💐A heartfelt thank you💐
To all of the wonderful people down at the Henderson Vaccination Centre and all the rest nationwide, from the meeters and greeters, the admin staff, the vaccinators, the staff at the end and let's not forget the wonderful people on the Covid Hotline - 💗THANK YOU💗
For the hours you all put in, for the patience you have for all quirks and queries from us all, for all of the different languages you have come up against, for EVERYTHING you do and have done to make our time getting vaccinated such a stress free and reasonably pleasant experience.
Of course thanks should always go to everyone on the front line, but today all of the vaccination team ABSOLUTELY ROCKED!!!
From the people in the 'appointment' line when they should've been in the 'walk in' line, when people turned up not wearing a mask right to the elderly couple who wanted to carry on in their car to a carpark of their choice and almost taking you out - even though everyone was shouting and waving at them to try and stop them and let's not forget the black and yellow bar they were determined to drive through; you all took in your stride with a smile on your face (albeit hidden by your masks).
Your professionalism and genuine compassion as well as friendliness was most welcomed and noticed.
💐💗Thank you all so very much💗💐

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