@Bell the random sales call I get at 6:30 p.m. where the guy takes a solid 2 seconds to say hello and you hear people talking in the background... Is this a legit sales call, cause if so, you should hire a new call centre

@csa_asc where would one find an accurate, credible source of "moon phases" for the 2023 calendar year? I'm assisting in putting together a calendar and want to ensure I have an accurate source of information.
Tks @redcrosscanada, resharing along with my original screen grab of the SMS for anyone else that might get this
Hi Liam — This is not legitimate. The Canadian Red Cross communicates only via email, phone, or in person and would never send a link through a text message.
Great thread I came across this morning from some old colleagues in my uniformed days of #PublicAffairs.
Generally speaking, I agree with @KellyW_NB quote, "bring solutions".
As I moved to civilian work this holds, but critical thinking/conversations are key.
Miss ya'll!

Paraphrasing a bit, but this quote from the White Swan Podcast, featuring Jo-Anne Poirier of VON, nailed it
"Good leaders know that clarity trumps control in a #crisis #management"
Bang on, thanks for this one @hanovertweets

Met @_jenncasey a number of times and had the privilege of working with her on a project or two...
Very happy to hear this, thanks for sharing the news @JCStadnyk, now that I'm off the mailing list I don't always think to look for these announcements.

To quote a friend [paraphrasing] "A tree won't get planted if you post a picture of your dog. Idiot"
As a consumer you need to be diligent, maybe even skeptical.
As an organization you're supposed to BRIDGE the "say-so" gap, not make it wider.

Optics. What you say and how you say it are just as important as the actions (or in actions) you take.
Though I disagree with Bruce in this particular comic, I think topics like #COP26 are important enough to meet face to face about, optics will still sink you.
