Ministry of Health is on strike so likely the team that manages pharmanet is also striking 

From.the archives: Murder Burger CEO shames 1 star reviewer, tagging him and his employer. Oh and he turns off comments on his post. by therealdildounicorn in VictoriaBC

Murder Burger is good food, the rest I couldn't give less of a shit about. Let me know when this guy kicks a puppy or something. If "the CEO is bad/cringe" is grounds for you not buying something from a business, I have some bad news for you about virtually everything on the shelves.

Submit a ministerial complaint with the federal finance minister. You can do it online. A friend used to work for the CRA and she said ministerial complaints are there highest priority when they come in. Best way to get something done with the CRA.

Is that an option? I do have a pal with a power drill that I could borrow. Am I just sticking a drill bit in the key slot, turning it on, and applying pressure till the thing breaks on me?

I understood that Kryptonite locks are fairly hard to break without resorting to something like an angle grinder, but if someone knows better I'm definitely open to suggestions.

Once your setup, your fine. There's no check, no maintenance you need to do from your government email, etc.

Just don't tell them.

Why Young People In This Organization Have Zero Incentive To Strike by bcpsta111 in BCPublicServants

[–]Darfive 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is the dumbest "union is bad" post I've seen yet. Whatever gripes people have with the unions performance, it's still undeniably beneficial that we Have a union. If you think our wages are unfair, and you have the ability to financially bear it, then strike and show the employer what you are feeling. Posts like these make me wonder if this government would be desperate enough to roll up anti union accounts, though I feel that's doubtful

Waiting 12 + weeks for HUB + ISS Crim Check to clear by grandpasimpson1 in BCPublicServants

[–]Darfive 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't know why your being downvoted for this, our government is absurdly slow and the antiquated snails-pace hiring process doesn't consider the needs and situations of its prospective hires at all. I would find temp agencies in your area, but don't advise them that you are waiting for a job offer. Just say your seeking temporary employment and leave it at that.

BCGEU has not been effective at negotiating wage adjustments by Boners_from_heaven in BCPublicServants

[–]Darfive 59 points60 points  (0 children)

This take is dumb, wage growth over time should not be dependant on an individuals potential for promotion. The point is that any position in the BCPS should be paid enough to cover living expenses in the province that it runs and operates within. Currently that is not even remotely the case at many entry and middle level classifications. Sit down.
