    College Offers

    Got a call from Queen's this afternoon - apparently they've sent out all their first round offers, and I'm on the waiting list for second round offers. So yes! A lot of people will have their offers by now! lol

    College Offers

    Anyone heard from a residential college yet? Not sure if any of the colleges have started sending out offers, but if you've got one, where from?

    The Coles Thread

    Re: Coles Pay rate At 15 you're normal casual rate is $9.1544, but normal part time is $7.6287 At 16 it goes up to $10.1716, and normal part time is around $8.50. It annoys me that they pay that extra 0.87 cents per hour, but anyway. Your rates are higher on Saturday after 10PM, Sundays...

    The Coles Thread

    Re: Grocery at Coles Umm... at Safeway it was filling stock using the spare stock on the top of the shelves. Is it the same or similar at Coles?

    The Coles Thread

    Re: Grocery at Coles Mmm... The manager said that he would have me trained for service as well in case they need help when it gets busy, but I'm not exactly holding my breath for that training to happen. I don't know. I'm more than willing to give grocery a go, and if I really hate it I'll...

    The Coles Thread

    Re: Grocery at Coles Ugh stacking shelves. Sounds like a blast. Give me complaining customers any day. If I really hate grocery (and I did one or two shifts in grocery at Safeway, and I hated it) can I ask to be transferred to service? Or would they expect me to keep working in grocery and...

    The Coles Thread

    I had a job interview at Coles today, and they hired me on the spot, for Grocery. Other than that, they didn't tell me anything, except for something about loads? Not sure. Does anyone have an idea about what I'll be doing? To be honest, what I've been reading on here doesn't make me excited...

    The Official "I GOT THE JOB!!!:D:D" Thread

    I just got a job at Coles, in grocery. It was weird... I never went to a group interview, the store manager asked me 2 questions, and then hired me on the spot. He said he's going to email me a link to the online induction. Anyone know what I'm getting myself into? How does grocery work?

    Uni interviews and piercings

    Mm thanks. Yeah I think I'm going to wait. I'm actually really excited about it. I've wanted to go to Queen's for as long as I can remember, ever since I was really young, so to be (potentially) only a few months away is very exciting. And I guess because of that anything that would help me...

    Uni interviews and piercings

    Yes! Of course I was. God. And I'm not really trying to convey anything. I like piercings. There may also a little bit of rebellion there, from certain expectations. And no, I'm not particularly "edgy" at all. It's just something different that I've wanted to do for a long time.

    Clit... That's on your face, right?

    Uni interviews and piercings

    Hmm I think you're probably right. And thank you. That's basically exactly the sort of comment I've been waiting for.

    I hope so!! Uni would be pretty crap if they did haha.

    Uni interviews and piercings

    Because I'm impatient. Simple. But really the other reason I asked was because I wasn't sure if having piercings while I'm at a college would make anyone unhappy? I mean... I doubt it... but just making sure?

    Call me crazy!

    It's also a great way to get STIs and AIDS lol

    Uni interviews and piercings

    True. It depends on when I decide to get the piercings and when the interviews are. I can't really get the piercings until after my last exam which is mid-Nov. If the interviews are in Dec (and I think they are) I could have trouble with taking them out because it probably would not be enough...

    Uni interviews and piercings

    Haha it helped more than you know. And that's exactly what I'm worried about - I'm not expecting a uniform or anything like that, but I don't want to present as someone who would cause trouble. I really am not that sort of person (quite the opposite) so I don't want the interviewer to think that...

    Uni interviews and piercings

    I can't have piercings at my school (they're really strict on uniform), but I plan on getting a couple of piercings - lip and eyebrow - after I graduate. I'm going to apply to live at Queen's as long as I get into Melbourne, but I'm worried that having metal in my face would count against me at...

    Father & Daughter Songs

    A little ray of sunshine by Axiom? I think? :confused: Not necessarily about her growing up, but it is about her being born. BTW I don't like the Steven Curtis Chapman song at all haha. It's so tacky and lame. And by calling his daughter "Cinderella" I'm not sure if he's calling his other...

    Hmm. I haven't heard from them, and I very much doubt that I will, but I like to know as much as possible about a company when I apply to work there. So thanks for your help, everyone.
