Top management could spend more time to understand the counselours and provide more time for counselours to rest. More time spent on counselour job evaluations and reviews would be very helpful.

Coffee is the best in the world. Way better than starbucks or anyplace like that. Great relationship with hockey in Canada.

Muffins aren't great. Could be better. Soups have too much salt in them. Not sure why they do that but they do.

Advice to Senior Management

Make better muffins. Make the places feel cozier. Not sure what else to say. Start paying more dividends. Pension benefits would be nice.
