The videos are great to make, but there is a sad reason I'm doing so many videos these days

Chris is a non-union IT guy at Telus. Months before the current Telus labour problems, he was told that all non-union employees that honoured the picket lines would be fired. He had also been on training sessions for doing a union job if there was a strike/lockout, or whatever the heck is going on Since the labour problems started, he's been forced to work 12 hours a day, six days a week Noon to midnight have been his hours until this week. Now he's been scheduled for 1 pm to 11 pm, but still six days a week

He's exhausted most of the time, and I have lots of time on my hands when he's gone so much. Video production has been a great creative outlet for me during this really awful Telus cr*p. There seems to be no end in sight for a resolution at Telus, so you folks might be seeing a lot of videos posted over the next few months.

Who knows what's coming next, either. He's heard that in a few weeks, there will be some changes. The best case scenerio is that he goes back to his old job Worst case is that he's retrained and will have to go to BC and do someone's union job there for 12 hours a day, six days a week

I freaking hate Telus right freaking now
