SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Flo

Reporter Community News

Flo has got a new home, courtesy of the SPCA.
"Flo the Bunny has settled in really well with us. She bonded pretty quickly with our other bunny, Jupiter, and they are now good bunny-buddies. While Flo weighs about 50 per cent more than Jupiter, she seems to have agreed that Jupiter is in charge of the bunny zone and so all is pretty amiable! Jupiter does give in and groom Flo from time to time but it's pretty clear that he's the boss! Our bunny-loving kid is thrilled with Flo and Brendon the vet has also given her the big tick! We're thrilled to have her in our whānau."

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?
