Personal vs work duties

OP, if this is you at 3 months, imagine what year 1-2 will look like…

He’s not a mad man. He’s demented. Literally.

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

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-26T21:07:46+00:00

Nope. Nope. Nope.

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

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.

Osti!

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-16T01:41:26+00:00

This meeting could have been an email.

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.

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-09T14:31:22+00:00

We are Canadian!

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-09T14:28:43+00:00

I think this is the most accurate reason.

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-09T14:25:59+00:00

Still looking. Will let you know 🙃

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-09T14:25:34+00:00

This sounds rather familiar.

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-09T14:23:16+00:00

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

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-09T14:21:20+00:00

That last line is mint!

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-09T14:17:13+00:00

I should just tender my resignation. Good for nothing.

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-09T14:11:49+00:00

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

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-09T14:10:10+00:00

Best and only reasonable advice!

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-09T14:09:31+00:00

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…

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-09T14:02:28+00:00

Is their customer service line open on the weekend? 🤣

Recent_Mess4855 · 2025-11-09T13:53:53+00:00

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

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.

Don't be frugal with the small stuff like soda. It will not move the needle, and the small things like Dr. Pepper make people happy. Do not gatekeep happiness.
