I too have been fortunate enough to work with a few good Mgrs. However the majority were not and many first time managers were on power trips. Which is very hard condition to work with.

Looks like the detailed neighborhood infection map from BC CDC that was uncovered by the media yesterday, confirms exactly what we already suspected and more or less known, that Surrey, North Delta (really a part of Surrey) and Abbotsford are in a very bad spot with rampant Covid spreading like wildfire. As I previously mentioned some time ago, I'm not surprised one bit to see this, as mask wearing is on the low side in these parts (but getting better). Glad to see that they will be targeting these areas for vaccines. Should have been doing so much earlier as these two areas in particular have been publicly known hot-spots for 9-10 months. Also banning flights form India and Pakistan will surely help as mentioned in this article https://globalnews.ca/news/7831103/air-travellers-covid-test/ "On April 23, Canada banned flights from India and Pakistan because of the high number of positive COVID-19 cases on those flights. In the two weeks before that decision was made, 165 flights carried at least one person who later tested positive, 43 of them from India. Almost every flight that landed from India had at least one positive COVID-19 patient." It's amazing that every flight had contaminated people from India as they were supposed to all have been tested negative prior to boarding. Although I'd like to believe they caught it off the airplane toilet seat on the way over, the likely explanation is falsifying test results using faked documents recently discovered by the Canadian, Australian and N.Z. police. https://qz.com/india/1993757/indians-are-using-fake-covid-19-results-to-travel-skip-exams/ https://globalnews.ca/news/7724514/canada-cbsa-travellers-fake-tests/ I can't believe good citizens would do such a selfish thing and jeopardize infecting hundreds on a plane and fellow citizens back in Surrey and Abbotsford. Don't they have any conscience ? What type of people would do such a thing ??? Hopefully further International flight bans will occur from other countries, as i'm sure there are other problematic countries. International flights should have been all banned a year ago. How do think all the new variants got in here ????

Are you sure you're in management? You spelled that out like a "normal" employee, not one full of himself like many managers I've come across in my days. Thank you for being so truthful and down to earth. A special place awaits you in Heaven - (void of all managers) !

RU SERIOUS replied to Tom Sestito's topic in Canucks Talk
Well for all the bad things he screwed up on like Loui E and more recently letting TT walk, he did have some bright moments- I'll admit. HOWEVER, if my facts are correct, I believe he's now the 2nd longest reigning GM in the league and despite the freak appearance in the playoffs last year, we've had nothing but losing seasons since he's been at the helm and things seem to have taken a major step backwards this year. I'm not sure where to point, whether it's TG, his asst's, the players, the fact we dumped our top goalie and defenseman and a couple of supporting players in one shot -after last season, the schedule, Covid ???? No matter, something has to change because I'm bracing for another post season press conference from JB blaming all of the above plus injuries, plus the lack of depth players, plus the moon was not in the right orbit etc, etc.... and I don't know about you but I'm getting tired of the same excuses year after year and I'm reasonably patient. As you are well aware we have $40M+ coming off the books after this season and next and obviously a chunk of that will have to go to resigning Quinn and EP but the rest must be wisely invested in the right players as we may not have another window like this for a couple of years afterwards. So I'm very cautiously optimistic that JB makes some hard decisions and continues the purge he begun last year by NOT resigning any more of the old deadwood players and we finally get some half descent bottom 6 depth players. On the flip side, if JB was let go - I don't think I'd shed tears but would certainly miss his drafting skills. -
Very happy to see the kids finally get a chance to play this season instead of the old useless deadwood bottom 6 players on our 3rd and 4th lines, which all have to go along with Edler and lazy Jake.(unless he ends up in prison) after this season. I'm sure our new coach next year will see the advantages of playing some of these young, energetic, hungry, young players before putting those unmotivated, slow, boat-anchors on the Ice like Roussel, Sutter, Motte and Lazy Jake to name a few....all of which are instantly replaceable at a fraction of the cost - to boot! Looking forward to next season but in the meantime let the youth play!

If I say "Benning is a Pussy" will you get mad at me ? -
................Always am very precise and factual and glad I could inform others a bit more !!!
-
That's fantastic ! Hopefully we can all get poked and get in the stands again next October. Can't wait to actually go to a game !!!
-
OMG - really Gurn??? Sorry but unfortunately for some strange reason, I don't seem to able to control the size of Scientific Health Studies (not sure why -LOL) - maybe in my next lifetime...... So in turn, I've provided endless amounts of factual references about that Astrra Zenica stuff to back up everything I've stated from Government of Canada reports CDC reports, WHO reports & reputable news outlets instead of Social media and rumors - where lazy people get their news. Although I'd love to sit here all day and spoon-feed all those lazy people who don't make any effort to obtain their own information from reputable news outlets, I think I've already gone over-board doing so. I've done my duty!

Hahaha. You made me laugh for 2 minutes !!! Even if The CPC (Communist party of Ch ina) Vaccine (A.K.A. Sinovac) did not contain secretly embedded micro-chips to control your mind,(joking of course), I still wouldn't take it because it's barely over the World Heath Organizations bare minimum 50% threshold efficacy (at 50.4%) making it's use suspect - at best coming out of that country and why it's mainly used in third world countries.https://news.cgtn.com/news/2021-03-14/China-continues-to-contribute-to-global-vaccine-distribution-YCquwiznFK/index.html

Sure, not a problem..... it's in many other articles published, not in the Gov't of Canada on., Sorry I forgot to include that reference for the mis-informed AZ promoters. https://www.forbes.com/sites/williamhaseltine/2021/03/17/astrazeneca-vaccine-fails-to-protect-against-the-south-african-variant/?sh=60c9fae6526e Another: Extracted from this article........ https://www.advisory.com/en/daily-briefing/2021/04/16/variants-vaccines................................................... .................... AstraZeneca's vaccine, which has not been authorized in the United States, against certain variants. One very small study suggested that that vaccine was almost entirely ineffective at preventing mild cases of Covid-19 against B.1.351, and a separate experiment found that it takes 86 times as many antibodies from the AstraZeneca vaccine to neutralize B.1.351 as it does to neutralize the original strain of the virus. "I'm basically not confident about [AstraZeneca's] vaccine at all" in mitigating B.1.351 infections, Abdool Karim said. Let me know if you require any further proof about the real facts about that AZ stuff........ Stay safe and happy vaccination !
-
I heard on Fox news that Trump said the Tracking Microchip was only available in the Chinese Sinovac vaccine.....and they would never lie about that!
-
I didn't say that AZ is some 3rd world country junk because its made in India - you did! Just stating facts that there are identified risk associated with J&J and the Indian concocted 3rd world country junk (as you called it) that do not exist in the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. If there was nothing else available, I'd be forced to take it too in a last ditch desperate effort to protect myself. Something to correct, that all of the Phizer vaccine supplied to date came from the European plant in Brussels. NONE from the USA - AT ALL, but might start to get some trickling in next week. https://www.ctvnews.ca/health/coronavirus/canada-to-receive-2m-vaccine-doses-this-week-as-pfizer-biontech-ramp-up-deliveries-1.5411460 Another correction that Denmark Will NOT inject Astra Zenica stuff into their people arms due to their fears of potential blood clots and death after injecting Astra Zenica into their bodies, that's why they are not using it - NOT the reason you stated. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-56744474#:~:text=Denmark has ceased giving the,vaccination programme by several weeks. and yes, a few European countries have just recently allowed very limited use of that stuff after most of them banned it https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/3/15/which-countries-have-halted-use-of-astrazenecas-covid-vaccine along with many other countries due to the danger of blood clots and death. Another correction: The AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine showed an effectiveness of about 62% in preventing symptomatic COVID-19 disease beginning 2 weeks after the second dose and completely ineffective against any of the variants strains. So your family is unfortunately NOT fully protected. https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/drugs-health-products/covid19-industry/drugs-vaccines-treatments/vaccines/astrazeneca.html Oh and one last thing, I'm also aware that India is a major supplier of drugs to the world. I can vouch for that - I live in Surrey and have plenty of neighbors "in the business" !!! NOTE: In future kindly check your facts from reputable sources and not social media before posting, so misinformation is not spread regarding this most serious disease as we don't want to mis-inform unsuspecting/uninformed people, but I do appreciate your efforts to try and justify the use of that Indian Astra Zenica stuff to yourself. I wish you all the best of luck trying to find a second AZ shot for your family as Canada is pretty well "out-of stock' of this now and it look like India won't be exporting any more doses for the foreseeable future because of the high demand in their own country. Maybe your family will get lucky and mix their first AZ shot with one of the normal shots like Moderna or Pfizer. So they might end-up O.K. after all.

5-2 Oilers Dry-Sightall GWG -
Certainly agree. I meant "poor Jake" as in; :That guy's never gonna learn" ! (IOW he's a goof !)

Why not something more appropriate that people in Abby can identify with like say ...."The Fly-Traps" or ..... "The Butchers" or maybe even "The 2 Hour Commuters" ?

[discussion/poll] Trent Cull - next coach of the Canucks?
RU SERIOUS replied to JM_'s topic in Canucks Talk
This is who we need to get our pussy-cats whipped into shape. Enough of the pampering Yoga sessions, back massages, psychotherapy, food nutritionist, nail polishing and tarrot card reading BS supplied by management to the players. We need a real man to step in and take our soft, finessed players from boyhood into manhood and teach them what it takes to win and beat the soft, euro-style Swedish influence out of them that has hampered this team for 18 years! Tigers the Man to do it ! -
[discussion/poll] Trent Cull - next coach of the Canucks?
RU SERIOUS replied to JM_'s topic in Canucks Talk
NO MORE ROOKIE AHL/ECHL COACHES. Our star players are moving into their prime in the next 2-3 years and need some professional leadership. I don't want to watch another 5 years of coaching mistake, being outcoached in the playoffs, poor player management, inability to prepare a team for the season, miscommunication, poor game management and bench penalties which we've had to painfully endure for far too long. Vancouver should no longer be considered a training/elementary school for AHL/ECHL rookie coaches like TG and Uncle willy. Just look at where that got us - as we enter yet another embarrassing off season punted out of the playoffs. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH ! -
Well it sort of is. BTW, maybe you can answer this since you're a regular NCIS watcher. When Lazy Jake is traded in the off season to one of the American teams deep in the far southeast, can he serve his sentence in an American Jail in Fla. if/when he's convicted, or will he have to be extradited back to Canada to serve his sentence in a prison here? Just wondering what the deal is between Canada & the USA RE: prisoner swaps.
-
but, but, but.....this is the best part of the season and an annual event in Canuckland, where we get to bash the coaches, GM, players and overpriced seats and food at the rink. You don't know what you'll be missing out on. You should hang in there and join the "Venting Crowd" Most fun of the year!!!! Just like Christmas !!!!

Personally, I think this has something to do with the Russians !

I wouldn't touch that Astra-Zenica vaccine from India with a 10 foot pole. I waited and obtained the European made Pfizer safe vaccine with a much higher efficacy rate and without side effects including possible death in rare circumstances with the A.Z and J&J shots. Even though the odds are 1 in 100,000 that something goes wrong, those odds are still not comforting. When the USA and other normal countries like Denmark and others completely avoid using a product due to safety concerns, you know there's something seriously wrong. The only reason Trudeau allowed its use here was because the Liberal government could not deliver on their promises to get quality vaccine here in time and so they allowed it's use to avoid political embarrassment. Plain and simple!

Just saw on the news tonight that Vancouver Police Dept. has now moved in on this sex allegation case. I would expect arrest to be made in the near future. Poor jake!

Following this second loss to Edmonton (May 4th) we are now officially ranked at 0.0% of making the playoffs by the Odds makers. Time to play the rookies - flat out. lets see what they can do and what we have in the bank! Great opportunity and we should strive to lose all remaining games to get better draft odds. Thank god it was a short season! I couldn't bare to watch a 9 month season of this GREEN GARBAGE. Looking forward to off-season to purge the old timers and coaching staff. Maybe Uncle Jim will be shown the door too - never know.
