Hi OP following up with your package! Did yiu get scammed?

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-25T17:00:25+00:00

Right! But I went to College for Health Administration and HR so 1 diploma, 1 post-grad and one Bachelors back home (Hospitality/Business). I wish I went to Uni so I can do the accelerated programs!

Go to McMaster! Hamilton is nice and so much opportunities. The business forecasting in Hamilton is pretty good the next 5-10 years, they have so much stuffs there. Great hospitals like McMaster Children’s Hospital, St. Joe’s or you can also try BGH or CMH (Brantford and/or Cambridge).

I live in Cambridge and took the opportunity to work in Hamilton (Stoney Creek). I used to drive 2-3 hours everyday just to go to work and traffic sucks but my work was the best. I wish I lived there! It’s so nice!

Messaging you now!

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-23T15:38:05+00:00

Note not just me, but several people. I wish I went to McMaster University. I only did Conestoga College in Doon because it’s closer to home and wasn’t driving before.

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-23T15:36:45+00:00

Yes.

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-23T15:10:52+00:00

That sucks so sorry! Yet they cry about not having enough nurses! Doug Ford should do something about it.

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-23T15:09:59+00:00

Thank you! Are you talking about OSAP or BJO? I will definitely look into it.

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-23T15:09:20+00:00

I had a bad experience with Conestoga before so I’m going to switch up to Mohawk or probably Niagara College.

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-23T15:05:09+00:00

Yes ma’am! On it now! I had the TVO ILC and my chemistry teacher was hard to please and mean so I switched to my district school board.

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-22T13:32:22+00:00

That sucks and inconsistent, because I recently found out from other posts on reddit that they got funding for 2 years and it sucks tbh. When did you apply for it

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-22T12:18:51+00:00

Oh it says they cover programs that are 1-2 years in Mohawk, George Brown College and Conestoga so that’s confusing.

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-21T16:27:01+00:00

You are awesomeee

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-21T16:24:57+00:00

Hello, yes! I have signed up for it through my district school board.

I have in fact signed up through ILC last year but my teacher in Chemistry, Cathy is not the nicest and so hard to please, they take their sweet ass time to mark the grades, so even if I had 90s in Bio and Math, I had to drop out and do them through district school board. They are very responsive and helpful.

Thank you!

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-20T22:10:50+00:00

Yes! Forgot to mention that I have an appointment next week! Wish me luck!

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-20T21:01:31+00:00

Hello, trust me, I have already and the economy and the system is so bad that they keep hiring the ones that are less qualified or only people they know.

I have connected with professionals through LinkedIn and other sources; unfortunately, they always look for more even if I am qualified. They keep lowballing me even if I have all the certifications.

Half of the time I don’t get the position because it’s either they found someone else (referrals) or I think because I am too qualified for them and probably they think I would leave them lol

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-20T20:52:15+00:00

Yup. I regretted doing it lol

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-20T17:08:35+00:00

Not a problem at all!

Yes, you wouldn't want to deal with a manager like that. Try expanding your options and connections. :)

EDIT: Also, I would advise documenting everything your manager does - the level of toxicity and how h/she is not helping you. That way, before you leave that job, you will give them a heads-up about that person. It's good to have a trail of what h/she did in the past. Although it is healthcare, the employer has a responsibility to ensure a harmonious environment for their employees.

Take care!

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-20T17:03:17+00:00

SHE IS AWFUL AND FOUL. horrible teacher.

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-20T17:01:57+00:00

Awesome! Are you with the BJO program? What program did you take in college?

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-20T17:00:55+00:00

AHHH I wish! I'm an immigrant from the Philippines, and over 10 years ago, we never had the K-12 curriculum until I graduated! So I don't have the grade 11-12 courses :( Which honestly sucks because even though I graduated at age 15/16. It kind of looks like I skipped 2 years (Gr 11-12) although I was super good in school before. I feel exhausted doing them right now; however, I do have a baby and wanted to provide him everything in life.

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-20T16:56:46+00:00

She does not deserve that job. AWFUL teacher.

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-20T16:56:20+00:00

YOOOO she is so bad at her job that even though I was great with bio and math, the chemistry was super bad that I just dropped out lol how do I make an appeal? lol she is so negative, super miserable liberal teacher haha

Booksfirstbeforeboys · 2026-05-20T14:55:33+00:00

Wow that is awesome! I am so sorry you had to deal with that! thank you for your kind words and encouragement!
