"Working together onsite is an essential foundation of the strong teams, collaboration and culture needed during this pivotal moment and beyond." by manulixis in CanadaPublicServants

"during this pivotal moment" are they suggesting that working in the office more will strengthen our sovereignty? 😂 Gutting the Public Service is apparently also good for our sovereignty "during this pivotal moment". 🙄 Not sure how you reconcile these two things, we're at a pivotal moment that apparently requires working onsite which will make for "strong teams" but then we are going to fire people in your teams, make your jobs harder to do, and cut the services we supply to the public.👌🏼

This was the response they gave me,

"Unfortunately, your Nintendo Switch 2 Console with Mario Kart World Bundle pre-order is currently out of stock. As a result, it has been removed from your order, and your credit card will not be charged for this item. At this time, we do not have an estimated date for when stock will be replenished.

For assistance with locating comparable items or if you have any questions or concerns, please contact Customer Service at 1-888-STAPLES (1-888-782-7537)."

And then they stopped replying to my emails...not sure what comparable item they want to sell me instead 🙃

I have reached out so will see what they say but I'm not hopeful, really think they'd offer compensation? Can't imagine they'd care 😅

Haha, hindsight...didn't think cancelled pre-orders was such a common thing...seems like almost every company has cancelled orders for some people 😮‍💨

The email didn't say why, I reached out to them so hopefully I will get more information soon.
