), then eventually in the 90s when the conglomerate decided they didn't want them, a group of franchisees banded together and bought A&W Canada from them... So it's been separate from the American version for over 50 years at this point.
How have you only eaten A&W?
But also, in terms of fast food burgers, A&W Canada is pretty top tier.
Lmao, what a daft comment. "McDonalds is fantastic" followed by "they're all the same".
So why even mention McDicks? If every burger is pretty much the same then McDonalds doesn't stand out.
Also, thinking that all burgers are the same feels like one of those "the female orgasm is a myth" comments that just tells us you've never cooked (or apparently even tried) a decent burger.
I haven't heard of people doing that in quite the context you mean, but there's long been stories and parables about how humans shouldn't play god, and the lesson almost always ends with our creations running amok against us.
It has nothing to do with AI, but there is a Christian movement called "red letter Christians", who use Bibles where Jesus's words are written in red to distinguish them from stuff said by other people, and is generally used to point out how much more loving and caring Jesus was then most right wing Christians today.
Don't buy those crappy plastic bag-clips to hold chip bags, flour bags, etc closed. They're unsatisfying, they wear out and bend, and they just add more plastic pollution to the world.
Instead buy more binder clips. They're made from spring steel, they're strong as hell, they almost never wear out, they can be used to close bags, as small clamps, as hangers for almost anything in a pinch, and they're amazing for building pillow / blanket forts.
I have some from my grandma that she bought 30 years ago and they work just as well as the ones I bought a year ago. The only risk with them ever is rust, and you can just scrub that off with vinegar, add a brush of paint and it's fixed.
Truly some of my favourite robust little items.
In Ontario McDicks feels like it has a similar number of locations, but Wendy's and BK seem few and far between. Wendys is still coasting down from all those combination Wendys / Tim Hortons, and BK I just basically do not see at all.
