Yeah, we're awful people for not wanting to pack the venues just to make extra money, instead of simply scaling back to run smaller shows with a smaller capacity. I'm not a slacker either. I kick ass, and know wtf I'm doing. That's why I'm one of the few in my industry still employed. I've worked every job in my industry from the front of the house to the back of the house.
Oh, and btw I'm hiring for outdoor events for this Summer right now. My colleagues are going back to work!
I’m curious though, you have 3 bosses above you. Are you like basically the roadie? Sounds like you’re the little monkey in the big jungle?
Ummm you said 3 actually? It’s ok the world needs “rodeos”
.
That is why voting for Democrats would have been the right choice. Right now they are the only party that is trying (and have any ability) to legislate for 100% of the nation.
Nah I heard all the folks are making to much money on unemployment to return to the poverty wages "job creators" are offering
Yeah it really is annoying to hear business owners crying about not being able to get people to come work their slightly above minimum wage that is dealing nonstop with the public (which if the Karen videos have shown anything is that a percentage of them are radicalized to being safe and rational with masks/vaccines) selling that owners goods, during a pandemic, and blaming it on their potential employees making too much money on UE.
They are in some cases, namely the restaurant and hotel industry.
In another industry
My wife is having a terrible time finding decent accountants. She's hurled 90,000 per year at them and can't hire them.
Maybe not right now but don't tell some people that.Ummm you said 3 actually? It’s ok the world needs “rodeos”
I waited tables, pretending like hourly wages have anything to do with how much money people make is nonsensical.
Are you talking about in a non pandemic world?
In a non-pandemic world on a busy night back in early 2000's I could clear $200-$300 on a busy night. $100 on virtually any stay shift, so yeah even if I was just waiting tables again, in a pre-pandemic world, people get back to work.
A stay in the razor wire motel for anybody who shows up. They either believe covid is fake news, which makes them dangerous idiots, or they think covid is real and that makes them murdering bastards. Intern them for the duration of the public health crises and fine them life altering amounts. I and other responsible Canadians are tired of this bullshit, change the laws if required and make such things mandatory internment. We need to deal with people who have no brains or sense, or simply don't give a shit about others, they need to be dealt with immediately and firmly. They can have their hearing via video with a judge, but everybody needs to realize the magnitude of their crimes and the death and injury they are responsible for. How else can you deliberately murder people and get away with it, other than this? I don't really care what they "believe", tell it to the judge from the razor wire motel.Maybe not right now but don't tell some people that.
'Exercise our right': Central Alberta rodeo to proceed against COVID-19 restrictions
A rodeo scheduled for this weekend in defiance of provincial health regulations is still a go according to organizers.
But the “No More Lockdown Rodeo Rally” is facing stiff headwinds.
First, the Bowden Agricultural Society revoked it’s permit for the group to use the town’s rodeo grounds. That move was made following discussions with Alberta Health Services.
“I think it would have been good for the businesses here in town,” said Bowden mayor Robb Stuart. “I know the town and the AG society has done everything they possibly can to ensure we weren’t infringing on anybody’s rights to still follow like we have to deal with under the Alberta Health Services’ protocols.”
Secondly, a pair of rodeo cowboy associations distanced themselves from the event. The Foothills Cowboys Association and Wildrose Rodeo Association recently reversed course and withdrew their support of the event.
They went on to lash out at the decision and at provincial authorities saying, “We will not stand by idly and watch as not only our businesses but also our Western heritage and more importantly, our basic human rights are ripped out of existence by the tyrannical beings of our current world.”
The event is set to become as much a political rally as a sporting event, listing guest speakers well known for their opposition to COVID-19 health restrictions, including Innisfail activist and mayoral candidate Glen Carritt.
“We’re in civil disobedience right now and if people don’t move forward with civil disobedience then the next step is not fun,” said Carritt. “We want to exercise our right our freedom to assemble.”

Black crowes in July, Primus in September. Think it'll still happen?Yeah, we're awful people for not wanting to pack the venues just to make extra money, instead of simply scaling back to run smaller shows with a smaller capacity. I'm not a slacker either. I kick ass, and know wtf I'm doing. That's why I'm one of the few in my industry still employed.

Outdoor venues, absolutely. Some indoor venues may get cancelled depending on what the future holds.
Primus is for sure outdoors. Fuck yeah.
I believe that their tour does include a few theater performances, but I'm not familiar with all of the venues, which may have outdoor options as well.
