Ok so I was eating my cornflakes this morning getting ready for school, when I heard a story on CFRB 1010 Toronto about a London (Ontario) woman who was fired for giving a 16 cent timbit to a little child. I tihnk shes a single mother with 4 kids or something like that. 16 cents really is a massive blow in your budget timmys

 it was one dick manager at the store that she worked, and the firm (tim hortons) has already apoligized and given her a  job at a different store.
