Allison was diagnosed with cancer late last year. She was told by the BC Cancer Agency to prepare for end-of-life care. So she decided to seek treatment in the U.S. and is currently celebrating her recent marriage. READ MORE: trib.al/oqIjIux

Yep. Still waiting, @Instagram / @InstagramComms . At least if this happened on Twitter, I could copy @ElonMusk on a tweet ( "Oil thigh na Banrighinn a'Banrighinn gu brath" BTW) and there is an off chance he might reply.Or a follower of his might. #socialmedia #productusersmatter

@dylanmadon2003 I never drive 50 on minor roads. It's an unsafe plan. Could be lethal. Major local 1s? Sure. I told my tester.Guess what? I failed the final test even tho everyone I know says I'm a solid driver. After, I disputed 2 claims made as being nonsense. No dash cam on...

ICBC's system is so broken and corrupt to be handing out licenses to drivers like this, then failing to for perfectly safe ones. I've failed my test 3 times, and one of my last "negative" ticks was for going 30km/h on a tight suburban road. bc.ctvnews.ca/two-n-drivers-…

Great quote about #creativity that I shared on #LinkedIn. I love how @GREYAgency has used it in their headquarters. See: linkedin.com/posts/pamelacb…

🧵@ngleicher I've had my FB account since the start of 2007 & a page since Jan 2010.I hear that activating FB Protect will likely lock me out of my account.Why is FB's design putting long term users like me at risk?Esp. as there's no Customer Service Help theverge.com/2022/3/18/2298…

I received this notice on the FB app. Have you signed up? Do you have any tips to share? I read that you can get locked out. Tips anyone?! The clock is ticking for me, apparently. See: dallasnews.com/news/watchdog/… #facebookprotect

🧵6 times I've taken low paying & not very challenging jobs just to pay the rent.I moved overseas. 3Xs I've rebooted my career & started at the bottom. Would GenZ accept that?I've 4 degrees from top ed orgs & plenty of solid work exp. People still seek my prof. skills for free🧵

🧵Some stopped asking about my career goals. "How are UR kids?" is the only question I get. But then things started to get weird. People advised me that I should consider trying to have a job. (Huh? I held jobs for 22 years!) I should great people at Walmart. Become a secretary🧵

🧵In the intervening years I've focussed on philanthropic, pro bono & community work.I kept sending resumes out w/my well regarded professional & academic chops. I kept hearing crickets.Our family plugs along on a tight budget. And I get farther from the ideal hiring age of 27 🧵

🧵 Although, I should mention that when a senior lawyer in YYR heard what happened he immediately said "do you want me to represent you"? Not because he was looking for work (he had enough) but because he felt there was a case to be made.🧵

🧵 This incl. a job being eliminated & the $ for the positionbeing moved into a new position. I've been gaslit ever since that I don't have grounds to complain. But I wasn't able to find a similar job & as time passed every month sank me deeper into the No Interview Invite hole🧵

🧵 The basic legal argument is that women on mat leave aren't on site to protect their jobs when re orgs - or whatever excuse is given - are happening. Giving birth and being on mat leave shouldn't result in your job being reallocated elsewhere. 🧵

🧵 There is a whole body of research about how women are disproportionately affected by job cuts at the start of 2nd adulthood. Factor in #ageism and YVR's dominant #whoyouknowism and you start to see why being qualified enough doesn't guarantee invitations for job interviews. 🧵

The details of this case align with what happened to me. When you lose a Mgmt job while on mat leave at a Uni that has on site daycare, and you're an older mum with twins at an age when job loss is a big problem, you are definitely left worse off. bc.ctvnews.ca/prince-george-…

🧵 When you get paid less because you're a woman -I was told this happened to me at a local Uni- & then face ageism & Inside Favouritism in the hiring process, job protection while on Mat leave is CRITICAL.Women like me represent lost potential for the BC economy @KasariGovender

The dominant theme since I entered the workforce has been "Struggling to get called in for an interview despite having the required credentials? Work as a secretary." If I said this to 20 something women today, what would they say? linkedin.com/feed/update/ac… bcfamily.ca/starting-over-…
