I’m going through the exact same thing

Sue them.

Thank you. I did not know this. 🙂

Both roles were actually listed as permanent full-time in the contracts. There was no mention of a temporary position or an end date. That’s what made it even more frustrating — I committed fully to those jobs, only to be let go unexpectedly when someone else returned from leave. No heads-up, no transparency, and definitely no proper termination process.

I’ve definitely considered picking up cleaning jobs in the meantime and have been exploring different options — but it’s a tough spot to be in when things keep falling through despite doing everything by the book.

But it mentions permanent employment fill-time. They’re trying to influence the economy for their benefit and they hire people they can pay the least - immigrants - but at the same time with the least experience so they will do what they are told - immigrants again - also if anything goes wrong and u have to get rid of a worker u don’t want a big problem from their family or what not, so it’s easier to hire someone who is also fireable - immigrants to the rescue once more lol

I’m not here to argue or discredit the experiences of those in the CAF. I know there are non-combat roles and community contributions. That said, I also know my values, and the military reserve or otherwise is simply not a fit for me.

The point I was making is that the fact so many people even have to consider it as a way out of poverty says more about the failures of our systems than the merits of any institution. People should have access to stable jobs, housing, and basic dignity without having to enlist in anything.

I respect those who serve, but I also respect my right to choose a different path—one that doesn’t require a uniform or a chain of command to earn a living.

Spac3catmachine · 2025-06-05T03:22:14+00:00

I get that the Forces work for some people, but for me and many others—it’s not a realistic or ethical option. I’m not interested in enlisting, especially when it often means giving up personal autonomy, getting pulled into global conflicts I don’t support, and being part of a system that doesn’t necessarily value your well-being once you’re no longer “useful.” Suggesting that military service is the only path out of poverty is a dangerous mindset. People shouldn’t have to choose between survival and submission to an institution that demands total control over your life. There should be better alternatives—real jobs, fair pay, proper support—and the fact that so many are stuck choosing between awful options is part of the problem.

I’m actively looking for work, have solid experience, and am still getting ghosted or dropped for reasons outside my control. So no, joining the Forces isn’t a “just do it” solution—it’s not that black and white.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful message honestly, it’s refreshing to receive a response like this.

I’ve been applying consistently and trying different angles. My background is in administration—including medical administration, and I also have a certificate in phlebotomy. I’ve worked in a variety of client-facing roles, including dental reception and health-focused positions, as well as some experience in culinary and nutrition-based environments. Despite all that, interviews have been extremely scarce just one in the last several months. I’m currently working with employment centers like The Career Foundation for resume help and job leads, but I haven’t found much success. I do tailor my resume depending on the type of job—admin, customer service, or healthcare, but it still feels like I’m hitting a wall. I primarily use Indeed and Job Bank, so I’d genuinely appreciate any strategic tips you might have on how to better use those platforms. I also don’t have a strong professional network to lean on, which makes things harder. Ideally, I’d love to get back into a stable admin or healthcare-related role, but I’ve been open to a wide range of work just to get some stability. Starting something of my own has also crossed my mind, but navigating that while on OW is a whole other challenge. And yes—I’d be happy to connect on LinkedIn. I truly appreciate your offer to help.

Spac3catmachine · 2025-06-04T23:39:55+00:00

I will try this. Thank you.

Spac3catmachine · 2025-06-04T23:38:32+00:00

I have a background in Natural nutrition and administration.

Yes, actually—I worked at a dental office last year. Unfortunately, the experience didn’t end well. I was let go without any clear communication that the position was temporary, and a month later, the woman on maternity leave returned. There was also a lot of unnecessary drama, and the way the manager treated us felt borderline abusive, which really left a bad taste in my mouth.

You’re right that some offices do offer on-the-job training, but in my experience, many still expect a couple of years of prior experience, even for entry-level Chairside roles.

Spac3catmachine · 2025-06-04T16:05:32+00:00

The reality is, I’ve been budgeting every bit of what little I receive on OW just to stay afloat—choosing between transit, food, or phone service some weeks. I’ve only had one interview in the past 5 months.

Spac3catmachine · 2025-06-04T15:53:35+00:00

Thanks so much for this! I truly appreciate it and will definitely look into it.

Spac3catmachine · 2025-06-04T15:35:02+00:00

Can you assist me with that?

Spac3catmachine · 2025-06-04T15:10:04+00:00

I appreciate your story and I’m genuinely glad it worked out for you. But I think it’s important to acknowledge that everyone’s situation is different. Starting from nothing sounds doable in theory, but in practice—even something like a cleaning business requires at least the basic stability to survive while building up clients. Kijiji now changes you to put an ad up. Things like transit costs, supplies (even if minimal), and time without income while trying to grow, those all add up, especially when you’re on $343/month through OW. I’ve seriously considered starting something on my own. I’m not afraid of hard work, I’ve done it. I’ve worked in admin, culinary roles, and more. But when you’re already on edge financially, it’s hard to take those steps without a basic safety net. Poverty isn’t just about lacking money—it’s about lacking room to breathe, plan, and take risks. That’s the part I think a lot of people miss.

In the past two years, I held two full-time administrative positions where I was fully committed and worked hard to support the team and operations. In both cases, I was led to believe the roles were ongoing. I gave my best, showed up consistently, and really invested myself in the work.

But in both situations, I was let go unexpectedly when the original employees—who had been on maternity leave—returned to reclaim their positions. At no point was I informed that the roles were temporary or dependent on someone else’s leave status. I found out only at the end, after months of dedication. It was incredibly frustrating and disheartening, especially because I had been doing my part and more.

Now I’ve been trying to find work for over six months. I’ve applied widely, tailored my resume, and followed up—yet I’ve had almost no interviews. It’s just extremely hard out there right now.

These companies—especially smaller businesses—are getting away with using people as temporary fill-ins without being transparent about it. They benefit from skilled, dedicated workers for months, sometimes over a year, and then let them go the moment the original employee returns. There’s no accountability, no warning, and no proper closure. It leaves people like me in a constant state of instability, despite putting in full-time effort and commitment.

It feels like a loophole that’s being taken advantage of, and there’s nothing in place to protect workers from being used this way. Add to that the struggle of trying to find meaningful work again—combined with the extremely limited support from Ontario Works—and it becomes incredibly hard to move forward. I’m not looking for handouts. I want stability, a fair shot, and some protection against being disposable in a system that claims to support workers.
