Relevant Material: "Drivers in some of Canada's major cities spent an average of roughly 144 hours in rush-hour traffic last year, according to new data from location technology company TomTom.

The global report, released last week, shows Toronto and Vancouver were the two worst cities in Canada, the third and fourth worst in North America and 30th and 31st worst worldwide when it came to time spent driving in traffic, with 199 hours and 197 hours respectively.

Globally, London, U.K.; Bengaluru, India; and Dublin, Ireland were the three worst cities globally with 325 hours, 260 hours and 277 hours stuck in rush hour traffic, respectively.

Ten other Canadian municipalities — Winnipeg, Montreal, London, Halifax, Edmonton, Ottawa, Hamilton, Calgary, Kitchener-Waterloo and Quebec — were included in the report, which analyzed drivers' average travel time based on a one-way 10-kilometre commute.

The report allows people to select individual cities and calculate how long it would take to travel through them, as well as how much carbon dioxide is emitted and how much money is spent on fuel. 

For example, in Hamilton, drivers travelling 10 kilometres one-way in 2022 lost 114 hours in traffic, spewed roughly 1,737 pounds of carbon dioxide into the environment and spent $601 filling up their tanks. That's 13 minutes and 40 seconds consumed by traffic daily, according to the data...."(https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/hamilton/traffic-time-2022-1.6755102)

Relevant Material: "Lateness and tardiness (also referred to as “absenteeism”) occurs when an employee is late for work. Lateness and tardiness can range from being ten minutes late, an hour late, or even not showing up for the scheduled shift.

In most circumstances, lateness and tardiness may be accidental. Some common reasons for being late to work are:

  • Bad traffic.
  • Severe weather conditions.
  • Public transit delays.
  • Oversleeping.
  • Sickness/illness.

In other circumstances, where an employee has children, the employee may be late because of sick children, school bus delays, or difficulty obtaining daycare.

It is important as an employer to record, in writing, each time an employee is late for work and state the reasons in case the employee becomes habitually late for their shifts.."(Link)

How does one check for different disk partitions?  A: As shown in the video **** Applications: Create disk partition for Windows , Memory Dump , Data Corruption , Data Back up & Recovery ***** Relevant Background: " Disk partitioning  or  disk slicing [1]  is the creation of one or more regions on  secondary storage , so that each region can be managed separately.
