Community projects wanted. Mens Shed Auckland East

Douglas from Glendowie

Do you have a community project we can help with?

Mens Shed Auckland East Inc undertakes many community projects, large and small.

We have 170 volunteer members with a wide range of skills and can work in wood, metal, and many other materials. For example, we build and repair play equipmenSkiled people at t for Kindies and schools, build outdoor benches for hospices and public spaces, make cubby hole arrays and notice boards for churches – and we have just completed our 6,000th rat-trap as part of the Predator Free NZ initiative. Our charges are very modest and reflect our volunteer workforce. Note: we are not a “repair shop” providing services to private individuals.

For examples of the type of work we do visit the projects page of our website. www.mensshedaucklandeast.org.nz...

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
