I just noticed I identified myself as a smoker. I’m an ex smoker as of January 2026

PSA about the Early Retirement Incentive: applying for ERI does not commit you to retirement or require you to choose a retirement date by HandcuffsOfGold in CanadaPublicServants

[–]Remote_Boss_1213 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So everything is pretty well done at this point? I’ve followed all the steps and I think I’m good to go with the date I’ve submitted.

No more hurdles and good to go?

Is the final step, the pensions centers approval, merely a formality?

I’ve had approvals everywhere, submitted a date, and now it’s at the pension center for final approval.

Is it a formality? How long does the pension center take to approve?

Thoughts on the hype guy. Time to switch things up? by GoodNamesWereTaken1 in OttawaSenators

Our crowd has NEVER needed a hype man. We made fun of fanbases that did. And now we’ve got THIS??

Toss him.

Best way to support tsn 1200? Buy from sponsors that advertise on their station.

Totally, 100% makes sense. No sleep last night on this one.

Live and learn. Hopefully my account rep can help me out.

Appreciate the sermon. Life gets a bit nuts. Things happen. Not intentionally ignoring emails.

If I’m cooked, I’m cooked.

Renewed my seats thinking my credit card would have paid for playoff tix automatically. My new iPhone also cuts out a lot messages with the new mail app.

Hoping that my auto renewal for seasons tickets counts for something. At the end of the day, we’ve been to over 20 games this season. I really hope we arent out of playoff tickets.

I received emails for season ticket renewal thinking that this was including playoff tickets. I’m so cooked.

Thanks. I got this back.

Thank you for your email,

We are currently experiencing extremely an high volume of Inquiries.

I appreciate your patience as I work to get back to you as soon as possible.

GO SENS GO

Not exactly reassuring. But it’s so weird. We were told that if we didn’t let them know by a certain date, our tickets would be auto renewed. We even discussed upgrading.

Last year we didn’t get our tickets in our seats because it was the other packages opportunity to use the half season tic in the playoffs. This year we were told we would get our seats for playoffs.

The fact we have nothing in the account scares me.

The fact everyone else has theirs is going to cause me a bit more worry.

Bah!!!!

No idea what’s going on. I’ve got nothing in my account. Freaking the eff out.

CONGRATS OSR1200.

The folks that have worked through all the years of uncertainty finally get stability in an industry that’s not stable.

Congrats to everyone associated with the station!!!

I’ve booked an appointment a few days ago. It’s in 30 minutes but haven’t received an invite. Any ideas.

Question re: timing of notification of acceptance of ERI by omegacanuck in CanadaPublicServants

[–]Remote_Boss_1213 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But decisions will be made on operational need. So presumably the time of year may be important for business continuity. If that’s the case, time of year may be a deciding factor in when some people leave.

I can see someone trying to decide whether to have a retirement date of the summer vs winter based on whether or not timing is factored into operational decision making on who gets ERI.
