It’s finally time for me to look for a new Free Agent assignment! After almost three years of helping managers and Free Agents connect through my role as Business Manager for Canada’s Free Agents, I’m hoping I’ve made enough connections to make my search quick and painless. 1/3

45 minutes!!!

Resumes, cover letters and references from 1-2pm Oct 18 @CMHR_News Pamela James @pamjamhildy and Kalhari Goonewardene @kalbanda   Attendees will hear tips and tricks to use on creating and/or updating their own resumes's, cover letters and references.   #FLNLevelUp #LeadersGC

@jondotgov Fantastic! Thank you.

@pamjamhildy Whoops, nm, I totally glossed over the GCDirectory info, I have what I need, I'll email you today

I'll be starting my next assignment this summer. If you have any hiring needs or leads to teams that do, please get in touch. DM me, send me an email (I’m in GCdirectory, listed at TC), or send a pigeon another way. I would love to lock this down by the end of the month. 3/3

I’d like to do some public engagement work, with clients, help people navigate a program or system, etc. Preference would be CO position (CO-02 or -03). I’m trying not to be too prescriptive, as I am open to suggestions & maybe I’ll wind up with something entirely unexpected 2/3

See you there!

Don't forget to join us today! At 3 pm EST, DM us if you need the link.

Today on the National Day of Mourning PSAC honours all lives lost or injured due to a workplace tragedy. Unions have always been at the forefront of workplace safety, and currently 155,000 PSAC members are on strike across Canada to fight for better and safer workplaces.

If you are struggling to understand the remote work part of the current strike, this is 12 minutes that is well worth your time: cbc.ca/player/play/21…

@MShazbot I’m sure she’d love to see her idea repeated in other cities though!

@MShazbot Didn’t see her today! The downtown lines are only about 15 minutes’ drive away, so she could be there. People are moving around day to day.

@CroftonSteers Fame was inevitable, honestly.

@CroftonSteers getting a shout out from The Functionary! mailchi.mp/22ed9b625d04/w…

You know how I know my city is cool? We just established a bureaucratic leadership position to find strategic efficiencies in being cool. That's cool, right daddy-o?

@RobButler @NatalyArar When you reach a milestone, find out who your department’s long service award coordinator is and make sure you’re on their list! My service record is messy and I have to explain and help sort it out. I’ve never received one I didn’t pursue myself.

@NatalyArar Wait, I have never gotten any. Lol. I started in 2008!

@quidampepin Anyone else clicking those “links”? 🤣

On another note, I find the usage of underline for emphasis *hilarious*! Tell me your web comms specialist are striking without telling me your web comms specialists are striking...!

I have a hard time seeing how this gets us closer to a deal: canada.ca/en/treasury-bo… If it's really a letter to public servants, then it's asking us to not listen to our union. It looks more like a letter to the general public, "showing" how unreasonable we are. #PSACStrike

@heyhumantis Your song is playing now!

@pamjamhildy Although I wouldn’t be able to hear it … ❤️ The Killers!
