The Society’s Animal Protection Department enforces Alberta’s Animal Protection Act by responding to concerns within the City of Edmonton about animal neglect.

Animal ID: 82679Name: SpockAge: 4 yearsSex: MaleSpecies: CatBreed: Domestic Short HairColor: Grey Tabby/White

Spock Included in the adoption fee:- Spay/Neuter surgery (done before being placed up for adoption)- Microchipping- First set of vaccines- Complimentary post-adoption vet exam- And so much more!

Greetings, I am Spock. I was born with a birth defect that leaves me with a permanent Vulcan salute – any trekkies out there?! I am an independent gentleman who likes attention on my terms; when the mood strikes, I soften into a real sweetheart. Go slow with me, though – sometimes I still think I’m waging intergalactic battles and can play a bit rough. I am part of the Cattitude Cats program, which means my fee is waived. I still come neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, so I’m all set to join your crew.Will you be the captain of my starship enter-prise? I can't wait to live long and pawspurr in my forever home!

PET OF THE WEEK




Dear Working Wise:I was just laid off from my job after five years with the same company. Unfortu-nately, the whole industry has slowed down and no one is hiring. I’m a bit shocked and not sure what to do. Signed Unsure

Dear Working Wise:

Working WiseWorking WiseWorking Wise

Dear Unsure:

Losing your job can be one of the most stressful life events you may ever face. Getting a pink slip doesn’t just a�ect your cash �ow – it can a�ect your con�dence, self-esteem and the friendships you’ve made through work.

If you feel like you’re wrestling with the emotions from losing your job, check out the Coping With Your Loss section on the Alberta Learning Information Service (ALIS) website at: alis.alberta.ca/jobloss.

Emotional support is also available through the Mental Health Helpline, 1-877-303-2642albertahealthservices.ca/mentalhealth.asp.

First, negotiate your severance and settlement. Don’t feel pressured to accept a severance or settlement package immediately. Take some time to think about the o�er and don’t be afraid to negotiate. Understand your Employment Standards rights at: work.alberta.ca/es.

Want legal advice? Contact the Law Society of Alberta to �nd a lawyer who specializes in employment law at www.lawsociety.ab.ca. Once you and your employer have agreed to a “deal,” get it in writing.

Second, ask for letters of reference. Having reference letters will help when you’re looking for a new job.

Third, ask for your Record of Employment. You need a Record of Employment to apply for Employment Insurance. Contact your nearest Service Canada Centre if you haven’t received your record within 14 days of your last pay from your employer.

Fourth, apply for Employment Insurance (EI) online at servicecanada.gc.ca/ei or in person at your nearest Service Canada Centre. Apply for EI as soon as you stop working. You can even apply for EI before you receive your Record of Employment.

Fifth, review your �nances and develop a budget while you look for a new job. Ask your accountant, banker or �nancial adviser for advice or check out the free tips on the Money Mentors web site at: moneymentors.ca.

If you don’t have a severance package, are not eligible for EI, and have no other resources (e.g., family support, investments, or savings) you can apply for Income Support assistance while you look for a new job through Alberta Works. For more information on Income Support, visit: humanservices.alberta.ca.

Finally, explore your career options. Take this opportunity to think about your career. Do you want to switch industries, careers or open your own business?

Free career planning services are available through:Career Information Hotline: 1-800-661-3753ALIS Website: alis.alberta.ca.

For help with your job search, visit your nearest Alberta Works Centre. There are 53 Alberta Works Centres located across the province. You can �nd the one nearest you at: humanservices.alberta.ca/o�ces.

Still have questions? Read Creating a New Future: The Job-Loss Workbook. It covers everything I’ve mentioned here plus much more. You can pick up a free copy at your nearest Alberta Works Centre or get it online at: alis.alberta.ca/js/ws/jsr/jobloss.

Good luck!

Do you have a work-related question?Send your questions to Working Wise, at [email protected]. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.
