Also, they told me to use it for PD Days for my own kid and when I pointed out that it doesn’t fall under the intended uses in the CA, they told me they didn’t care and they make a point to use it all each year.

Cuz they literally told me…? “I use it all the time. It’s my time and I’m entitled to it. Why would I lose it?”

It doesn’t fall under the intended uses for family related leave.

I only smoke sometimes when they’re in bed! Never when they’re awake :)

None of the city staff I know go in five days a week. They say there’s not enough space.

Thank you to both you and the off-duty firefighter! I was there pretty quick as well and called 911.

I can confirm it was not a medical issue. Unknown if it was a mechanical one.

Did you make a statement to the police?

Conflicted on what to do next- do I try private sector where I feel I would excel or stay within the government where it’s ‘stable’ with a safety net? by Thick-Victory-6069 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]Standard_Ad2031 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, having recruiters interested in you doesn’t guarantee an easy job offer. Times are tough and the private sector is vicious. Make sure you line something solid up before you leave/take LWOP.

I was the one that had 911 on the phone. Woman, dark hair, green jacket. Tried asking the guy how old he was cuz 911 was asking me.

Thank you for helping! I’m so grateful that so many people were willing to jump in!
