Personal experience ?
You could say that.
When I went to work for a major supermarket over ten years ago they played us all sorts of training videos about why stealing from your drawer is a bad idea and you'll get caught. Modern supermarkets have cameras covering every checkouts to monitor theft on both side.
As for the whole 'you take a lot of shit from people', that exactly why everyone should work a job like that at least once. It might actually disincline your average punter from behaving like a cunt.
In the last fifteen years I've delivered pizza, worked a supermarket checkout, worked on hotel reception and now in hotel management. Delivering pizza was the best in terms of customer satisfaction. What a shame the pay is so ordinary.

Except they couldn't actually prove I took money from the till, (I didn't, if I wanted to take money I would've waited until the till was at its fullest, grabbed everything and ran), or else they would've pressed charges on the spot. It was an ugly mess all around.

All it did was leave me a seething hatred for retail and humanity in general. Ymmv.
I can speak well of kitchenhand work. The chefs push you, and you're constantly at the bottom of the ladder. But upon taking it, and not quitting, you feel good about yourself. My marks went up at uni considerably once I started working.
It's like customer service, but all of your customers are chefs and such. You'll quickly be able to tell who was a kitchen hand.
i don't fucks with the rest of the provinces or territories
but i mean if this is wildly successful and the rest of my year is wildly successful we may see alberta buying out bc after they elect the socialists and they tank
Alright, can anyone tell me why the board software still tells me I can't post a picture because of pixel limits even after I've resized the pic to below the limit and then waited until the next day (while shutting down my computer for the night and while I'm at work)?

because whoever set that fucking limit is a fucking idiot
What FROD means is; When you said 'Your mum is going to see a play with Stephen Fry'. Did you mean, 'is she going to see a play in the company of Stephen Fry?' which if you're going to be pedantic is what you said. Presumably you meant 'your mum is going to see a play with Stephen Fry in it.' ie a play where stephen fry is performing as an actor.
