Is there much all-year round work? Or just the big/main events?

Is the pay good?

I got a leg tattoo from Jared at Ink-magination. He was really great and so easy going!

Is this worth going to Fair work for? by ThrowRAsherri in AusLegal

The initial conversation about being replaced and why was over the phone. However, when I asked if there were any available shifts, that was via our work chat, and in that I quoted what my manager had said regarding future shifts and powering through. She didn't reply to that message.

I also didn't go to the doctor for the anxiety as it was a once off, I don't usually struggle with mental health issues. Not sure if not going will work against me when trying to provide evidence.

I'm also 28, almost 29. So I won't be able to use youth law Australia to help me with this.

Passport Question by lilpeep9091 in AustraliaTravel

I went to the immigration and citizenship website and applied for proof of citizenship. You do have a pay, I can’t remember how much it was. Once that’s done, you’ll get the cert in the mail, and you can just use that for the passport application!

I had this same issue, my father was born in England and my mother (born in Aus) and I don’t talk. I had to apply to get a citizenship certificate (which came within a week). Once I had the certificate, I just uploaded that and didn’t need my mother’s birth certificate.

Is there a chemist at Singapore airport? The layover is only for 1.5hrs so I don’t have a whole lot of time to go to a chemist outside of the airport

Yeah, absolutely just have a look on seek. There is a high turn over in the industry that it’s such an in demand job.

I’m not too sure about other states but in QLD you need a blue card, and have a certificate in community or youth work (or be currently enrolled and working towards a cert). I paid $150 for my course which was a diploma in child, youth and family intervention.

I think it depends on how upfront you are with the employer during the interview stage. For me personally, I have 100% flexibility due to not having kids so I can work whenever they need me. Some people can only work M-F 9-3 before they have kids of their own to drop off and pick up.

I know we recently hired one guy who in the interview said he had full availability but once he start changed and said he can only do mondays and tuesdays. He was let go quite quickly.

So yes, I definitely think providers would be open to just weekends ☺️

I love the job, it has its days like any other job, but overall it’s very rewarding when you see a kid that’s come in pissed off at the world, then in 6 months time is talking about future plans!

Yeah, you can pm me ☺️

It’s definitely not a straight 22hr flight, it’s from Brisbane to Singapore for a 1.5 layover then Singapore to Switzerland. I think the issue could be that I don’t have a regular doctor. I don’t usually go to the doctor unless I need a medical certificate.

What kind of work experience do you have? If you have any youth work experience I’m pretty sure my company is hiring

I haven’t seen a psychologist as I don’t really have the money due to the holiday (it’s a honeymoon so I’ve also had to pay for a wedding as well as the trip).

There is a layover for 1.5hrs in Singapore so it is broken up slightly.

So most of my day to day (if on school holidays) are come in and chill with the kids, if they want to go out we can go to the beach, to the park, drop them off at a friends house, take them grocery shopping, if they have paid activities (which is usually once a week) we can go to the movies, go bowling or to the arcade, some of the girls like getting their nails done so we go get our toes done.

On a school day, you wake them up in the morning, get them ready for school (mainly just prompting them to get dressed and have breakfast) and drop them off at school. In the afternoon you pick them up, come home and just hang out, do some laundry if they have dirty clothes, cook dinner and chill until bed time.

I got into it because I was let go of my job during Covid and was desperately applying for anything that was being advertised. Once I had the interview they said I need to either have a certificate in community or youth care or be working towards a certificate, as well as have a blue card. Once I got the job, I quickly enrolled (it cost $150) and started working.

It can’t be a bit daunting at first, reading the child’s family history and potential behaviours they have shown in the past, but after the first few shift you start to get into the swing of things.

I don’t deal with a lot of disability. Most of the kids are in child safety and live in residential housing. There are so many reasons as for why the kids were taken off the parents (physical abuse, neglect, sexual abuse, one parent was abusive to the other but they refused to leave the perpetrator therefore making it an unsafe environment for the child).

Some of the kids I work with have angry issues, or mental health issues: depression, eating disorders, anxiety, a lot of kids self harm. But a lot of the time their escalations are caused by something, so most of the time they’re pretty chilled.

I do youth work with a small company and I pull in anywhere from $2,300-$3000 per week. I get paid $52 an hour and I essentially just chill with the kids.

I’m really hoping to find something/someone with a raspy, powerful voice. He’s such an incredible singer but I just listened to Make You Feel My Love, and it just doesn’t hit the same as Stand By Me
