that time I exited the subway into the bay building at younge and bloor. a female about twenty years of age, wearing a winter coat and bright pink pyjama pants was standing by the purdys chocolates, holding out her cell phone the way csis informers are trained. I passed her went outside and down the walk into the tim hortons got my everyday usual steeped tea sat down and in a few minutes a ruckus started at the counter to my right.
there's the girl in the pinkpjamas complaining that half an hour ago she ordered steeped tea like she always does everyday and she was given coffea today. she didn't know till she opened it a few minutes ago and wants to return it and get her tea. the staff is reluctant at first to exchange it after half an hour had gone by, one of them saying "if we give you a steeped tea for the coffea you will come back in half an hour saying it's the wrong order, ", maybe she's done this here before and they recognize her. but finally they give in to her after they get her to check that the drink they give her in the new cup is what she ordered, steeped tea.
it must of been an hour later I left the cafe and went back into the bay building, there she was standing at the corner of purdys chocolate holding her cell phone out in that way csis informers do to let you know you are under surveillance.
the next day I ordered my steeped tea and got coffea, so at the least it was a coincidence, someone on the staff has a short memory for orders or is taking orders from other than the customer. I didn't bother to exchange it. I wonder what they get out of these strange little games.
how this could be used in a fiction. differs from regular csis surveillance stuff, more like an example of the off the record harassments csis uses to bother people they have something or nothing against. or to involve someone else in their cases as informers for any thing.
maybe she was in trouble for a small drug bust and was given the chance to avoid charges if she does something for the police and csis. they want her to order a steeped tea at a cafe and they order a coffea at the same time for her to return to the store and make a complaint about getting the wrong order. together they go and wait near a chocolate store and when the person they are trailing gets off the subway they point him out and she does something to get his attention.
she then waits long enough for him to go to cafe and then follows him and at a cash near where he is sitting she proceeds to make a fuss about her order, the same as his order including how she orders it everyday. the staff are unwilling to exchange her drink at first, then give in providing she checks her new drink before she leaves. all the while her handlers are lurking in the cafe watching it go down.
when the person she was sent to bother leaves and returns to the bay building she is waiting for him at the corner of the chocolate store with her cell phone held as if she's checking email or tweets but as he passes by she turns the same way so the phone is pointed at and follows him. must be csis again he thinks and wonders how long before the next part of the script is carried out.
the next day at the same cafe when he orders steeped tea and has already sat down and opens it, they have given him coffea leading him to conclude this was the other part of the entertainment and that some or all of the staff are in csis employ. perhaps it is part of the contract for working at tim hortons, or it was simply a mistake.
