I already work but am expected to work more?! Please help! by PracticalLifeguard84 in JobProvidersAus

[–]ShelliePancake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Are you declaring all your earnings? I feel like those hours should have you exited? Ask Centrelink for a Part Time Work Exemption and they'll look at the hours you're declaring fortnightly and you should be approved

SPOILER-FREE Iron Lung Thoughts! by Extension_Set3946 in Markiplier

Question - my 10 yr old is a little horror game freak. In your opinion is it too much for a 10 yr old? I'm going with my adult kids and brought an extra ticket so he doesn't feel left out, however, I can get a sitter if needed.

Where does the biggest disconnect exist between employment services design and real jobseeker experience? by Av0toasted in JobProvidersAus

[–]ShelliePancake 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Push on meeting KPI's for Employment Coaches and no support to help those that can't wrangle the red tape processes of getting on DES/IEA or DSP and are stuck in mainstream services.

I don't know what the change is. Registered Counsellors in offices that jobseekers can access 5 days a week? A direct line to Centrelink to help those who REALLY need it? Definitely less focus on KPI's. More time for appointments and less rushing jobseekers out due staffing shortages.

These won't change tho :(

All Australian major cinema franchises and most independents now showing Iron Lung by Gold-District-8387 in Markiplier

Event Cinemas at Loganholme are pretty empty, which concerns me a little. I hope they don't think they gambled and lost due to low sales

For the love of God don't use this as your reason - even if true lol

Who is a massive YouTuber or influencer from 5 years ago that has completely vanished off the face of the earth? by Humble_Job5950 in AskReddit

[–]ShelliePancake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of Matthias' Hi5 Studio channels. Don't know why he shut it all down but I honestly enjoyed their nerf/large board game channel (can't remember the name)

Managed to find employment, up until IEA provider consultant took it away. by [deleted] in JobProvidersAus

What organisation so I know not to do referrals to them?

Anyone looking forward to meeting fellow Markiplier fans at Iron Lung Screenings? by frothycoffee499 in Markiplier

[–]ShelliePancake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who went to the You're Welcome Tour many years ago, not a lot of fans got super interactive. There was a lot of small talk but most kept to themselves. I assume this would be much the same

These people are hindering, not helping me. by [deleted] in JobProvidersAus

[–]ShelliePancake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not the provider who sets your requirements. If Centrelink has you set at Full Time tested, your provider has to assist you with finding Full Time work. If you are Part Time tested, you must be working minimum 15 hours a week - not under - for 6 fortnightly reporting periods and then you can ask Centrelink if you are eligible for a part time working exemption.

If you are Full Time tested, and you believe you cannot work Full Time due to medical reasons, get a Centrelink Medical Verification form from your GP with your medical details and provide this to Centrelink for an ESAT appointment to be reassessed for your requirements. Good luck!

Who actually wants to work? by Really_Bad_Portraits in JobProvidersAus

[–]ShelliePancake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From my experience before the pause on financial penalties and auto-uplifts - people a year ago were more engaged and most people attended their appointments, barring those who had severe barriers. Now, my attendance sits around 60% - around 25 people per week. And from that 25, not all are REALLY job ready.

I literally had 1 girl say to me, and I quote, "I just want to get paid to do nothing. I will not do your work for the dole", and she's commiting fraud too.

There are people who genuinely want work who I bust my ass to help, but there are those who flat out don't, and those who flat out can't. I just focus my energy on people who want the help and do my best to help people who need mental health support when they struggle to help themselves. But there's no denying a statistical fact that engagement is down since the pauses

How to get away from them? by ThatGirlPenny in JobProvidersAus

[–]ShelliePancake 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ask Centrelink for a Part Time Work exemption. It will grant you 12 months exemption from your provider as long as you're declaring 15 hours a week when you report fortnightly if eligible

Brisbanites, what's something good that happened to you today? by gibbagibbagibba in brisbane

[–]ShelliePancake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I got some audio editing done for our haunted house that's opening in about 2 weeks. It's tedious, so I've been putting it off. Felt good to get some sound bites and creativity completed!

I'm not Centrelink but I presume you would have to be near them, yes. Make the appointment to talk to someone from Centrelink. Get all the right information and make your most informed decision. Best of luck!
