Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So how’s it going?
I mean, your job probably will get sledgehammered. Just look for employers that always seem to be hiring.
Ain’t that the truth. Or the ones that have been advertising for 3 months straight.
But I’m not sure I’m built for the contractor/project hopping lifestyle. Maybe I need to change my attitude about that stuff. I’m very precious about building good foundations and that sort of thing
I live in Wellington and jump from project to project. I’ve only been doing it a couple of years, but you regularly end up working with people you know because all the projects are just recycling the same staff. Networking and relationships are surprisingly important. I didn’t start until we were in a place we could live on one income, though (my wife has a permanent job).
Maybe something to look into when my wifes position stabilises. I’m in Tauranga though so the critical mass here for IT employment may not be sufficient.
