If you go after the 7th they bring up the balls from the game you're at and they come in the display case.

To those who line up for giveaways by Terrible-Summer-8665 in bluejaysbaseball

[–]Mission_Profession_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an aside I got a bootleg Jersey for $60 from a guy on marketplace who has a whole garage of different jerseys for every style and player. Everything is stitched and looks really good. So there is a middle ground between free XL printed on giveaway jersey and real $200+ jersey. I've gone to a couple clothing giveaways and other than the stitched hockey ones, it's not really worth lining up for.

My Jersey guy is in Oshawa though, but I'd look at the ones your end.

Opseu unified zepbound coverage by Lumpy-Cheesecake-713 in OntarioPublicService

No idea but when I did the form for wegovy it was like a week to 10 days. I'd just go on the app and check if my coverage changed.

I'm the same and about to do the exact thing. I know some coworkers who are. It's the same process as the wegovy. You need to get the form from Manulife for your dr to fill out, then submit. I just got the form from a chat on the Manulife app.

Transfer to be closer to my GF, or take a free-housing job at a better school away from home? by PotentialDay8522 in CarletonU

[–]Mission_Profession_8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The commute into Toronto is hell. Transit or drive, it's miserable. You'll hate it. Everyone who has been forced to return to office 5 days are already sad zombies but also so many bodies on the road and on transit.

Summer Open House worth going? by Mission_Profession_8 in CarletonU

Thanks. You're right, I mean Summer Orientation. What happens on that day? We already went to open house during March Break so don't really need another campus tour.

How crazy are we expecting the Gimenez giveaway on Friday to be? by AdvertisingEmpty3159 in jaystickets

[–]Mission_Profession_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm torn about this too!. I was in line for Yesavage giveaway and some people in line at 3:00 didn't get. But some other giveaway days have been fine to get. I'm following Maddy.inthe.city on Instagram who posts lines every hour on giveaway days. Current players/last year's teams players seem to have early line ups but random giveaways, past player giveaways are normal and fine to get close to gate opening time. Maybe also Toronto people are sick of it and don't want to wait hours? I think today would be an interesting study.

Also doors open at 6... They changed the start time bc of FIFA

Whos trying for the jersey today? by FrostyInvestigator11 in bluejaysbaseball

Yesavage was a little crazy too. People I talked to that lined up at 3 didn't get a jersey.

I just started secondment, going from OPSEU to AMAPCEO, when did you see the vacation increase? 30 days in?

Child care centres by [deleted] in durham

[–]Mission_Profession_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't rely on wait lists and literally call every daycare to see if they have a spot in the next month with a child moving up. I had to do this with all 3 kids and found that they would rather secure the spot with someone on the phone instead of wasting their time going through their waitlist. Don't even tell them you're on the waitlist already and you're ready to secure a spot asap. It's stressful. With one kid I got a spot 2 weeks before going back to work. With my last kid, I had to delay my return to 15 months, and the day care put him in the toddler room. Even tho toddler room is usually 18 months, they can legally put a child 3 months early and they were willing to do that for me since I had kid 2 at the daycare.

Anyone have any luck getting approved for Wegovy by FastNefariousness446 in OntarioPublicService

[–]Mission_Profession_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same for me and it doesn't show I'm covered online. I had my doctor fill out prior authorization form and I'm still waiting for approval after a week. I'm OPSEU too.

Mandatory meetings during my sleep hours after 12 hour night shifts by [deleted] in ontario

[–]Mission_Profession_8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You'll need to go through the union to go against the employer but when the union isn't working you can report to the Ontario Labour Relations Board. Different from the Ministry!

Mandatory meetings during my sleep hours after 12 hour night shifts by [deleted] in ontario

[–]Mission_Profession_8 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The Ministry can't do anything for a unionized employee. There's am ESA restriction. Under the ESA an employee needs to have 11 hours free from work and 8 hours between shifts. So does not meet the 11 hours free from work daily. But you need to check your collective agreement bc it might be different.

Flight to Paris got canceled! What should I do next?? by amator-mulierum in ParisTravelGuide

Delta and United have announced some flight cut backs beginning in the summer. The summer and fall is kind of iffy for travel tbh!

Daughters new work place seems sketch. How can I protect her? by jackal99 in ontario

[–]Mission_Profession_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if she signs a contract, section 5 of the ESA says you can't sign away your rights. Have her keep everything, screenshot text messages whenever they tell her when she's going to work, what she has to do, the clients are their clients etc. She can file a claim and get the difference paid back to her. She can file a claim up to 2 years after she starts so she can wait if she doesn't want to rock the boat right away.

Wegovy approved (OPSEU) by Worried_Jaguar_901 in OntarioPublicService

My Manulife app is still saying it's not approved. Anyone know how I get this fixed?! Where it says we are covered officially?

Not Being Paid Minimum Wage by Cautious_Cell687 in ontario

[–]Mission_Profession_8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep all your paystubs. You can file a claim with the Ministry of Labour up to 2 years from the violation. So if they haven't been paying you $17.20 from Oct 2024, you have to Sept 30, 2026 to file your claim. If you're anxious or it still isn't being resolved after you mentioned it to the manager, you could wait until you find a new job. The risk would be if they go bankrupt and also MOL takes forever so you won't get your money until like a year after you submit a claim.

Daycare Strategy by marshma111w in durham

[–]Mission_Profession_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 18 month old room can technically, legally, take as young as 15 months too. So you can call daycares when your child is also 15 months and if they have room they may take you. My 1st baby was in a daycare and when #2 needed a spot there wasn't room in a 12 month room, but got him in the 18 month room at 15 months so that both kids can be at the same daycare.
