It's a known fact that city hall in Hamilton is one of the most toxic workplaces in the city. There is a well documented and public examples of bad behaviour toward staff, being rude to them, and being forced to do and deal with things that they shouldn't. Having spoken to staff from Hamilton, Burlington, Oakville, Waterloo and Toronto, is clear to me that probably the best city to work for in terms of a respectful environment is Waterloo, and worst is Hamilton. This isn't a single incident, this is another item along a long list of people's work being tossed out as not important. That's a 1950s way of thinking of work, and is completely incompatible with today's work culture. If this is the way you work in your professional workplace then I advise you to move jobs because that is an incredibly bad for your health workplace.
