> The lawsuit also alleges CBC management in its northern operations kept a secret “do not hire” list that disproportionately blacklisted marginalized, disabled and Indigenous people
But I keep hearing that we need to defund CBC because they only hired non-white people. Hmmmm…..

The ceo no doubt is (or was if she’s not there anymore) a nasty piece of work. That attitude trickles all the way down.

A crying room is the most CBC thing I’ve ever heard

My workplace has a crying room

Cooks and servers have had these for decades. They call it a „walk-in cooler.“

My workplace has a crying room, and I have WFH for almost six years…..

Ya, having a crying room seems like something the CBC would implement

The school systems of the last 25 years have produced adults that can’t deal with ANY adversity whatsoever. There are definitely toxic workplaces that can lead one to shed some tears, but the majority of people I see crying at work are young people over something completely unrelated to their assigned tasks at work. It’s also often self inflicted…..i.e. my coworkers called me out for having to pick up their shift when I called in sick to go to some event that I plastered all over my social media.

Man even when I was doing a call center stint post-college and being subjected to daily verbal abuse from strangers, I never felt like crying at work. Soft as new baby shit these fucking CBC employees.

I’m a teacher. Most schools I’ve worked at have a crying room for staff.

Surely „we made a crying room for you,“ is far more insulting than anything they’ve heard from a coworker.
The man states that thy didn’t want to hire an Inuit candidate because they thought the person had autism or anxiety. Probably not the best conditions to have in the journalism field, where you have to network vigorously and face the pressure of deadlines.

The idea that CBC had a do not hire list of „marginalized people“ is not believable at all.

My workplace has a crying room.
It isn’t attached and they serve alcohol and wings on Wednesdays.
Come to think of it… there are several crying rooms.

You got a crying room? Lucky. I had to use my car.

If your work does not keep a “do not hire” list. Do not work there!

CBC needs a Carney makeover. Bring in new leadership who cut out the BS that has plagued it for a long time.

I used to work in a CRA call centre
They call it a quiet room, but we all know what it’s mostly use for

As if Postmedia newsroom didn’t have crying rooms of their own before employees were forced to work from home.

These public sector workers have no idea how privileged they are… The rest of us have been forced to use our regular workspaces and nearby bars as crying rooms.

There’s no workplace in the country I could imagine would be more toxic than HR at CBC.

Whenever I hear, “the workplace was toxic,” I translate it as “I didn’t like my job but also didn’t quit.”

So, is the issue that the CBC caught up to the real world (retail, restaurants, sales, private industry and so on…) with a crying room/toxic work place, or just work place toxicity in general which now finally exists in some form at CBC?
I don’t advocate a toxic anything, but anywhere I’ve worked for the past 3 decades both private and public has had its share of a sh*t show in some form or another. I’m surprised an institution as large as the CBC hasn’t had issues.

“Crying Room” ?
Stephh075 on
I thought crying at work was just part of life. Lucky to have an actual room! I used to just cry in the bathroom and hope not too many people heard. WFH is great for crying.
