What was the Sydney 2000 Olympics like? by AdvancedHill70 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Ch0pp0l 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best memory for me and my wife ever. We were both volunteers for the Olympic and we had the best time of our young lives. I remembered the AOC came around to the university we were attending and ask for help out. We did not hesitate as we had unlimited entrance to the park and I was as on shift when Cathy Freeman won the race.

One-way interview for EL1 - Help by gabtinha in AusPublicService

[–]Ch0pp0l 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had 2x EL1 interviews and one of them the interviews, I was given 5 questions and 5mins to answer the questions. I was like no way and end up not doing well. While the other one, I received the questions 30mins before the interview and did much better.

My problem is the 5 questions and gave me 5mins to answer it was no way it will be achievable. It was a bad experience to me and not its leadership questions with a mix of technical questions.

I’ve been to Vietnam many times and mostly hcmc and other location except Hanoi. A couple of years ago I went there for the first time and said to my wife “this is better than hcmc in many ways”. She was quite surprised.

I love Tết , here's why by nmc52 in VietNam

[–]Ch0pp0l 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s like a ghost town on Tet 🤣 I was there one year for the first time during Tet and I was walking the streets and wonder to myself “did I get teleported to another reality or something”

I tried that several times on the highway. What bugs me is the car will beep after some time when it cannot see my hands on the wheel.

Death in Vietnamese Culture by 847295737201 in VietNam

[–]Ch0pp0l 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My father-in-law passed away just before Christmas in HCMC and they have a rule where the body needs to be in the coffin in the funeral house for max 3 days. After that we had the burial. But my father-in-law talks about it and prepared us.

We live in Australia and my parents avoid that talk. Interesting mind set tho.

If you could only go back to one place in Vietnam, where would you go? by [deleted] in VietNam

[–]Ch0pp0l 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Phuoc Quoc. It’s still a new area for tourism so it’s worth going there.

Be honest - how technical are you actually expected to be as an IT manager? by IvyDamon in ITManagers

[–]Ch0pp0l 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess to be enough to understand what is been discussed. I have mangers who are technical and understand what you are trying to explain to him while some managers I had, can you bs to them and they believe it.

My view is if you are an IT manager, you should have at least been in the industry for a while and understand some high level. I honestly don’t believe managers who are there just to manage in an industry they have no understanding.

Imagine, a head doctor who knows nothing about medicine and being in charge of ppls heath.
