Mother's Day Show

Michelle from Linton

Hi everyone, how many people would be interested in taking their mums to a show on Mother's Day? The Loop Restaurant and Bar (formerly the old RSA) are having a late afternoon/early evening show for Mother's Day. You can have a meal beforehand if you wish and then enjoy the music from the good old days. (60's and 70's era) I think they may be selling tickets for $10. I think this would be a wonderful outing for our mums. I am lucky enough to have 2 special mums in my life which I know will enjoy this. Would love to see you all there. Spread the word and let's do something nice for our mums 💕

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?
