ATLANTA As his six restaurants started ramping up for a post-pandemic world, Brian Will was struggling to find employees, so he went with the classic economics response for hard-to-find things.
He paid more.
Will raised wages for jobs like dishwasher and hostess from $8 or $10 an hour to $15. And he bumped up pay for those on his staff already at that level.
“We started to get a better quality of applicants,” he said. “And the employees we already had, the ones that we gave raises to, they stepped up their game.”
OTTAWA As the province gets set to ramp up its vaccine rollout in pharmacies across Ontario this week, one Rexall location in Orléans says its process has so far been seamless for most people 55 and older wanting to get a COVID-19 vaccine. Since last Monday our first batch we received around 300 doses and they were gone within two days, said Bashir Amir, the practice lead for Rexall in Eastern Ontario. We are booking every five minutes because in this way as soon as we receive the vaccine, we get them to the arms. Kim Wallace was one of several people who received the AstraZeneca vaccine at the pharmacy on Orléans Boulevard Tuesday. She said the shot represents a positive future ahead, being able to see my mother and family and maybe travel again.

If you happened to see any social media coverage of what Lower Broad looked like over the weekend, you know that Nashville is essentially 100 percent open when it comes to the tourist trade. While you might not be ready to plunge into the neon river yet, there are local events coming up that have been designed with your safety and entertainment in mind â and weâre all in for these sorts of options.
The first one on the docket is the annual Corkdorks Nashville Wine and Food Festival, which will remain virtual this year since their dates are coming up soon, Friday, April 23, through Sunday, April 25. Even though the experience will be online, organizers have worked hard to put together a really impressive lineup of wine professionals to lead virtual tastings on all three days of the fest.
