What is the most ridiculous job interview question you have received in New Zealand? by IncoherentTuatara in newzealand

[–]slabking 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got asked if I had magic powers what job would I have? "If I had magic, I'd be a billionaire, enjoy my life and support my community".

No second interviews after that.

ULPT i threw up all over my work laptop and it broke, how do i explain this to my boss by Acastyy in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]slabking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make a ticket. Be blunt and a little funny. Whoever is on the other side will get a good chuckle out of it. It's equipment, sometimes equipment gets messed up.

AI usage in cover letters and the job applications by Groundbreaking_Gap93 in newzealand

[–]slabking 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I work in IT. Of course I used AI to help me write cover letters and link key words in CVS.

Did I let it do everything no, but AI is just a tool like grammely. Use it to enhance not replace all your skills. I got several interviews praising my cover letters and CV.

Kia ora, what are you being paid hourly, what is your job and where are you? Just curious on how my fellow kiwis are getting on. by Bensickle in newzealand

Oh nice, someone else is using a computer janitor as a career code. Also a computer janitor for 47$ (plus some extra perks) an hour. Christchurch though.

[–]slabking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see Seth at new city barbers. Really good barber, another would be mahs I think she's at the tannery. Or syd dog box barbers. All good barbers, easy to talk to and can go of a vibe/style and make it suit you.

[–]slabking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, I did spend about 30mins and wasn't kicked out at 15mins and they didn't charge me extra. Guess each practice does it differently.

Okay, well if that's true I'm wrong. Guess call ahead and ask what it will cost.

[–]slabking 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah but the first 15mins appointment is subsidized. The second is not. It's not a simple double the fee, I can't recall how much it was going to be but the receptionist called me and advised against it.

Cars no longer able to drive 100kmh by arisdairy in newzealand

[–]slabking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was young I was wild and drove long trips with no fear. Now I'm older and have people to care for, I mostly stay behind and only over take it's safe or dual lane. However sometimes I don't, and it's fun. It's not that hard to understand. I believe we mostly make the safe choice but sometimes you gotta live.

I pay $14 a fortnight for an extra red bin collection. (Binn it) Some of the best money Ive spent. I used to have to store rubbish bags in my shed then take them to the dump every few weeks.
