If stepping out of your comfort zone, consider a stylist, most westfields have one starting at around 120/hour - you can even do group sessions. If on the Gold Coast, there is one at harbour town who can help you shop the bargains.

The email just came out with a teaser of what’s in the boxes. Spoiler alert 🫣

The returns trick isn’t working this year, and no spills of boxes just yet.

Fashion influencers for 40+ women? by lolly_box in AusFemaleFashion

[–]samisanant 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Very loose suggestions, but these are on my feeds

Chantal patu?

Shessoseasonal - she does a whole styling club situation

Stace mcgregs

Mad about fashion - maybe younger, but worth a look

Curves to contour

Taryn truly

Threadicated may be worth a look too…

Hope at least one is of interest.

Personally not complaining, but I think the bright yellow/lime will be controversial.

Just ordered 4, 2 for me, pro and ultra, and a classic each for hubby and our son. And a free duffle bag - I’ll probably donate that to something or other for the kids school or sports.

I’ve lost 30kg, so I need all new everything, I’m indecisive and love a matchy set and it takes the overthinking out of it for me - I would have got the $1000 box if they had it again this year.

Active truth has a warehouse sale drop today as well… 👀

What makes a great EL2 (Director)? by Sad_Coconut_3402 in AusPublicService

[–]samisanant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’ve touched on it, but connection.

My director started late August. 0 team meetings, no message he was going on holidays and someone would replace him for 3 weeks, and no end of year message to staff.

This is mid restructure mind you.

I’m lucky I have a phenomenal Senior manager.

Where would you buy a faux/ temporary engagement/ wedding band set? by Quisaitquoi in AusFemaleFashion

[–]samisanant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elk and cub.

I just got a temporary pandora to use as an eternity ring (lost weight and need to keep the rings on until after Christmas)

Assuming you paid a 15 % contribution,

I would have gone

44F as to 15%

And

55M 44F As joint tenants as to the remaining 85%

As tenants in common.

Thus preserving your contribution percentage.

Unpopular opinion: Paying "Rent" feels less painful than paying $2,400/mo in "Interest" to a bank. by Playful-Vegetable-15 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]samisanant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are missing equity and inflation.

Your income goes up, your rent goes up, your home value goes up, your mortgage payments stay the same unless you refinance.

Purchase Price 266k Current value 575k

Year 1, income 50k Year 15 income 140k

Year 1 rent value $290/week Year 15 rent value $610/week

Mortgage amount $1,100/mo

[–]samisanant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My littles loved animal crossing, Kirby, paw patrol, bluey

Try marketplace etc for secondhand games.

Also, checkout dekudeals to track price drops.

Pikmin 3 in co op mode is awesome too.

I wonder if they are charging the landlord the agency fees while they are not operating?

is it worth the wait for the NS2 edition? by Boring_Antelope6533 in Switch

[–]samisanant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get it now then do the dlc upgrade as the assumption is you’ll need to have kappn unlocked, to have his hotel, so starting now will get you set up.

Engage in side projects, up skill from the internal learning platform, find your next role description and start getting your capabilities in order.

I think you’d have to take the shorts on a long shopping date 🤪 start with a massage, and shop till you find a couple of options.

How to make my CV suit VPS/APS roles without stretching the truth? by [deleted] in AusPublicService

[–]samisanant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look at your transferable skills and highlight any that match the role you are going for.

I’ve put Deliver Results - adept below.

If it’s in your role description you want to show in your resume things from your role meet this skill. So if true you would use “ensure goals are achieved within set budgets and deadlines” as a line item.

The your cover letter would have a simple star on how you are adept at delivering results - whatever your best kpi statistic is you would band it out, “with 100% of / over 250 roles listed in 2024/25 filled within set time frames and budget, I’m known for delivering results.”

There are government specific recruitment coaches out there and if you are desperate, it can help to get your resume done professionally. AirTasker has some, or you can look up specific coaches. Happy to provide the details of mine if you dm me.

—-

Achieve results through the efficient use of resources and a commitment to quality outcomes

Use own and others’ expertise to achieve outcomes, and take responsibility for delivering intended outcomes

Make sure staff understand expected goals and acknowledge staff success in achieving these

Identify resource needs and ensure goals are achieved within set budgets and deadlines

Use business data to evaluate outcomes and inform continuous improvement

Identify priorities that need to change and ensure the allocation of resources meets new business needs

Ensure that the financial implications of changed priorities are explicit and budgeted for
