Other proposals for Canadian MP's

- Travel time is just the cost of the job, you are responsible for getting to and from Ottawa.
- You must attend "optional" workplace training on your days off.
- Your house shifts are only available the night before. They may be split shifts, what you do for the 8 hours in the middle is your problem. Costs not covered.
- There is a vending machine downstairs, the only edible thing is Snickers. You cannot leave because lunch is only 15 minutes.

I find a lot of the young people around me were never taught about ergonomics. Healthy chair, desk, monitor usage stuff. How about you?

Not only does hot-desking make workers feel under-valued and disrespected, but it also reduces productivity. Every morning, at a new desk, I have to reset the positions of my various windows. And sometimes the mouse has a different sensitivity and I have to fix that, too.

Like the one I've got today. I've got the mouse tracking speed maxed out, and it still feels sluggish. WTF?

Somehow, someway, we're gonna get blamed for evangelical's prosletyzing at work. This dystopia is so mundane. 💩🤡 :tefillin:

"The #Trump administration has released new guidelines for federal employees expressing their #religion in the #workplace, protecting activities ranging from displaying #religious objects to recruiting coworkers to their religion.

The guidelines namecheck #tefillin, #Jewish prayer phylacteries, as an example of a religious item that federal workers may leave on their desks and use during breaks."

The Jerusalem Post | JPost.comNew Donald Trump admin. law protects Jewish tefillin practice | The Jerusalem Post"An employee may keep a Bible on her desk, and may read it during breaks. Similarly, an employee may keep rosary beads or tefillin on her desk,” the memo says.

Wow! I was kind of unprepared for the awkwardness until it landed. My #workplace #HR manager is sending out “healthy eating” advice emails, that’s just the delivery mechanism. Includes a **food bank** link. How absolutely shameless! You could instead increase wages! You could! But instead you point to a food bank. For employees. Let that sink in.

Let them eat cake!!! Hah. Fucking wild! #today
