dining table and chairs

Justin and Anna from Richmond

Dining table with two extensions.
Well used family table. Served us well for 17 years!
We've had trouble with the the legs, but have firmly fixed at least 2 and the other one (or 2?) is good at the moment.

With full extensions it can comfortably fit 10 people - maximum 12.

Length: 174cm
Width: 88cm
Height: 74cm

Each extension is 33cm wide, so the table can be extended to about 240cm max.

6 metal framed chairs included - most with homemade covers of various styles and colours! Made by the children with their own designs and abilities :-) the photo of the 2 chairs at the end is what most of them are like underneath the covers. The messy looking one is a higher one, suitable for a younger child.

Price: $50

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?
