yeah because everyone knows you can't do any fine arts or arts management or graphic design or animation or multimedia type courses at uni under a BA. Most people would think, Bachelor of Economics, well that's what they qualify in. Bachelor of Business, fine. Bachelor of Science, ok some...

Find another uni for compsci if you can. It wasn't great when I did it. Also make sure you want compsci not IT. Armidale is like most country towns however if you live at a residential college the social life and alcohol will be enough to ensure you don't pass too many subjects due to the...

He's probably a trainee, if not then he is silly.

Make sure whatever you get will do the highest resolution of your monitors at decent quality. Some cheap KVMs won't do high res video very well.

I love rambling on about stuff :) Gets my mind off of having to mark all these assignments and doing paperwork.

True for wages, I am used to seeing salary package situations where they either state "+super" or "including super". Also the official rate has been 9% since 2002-03. That is unless the person is under 18 and working less than 30 hours per week or earning under $450 a month, in which case...

Worked for an aerial agriculture company as a marker. Which is basically a ground support person. The company would get a series of jobs on various farms and they would send me out there to mark out where the fields are with lights. The planes would then go spray all this shit on the fields...

Don't forget they take Super and tax out as well.

If you have anyone watching your house you know to buy new toothbrushes when you get back anyway :D But yeah if no one is watching the house while you're gone then you're stuck.

Get the person who is watching your house to look for it next time they are going through all your personal belongings (don't think they're not doing it anyway).

I used to do seriously insane work during uni holidays. 10-16 hour shifts 7 days a week from late November to middle of February. Only had a break on Christmas day and when it rained (4 days all up). It was great money, only way I survived was with parental help, i'd head off to work at 5-8pm...

To me: Commerce is more devoted to the transactions between entities. That is in a commerce degree you will hit more of the accounting, finance, commercial law, banking, e-commerce areas.. Business is more about the overall internal operating environment focusing more on things like...

It does come with experience, but if people have closed minds on what to expect and how they want to behave they will be in for a rude shock when no one outside of their special interest group cares. Even if she told you that you came across like a complete tool you can ask her why she feels...

Full time trainer, part time consultant.

Damn and I already have a good job :D Frigid it's not bleak it's reality, as I have said before, a lot of times uni grads are no better off than HS grads because neither really has much of an idea of what the real world is like.

You don't seem to understand. In an interview YOU ARE SELLING YOURSELF. You are hoping the company you are interviewing for will lease you for a while so you can continue life in the rat race. What did you think interviews were for?

It's better to find this out in an interview than once you are hired and on the payroll. They can always not hire someone who they think would be a problem ego wise than deal with it afterwards. To present yourself in the best manner possible for the position. If you want self righteousness...

Maybe she wanted to see how you faced unwarranted criticism? :) Nothing like telling someone they suck to see how much they think of themselves and how they handle themselves when under attack. So they told you that you ranked 1st in academic results and relevant prior experience but you...

In a workplace you never rely 100% on your existing knowledge, showing that you can do well in a test or assignment does not mean you know how to talk to team members or gather support and assistance from other departments. Also if you hit the books 24/7 to get marks good for you, but there is...

Nothing to see here move along. A lot of time uni graduates are like those who finished Year 12 and think they can get in wherever they want. It just doesn't happen that way for everyone. The whole scene is competitive especially around graduation time when a whole bunch of new people join...
