I was super excited because i had passed an interview as a library clerk, however before getting hired i needed to pass a medical exam. Everything went well until they looked at my medical records and my naltrexone prescription was because of "polytoxycomanic". They wont tell my employer why i am inapt but i still have 6 weeks of "temporary inaptitude", this is so fucking stupid. God damnit i needed that fucking job, now i bet they are going to hire someone else. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK GOD WHY THE FUCK ARE THEY DOING THIS TO ME I HATE MY LIFE.

As a fellow job seeker, FUCK THAT. I've got a criminal history so that I can understand. But seriously? As long as you aren't drugging on the job what the fuck business of theirs is your medical history?

Fr it's some straight up bs and litterally illegal, if i could i would sue them but im not in a situation where that's a realistic option.

I was under the impression that Canada had a public health care system to rival the UK National Health Service.

So you still need medical insurance?

Fuck that! Workplace medical examinations are still relatively rare over here, as is drug testing.

Get yourself over to Blighty mate.

We have free healthcare but you still need medical insurance incase you for example hit someone with your car or an employee gets injured at work things like that.

You think i have'nt allredy tried? I applied EVERYWHERE, rn my only source of income is walking dogs and small gigs (assembling stuff like sheds or ikea furniture for wine moms and lawn care type shit) if i was'nt sober i would have to go back to prostituting myself.

Canada, they needed to make sure i dont have a pre existing back problem, some insurance bs incase i then claim i injured my back at the job so that i get to live off health insurance for the rest of my life or what ever some total bs.

Would that even happen in UK
I've never been drug tested my whole life working on some big building sites ?
 
Fuck on company nights out my boss would pick up all the scrap copper from different sites and buy a big bag of coke

IKEA instructions are shite I know but it's better to be confused assembling furniture than the other thing you mentioned

i know someone at a bakery that needs someone to watch the cameras

generic shit but if you're with me, it's something else. Point is, cuz that's my point...

you can still get a job, period

Do the cameras not record their data themselves including audio
Or do you mean someone to actually stare at the cameras
Or someone to sit in a room with lots of monitors
 
Could the person do it remotely? Was it a real job offer or just you saying online that you could get this person a job just like that *Snaps fingers* knowing they need one desperately --- feels almost like taunting if so and I dont love it

There are not job opportunities available everywhere and if you happen to have a decent job/career and be in a position to get others jobs; congrats! But that is not the case for all
 
I am but not at the same time. I got my own set of personal problems and maybe I can either solve it a bit faster or at the time rate it takes for one with less money than I have, to. I just know people because it just how this world works my friend, you can't live solo.. can't afford to have more money than you can spend or not at all. One word, moderation, just like with everything else you do.

It takes a bit to process some stuff like this, if I am to talk with a person that doesn't know anyone other than a few and that for fuck all, but eventually it gets through both ears.

My job is me, being a IT engineer, and I get a lot more infamy and troubles than simple puff and dusts around this environment(as such case being with most engineers I also happen to know). Doesn't mean everyone does the job good but they get payed. I am not rich, that's all I can say. Sleep well ;; )
