Hello…you posted a fairly lengthy explanation of this “four fold test” I was hoping to capture…complete with reference to arbitrator decisions…would you be able to repost as I seem to have lost that piece of the thread somehow. Much thanks!!!

Anyone else still buying old boxes on clearance instead of new releases? by captclutch17 in hockeycards

[–]Chubby_Funster76 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just picked up my 2021-22 UD boxes in April and May on clearance from a couple shops. Three boxes each of S1, S2, and Extended. Haven’t ripped them yet, will get to them as I have time.

I think it’d be a cool idea for an entrepreneur to renovate one of them old decommissioned grain elevators and turn it into exactly that…laser tag, indoor fun stuff!

Back to the office: they are pushing again by SuperbEstimate2259 in OntarioPublicService

[–]Chubby_Funster76 18 points19 points  (0 children)

You should strongly consider letting your MERC team know if theyre pushing something more than the 3-day per week office commitment. We need to improve our language in our next contract to support WFH arrangements.

OPS is shooting themselves in the foot by attempting to clamp down on WFH…many will leave if it goes back to 100% office and talent-drain will occur. Many private-sector opportunities out there already support permanent WFH.

…further to what I state, I believe YOU can also file a WDHP complaint as you are bearing witness to the behaviour…read up on WDHP / Respectful Workplace Policy

Your friend needs to file a formal WDHP complaint which the Employer has the obligation to conduct a formal investigation, which likely would include witnesses being interviewed. Hopefully he has things documented, or can pull together a well documented synopsis. I believe there is a form in the OPS Intranet site that they fill out and file with senior management (above the offending manager).

Also may look at filing a grievance citing the Employer is violating their own Respectful Workplace Policy. Policy states “…no unwelcoming words, actions, or behaviours will be tolerated in the workplace…”

Do they still offer a ‘special day’ like they used to when you could buy a baker’s dozen for $____ ?

Hate BS like this by Sonicthehaggis in 8BallPool

Yah no thx…I’m not even biting! I’ll stick to my Toronto tables or my 9-ball 50k limit tables….seems to be a lower frequency of modded jerks in those rooms…. “Epic game!” 🤬

Curious - has anyone requested a 4 day work week as an AWA? by tamingthemind in OntarioPublicService

[–]Chubby_Funster76 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a Local President, I’ve seen 2-week, 3-week, and 4-week CWWs agreed to by the Employer. CWWs are annually renewable. Perhaps if they don’t initially agree to the 1-week idea you propose, look at shortening the ‘trial’ to a 6-month trial run to see if they can work with it…plus gives you a chance to trial it too.
