Newspaper Delivery (Former Employee) - Hamilton, BM - 26 June 2018
You manage your own time, while managing to deliver the papers on time. It is early mornings. Management is effective. It took about an hour and a half to complete my route.

Pays well, but staffing cuts have exposed toxic workplace culture
Copy Editor (Former Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 22 March 2021
It was very cool to work in the Spectator building for just over a year. But elements of the workplace culture can be pretty brutal. Some 'lifers' including a sports editor who is an out-and-out bully bring the place down.
Pros
Strong union
Cons
Old thinking
