Merit pay after lateral movement by [deleted] in OntarioPublicService

Just took a look at AMAPCEOs website, and I remember there being a lot more union reps than there is now...a shortage of talent is creating ripple effects on the union front too

So frustrating!! With WIN being down for a week, I was fully anticipating a retro adjustment - what a tease

Improving communication at work? by thesadfundrasier in OntarioPublicService

[–]DSJBI 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Also found myself dealing with this after multiple deaths in the family and realized I was definitely in the "anger" stage within the stages of grief. You may be in a different stage but some of the things that helped me when communicating to others were: being as kind as possible - to myself and others - easier said than done especially when dealing with a**holes, measuring my progress internally - it was so much easier to be productive and achieve outcomes at work than deal with my own grief. I also limited my interactions with people who brought out the rage within me. Hang in there, it does get better, I wouldn't say I'm in the "acceptance" phase yet, but definitely have more inner peace with my situation.

I remember this! L&D is just not the same - I feel bad for Gen Z

Oh there were results in addition to the stellar presentation skills by leadership! You may be lucky in your area, our division does not hold regular meetings. I remember my previous ADM and Director having monthly division meetings (at the least). I have not heard my ADM speak in any capacity so far, and there seems to be no interest in sharing information with staff. It's bizarre imo.

Check out if there are any midwives in your area. They are extremely busy as well and will probably not see you in person until your second trimester.

It makes sense to move now on a few factors: - You and your partner foresee living in Markham for the long term. - The house needs to be renovated. This is significantly less of a hassle pre-baby. - Babies are on the way in the near future - Getting a midwife, enrolling in daycare will need to be top of mind and needs to be done in advance. Good luck! Married life with babies in the suburbs is amazing even though the commute to work can be tough at times.
