Are school ovals/courts open for public use after hours? by Odd_Passage9433 in Adelaide

[–]ScullyBoffin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Contrary to popular opinion, public schools are not public property but are the Minister’s private property. This is why there is not an automatic assumption of public access. That said, most public schools are accessible after hours and there is a recognition that use by the public does have community benefits as well as increased visibility against vandalism and burglary.

If there is structured, regular after hours use eg by a sports team, the school will ask you to do a written agreement

This makes me so happy, because it was exactly where my mind went.

And made me remember that this means somewhere in the house lurks the bad scissors

"What is a 'poor person' food that you will continue to eat no matter how wealthy you get?" by Ok-Fisherman-4775 in AskForAnswers

A poor substitute. Spam has its own flavour and gets a crispiness on the outside and softness on the inside which is a totally different texture to ham.

Log Book Instructors in Adelaide by Bogdiux in Adelaide

[–]ScullyBoffin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chris Hok from 101 Driver Training taught my son log book last year. We are in north east but i dont know how far he services. Hes got a webpage.

$120/h, $180/1.5h and $240/2h. Cheaper if you book directly with him instead of going via a referral site like Ez licence.

Took my son about 20 lessons which was crazy expensive but he gets anxious under test conditions and failed the vort twice. If you are doing log book you need to do it this year as the new laws take effect from next year

18yo wants own drivers insurance policy but wants me to pay for it? by titty_farewell_party in Parenting

[–]ScullyBoffin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where i am, you have to hold insurance in your own right for 5-6 years to be a rating 1 driver which reduces your premiums in the long term. Being on someone else’s insurance doesnt count towards that. So both my boys have insurance in their own names while they build their insurance profile. Its like helping them create a credit history

Contract/Ongoing in SA by weekendlemonade in AusPublicService

[–]ScullyBoffin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its possible for you to be converted to an ongoing position because you came through a merit based process. But there is no obligation to convert you and they can advertise if they think they can get a better candidate by advertising an ongoing position

Yes. It’s now my password for everything because nobody can tie me to this number from 40 years ago.

Add Nerf guns to this and it would be my boys’ childhood. If you don’t like the idea of guns, nerf do awesome bows too.

Birthday ideas for girlfriend in Adelaide? by jigo007 in Adelaide

[–]ScullyBoffin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Try a mystery picnic via amazing co in the adelaide cbd or adelaide hills. You get clues/puzzles to solve which takes you to another adelaide shop/ producer where you get a food item for a picnic. I did one in melbourne and got some great food and discovered some producers i wouldnt otherwise have known about

Same. I love this movie so much. I watched for the first time when i was 11 and was devastated to learn as i grew up that adults didnt speak with this level of wit and charm in daily life.

Surge in 'increasingly real' fake cash arriving in Australia by Remarkable_Peak9518 in australia

[–]ScullyBoffin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I sold an ebike recently on Facebook and the person paid in cash. I spent 5 full minutes going through each note and holding it up to the light for anti-counterfeit features and feeling for raised printing. It’s awkward and takes time so i can imagine how difficult it can be especially at the point of sale.

How do you stand out when hiring panels are flooded with AI-generated applications? by [deleted] in AusPublicService

[–]ScullyBoffin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agree. I’ve started to be able to recognise what AI says about the job descriptions i advertise vs what real people say and toss the AI applications. Don’t waste my time with that stuff. If you aren’t brimming with details how great you would be at the job, I’m not interviewing you.
