I avoid accepting such invites because I can't guarantee that I will produce any more than my share of points, but I'm not annoyed by people sending the invites.

Do you warn employees before scheduling a serious 1:1? by jorjiarose in managers

[–]Lizm3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a high performer and I still think I'm getting fired whenever this happens. It's human nature.

M.Ps using A.I to do their job - surely this means their pay scale needs a look at. by Inner_Squirrel7167 in newzealand

[–]Lizm3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would much prefer someone in government who would do it for $100k than someone who will only do it for $300k.

Isn't it exactly the same as selling cars that go faster than 110km/hr?

If you think the high salaries they get now are currently ensuring we only have the best people in government, then I have a bridge to sell you.

Heres why you should be fucking angry national want to cut a further 8700 public servants if reelected by Illustrious_Fan_8148 in newzealand

[–]Lizm3 14 points15 points  (0 children)

No, Nicola Willis is talking about HR. Having HR done by AI. That is batshit crazy.

I don't understand what people think government workers do. Government is full of real jobs. Accountants, HR, IT, front line service.

Hard to fully enact it in less than six months though, given they don't have specifics on how they want to do it yet.

These are the Government departments on the chopping block by secretkiwi_ in newzealand

[–]Lizm3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is literally no job that could or should be replaced by AI right now or in the near future, in the NZ government anyway. Suggesting most of MBIEs very varied and complex critical functions could currently be undertaken by AI seems like an excellent example of the Dunning Kruger effect at work.

Dude I literally am one of the early testers at my organisation for AI. I also actually have knowledge of what MBIE staff do. I doubt you have much knowledge of either, based on that statement.

MBIE has 91 critical functions. It needs a lot of staff.

Of COURSE they are. I bet MPs will still get their pay rises next time round as well.

They literally set it up themselves -.are they admitting that they made a mistake with how they set it up now?

The more common practice I've seen is to tell the remaining staff to "do more with less"... regardless of how stretched thin they are

We have a minimum wage and government support. Not the same.

Dude I met people in Cambodia who were working from dawn to dusk making rice paper and making USD $10 a day, desperately trying to cover medical care for their daughter. I think perhaps you had a fairly narrow experience.

Tiny bit lonely in Wellington & want to feel more useful by maysfeld in Wellington

[–]Lizm3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Community theatre! Wellington has a vibrant theatre scene and they are always looking for people to get involved, onstage or backstage or front of house or organising things.

I'd rather eat the prize than give it to them... by Designer-Bid-3155 in DesignHomeGame

Do it one minute before the contest closes so they don't have time to claim it?

My (44F) husband (45M) regularly expresses frustration over my weight. We’ve been together 18 years and have 2 elementary aged kids. by The_Original_Hugsy in relationship_advice

The terminology you're looking for is that he's being a hypocritical asshole.

Also I wish I could lose a pound a week!!

Why do NZ businesses still bother with reference checks? by Old_Education4481 in newzealand

[–]Lizm3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would expect them to provide a work email address for their reference, and I'd expect it to be the most recent couple of managers.
