My recent observations about few retail businesses in Hamilton Ontario (not sure about other areas)

-
Retail businesses in Hamilton area are making a fool of customers by brining them back to the store by creating artificial situations such as two listed below:

1) factorydirect store in Hamilton sold a Motorola g⁷ play phone with a defective USB power/charging cable to me on Monday July 5th. It is impossible to check every item in the store, based on trust I bought it, just few hours later I found out it was not charging the battery of the phone. It was not worth going back to the store to talk about this issue, so I used my previous cable instead. 

Probably by this trick they want to show traffic of repeat customers.

2) A dry cleaners located inside mountain plaza at Upper James and Fennell strip mall , delayed my pant which was supposed to be ready today on wednesday july 14 of 2021, instead I was told to come back to the store on Friday the 16th which is very disturbing.

I told her politely I will pick it up at my convenience.
they just want to create a deception/illusion by showing me at their shop again and again.

Somebody should look into such behaviour of the retail businesses.

These are very low level and unethical practices which should be noted by the concerned authorities and prevent.

Almost monthly fire alarm practice in this building since I live here (August 01 of 2023, lease was signed on July 28 of 2023 in the presence of two witnesses). This is very unusual. OCH Ottawa community housing should look into the root cause of it. It is inconvenient for seniors to go out of the building in cold weather. This is a seniors building. Unimaginable to have this event on monthly basis where seniors live. Perhaps even student housings do not get so frequent for alarms. When I lived in USA before 2005, it was only once that I heard such fire alarm in the housing and only once at place of work. Never again .  But in Ottawa, in this Building this a monthly activity, perhaps due to the Fire departments training centre in the neighbourhood at 900 Industrial. Is fire department using this building for training their new hires. When I came back to the building by 17h45, fire trucks were not around the building and there was no sign of fire. I called the OCH to find out about this

Car #5 as was labelled on the outside of the train and inside #:3330 First time I travelled by via rail was in 1994 Toronto Union to London Ontario with John Lyng. via rail work used to be error free during those days. For several months in 1994 and perhaps 1995 as well, I used to travel weekly with JohnLyng to London Ontario for a software development project for London Life. (Some one might interpreter this error as change of name, no it was not a change of name, because I (the passenger {Khalid Mahmood}) offered my ID to show, secondly, name was entered in the system and printed on the boarding pass by the via rail staff not by the passenger.).
