And it is on the "good" side of the NE. Everything West of Deerfoot is ok but still less good than the actual NW.

Intelligent?

People who pay only with interac really grind my..

I always figured the level of service (cleanliness specifically) diminished the further north you get - a factor of proximity to Edmonton.

On Friday I went to Cloverdale in the SE by Trail and they were very friendly and found a paint that they made back in 08 for me. Took them 15 mins but they dug it out of the system and found it. Stupid NE

I like cash only. Nothing worse than waiting for 4 people who split one bill and all pay by credit card.

well obviously I owe an apology. Sorry, I was more offended from the comment since just 5 days ago I heard a skin head say that the problem with calgary is "too many lebs and ragheads". So When I saw your comment I pictured the skin head in his black ####kicker boots with the red laces Aryan nation style. So next time please use an emoticon, and I won't over react.

People in the Northeast and dirty SE do not paint, you let the wood dry out and crumble for a Boyz N' the hood type community feel!

I've heard that historically the NE end of most cities in the northern hemisphere are slummier due to prevaling winds from the SW blowing people's stench into that quadrant.

But also I blame the immigants. Damn immigants.

Don't forget the fact that the Lebanese guys give a damn good haircut too! Donairs and haircuts.

Though to be fair, there are far too many Lebs and Ragheads.

I gave up being racist in favour of being a misanthrope. So far it's really working out nice.

Chicken from the Lebanese food court in montreal! YUUUMMMMMMMM.

If they franchised over here OPA would be gone faster than a Greece's bond rating.

The Greeks have been overcharging for kebabs for years. It's about time they were driven from the marketplace...

You're right about the interac. Anybody that doesn't embrace credit card use has something wrong with them (or they went bankrupt and can't have one). I'd rather be in a line of 20 people with credit cards ready to pay, than a similar line with people paying cash or debit. Unless you're specifically about Peter's where burger, fries, milkshake tend to total some even multiple of $20 in which case cash is faster cause you're not getting any change back anyway.
