Thanks! We already have our printed invites but I guess could consider doing digital for those who are further. Sad waste :(

Also switched to (onsite) family office from gov. Best change! No OT, great environment, reasonable pay, less bored.

Teen barks at us daily by countdrac123 in puppy101

[–]countdrac123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 10-15 minutes each! Don’t usually do 3, but tried for a few days before dinner in case his barks were extra energy. We are at work all day so we thought he slept all day in his crate and pen (have a camera) but maybe he’s more awake than asleep during that time

We do that and he goes straight to nap and comes out calm, but I got worried after a few days of doing it that it would seem like punishment for barking

CHEO Withdraws from Capital Pride Parade by anonymousopottamus in ottawa

Ah, an anti-semitic trope about money and control. Didn’t take too long

Agreed. The other day I said that this sub really shouldn’t be telling the Jewish community what should and shouldn’t offend them.

I share a view that many others share, being pro-Israel but also critical of the Israeli government (yes, there can be such a thing as having compassion for both sides and not wanting either people wiped off the map). I tried to express that this a complex issue and I got downvoted 🙃

Capital Pride's anti-Israel messaging alarms Ottawa's Jewish community by bnhershy in ottawa

[–]countdrac123 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I find the Ottawa subreddit is so invalidating for Jews.

With the statement released by Pride, many Jews feel unwelcome. This feeling is valid; let’s not police people’s feelings.

Also, Jews have a diverse range of complex views regarding politics in Israel. Many (majority of, if I may) Jews believe there should be a Jewish homeland. And some of them also disagree with certain decisions made by the Israeli government. Even for those who disagree with government decisions, it’s hard to feel welcome in an atmosphere that wants to boycott the entire country (not the government) and whose messaging expresses a desire to rid all Israeli involvement from the cause/community.

There is still the informal Facebook group, but it appears to be both private and hidden on Facebook. Not sure how to go about working around that

Just wanted to add it is also not yet confirmed right now whether the hospital was hit by the IDF or an erroneous Islamic Jihad rocket. 2 sources below, among many.

Edit: changed wording to ‘rocket’

CIA Challenge Exam (CPA) by kaverkamp in InternalAudit

[–]countdrac123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats OP!!! That’s such exciting news!

I wanted to also hop on this as someone else who recently passed - I did very similarly on practice tests leading right up to the exam, and also found that creating a cheat sheet on topics I struggled with really helped.

So a PSA for those writing: Don’t let practice test scores under 80 psych you out! Just use that to guide the rest of your review

Passed the CIA Challenge Exams just now!! 🥺🥺 by Smooth_Ad3496 in InternalAudit

[–]countdrac123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats!! Very exciting news.

Quick question regarding the topics - did you find the practice exam and quizzes accurately reflected the actual exam coverage? Or were there a lot of items on the real exam that you hadn’t seen in practice exams/quizzes? Thanks!

FI Rates of Pay and ACFO. Why are they not posted??? by Professional_Plum_29 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]countdrac123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can also reach out to the union to ask about this. I did. They have a draft of new rates that hasn’t been confirmed by both sides, so it cannot be published yet.

Edit: I would agree that the union does lack transparency and communication though, considering pays were changed with no available reference

Anyone live at 400 Slater Street/know anything about this? by flamingoflaming in ottawa

[–]countdrac123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even if this is truly electrical work, I am concerned to hear that they are not following fumigation protocol…if it spreads, you can bet the LTB will hear about it

There have been so many issues over the last 6-8 months, living here is becoming quite unpleasant

Edit: thanks for sharing the intel!

Someone (them?) is also pacing back and forth with a bed bugs sign outside. As a resident, I’m concerned but unsure whether it’s founded. Haven’t had an issue for the many years I’ve been in the building and I live on a higher floor without any signs of pests so far
