I am willing to coach the Oilers if Babcock falls through.

World won’t end with Babcock as coach. People need to stop freaking out.

Todd Nelson, that is who the Oilers should hire. It would make for the best redemption story for a coach.

Costco has the strictest food safety of any grocery chain. They also audit how their suppliers treat workers, and their standards exceed minimum standards.

This war in Iran is going to push everyone’s food costs up. Costs are rising and significantly on shipping. This is not something any politician can save us from in Canada.

A lady who applied for a job and didn’t show for interview applied for another one of my jobs. I so want to call her on it. I won’t but I want to.

People that remember stuff, just to use it against you are annoying.

How will this affect fracking countries like Canada?
🚨 BREAKING 🇦🇪 UAE IS LEAVING OPEC (THE ORGANIZATION OF THE PETROLEUM EXPORTING COUNTRIES). NOW, IT WILL HAVE NO LIMITS ON OIL PRODUCTION. MILLIONS OF BARRELS WILL FLOOD THE MARKET. LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING EXTREMELY BAD IS COMING...

If Canada was a communist state, based on what we have seen in terms of freedom of speech in other communist countries, would you be able to live in Canada and trash Canada as a country without consequences?

Yesterday, my last interview was memorable. A young man showed up for a 4 pm interview. He came in, sat down and we got to talking. Getting to Acheson is not easy without a car but this young man managed by busing to as close as the bus would get him and then took an Uber. I was like, why would you do that? Busing and ubering has got to take time and be expensive. He said he has never had a job and needs that on his resume. He doesn’t want to graduate with a resume with no job on it. In a day and age when 50% of young people don’t show up for interviews here is a young man willing to bus and uber to get to work. Of course I am going to hire him. He made the effort to get here. We will figure out a way to help with getting to work and getting home.

3 pm interview showed up and got the job. So much of life is showing up, being in the arena.

0-2 today for interviews. I feel like there should be a database employers can search to see those who apply for jobs, get an interview and don’t show up.
2 minutes… will my next interview show?

I don’t like the question, is the interview in person or online. Always in person. If you are not willing to drive here, I am not willing to hire you.

I am baffled by this generation. Person applies for the job of ice stacker. I hire students for this. I offer an individual an interview. That person is only willing to come for an interview if I promise them the job.

The hard part about getting a job driving with a class 3 is it costs more to insure anyone with 3 years of insured driving on a vehicle requires class 3.

Hiring is always interesting. I don't get why resumes are not more polished with AI. Do people not get a resume is a ticket to a better life? Yet so many treat the resume like an after thought. If your resume is poorly done, you are not getting a job. On indeed, they will show PDF files, they don't always show word. It is up to me to download, get a word lisense to see it. I explain this to one guy, ask him to upload a different format. His response was other people see it fine. Here I am trying to help the guy and he gives me attitude. I guess I should be happy because he eliminated himself from contention. Speaking of eliminating canditates it is the new job every year that gets the X on indeed for me. Nobody wants an employee that job hops because it means they won't stick around to give a good ROI on the investment of training a worker or they were let go after a year. Showing up for an interview looking like you just got out of bed.
