It’s one thing to say, the mindset of considering a “home” being a detached single family home needs to change.
It’s a completely different thing to say now you should live with your uncle and your parents and that’s the norm.

I hate how these temporary foreign workers are making me sound racist, which was never like me.
From how shitty they make food or provide customer service at various "fast food" establishments, to what happened to me today.
I got into a fender bender on 12th (Asian driver smoked me), ended up turning left onto Ash, and quickly parked in one of the outside spots at City Square mall. Right as I got out the car the brown lot attendant who barely spoke English started walking up to my smashed up car telling me I can't park there. I told her nicely, listen, I need to run back up to 12th St and exchange info with the other driver, and I'll be gone.
I proceed back 5 minutes later to her writing me a ticket on my clearly damaged car. I ended up calling head office with the parking company to have it waived and to complain about the attendant.
It's examples like that which really makes me start to hate this foreign worker program, it's the lack of decorum, the total lack of connection to the community these people tend to have. I never imagined in my life that someone would have such a lack of character to write a ticket on my car while parking in the lot for less then 5 minutes right after being in an accident.
I find it refreshing when I'm in the US, dealing with actual local citizens who work in such positions but carry a level of poise and grace, common sense.
I'm ranting but I see so many examples from a service perspective from these people over the last few years that it's really starting to turn me into a person I don't wish to be.
I'm hearing more and more people tell these anecdotal stories about these workers here on FTW, and their negative engagements.
