Nothing says “Happy Holidays” to CA scientists like LBFO imposed(?) by CalHR, looming deficit used to remove resources & travel for work after CA gov’s people go to COP28 and brag about our work/commit us to more. @capsscientists #AvoidCollapse #ValueScientists #WokeUpSalty

You can’t do that work without qualified, intelligent and dedicated scientists. Scientists that are currently underfunded and out of contract going on 3 years. We do the work necessary to react to climate change. #COP28 #ValueScientists #CaStateScientists #AvoidCollapse

At COP28, California’s delegation is moving the needle on global climate action.
We’re partnering with other governments to accelerate clean energy & cut pollution.
Our coalitions are tackling climate change with the urgency it needs.

@capsscientists strike day 3.
I assure you, I would much rather be working to protect CA's incredible diversity of native trout (like the Lahontan Cutthroat Trout in this 📷).
Did you know...

CA Gov't Code 19826 states that “like salaries shall be paid for comparable duties and responsibilities.”
But, that's not what's happening and #CAStateScientists have been w/o a contract for 3 yrs.

Time for @CalHR_gov
and @CAgovernor to backup their claims that they #ValueScientists by giving us like pay for like work, as they're already required to do.
For the fish, for our families (for my daycare bills) the time is now #EqualPayCA!

Excellent Day 2 @capsscientists strike signage from my talented co-worker.
#CaStateScientists make 62%-210% less than their managers and 37-50% less than state employees in other bargaining units who perform comparable work. #EqualPayCA #PayEquityNOW #ValueScientists

To avoid straining your eyes at work, use the 20-20-20 rule: Every 20 minutes, go for a 20-minute hike and spend the next 20 years in the woods.

I just saw a Midwest R1 university post a PhD-required scientist position (read: not a tenure-track “training” post-doc) for $46K starting salary 😳 Meanwhile, you can be a program admin at the SAME school/university for $60K with only a bachelor’s. What is the value of a PhD?
