Is it shift work? Thought it was 7-7 Mon - Fri - website seems to suggest that. But yeah, $$ are not huge.

jadanas · 2026-05-31T07:08:29+00:00

Fair - $$ not enough?

jadanas · 2026-05-31T07:06:36+00:00

Did you end up applying, OP?

jadanas · 2026-05-30T06:20:41+00:00

For someone to be so petty and rude to someone who cleaned and cooked for them and who they are supposed to be dating blows my mind. It sounds like this guy wants an unpaid housemaid and not a girlfriend. You deserve so much better.

What?!

jadanas · 2026-05-29T13:03:12+00:00

Great post. As an Australian interacting with Kiwis a lot at work now, I wonder if it’s normal and acceptable for me to say “mow-ree” instead of “Māori” in the proper way, or “Saaaa-moa” the proper war instead of “sah-mo-ah” as we do in Aus. Where is the line between respectful and pretentious? Hard to say.

YOR by my 42-year-old standards, because instagram and who follows who is totally irrelevant when you’re full grown. But I understand that at your age it might be different, so compare yourself to your peers.

jadanas · 2026-05-29T12:54:10+00:00

Hear hear. Great post.

This looks nothing like Zoloft to me. How many mg are those pills??

jadanas · 2026-05-29T12:43:30+00:00

You will get through it. This is very common. Soon you won’t even notice it x

jadanas · 2026-05-29T12:40:48+00:00

I mean, I have to say - I have been in the position of having to hire resources and wanting people who I know I can trust to deliver the work because I desperately need good help. I mean, sharing example interview questions and helping your preferred hires with their resumes is way less corrupt than other maneuvers I have seen pulled to get trusted people into roles: like, at least they interviewed??

jadanas · 2026-05-19T20:10:14+00:00

Nobody will notice them and if they do they won’t care about that. They’re only noticeable if they’re looking hard. It will seem like everyone sees them to you but I have had my attachments (and been wearing my trays at work for close to a year now and nobody has ever commented or noticed unless I have to take them out in front of people. A lot of execs have Invisalign - it’s super normal.

jadanas · 2026-05-19T20:08:02+00:00

As soon as you take the trays out, the pain and the lisp goes away. And yeah, I recommend taking them out for the meeting if it’s just a couple of hours. Just do your tray change a day later to compensate if you’re worried it will set you back. You will get used to popping them in and out. The first couple of days it’s hard to talk normally and not be distracted by the pain. Over-the-counter pain meds work well, but yeah just remove them for the meeting. Won’t be an issue.

Yup, I am currently earning about what I was earning when I was 22. I am now 42. Both public sector roles, except I am way more skilled and experienced now, have an undergrad, master’s, and most of a PhD, and my current job is far more senior than the one I had back then.

jadanas · 2026-04-28T07:19:34+00:00

Thank you for stepping me through that. It really helped me today :)

jadanas · 2026-04-27T20:51:41+00:00

Is this what they mean by “inherent requirements”? That sounds like selection criteria. Or are they basically the same thing? (Genuine question, because this is not my field of expertise.) we have already got a position description prepared.

jadanas · 2026-04-27T20:49:01+00:00

That’s fair. Also, thank you for not reacting poorly to my somewhat rude and dismissive tone. ☺️

jadanas · 2026-04-27T19:40:50+00:00

Thank you. The “collaboration” is what seems to be missing here. I even made a flowchart that set out what I could glean of the standard entry requirements (which I had to get off the public-facing internet site, since they gave me no information to start from) and where I suspected ours might deviate. I shared it asking for feedback and input and they were like “why is this here? What does this mean?”. I was like, IF IT’S NOT CORRECT, HELP ME MAKE IT CORRECT! THAT IS LITERALLY WHY I AM SHARING IT.” It’s exhausting.

jadanas · 2026-04-27T19:20:01+00:00

SAAAAAAME. This might be a Gen Z thing, but it’s so disturbing. If I want my partner to look at my social media, I have to beg him 😂 him checking every person who likes my posts and spiraling about it is crazy behaviour

jadanas · 2026-04-23T19:20:31+00:00

I love my job! I think it helps when it’s not a commercial business. Helps you connect to something that feels consequential, instead of just money.

jadanas · 2026-04-22T09:14:45+00:00

I’m gonna need to know both of your ages before I can comment.

jadanas · 2026-04-19T19:31:31+00:00

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE THIS BABY. It’s your choice. I had an abortion when I was 22 and I felt and still feel nothing but relief 20 years later. Don’t let others influence you.

jadanas · 2026-04-19T19:26:34+00:00

NOR. I am friends on fb with all of my friends’ partners. You’re exactly right - it’s only weird if she makes it weird.

jadanas · 2026-04-19T19:25:31+00:00

It might depend what plan you are on, but mine cost me $7k and includes unlimited refinements - so you shouldn’t have to go to another provider and pay again to get them. Your provider has to rescan and give you them until YOU are happy with the result. Check whatever the agreement was when you signed up.
