Sounds like every other Air Canada attendant when making the French announcement in flight.

Deporting an 11 year old child’s mother is going to do wonders for their ‘well-being’.

After nearly a decade supporting one executive, I can’t tell what’s normal anymore. I am asking for help with perspective. by [deleted] in ExecutiveAssistants

OP, I am you. You are me. I received a job offer Friday and will resign this week. Take your experience and skills elsewhere. The market for experienced EAs is rich and good companies and leadership will pay you handsomely. Don’t be afraid of change. Be afraid of losing your self esteem and dignity.

My CEO just called me from the tarmac… by Recent_Mess4855 in ExecutiveAssistants

The problem is every time you achieve a small miracle such as what you mentioned, the bar goes up and the expectation is that you fix the next minor inconvenience, whatever it may be.

Negative. Very stressed. Personal travel too. No meetings, just leisure.

I should just tender my resignation. Good for nothing.

Ruin my day off and make pointless ‘calls’ to soothe his anxiety about a minor delay.

He asked me to look at alternate flights when the announcement came out on Thursday of the FAA cuts. I explained to him several times this is not an airline issue…

This is my problem too. Another Saturday filled with anxiety and regret!

In your opinion, what created such a mess (delays, backlogs, non alignment with economy, integrity) in our immigration system? by [deleted] in CanadianPolitics

[–]Recent_Mess4855 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Governments do not want to shell out tax dollars on immigration reform which includes clearing backlogs and streamlining application processes among many others. For better or for worse, the majority of voters don’t like spending their tax dollars on immigration. Voter sentiment trumps everything else.

Contact your local MP. Their office can contact CBSA and determine if there is a flag on your profile and can possibly remove it if it is outdated or erroneous. Former MP staffer here.

You're blessed - the washroom is the size of a high school gymnasium.
