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?

🐕🐾 ❗️Parvovirus Infection Alert❗️ 🐾🐕

Pet Vets Manurewa from Pet Vets Manurewa

Over the past few weeks, there has been a noticeable spike in Parvovirus cases in South Auckland, and we are seeing an increase in cases at our clinic as well.
Parvovirus is a highly contagious virus that causes severe gastrointestinal disease, particularly in young and unvaccinated dogs. It can progress rapidly and become life-threatening.

🐾 Common symptoms include:
• Lethargy
• Loss of appetite
• Fever or low body temperature
• Dehydration
• Vomiting
• Diarrhoea that may progress to blood in the stools
Parvo cannot be cured with a specific medication. Treatment involves intensive supportive care, and sadly, even with the best treatment, some puppies may not survive.
💉 Vaccination is the best and most effective protection.
Ensuring your puppy completes their full vaccination course — and that adult dogs are up to date with boosters — is critical.
If your dog is showing any of the above signs, please contact us immediately for advice.
Let’s work together to protect our South Auckland pups ❤️
