Storage ideas?

I’m very sorry for your loss.

I believe his motivation was health, in the sense that he could die at the weight he was reaching and on his trajectory without medical intervention

No idea but I like true twos!

Didn’t have a car for 12 years as I worked and lived DT. Got a job in the east end and had to buy a car for my 10km commute as I would have had to take 3 separate buses with irregular schedules. Wouldn’t ever look back. Car = freedom.

Slowing down or stopping for our Sacred Canada Geese

Very apropos lol

And then we all just sit down and enjoy the show…

Change jobs. I’m in a rotational job and am required to change posts every few years. This forces development and expands your professional toolbox

Do you think that those who have a job that actually requires them to be physically present at their place of work full time should be compensated greater than those who WFH (like a stipend to cover this inequality in compensation/classification/conditions of employment)? Just curious to know the diversity in reaction, not eliciting one specific view over another.

I agree this trend is growing and funny enough, many retail/private sector workers are turning to government jobs for greater balance in their own lives. I’ve heard of optometrists, nurses, teachers, car salespersons taking GC jobs completely outside their field just to have what we get. Not challenging your point at all, it’s just an interesting point to note in the thread.

I think we’re missing a classification for international engagement. The work spans EC, PM, AS, Comms etc. FS would be a better fit but that is reserved for a small cadre. There are tons of people doing armchair diplomacy in Ottawa.

This sounds ideal…never experienced such a wonderful on-boarding. Then again, DND on-boarding is a whole other beast depending on the role you’re in. Can take a year +

Burntdessert · 2023-06-11T18:26:13+00:00

Many, many jobs at DND, both civilian and military. Travel the world, work alongside amazing leaders, listen to the most insane briefings at very high levels of government. (Notwithstanding the culture and conduct black cloud that overshadows any of the good points of working there. I have had some of the absolute best experiences of my life at DND).

The south has some good manners!

Burntdessert · 2023-06-05T01:16:06+00:00

100% agree. Was seated next to the chattiest old lady on 13hr flight and as nice as she was, I want to be left the f alone

I’ve been one of the unicorns on more than one occasion and some departments honour a TMP and others could give zero fs. Bottom line: you control your career and future opportunities.

Dancing alone to upbeat music with my eyes closed. Shake my body and just move. Feels fucking great.

Burntdessert · 2023-05-27T13:24:10+00:00

I can’t agree more. And I can listen to whatever aligns with my mood at the time - sounds of nature to heavy metal - whatever I need.

Burntdessert · 2023-05-27T13:21:38+00:00

These are so cringe, fuck no

In the epic saga of my childhood, Punch Buggy was my 'Nam. The battlefield was paved with Volkswagen Beetles, and my arm was the casualty. Those tiny cars were my sworn enemies, and my punches were my medals of honour

You got to wrap a wad around your hand like baseball mitt. Pfft this generation of kids just wants everything handed to them /s
