The Vent and Rant Thread

[Rumpelteazer]

The supermarket I work for is going to close in June for renovations. Those of us with a fixed hour contract got to choose to either take vacation days or to be placed at another store. I chose the latter and I've been lucky to get placed at the store of my preference; the one near my parents' place. It isn't the closest store (it'll take me over an hour to get there by bike and bus), but the ones closer aren't in good neighbourhoods and are known for problematic customers.

I've also offered to help pack up after the store's closed but before the builders move in and I also offered to help stock again when the building work is done. I'm not sure if I'm being taken up on the offer.

I hope next week we'll be getting more information. The only thing I know so far is where I'm going and which two colleagues are joining me. But I don't know if I'll be working the same schedule, I do hope I won't have to work nights. I just hate the uncertainty and want to know what is going to happen.

I'll also miss most of my colleagues, I'm getting along with almost everyone and most of us support each other when needed. Also our team leader and managers are great when supporting us when we have difficult customers. I hope the other will be similar.

Second rant: next week almost all weekdays, except for Wednesday, we're working with basically a skeleton crew. The drawback of working for a supermarket is that a lot of my colleagues are in school/college/university and have exam/test weeks at the moment. Tomorrow I'm on my own until 1pm on the self check-out square. At least the weather is bad tomorrow, which usually means it'll be quiet.

This is for Nova Scotia's only publically funded clinic for hearing and speech clinics. There is a form, but only for non-English/ASL speakers.

[DNSB]

Did you try filling out the form on the page where below the non-English/ASL, it states We Support ALL Languages? After all the form allows you to select English as a language option. Please note though that this page does not make an appointment, they will contact you to get more information.

Alternatively, you could click on the Find your nearest location button near the bottom of the page in the Call Us box, search for the location nearest you and go from there.

I'll try that, but it feels weird as it's labeled for non-English/ASL speakers, I'm neither.
