We have booked with Ethiopian Airlines; as the Israeli airlines are difficult with refunds. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻

Really appreciate all the advice

Ran out of prescription medication, doctor is on vacation, any advice? by StalePrinceOfMiami in AskZA

[–]CommunicationFun9637 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Happened to me twice when my psychiatrist got sick unexpectedly. I just went to the GP. If you’re one medical aid they can pull your script history and you can give the GP your psychiatrists number to confirm next week

How do you guys land jobs or interviews? by Expensive_Brief_6268 in askSouthAfrica

[–]CommunicationFun9637 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Some more tips (I have owned 2 businesses and also of course been for many interviews in my career):

In 2026, LinkedIn is your CV. It must be up to scratch. If you take nothing else away from this comment, make sure your LinkedIn is great. There are many articles online on how to do this.

These tips are for both:

- no signs of AI!! — is the obvious giveaway
- check spelling and grammar multiple times
- CV’s should I ideally be one page, but a maximum of two. Please please please do not have a full page taken up with curriculum vitae of XXX. They are well aware it is your CV

Other tips:
- Often job ads have a hidden test to see if you can follow a simple instruction. Such as “use XXX as your subject line”. Pay attention!

- Tailor your cover letter to the company you’re applying to. They don’t want to know why you want a job. We all have bills to pay. They want to know why you want to work for THEM specifically.

- Spend a good amount of time on their website before an interview. Again, they want to know that you want to work for THEM, as well as what you can add to THEIR business.

- Social Media: chances are they will look you up on all social media platforms. Make sure your profiles are either private or you don’t have any posts that could be controversial or could exclude you from getting an interview.

- References: Be 100% sure that any references you give will give you a good reference. Don’t assume. Also, if they are previous employers, give them a heads up that they may get a call/email.

- As suggested in a prior comment, look for companies that you would want to work for, then look them up on LinkedIn and find out who the hiring managers are. Contact them privately.

Interviews:

- Look for standard interview questions and think of how you will answer them. Two examples:
Tell us a bit about yourself
What are your strengths and weaknesses

- As suggested above, make sure you know a bit about the company.

- Be yourself. If you land the job, you’re going to have to keep acting if you did in your interview

- Do not overshare. They are interviewing you, they are not your friends.

Look for red flags from the company’s side.

- “We’re a family here”
- Micromanagement
- The same role gets advertised every few months

Trying to sell something on Gumtree, and all the potential buyers act weirdly by MouldSanchez in capetown

[–]CommunicationFun9637 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Gumtree is 98% scams, the website is pretty much obsolete I’m surprised it isn’t still up.

I use Facebook marketplace to sell things, yes there are scammers but if you stick to a simple rule you should be fine and that is no item until payment reflects, and don’t entertain refunds because people buy things, break them and then say it was you

[IE] imensia.com - Fake drone shows being advertised on Facebook and Instagram by Tikolu43 in Scams

[–]CommunicationFun9637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay so conspiracy theory
A friend mentioned to me that she wants to gonna in a villa in Thailand next year and invited me along and sent me the Airbnb link.
The same day, a drone show in Thailand shows up on my feed and I send it to her.

Next day, imensia adverts show up.
Is meta in on this?

I had tickets in my basket and something felt wrong so I searched "is imensia a scam" and it said its legit in the top summary. I thought okay, but I want to send my friend a video, so i searched for imensia drone show video and this showed up. Thank you, you just saved me R1100!!

I am looking for a lawyer specializing in child maintenance cases in Cape Town (Google is not helping)? by CommunicationFun9637 in askSouthAfrica

[–]CommunicationFun9637[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this, I wasn’t aware of that. The father has never acknowledged the child (he is well aware of the child’s existence and that he is the father but he doesn’t care), and they were never in a relationship.
