Welcome to Oi! Your CBC employee portal!
by Oi! staff
If you’ve made it this far, it means you’ve clicked past the CBC policy warning that welcomes you every day, you’ve logged in to Novell, Groupwise, and Oi itself so we know without a doubt who you are, exactly what you’re doing at all times, and what you’re even thinking of clicking, and our probe has been gently inserted into your anus.
In fact, we’re looking at your HR records right now. Interesting reading.
But what we really want is your honest feedback on what you think about us and the CBC.
Just click here, and write an email, don’t be shy. We’ll keep it safe and private.
What’s there to be afraid of, old chum?
We’re going to be close, you and me. Real close. Know what I mean?
Reeeeeaaal close.
Er, ok, not that close. Do you mind moving over a little? A little more?
Just a little more?
Just a little farther, please.
Perfect.

Phase 3, Part 6, Section 1.5 of the Radio 2 Changes Coming Very Soon
by Oi! staff
Jennifer McGuire announced the latest in the changes to Radio 2 yesterday to a mostly captive audience in Studio 40. “These changes are critical to the success of the CBC” she said. “Our old plan of driving up numbers by hoping listeners who passed away would leave the radio on has been stymied by busybody nurses in retirement homes shutting them off.”

Guest blogger: Why won’t CBC radio hire me?
by The Tea Makers
The year was 1967. The place? The College Street streetcar. The fare was a dime back then. Someone got on, and dropped a nickel into the fare box. As he came closer to me, I saw that it was Peter Gzowski. What a dick!
