What we've been hearing, certainly from my members, in the last several weeks to several months has been, “We are competitive. We are a supportive environment. We invest in our staff.” Also, it's not just a job; it's a career. Nearly every single person on my board, for example, got their start washing dishes in a restaurant. It's in their blood, and it's not a job to be looked down upon.
The problem we have and the feedback we're getting in these job interviews when we're trying to hire is, “What if you get closed down again?”
We have no control over that. It's mandated by the provincial governments, and without a crystal ball, it's incredibly difficult for us to offer any sort of security for them. Again and rightly so, it's a tough position for us to be in.
