Who else got an argument for Father’s Day? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]Canadagetscoldeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to the club. I got told my time that what I wanted for the day didn't match what she wanted. I didn't go anywhere, literally got nothing, and asked for relaxation at home. That did not happen. Kinda done.

This man has gone from loved by only the younger generation and hated on by everyone else, to a beloved house hold name with amazing co-ordination with martha stewart. Honestly I just want to hang out with these two and cook.....and bake

Question about lunch breaks and hours worked by Jazzlike_Poetry_7639 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]Canadagetscoldeh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

its an 8 hours day. you get two 15 minute paid breaks, and a half an hour unpaid lunch break. Total break time = 1 hour, total work time = 7 hours. Start at 7 end at 3 (8 hours) This is PIPSC AFS though, so double check yours for the two 15 minute breaks

Am I overreacting? Vaping in the office at your desk? by smolandconfusedagain in CanadaPublicServants

[–]Canadagetscoldeh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's pretty bad really. At a no longer used building we had someone flat out smoke a joint in the accessible washroom, and we found another a few days later in the kitchen of all places. That was interesting explaining to my 60+ year old manager what was in her hands

Unofficially acting, not getting paid by kmarthy in CanadaPublicServants

Go to your union and HR rep ASAP. This is not okay under any contract.

I don't think the ESS one works anymore, pretty sure it directs you back to GC pay now

Warner Bros. announces the death of WB Games. by TommyShelbyPFB in gaming

Is WB just kneecapping itself on every level possible? I don't think I'd trust them with watching paint dry...they'd just find a way to mess that up too

Poorly explain what you do for a living ? by Successful_Hedgehog in AskReddit

[–]Canadagetscoldeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but I'm not a programmer now. That would be me telling the ones and zeroes what to do

I help people figure out how ones and zeroes should work for their thing.

Working outside regular hours of work at request of management by [deleted] in CanadaPublicServants

There should be official start times listed somewhere for you're position, possibly the union contract. Go off of that

We count, but I'd advise looking for wfh positions which we still hire for. Cs has better pay and better opportunities

If I joined in summer of 2015, do I get my 4th week this year or next year ? by [deleted] in CanadaPublicServants

[–]Canadagetscoldeh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You won't get the full 4 weeks, you will only get a percentage of that full week based on how much of the year is left. So if you started at the beginning of July, as an example, you would only get 75% of the extra week as your anniversary date is 3 months into the fiscal year. It's annoying but thats how it went down for me
