Another One Bites The Dust


A few days ago the tenants received a note that KMHC Outreach Worker Charles Jacobs has left the building.  After reading the letter I would suspect he left unexpectedly and now UNH’s is looking for a replacement.  It’s not fair on HOW Lynda Jones who now has to work twice as hard but Hey! That’s how UHN’s operates. Charles & I got along well he earned my respect some time ago when I was upset over Gerimaine’s death. He offered his support.
I would describe Charles as a quiet family man who did his job, during smoke breaks he would sit outside text messaging whoever and kept to himself.  During the drama I had with HSC Ingrid Nosel at Christmas time I could tell he was put in a awkward position due to Ingrid’s childish tantrum. “Sorry Tony, Ingrid said you don’t get a gift card” In turn I replied to Charles “That’s Ok!  It’s not your fault” and I patted him on shoulder.  In reality I was thinking Ingrid can shove the gift card up her fat ass I really don’t care. 
 A lot of good KMHC employees came and went ie: Lorraine, Charles, Jan, Stephanie, Joseph, Jan, Jerry and others yet we’re still stuck with Ingrid.  Ho Hum!  :(
Other news: They did some construction at the basement level, finally the maintenance crew made a door big enough for Ingrid to get through. LOL
I just saw the exterminator and can smell the bug spray in the hallway.. you know what that means.  Yikes! :(
There is a lot of unhappy tenants in the KMHC building they all have there own beefs about this place.  As for me as long as the office doesn’t bug me with their asinine policies I have no problem at this time.
My community work: After a long cold snowy wet winter I got out my squeegee & pail and washed the windows for all the tenants on my floor. I've been doing this since I moved here and the tenants appreciate my good deed.  I feel sorry for the other tenants on the upper floors because UNH's does not wash windows. UNH's would rather issue N5 eviction notices. :P

June is Aboriginal month, to all bloggers & readers check out the events in your area. Not all of us Indians are wild. :D

Poor Working Environment

My unit is located near the KMHC office, along with a friendly wave or hello I see the junior staff going about their business in a cheerful manner with the exception of one employee.   You would think KMHC has a pleasant working environment but that is not the case.   March 2016 is when Urban Native Homes head office was forced to move from their former spacious location to the cramp basement level of KMHC.   There were approx. 8-10 staff members at the time.   Then the Urban Native Homes financial scandal broke out and soon after the current UNH acting director’s illicit past became public knowledge, everyone was worried will they have a job.  Fearful meetings going on in the community room, the rumor mill was in full rotation while I just stood back and observed the panic.   Check your search engine it states this building location is Urban Native Homes head office yet that is not correct.  There is no real head office, the organization has s...

Lock That Door!

FOB A few years ago UNH’s installed electronic door locks on all levels of the KMHC building.   There was grumbling from tenants about the inconvenience but soon learn to adapt.   Before entry the tenant must have a FOB device to unlock and open the front door. *Similar to the image above*   Yeah it’s a pain in the arse when a tenant is carrying groceries and other items.   The one thing I like about the FOB lock system is when the building fire alarm is triggered all FOB locked doors electronically swing open.   Soon after the FOB lock systems were installed I notice something peculiar.   During office hours the basement door was jarred open by the UNH’s staff and I figured out why.   UNH staff was too lazy to get up off their seat and physically open the door for their visitors.   There is a security camera monitor at the reception desk and a buzzer that opens the main door but Jeezus Come on ladies!   Tenant elders are inst...

The End Is Here

Urban Native Homes Inc. will no longer exist.   Today and tomorrow Ciy of Hamilton/Ontario Aboriginal Housing Human Resources Dept. are interviewing UNH staff and other applicants in the community room.   Who will be rehired and who will be fired!   I just hope they choose wisely. Tonight I heard Christine Lenze, her mother Ingrid Nosel and the rest of their family and friends has left UNH. This evening before I left for the gym I ran into receptionist Melissa Wissner in the hallway.   She was waiting for her job interview and had a message for me from former UNH caseworker Crystal Mackenzie.  Crystal wishes me good luck and it was a pleasure working with me.  I was surprised by the message and I wish her the best too. :) My blog site has accomplished what I started out to do some years ago by publicly outing the mismanagement of Urban Native Homes Inc.  It's been a long arduous journey. I would like to thank anonymous and the others for thei...
