Deets, digits, and dogging for our needs

Howdy, folks - here are a couple of random info items from the Compass news bureau.

1. We're desperately missing a yellow-bound copy of "Do What You Are" and are hoping for its safe and speedy return. No questions asked and no guilt-induction warranted.

2. Elaine visited last week's information meeting regarding careers in the public services (ie. governments, Crown Corporations, the RCMP, the military, etc) and came away with the phone number for BC's two newly-created Career Advisor positions (1-888-944-3327). The job of these folks is to advise you as to where you might fit, career-wise, into various public service areas. It was strongly suggested that, before calling, you familiarize yourself with general public service values and determine what skills you have to offer so as to assist the advisors in determining where these attributes might be put to best use.

3. If you haven't checked out our networking website lately, you may not have seen some interesting recent blog entries, my pitch for Dave Eggers as my new personal superhero, or Rachel's notice of the sweet Now BC community potluck happening this Wednesday (May 20th) to celebrate local, sustainable food and food security and to raise money for Food For Families Food Bank.

Hope you celebrated the births of our former Monarchs in style this past weekend.
