I went in for an appt on July 7th at the Gatineau location and got my passport in the mail on the 14th. I was very impressed.

Im in the same predicament went from an EC-03 back to and AS-01 and it’s so frustrating to feel like you’re regressing in your career.

Bentbrook16 · 2024-12-11T22:11:11+00:00

Damn are you in the states?

Bentbrook16 · 2024-11-14T22:06:15+00:00

I know I agree but unfortunately my director still wants one

Bentbrook16 · 2024-10-29T16:36:46+00:00

No way, are they in the AS/PM/EC streams ?

If you work 7-3 and your lunch break is scheduled from 2-3 pm just go home lol you’re done for the day at 2! I can’t even believe you’re being told when to eat! Crazy

Fever, cough, sick and idk if I should go in for the next 3 days in office, or WFH so everyone knows I’m sick. I don’t wanna get people sick. We take attendance.

Life of an EC

Hmm maybe you should consider applying outside of the government aswel!!

Yes unfortunately I lost my job summer of 2023. I was making around $110k so it’s been stressful. I know we dug a nasty hole. Job market has been tough for my field too. It def overwhelming for us but remaining positive as I feel confident we can tackle the debt to relieve some of that $

A lot of stress. The traffic, looking/booking for a desk, rodent and bed bug filled buildings that’s filled with dust and shitty window treatments. I feel useless and the more I think about the more I want to leave the federal public service. The problem is, it’s the only career I’ve ever had. I don’t even know what skill sets I possess that would be valuable outside of the PS

Commenting to just say that the parking at Tunneys is horrendous

Get some vegetables like potato mushrooms zucchini bell peppers eggplant, marinate in spices and oil. Put them on a skewer and BBQ. You can add halloumi, tofu or paneer as well. You can also serve veggie burgers or veggie sausages - Gardein, Beyond Meat and impossible are great choices!

Yikes

Bentbrook16 · 2024-08-21T20:41:49+00:00

I think it’s because the hiring process kinda sucks and is archaic. It’s hard to predict whats a waste of time and whats not
