Back in July, @cupe3912.bsky.social filed for conciliation. @dalhousieu.bsky.social say they couldn’t meet until October (they were busy preparing to lockout the @dalfaculty.bsky.social)
Will the #Dal BOG offer #CUPE3912 a #FairDeal on Oct 2? Or will they force another job action?

‘the stimulative effects of crisis motivate a particular kind of seepage across this boundary: uncompensated labour, long instrumental to the opera-tion of the domestic sphere, is now solicited in the workplace. Thus, in the recession, employees were asked to work for less pay in order to keep their employers afloat, and now we have the more subtle extension of this strategy in increasing workloads as benefits and salaries barely keep pace with the rising cost of living and the steeply escalating cost of education. Institutions “work all the better the more they break down” because they become even more cost-effective by invoking a sense of crisis that motivates personal sacrifice to corporate need’

The @cupe3912.bsky.social Executive Committee is proud to endorse #CUPE3912 member, Christine Saulnier, for #CUPENovaScotia President.
Last night @cupe3912.bsky.social voted in favour of deactivating their X account. The following message will be posted "we're leaving (X)itter soon, find us on ______". This would entail leaving the account live for a few days so followers can choose to engage with #CUPE3912 elsewhere.

“Making a living wage as precarious faculty is incredibly difficult. In the #HRM, an entry- level instructor would have to string together at least nine #CUPE3912 teaching contracts (4.5 full credits) each year to achieve a living wage. So much for research!”
