yeah casual would be ideal for me. Problem is that the position was explicity part time...I'm thinking that maybe I should just get the job..wait for a couple of weeks then decrease my hours. The pay wouldn't be as good but at least I'd be working somewhere decent

shite. When I worked at Bi-Lo I started off at $8.35 p/hr (extra on Sundays, public hols etc.)-and I was 14. It was much more quiet and slow paced cause it was in a remote part of town. Some fast food places really do redefine the idea of dirt cheap labour.....kids around the 14/15 age group can...

I'm going for a job interview Thursday at Starbucks and the ad said it was a part time position. I'm just wondering: what is everyone's take on how many hours this entails. The thing is that the definitions for part time and casual work are becoming so incredibly blurred e.g. I've seen job ads...

fuck. So (because they take off a certain percentage per day) do you think I could appeal against them taking off more marks than if it were handed in today? Problem is, I can't really prove that I'll have handed it in today b/c they've said the assignment is not to be submitted via turnatin. My...

K well I've got to hand in an assignment late but the thing is today is a public holiday. A very sarcastic office woman has informed me that I can submit it by the "after hours assignment box". However I'm not sure how things work on public holidays. I want to hand it in later tonight (lol) but...

lol I can't do that anyway. Urgh I haveta do 24cp this year or else I can't transfer into my double law next yr. Life's complicated. It doesn't help that the registrar people aren't open weekends. How dare they have a life :D

ew. Just wondering about the "withdrawal" thing though. Does any1 know if in a bachelor of arts you HAVE to complete the first-year 24 cp spread evenly over the two semesters, or whether you can do less in the first semester and more in the second, to make up for it...

k thanks. fuck. so, because I need to do that unit to qualify for having completed my first semester, I can't withdraw from it? Is there a way I can make up for not fulfilling the unit requirements in first semester, by doing another unit in 2nd sem? If anyone knows er that'd be gr8.

Ok so I'm a first yr and I've decided a unit I'm doing is not for me( I'm doing a bachelor of arts). I wanna change out of ling109 into say pol165 or legl100. If I do that now, will I get academic penalty? Also, if say there are assignments in those subjects due b4 the mid semester break, would...

The fact that the texts are the same will mean jack all to the marker. What WILL matter though is if you use the same discussion points, quotes etc. A related text like "alice in wonderland" is incredibly complex if you analyse it closely, and I think that it would be good related piece for...

Mate I find it quite amusing that you're an english student and you're looking for a "right" answer. 'Course it's going to b subjective. How does I.J. help move us to another place? Possible suggestions: - metaphysically (makes our thoughts transcend to another realm) - emotionally...

So why on earth are you paying to go?

I definately wouldn't say the sc means "nothing". If you do your hsc it doesn't impact as much, but it is true employers will look at your results if you put them in there. I guess it depends on whether you want to look back on a period in your life and say "well yeah I did my best" or "nah I...

Hey marchetta. Have u tutored in it b4? I don't wanna be intrusive (lol) but how'd you go in terms of grades? Thanks

Hi all. I'm a first year doing ling109 and I need a tutor ( 2x 1 hour sessions per week). I'd prefer someone who's done 200/300 level ling or above who's tutored in the subject before. With regards to rates I'm pretty flexible. Anyway, anyone who's interested please email me...

My first day was Monday. Over the period of 4 days I've learnt to sit right next to people in lectures/tutes rather than leaving seats in between, as it's (obviously) so much easier to strike up a convo. You can also do the "sorry, would you be able to move your bag so I can squeeze in...

Mmmmmmmm there will always be people like that. In Womens studies the other day this woman (who's a 4th yr) put up her hand and started talking about how she was doing this really in-depth thesis on gender issues at the moment. And as soon as she said that I thought "God, how could I possibly go...

Thanks for that. I'm just re-reading the email I got after I lodged my application-it says: "If your application corresponds to our requirements, a member of our Human Resources Department will contact you soon to advise you of the next steps in the recruitment process. If your application does...

Hi just wondering (from other peoples experiences) how long it actually takes to get an interview. I applied for a checkout position on the 15th Feb, applications closed on the 16th of Feb, and I haven't heard back from Woolies( today is the 21st). I'm now starting to think that either I'm too...

you didn't read the part where I said the guy didn't even touch my resume. And you didn't read what I said about my presentation either. I AM a 17 year kiddie lol.My younger guy friend who also went just called me-he's 15 and they told him exactly the same thing. I honestly think that...
