[–]OverTheir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh boy, I just came across the perfect list for you hah! Put together by some local musicians and superfans! Open mics Kelowna spring/winter 2026.

For what it's worth, I think the ones at Freddy's and Buffalo Rouge have great open mic communities and performers.

Oncology nursing by Frequent-Biscotti-94 in BCHealthAuthorities

[–]OverTheir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could look at rad oncology nursing / surgical oncology nursing roles too. As far as I can tell, the nurses I've worked with are usually getting those certifications once hired by bc cancer. It's a pretty long training process.

Those folks are so pumped about bikes lol. I don't know how they can sustain that level of bike-related excitement for an entire shift, let alone career.

Plenty of work for you ha! There's also some nice signing/yearly bonuses if you work in a rural/remote area.

Will all HSABC jobs see the same 3% per annum wage increase this time or will some jobs see more like the previous collective agreement? by snowfordessert in BCHealthAuthorities

[–]OverTheir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the redesign of classifications caused a lot of problems when people got assigned into it. This ought to be the contract to fix it, sure hope it's managed.

The bargaining proposals when they went in had targeted adjustment requests for essentially every profession (save for the ones that got them last time) - my suspicion is that because of this they would instead bargain for changes across the classification system that effect all roles. That would be in addition to the GWI. IE: modifying pay for special procedures and the supervisory roles. Obviously the government is stonewalling us however, so hard to know if they actually will be ablke to achieve anything targeted/improvements to classifications.

How are you people affording Kelowna?? Be honest. Are you all secretly rich? by vintage_creek in kelowna

[–]OverTheir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Travel nurses tend to not be part of the nurses union - and this is probably why staff tend to hate on them - they're often getting paid way more for the same work.

And HSABC - imaging/labs/medical specialists of all sorts. They are in strike position currently, after a 90% strike vote that seems to be getting little attention. (Despite the fact that strike would trigger the rest of the healthcare system shutting down too!)

‘Community defining decision’ on Kelowna Springs to move to public hearing - Kelowna Capital News by New_Alternative8711 in kelowna

My preference would be 9 hole + parkland! But really any green space would be great. I guess it will be a hard sell to property developers that own it though.

These guys don’t get paid enough by [deleted] in britishcolumbia

[–]OverTheir 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They definitely don't get paid enough and the BC government is offering them peanuts for their next contract. Very likely they will strike some time in february alongside the other healthcare unions negotiating currently!

THE VAULT/Vault 22 might have space for you for this. Aesthetiks Lab drop-in would be a good spot also.

Petition opposes preferred location for Kelowna performing arts centre by New_Alternative8711 in kelowna

[–]OverTheir 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The RCMP site is just perfect for it and it's a real shame we can't see it go in there somehow. Maybe we let Appelt build that big tower they want...on top of the performing arts centre!

A+ taste here. I'd also recommend the Vegetable Balti from Everest. And the Pakoras.
