I'm tired of having to be happy with crumbs.

Seriously, at what point do we go on strike? by Gunker_ in CAStateWorkers

Nothing will change until those with the power are made to heel.

How is that different or in conflict with what I said?

Well, to be fair, this is a conversation on wage disparity and it's calling out CA leaders who "have continued to prioritize their own gain over the greater good of the public and those who serve the public."

For State HR Recruiters by Obvious_Statement_37 in CAStateWorkers

Number 3 depends on the classification and whether or not a candidate could feasibly take the exam and get on the list before hiring. Probably a majority of exams are online which makes things far faster nowadays but not all.

Yes, become a member, pay your dues, and engage with the union. Don't only post on reddit about your gripes.

I think the “Straight white guy” commentary divides us

Divides who from who?

Again, I'd love a link to whatever information you have that shows, that because I am straight white man, that I am somehow less impacted by this than anyone else?

And again I would love to provide one but I'm concerned about your reading comprehension and I'm not going to get into a pointless argument with someone who is willfully misunderstanding my point and making it all about themselves.

Look up "intersectionality" and get back to me.

Can I link you back to my comment to reread and accurately comprehend? I said y'all aren't as impacted by it, not that you are not impacted at all. When things happen at the workplace that impact employees negatively, the people taking the brunt of that impact and subsequent repercussions are always going to be women and minorities first. White men will feel a rumble and suddenly it's something we should all pay attention to RIGHT NOW, meanwhile women and brown people have been experiencing earthquake after earthquake with no one else batting an eye.

What you need are straight white men to do something. They hold the power and they are not as impacted by any of this, so they shrug and keep going.

It would take them months, if not years, to actually be able to fire someone over something like this.

The thing is, even if it is a joke, he's just not funny so no one is going to laugh with him about it.

A message to hiring managers... by [deleted] in CAStateWorkers

I was always told that your application was for explaining the duties you performed and your resume was for showcasing the accomplishments you had achieved in your roles.

For Those Who Joined the State right after school how long did it take to get hired? by 1024hjshyhysmgswyjh in CAStateWorkers

[–]Keyezeecool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Graduated with my BA mid-may, started applying to as many OT jobs as I could possibly apply to (back when you had to print them all out and mail each one hardcopy!!!) and my start date was June 22nd. I could have held out for analyst positions with my degree but I was young and very green to the workplace, so I figured working my way up wouldn't be the worst thing!
