    excuses not to come into work

    I've never called in sick for work lol. Because I know how bad it is for the employer. My parents have dealt with crap from some shit employees for years. Here are some of our most famous examples, usually delivered very close to the time the persons shift was about to start: -I can't come...

    Politicians - What do we expect?

    See I think a major problem lies with the massive increase in the PR industry- it's very hard for the media today to get past the spin cycle. If you are in the parliamentary press gang and go out too far on a limb, the politicians cut off your access. Without any access, even to the spin, you...

    Politicians - What do we expect?

    Gender expectations are huge in Australian politics- people either want the women to be ballbreakers, and it seems to some extent that women have to abandon much of their femininity in order to succeed in any way. The way the media and the political sphere percieve and judge female politicians...

    Bachelor Of Science? - Career Pathway Help

    You can do podiatry at CSU Albury Wodonga. It's a specific degree in podiatry... apparently there is a bit of a shortage of podiatrists in many areas so it is a good profession to get in to.

    2005 World Ranking for Universities [Compiled by Shanghai Jiao Tong Uni]

    These lists are shit. How is La Trobe University, Murdoch University and University of Tasmania better than UTS or UOW... Also in the UK rankings, St Andrews was really low, but in a survey or two I read recently it was up there with Oxbridge.

    excuses not to come into work

    If they question the frequency of your periods, just start using words like "ovaries" "fallopian tubes" "endometriosis" "heavy flow" and your boss (particularly male) will not ask anymore questions ever again hahahaha Cold isn't a good one, because you usually take awhile to get over cold...

    Cash-in-hand or Taxed Wage?

    I mean, cash is great if you are on youth allowance or have a second job etc, but you would be better off on a "on the books" job. I've never had a cash job, I don't think there are many places in the CBD that pay cash. If anyone knows any who are looking for staff let me know lol.

    MIS critical thinking

    When we did it we only had to reference other things in the reader, we didn't have to do independent reading I don't think. You had to reference properly, but only the other stuff in the reader. But yeah I remember that task sucked lol.

    Haggling for the good mp3 player deal?

    on ebay you don't get any warranty or anything though most of the time.... and if you do get a warranty then it usually costs about the same price as the shops. Do you reckon I could haggle lower somewhere else for a 20gb ipod than buying it with the education discount from apple?

    Telstra and the Country

    Yes I know the obvious differences blah blah, but I basically said what my friend told me because we are lagging in terms of communications services (even in our capital cities) compared to other countries around the world. It's pretty lame that we can't even have proper mobile phone coverage...

    Don't ask for directions in Tasmania

    What a sick bastard, that's fucking disgusting. However I would like to say that not all people with mental retardation are sick/uncapable of empthy or logical thought, and people shouldn't jump to that conclusion. That should not be a factor in this trial, this behavior is truly...

    Telstra and the Country

    Um in Albury, population 45000, part of the regional centre with Wodonga (combined pop about 80000), there are some parts of the city (and I am talking about Albury city here, not out in the paddocks) where you can't get proper mobile reception. It's a much bigger problem than an old fella...

    Yeah I also think that an international studies/international relations type degree combined with law would be really good for a career in politics.
