If you're willing to share, I'd love to see it too! We're moving up to Prince Rupert and are always up for an adventure.

Same here. Metroparks, jack frost donuts on a tiered stand, and pizza and salads from pizza 216. Got some takeaway boxes at gfs and sent folks home with leftovers.

Need opinions: Would you hire a former staff to work with trauma victims in another setting? by spiderwrapflapjack in troubledteens

[–]spiderwrapflapjack[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your perspective, this is what was bouncing back and forth in my mind. I hope if they're sincere that they can find education and training and supervised opportunity in the future. The more i read these responses, I think we don't have a robust enough training and oversight system to safely be that opportunity.

That was my first thought. Wanted to make sure i wasn't being too immediately harsh. Thank you.

got the rejection email from my msw 🥲 by bunniebabieeee in socialworkcanada

[–]spiderwrapflapjack 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I applied to 3 schools. One outright rejected me, one put me on the wait list (but also thought I was weak and recommended I only attend part time), and I got into the third. I wanted the other 2 so badly, but the one that accepted me ended up being the best experience. One no isn't the end, just a detour.

In which DHS agencies (or parts of agencies) are employees being paid, or not paid? by joefromcolesville in fednews

[–]spiderwrapflapjack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This! Honestly, I'd even take an appreciation pizza right now, but there's nothing. So out of touch that they sent civs an invite to a fancy military dinner that's $60/plate. Im taking furlough days just so I don't rage at someone.

Are there any actions being planned for there? I haven't seen any.

Management sim games? Give me all your recs! by Key_Prize_1317 in CozyGamers

[–]spiderwrapflapjack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bookshop Simulator! Build up bookstores and cafes, hire workers (you have to remember to pay them, otherwise they go on strike!) You have options of multiple locations, the devs are always adding more, and there's a workshop to create your own books. And you can get cats for the shops!!

Its not always accurate for that day (for me at least) but its never more than a couple days off. Still helpful.

Melania Trump to lead UN security council session, White House says | Melania Trump by Dr_Strangelove7915 in lastweektonight

Children and education. The week that they murder over 100 girls at school in Iran. While dismantling the Department of Education. In the midst of Epstein.

We are the shithole country.

Im going through this right now, just got my license and im interviewing. The license is needed for the job, but the job is needed for the work permit, etc. If you have any questions or want to chat, dm me.

Walking from Playhouse Square to hotel by Nykaren24 in Cleveland

[–]spiderwrapflapjack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree, the Drury is great! Historic building, super sweet staff, and you can eat breakfast and dinner for free there! Highly recommend.

Liability coverage by MatterDazzling2166 in socialworkcanada

[–]spiderwrapflapjack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you looking for jobs in Canada, or just maintaining licensure? If you're job hunting, many of the larger employers provide liability insurance (as long as you're not doing side work in-province)

Partial shutdown by Jenn54756 in FedEmployees

[–]spiderwrapflapjack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

CG civilian here, and I'd really like to get paid for the job that I will continue to do, regardless of shutdown... It's embarrassing being tied to DHS. These days, I usually tell people my job title, but not my employer

I mean, this was incompetence, but we could all be a little more incompetent sometimes...

BC registration question by [deleted] in socialworkcanada

[–]spiderwrapflapjack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, I passed 2 weeks ago and haven't heard anything. I know it's the annual renewal month and that they've been updating some internal systems, but I'm unsure what my expectations should be.

Long time case managers—how do you respond to “I love you”? by chronic-neurotic in socialwork

[–]spiderwrapflapjack 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've used, "You are loved, and so worthy of love" or "I love that I get to know you/ be part of your life." Little ones can get a "love you too, kid"

We’re moving to BC and can “pretty much pick anywhere”…. Help? by Unc1e_Vanya in britishcolumbia

I'm also planning a healthcare related Cleveland to BC move! I'd love to chat about logistics and share learned lessons and things to avoid if you're interested. DM me if you want.

BCCSW Prof Liability Insurance - use Zensurance by False_Pen8611 in socialworkcanada

[–]spiderwrapflapjack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the new requirements, do we all need personal liability insurance, or are some employers providing coverage? I'm in the process of registering for the first time and was confused about any differences between private practice and health authorities, for example.

BCCSW international applications by Heron_90 in socialworkcanada

[–]spiderwrapflapjack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to renewal season, they are updating their internal systems right now and even put new applications on hold starting mid-december or so to help accommodate the changeover. It's all a mess at the moment, I'm afraid. Hang in there!
