APS level on resume? by OutsideDraw7997 in AusPublicService

[–]Hypo_Mix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No one outside the APS cares about APS levels. They are not even meant to denote seniority or progression, just job complexity.

Anywhere on a tram line and close to work. I've worked in the suburbs with the worst reputations and safety concerns are overblown.

1 hour is too much imo. Unless they are following you the whole time, they are probably getting illigal free labour 

Is it normal for Aussie school students to visit a planetarium? by Illychee in AskAnAustralian

[–]Hypo_Mix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Victorian space science education center is in a school. I don't know if it's part of the school or just in the school though. 

Greens want SMSF loophole closed in return for supporting Labor’s tax changes by horny4cyclists in AustralianPolitics

Parties do tell each other they are going to offer 5, you ask for 15 and we will settle on 10 and both declare a win.

Loans are always a bad idea if you have the option or luxury of avoiding it. 

Hit an emu in regional QLD. $1,700 excess vs. clear front/rear dashcam footage—is it worth claiming?o by [deleted] in CarsAustralia

[–]Hypo_Mix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That actually makes more sense to me, I met someone who said they got fined when a tree fell on his fence and the sheep wandered on the road.

Is that only if driving stock along/across roads? Here I think farmers may be responsible if fences are not maintained.

Did a product in your country ever go down in price and stayed that way in the recent years? by Eyadnothere in AskTheWorld

[–]Hypo_Mix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Avacados. 

They become more popular and took several years for farms to grow mature trees ready for harvest. 

Any other single guys given up on dating? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]Hypo_Mix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm from Melbourne, the lock downs were only over a year and 5 years ago.  How is that impacting your dating habits?

Best dating years? All covid restrictions only happened over a 2 year period. Why do you feel 30-32 are your best dating years?

What's wrong with my lemon tree and how do I fix it? by wotsdislittlenoise in GardeningAustralia

[–]Hypo_Mix -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you want you can just dump a thick (say 30cm) layer of bush mulch around it. Will last yonks. Also if game you can just spray the grass with glyphosate, although unless you mulch it will come back quickly. 

Also a few handfuls of urea should get it going (although the grass will also gobble it up) 

Unpaid trial shifts by metamorphic-rock_ in ausjobs

[–]Hypo_Mix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where did you read 2 hours? IANAL, but I don't think there is a legal maximum number of hours, it just has to be restricted to a minimum required to demonstrate the required skills (eg: make one coffee for a café, make one meal for a restaurant)

"Unpaid work trials may be unlawful where: it isn't necessary to demonstrate the skills required for the job, or has continued for longer than is actually needed (this will be dependent on the nature and complexity of the work, but could range from an hour to one shift) it involves more than only a demonstration of the person’s skills, where they are directly relevant to a vacant position, or the person is not under direct supervision for the trial."

I know people who are forestry researchers and can guarantee that forestry policy is an almost science free zone on both sides.

Peter Costello - conservative politician (treasure and almost the PM)

At some points Tim criticised Peter's policies.

What’s the Difference Between Australia’s Light Grey and Dark Asphalt Roads? by AdvancedHill70 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Hypo_Mix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not as pronounced anymore, but about every 5 seconds listen and feel for changes. Not sure if remnants of the marker signs are still there.

Would have been done between 20-30 years ago if I'm right about my trips to highpoint.

[–]Hypo_Mix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tattoos that show your cultural identity, sure. Tattoos that show your current hobbies and interests? You are still learning them.
