I'm a Canadian visiting in America, the question came up and the answers were fascinating and not at all what I expected.

Curious as to whom you folks think of!

Probably no one you know, but I visited a bakery in port hardy (Vancouver Island), and the gut behind the counter was super sweet and welcoming. While she was serving me she got called from her boss and she excused herself with tears in her eyes „sorry, I have to response immediately, she is gonna yell at me again“.

I still want to hug her. Still want to show her how a professional boss would treat her. Give her a nice job and get her out of this worker’s hellhole.

The breakfast was great, though.
