VIU is facing a lot of financial difficulties. They have cut a bunch of programs.
With reduced immigration business are fckd. People want tims to be open 24/7 but no one want's to work there. tims needs 2 employees at night but if one calls in sick they have to close. People talk about high schools kids working at these places but they can only work like 20 hours a week and many quit after a few months. These places need people who will work 40 plus hours a week and stay for 2/3 years.
