Whither the Royal Canadian Legion? Or RCL Withers?

Best blue cheese wings in town ?

Not sure if it's the best, but recently had wings at the Lieutenants Pump and can recommend (lots of options for dry rub, sauces etc)

In the NCR, not sure there is a legion downtown, but the local one in my neck of the wood has the normal 'meat and potato' meal on Fridays with some kind of bridge/meat giveaway/cribbage kind of activities, so pretty select audience. Don't see them lasting too long.

On the stretch of Richmond Road I mentioned is a RCL branch. They are a dank second story walk up, with operating hours geared towards retired folks, open only one evening of the five days they open each week.

I assume that, like most RCL locations, they are a leaky roof or burst boiler away from being bankrupt.

Byward market is a bit more upscale.

I thought I would hate it here, made me realize the fleet is a brutal hamster wheel that I can only do in short spurts.

YMMV with the different jobs, but worse options than the NCR. If it looks unavoidable, recommend volunteering for a specific job to minimize the pain (or risk a punishment posting; for me that's a policy weenie)

There was a point I thought it was in my future. But another organization is making me an offer that's hard to turn down.

Still giving the RCN a chance to keep me.

Time will tell.

Same in my community. I miss the flying and travel sometimes, but NCR jobs have been good experiences so far.

That's awesome, happy for you!

@dimsum I'm 3/4 for good NCR jobs, but that 1 in 4 was a doozy. Still, winning ratio!
