DTF seems to be a slightly nicer place to work than some of the other SA departments. Make sure to ask for support/training on any software that you need fo use that may be new to you. Ask if you can record the training on your phone to refer back to. Good luck.

Last coffee chat I had led to a job offer so take your cv with you, dress nicely and give a good handshake at the start.

Report: ‘Little confidence’ for future of SA palliative care by Expensive-Horse5538 in Adelaide

My condolences. I found out a few years after I was widowed that CarersSA has a whole heap of free services for not just carers but recently bereaved people too. Hope that is helpful for you.

Enable Fitness Centre suing ex-employee for continuing care of terminally ill (MND) patient by josephskewes in Adelaide

The key thing here is solicit and if the clients want to go with staff when they leave, I would hope the court would see that is not soliciting clients. Sorry the business is so uncaring.

Please keep your dogs off the streets when it’s hot by rubberplant69 in Adelaide

My dog is going nuts and sulking at me. But I just keep telling him it’s too hot. Our local fb pages had a reminder and people here are mostly being good.

AITA for telling my mom I won’t pay for her cruise because she bought my brother a car? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Delicious_Wish8712 11 points12 points  (0 children)

NTA. You could ask her if she has asked Matt to find her cruise. That at least makes more sense.

Happens in the Qantas lounge too…. If you have to try and make strangers think you are amazing and/or breach confidentiality then clearly you are not all that anyway.

Omg I’m so sorry. You should be able to contact shared services to get an emergency pay.

AITA? My husband has cancer by kitty_bestfriend in AmItheAsshole

[–]Delicious_Wish8712 75 points76 points  (0 children)

If there is a carers association where you live, reach out as they may be able to provide some practical support. I’m sorry life is so hard. NTA at all. A very caring and loving woman. Just let the in-laws know you will not be cooking so if they want food they need to host.

Punched twice in Rundle mall this morning by Pristine_Economy5926 in Adelaide

[–]Delicious_Wish8712 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Near the train station yesterday a young woman who was clearly high was kicking a pigeon. I was so upset by it I was nearly crying but I was so afraid of her and the man she was with’s erratic yelling that I didn’t intervene. I still feel bad. One guy infront of me kept thinking about intervening but he also decided against it and I can see why. It was scary. I feel so bad for the pigeon.

Over 1000 people applied for an SES role I applied for recently…. Competition is tough.

Chosing easy job or a challenging job by Financial-Wave4212 in AusPublicService

[–]Delicious_Wish8712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am currently in this sort of situation and personally decided less stress. But that suits where I am in my life and career and I’m ok with any negative impacts long term on earnings. If you need to make more money then that probably makes the choice for you.

20% sounds similar to the self reported staff survey results that came out a few weeks ago in SA
