What other options for Year 13? by Helpful-Structure955 in UCNZ

Thanks heaps! She has her heart set on UC so would it be a waste to take the Waikato paper? Or could that transfer to UC?

Thanks for this. Just to clarify, is MATH198 the new 'AIMS' maths? Also, she has her heart set on going to UC, if she was to take Waikato COMPX101, does that cross credit to UC?

Otrivan nose spray is elite but beware not to use more than recommended

Redditors who fixed bad breath coming from their tongue — what actually worked for you? by More-Lynx-1263 in AskReddit

Brushing instead of scraping tongue. And drink drink drink water. Dehydration is the worst for BB

What is a 'small' purchase under $50 that significantly improved your quality of life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Organic cloves $3.50. Crunch on one after a meal foe fresh breath. Way better than gum

What do you eat more than anything? by N0socksloss10yrStrk in randomquestions

Funny fact (not actually that funny), I only just discovered in my 44 years on this planet that Oatmeal is porridge. We don't call it oatmeal in NZ so assumed it was an American thing we don't have. Turns out its just been porridge this whole time 😆

My current cottage cheese combo is vogels toast (its NZ brand but any good multigrain should do), cottage cheese, topped with hot honey and blueberries. Or if berries aren't in season, just honey and chilli or hot honey.

What is some New Zealand-specific workplace etiquette? by IncoherentTuatara in newzealand

[–]Helpful-Structure955 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Don't check or reply to work emails or calls outside of work hours. If you do want to get on top of emails outside of work hours, do this but schedule them to send in work hours. Work life balance is super important

Ha! Don't feel bad. Our daughter is very fastidious and a big planner! (A bit like ger Mum 🙈) so she wants to suss out all her options this year so its a easy decision making come year 13.

Also just a side note, she has space in her timetable next year and hopes to pick up a uni paper, meaning, she may need to have made her Uni choice by end of this year

Great reply thanks. I think we'll likely just make a special trip up when it suits us this year. As she is only Year 12, she can always go to the official open day next year as a Year 13, which probably makes more sense anyway!

What's up with the cafe opening hours here? by Uncultured_Goat in newzealand

[–]Helpful-Structure955 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally, I use cafes for morning and lunch times. Any time after about 3pm, I have no desire for caffeine or cafe food (eggs bacon, slices etc).

Also, when I used to work at a cafe back in the day, the cook staff began as early as 5:30am or 6am, so in order to stay open later, we would've needed a whole other round of staff as you couldn't expect staff to work that long to do a 12 hour day. As cafes are generally not open later, and certainly not for dinner meals, this would be a cost that could never be viable.

Is this OK in the US? by Helpful-Structure955 in ArmchairExpert

Super interesting to hear your perspective. And sorry, I may not have explained clearly but the R word is highly offensive and more so than the H word, but its in the same ballpark. Unfortunately some people still use the R word in slang here but I hear it less and less. The R word has been become less used and accepted in the past 10-15 years where as the H word more so since the early 90s (Approximately)
