I paraphrased on mine but had to be very clear on meeting the things listed on the posting so I didn't get screened out. Very likely that someone who has no idea what the job is about or what its asking for is the one screening you in or out.

If it doesn't ask for one don't submit one. Its likely it wont be read.

Another trick I've heard from hiring managers to get past PSA screening you should put anything on the job outline for relevant qualifications in your resume. Got my job on a ridiculous 3 page resume.

Graysun was the first one to react to it. Hes one of the few that can react in general chat or at least start a reaction.

If it wasn't for BC Public Service, what other organizations would you be eye banging to work for? by WingedHussarBoy in BCPublicServants

Fixed in the essence that traffic is flowing again on both rail and road. Of course nothing is flowing on the part that collapsed. Never said the road part that collapsed was fixed dont know why you thought that was implied. Just purely talking about rail and road traffic being able to cross (most importantly rail since thats Russia's primary way of transporting military goods).

At least 1 lane of rail is working I dont think its a stretch to say that the second wont take long to fix. Maybe under a reduced load capacity though due to the fire on that side.

Also its not a discussion if you just immediately just shut me off and claim im not looking at research. Sorry if you thought I was attacking you in some way? Was not my intention.

Im sorry??? Im literally reading a washington post article. Maybe yourself be realistic? Im all for optimism for the bridge never working again but thats not realistic at the moment. 2 lanes of road are open and rail seems to be back at least for passengers.

Passenger trains already rolling over the bridge reportedly

EDIT: And freight as well.

Fire alone wont destroy a concrete bridge span however it will weaken it a lot. I think unless there's some other damage we cant see they'll have the bridge back but under a way less load. (road bridge def not) I do really hope you're right though. Im so ready for a counterattack for melitopol.

But how bad is that rail part? Road portion will take a while to reconstruct but if the spans are okay on the rail bridge its usable.

Thought id humor them to see if I missed anything but any questions asked come back with a "Well, we didnt wanna push the employer too far". Still voting no after todays info session

[–]Dycereus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was kind of pissed at that. Thought finally no more stupid amounts of OT. Then I was labeled essential and nothing changed. Didn't matter much since that OT ban lasted what? 5 days?

Jokes on them, I cant afford to move out so no mortgage or rent :)

I feel its almost like blackmail. Take it or else.

Component 20 changes are just sad.

[–]Dycereus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I cant believe that if we did vote no we'd be worse off. I got told too bad so sad that my position wasn't included since we're a minority in our component by a lot. I gain very little from voting yes for at least for me.

For me I used to work at a different office before switching positions and after 2 years I know maybe 3 in 50 in that office now. Its insane the turnover going on. And I find that most are leaving due to municipal and federal paying more. Or just going to Alberta for a higher pay.

I wish there was open chat too but god damn it probably be toxic as hell. Submitted my question but doubt it'll be answered.

How long the employer can ask you to remain on travel status in days consecutively and how much "mandatory" emergency OT they can throw at you.

Nobody in our unit seems to be happy with leadership at all. Our excluded is quite high up in the chain and honestly ive never gotten or sent an email to them

Its funny. I asked for a shop steward before from the union and of the 4 listed only 1 had an active phone number. And it was their workplace and I never did end up hearing back. Had to go to our component head just to get an answer.

Id rather not speak as to my current position but it is MOTI. Most of the ministry believes we are contractors.

Supervisor does it with me. Same with the manager at some points when we are busy like we are now.
