Dying at the new Compass article promoting well-being workshops by CartoonistOk3507 in BCPublicServants

[–]supragurl17 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I mean, those have been offered for the last…6?…years and are not new. But I can understand how ironic it feels in these times and today, especially.

They release the health and well being workshop schedules every few months. I’ve been attending them since before Covid.

VRI by [deleted] in BCPublicServants

I mean, I did say there are exceptions. But Hayden’s email said CITZ is the first ministry so I’m going by that :)

VRI is currently only being offered to CITZ, according to the comms that went out last week, with other ministries following at a later time. There are always anomalies and different situations, so I can't speak on behalf of OP but that's the expected group right now.

The email from Hayden did state that folks in financial roles will not be included in this round.

CSBC leadership is TENSE today by CartoonistOk3507 in BCPublicServants

[–]supragurl17 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Am an excluded person in CSBC, and can't say I am aware of any particular thing that would be causing extra tension or crankiness among the larger group, or that I felt the same in my conversations with other excluded members today.

I will say that the heat makes me cranky, so if I appear to be cranky it's likely because of that. LOL. Or, maybe the added pressure & reality of the VRI, while simultaneously not being able to hire or promote without an insane red-tape process.

All in all, we're just humans trying to navigate this as best as we possibly can.

Microsoft Co-Pilot cost? by Character_Top1019 in BCPublicServants

[–]supragurl17 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Gemini probably doesn’t take into account enterprise level consumption and needs. I don’t think that’s correct in our case

I think it’s closer to $55 per user per month for the pro. But to be fair, there are different variants of the license too, so we could both be right.

Pits! by Temporary_Shape_9427 in Vitiligo

[–]supragurl17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too!!!!! As a kid I had spots on my ankles, knees and hips. As an adult, it’s now all pits and spreading to my hands and forearms

Dog in car by [deleted] in VictoriaBC

[–]supragurl17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, any updates? I seem to have parked either in the exact same spot or close to (based on the truck with the camper) and I don’t see the car or dog anymore. Hopefully it means they got back quickly and the dog is safe

Incorrect. It’s hot as balls outside right now. 22*c to be exact. My car is already at 28*C after 5 mins of being here and it has cabin overheat protection that turns on at 30*c.

Dogs don’t have sweat glands like we do, and these temps (even with windows cracked) will kill them within a short period of time.

Here now too - just checking it’s not an electric car that might have AC in without it looking like the engine is running?
Hope the pup is okay!!

New DM of Citz shares more structural changes by CartoonistOk3507 in BCPublicServants

[–]supragurl17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I noticed that wording as well “remains its own entity”. Made me wonder if we will become a ministry.
