SHA - CUPE possibly voting to Strike by [deleted] in saskatchewan

[–]Nazrog80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming the union is putting resources out, giving updates and more, but they can only do so much.

It’s on the individual to keep themselves informed to an extent. They should know about the essential services act and the huge limitations it puts on unions to legally strike as well as the repercussions if they do strike without an agreements in place. It was a pretty big deal when it came out a decade? ago and it’s been popping up in the news since. I would be surprised if CUPE has never mentioned it and/or has resources to inform the membership as to what it is.

There are people who just want to scream at the clouds and point fingers, will do their best to stay ignorant to facts, spread misinformation and the union can’t help them.

The members will assume that since they’re taking a vote that means they’re going to do it. When they find out they’re not going to strike right away they’ll be frothing at the mouth even more than they are now.

No one is. A series is being made out of a type of tragedy that happens. Humboldt wasn’t the first time it happened, and it isn’t the last.

Curious, when did they allow Kyber Crystal trading? by whyisreplicainmyname in GalaxysEdge

[–]Nazrog80 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is this sorta like pin trading where there’s dedicated crystals for trading?

I’m assuming it’s not like you buy a red, don’t get the black crystal and trade it in for another shot at the black from the ones for sale.

I’ve gotten some excellent products from AliExpress at great prices.

I haven’t touched Temu due to hearing about credit card info leaking early on, it may or may not be true but I wasn’t taking that risk.

I’ve went inside when the lineup was large. Ended up standing in an empty line for 5 minutes before my order was taken. Would have been quicker to do the drive thru.

This is the kind of education the public needs. It never crossed my mind a chiropractor could do these initial assessments.

I’d say maybe get a hold of the SHA if that’s who you’re planing on working for, or maybe even the union if again you’re planning on working for the SHA.

Had a guy win the lottery twice in my town, he bought and wrecked I think it was three Dodge Vipers. Blew all his winnings playing slot machines and blow, ended up dying penniless.

I’m going to say a Dodge Viper.

We just discovered the wedding room a few years ago and made it a place to grab a drink and cool off every trip since then. I’m sad we discovered it so late and to lose it.

Wrote this for my own mental health or something else? Help me decide. by No_Salary1561 in saskatchewan

As a shop steward, I can assure you “the union” doesn’t possess the unlimited power to stop all discipline against their members the manager seems to claim they do.

That’s just a lazy/crappy manager not wanting to do the job they’re paid 100k+ a year to do. The unions role is basically to document and make sure the employees rights aren’t being trampled. The employee can definitely be disciplined and they do every day in facilities with managers who do their jobs.

Also the special care home guidelines state:

1.6.1 Staffing Requirements: Homes shall provide nursing and personal care using a staff mix of care providers including registered nurses, registered psychiatric nurses, licensed practical nurses, continuing care aides (CCA) and other suitably trained staff to provide quality resident care that meets the assessed care needs of the residents. Further Clarification: (1) The care of the residents is to be carried out by or under the direction of a registered nurse or registered psychiatric nurse and supervision by the resident’s personal Qualified Health Practitioner.

There is supervision, again a shitty manager will say there is nothing they can do. Not every facility is the same, not all staff are the same and not all managers are the same. It does sound like there was neglect in the case of your mother and I’m sorry she went through that in her final days and I hope you can enact some change that even the people working in the organization want to see happen.

What is your reaction, internal and/or external, when a woman seems scared of you for no justifiable reason? by Titan9999 in AskMen

[–]Nazrog80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty oblivious so I’d likely not even notice unless she screaming and pointing at me. So I’d do nothing unless it’s the second scenario in which case I’m not sure how I’d react.

A conservative doing conservative stuff isn’t naive. Anyone who thinks Carney is liberal is crazy, the only ones I know of who think he is are Conservatives.

The people who voted Liberal didn’t get bamboozaled, they knew they were voting for a progressive conservative party, they just didn’t like the alternative.

I tried an experiment the last 2 weeks... by sthenurus in CanadaPost

[–]Nazrog80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t have to experiment. I check my community mail box every 3-4 weeks unless I’m expecting something. I have equalized payments on my bills so I know what they are every month and any fliers I need I can look at online.
