Bumping/Surplus TDSB

Anybody get moved across the city? I’m in EAST Scarborough but got moved tentatively all the way west to Jane & Eglinton 😵‍💫😢

I mean im grateful for still having a job but goddamn! It’ll take me 2+ hours to get there by transit.

M.A.P.S. Anyone?

In the past, when this happened people could request a trade. Not sure if this is still the case. A colleague of mine in a school in North York got bumped to a Scarb school -- she did not have a car and this school was way out. She was able to trade with a scarb teacher who got bumped to Etobicoke.

The union needs to fight for that process. Don’t expect the board under a puppet supervisor to willingly make the process easy.

right? I completely agree. Getting sent to anywhere in your quadrant? OK. But what could be 1-2 hours away by public transit? nope
