Lots of big ideas to help the Canadian health care system

Not a lot of the plans seem to be carrying through any time soon

If you are currently unemployed, a new grad, or new to Canada, apply to CPDC for work experience, but start thinking about your next move.

Incompetent management -  many are highly educated, but they do not possess the hands-on knowledge or people management skills. Many projects rely entirely on the industry expertise of non-management level staff (with less education) who do not receive appropriate credit, raise, or promotion.  Unequal division of work - there are people consistently working 9-11 hour days, 6 days a week, while some are clearly not up to much. The extra workload is always assigned to those who are better team players, consequently resulting in poor performance and behavior getting rewarded.  Overtime - not everybody gets paid for their overtime, and the definition of overtime is different for each individual.  People don't always get the 11-hour rest period between shifts. You can end up working the weekend with last minute notice and get a gift card (instead of pay) with an amount that is less than the current minimum wage in Ontario.  The management avoids dealing with difficult employees, so it is often the handful of "nice" employees that gets volun-told for overtime work. These difficult employees go from project to project or supervisor to supervisor with the other staff picking up what these employees can't do.
