aNOTHER LONG ....whoops .... Another long weekend, and I'm stuck working!

Why is it always the good worker that work the long weekends?? It seems Dog fuckers or the ass kissers get the weekend off.

Luckily the store is closed both nights before I get there, so I don't need to worry about customers, but I still have two long nights ahead. Looks like I have an order and a night to get ready for inventory, and I'm sure the freezer is a complete mess! It's not like I have extra time each night, and I doubt thatother departments do, but it seems the other 2 departments leave their messes for me to clean up.

Menial labour has never been this stressfull, but I'm not one of those guys that goes in and "puts in time" like so many other union members do. I like to get work done, and I've always said that as long as I go home with the knowledge that I put in a good night then I'm happy.

Have a great Canada Day weekend!

No, YES, no, no

Movie day was pretty much a bust, out of the house before 9:30a.m.,and home at 12:20a.m., and I was incredibly tired from doing nothing.

The best part of the day was the Mushrooms neptune at The Keg, the worst was the movies I saw. WEElllll that's not quite true, I really enjoyed X-men 3, enjoyed a few good jumps from The Omen, and laughed a few times at both Over the Hedge AND The Break Up, but the only one I was happy to have paid for would have been X-men.

I'm really happy that all of my movies were free:-)

No reviews, sorry, no interest after the day I had, but I will say, go see X-men, let your young children enjoy Over the Hedge, you'll jump at the Omen(but you won't be scared), and the only reason to see The Break up is for Jennifer Aniston ...... damn she still looks hot!

OH, Chick flick alert, YEP, The Break Up is a chick flick. I'm just happy Fred and Stew came of their own accord, they had every chance to check it out before hand and although they tried, they CAN'T blame it on me ..... HA HA!

I hope it's not true!

I'm not one of those people that thinks Canada is immune to bad things happening in the rest of the world. What I am, is amazed people are willing to kill for ANY reason, and almost always say it's a "religious" thing.

I've always said that if you want to come to Canada, work hard and get along, then welcome! But why can't people just enjoy life, and leave others alone? Why do people think what they say has more importance(or more impact) than what I feel myself?? Why am I force fed ideas that I may not believe, and when I say "That's not how I feel" I'm made to feel like I'm wrong??

This comes to my problem, why do people come here, sometimes for years, with the only thought in there mind is to kill people to get their point across? We, as a wealthy Country are duty bound to help when we need to. Whether it be an uprising, civil war, or a natural disaster ..... We will always lend a hand, just ask us! Why oh why then are we judged by our friends, and grouped in because of our proximity to our closest ally?? Don't judge me by my friends, judge me only when you know me.

To say I'm mildy dumbfounded by the recent arrest of a group of people intent on killing innocent people to "get a point across"is an understatement. I can't remember ever wanting to kill somebody because of their beliefs, and I can't understand why people would do this. I guess maybe I'm a silly little Canadian that figures everybody should get along, or maybe people should worry about themselves. What I'm not is blind, it's time for our government to step up and make getting into this Country a little harder. Fingerprint anybody coming in, commit a crime and we get a fingerprint off a weapon? You lose your landed immigrant and are deported immediately, NO APPEALS!

I read a little something on the weekend about a business owner from another country that was given landed immigrant status for simply "lending"the government of Canada 1/2 of the net worth of his company for something like 8-10 years. He's then given LIS and given the money back without interest. What would stop some "terrorists" from using family businesses to buy there way into Canada?? This needs to be stopped!
