Sorry to hear about that, tithin. Hope everything is ok (eg the Scotch is delicious) I'm in the reverse scenario as today I finished the process to put iaJunior into day care two days a week so I'll be spinning up my business again so I get to talk to adults again during the day.

I do data entry on a recurring project in which members of the Australian public participate and the written form includes their year of birth. There's a quite distinct generational divide at which people typically stop being able to write neatly. It's boomers

Not knowing how much cash you need to be bringing in I would recommend my own industry: disability support. Many disability organizations preferentially hire people who have experience caring for their own relatives, and you often don't even need a qualification to begin with. Once you find a niche for yourself it can be the nicest job you'll ever have.

Morrison should have called a snap poll It suits his style. Morrison is happiest flying solo. If what he does and the way he does it works, brilliant; if not, well, it was a lost cause from the outset, and it could have been worse if you-know-who had been leading them. For the Turnbull haters, that would be Malcolm Turnbull; for Turnbull lovers it would be Peter Dutton. There is always the possibility, in the same way that in theory anything is possible, Morrison could pull off the unimaginable to win the unwinnable. Bill Shorten as a double-barrelled risk to borders and the economy, with a combined softening of offshore processing and $200 billion worth of great big new taxes, could turn into Morrison’s John Hewson a la 1993, or his Kim Beazley a la 2001 or his Mark Latham a la 2004. The strategy that Morrison is now employing is a version of Kill Bill on steroids, one of the most potent weapons in the government armoury. Actually one of the few As Liberals, serving and retired, fearing people had stopped listening, spent summer poring over the electoral pendulum to see which seats they could win from Labor, only to land reasonably confidently on just one (Herbert), they came to the conclusion that their only option was, as a veteran campaigner put it, a shock-and-awe campaign against Shorten. A ferocious battle designed to render Shorten a completely unacceptable alternative, a weak, reckless man in hock to the unions, posing undeniable dangers of slowing down the economy while speeding up the arrival of illegal boats. When Morrison addressed the National Press Club on Monday it was as close to a political sweet spot as his government has had since he assumed the leadership. Morrison struck the appropriate tone, the content was coherent if not inspiring, and his presentation was both strong and confident. It was, mercifully, as free of hyperbole as any political speech can be and for once there was no hyperventilating. He was something people haven’t seen often enough: prime ministerial. There needs to be more of it. It provided a much-needed fillip for his beleaguered troops. The timing of his appearance, on the day before parliament resumed, with the Opposition Leader tightly wedged on an issue of strength for the government, was perfect. It was shaping as a unique situation. A once-in-a-90-year-loss of a vote by the government in the lower house on the medical evacuation of asylum-seekers from offshore detention centres begging to be cast as a victory, with the government skilfully fashioning a triumph from the jaws of defeat. When it came, the vote was humiliating. There is also no doubt the government will campaign heavily against Shorten over it, but threats of holding him responsible for future boat arrivals had a slightly hollow ring. There was something missing. The man forced by the parliament to implement the new laws it had just imposed on him in the face of the most dire threats was calling the other guy weak. The government had just suffered a defeat on a measure it had claimed was unconstitutional, which it predicted would open the floodgates to illegal boat arrivals and wreck border protection as we know it, yet Morrison’s initial response had an air about it of yet another lecture to Labor about what naughty boys and girls they were. In some respects it would have been better if Morrison had seized the initiative and called an election now on this issue. His earlier warnings that he would brook no compromise to existing laws could have been accompanied by a warning that defeat on an issue he argues is central to Australia’s security and wellbeing would have been tantamount to a vote of no confidence in the government. On Tuesday night after the vote, if he really, truly wanted people to believe Shorten’s changes were so dangerous, the Prime Minister would have made the short drive to Yarralumla before he stood up in the blue room. More predictably, Labor also had no interest in treating the issue as one of no confidence. That definitely was not part of its game plan. Everyone from Anthony Albanese down was dancing around it, saying yes it was a big deal the government was defeated on the floor of the house, but not such a big deal the government should go to an election on it. Albanese even went so far as to say the system had not been changed and there was no difference between the government and the opposition on offshore processing. All Labor wanted yesterday was for the issue to disappear. That told you there was genuine anxiety internally on this for Labor and Shorten. Labor scurried back to banks while the government kept shouting about boats. Of course border protection will still be a negative for Shorten in May when the election is expected, but it may not have the fire around it that it does now, unless a boat arrives, and even then, you can bet Labor and assorted cynics will be claiming it was waved through rather than turned back to make a political point. Yesterday, keen to counter the accusation his rhetoric was inviting or inciting an armada, Morrison did his best Stormin’ Norman (Schwarzkopf), sending a direct message to anyone thinking of getting on a boat: “I’m here and I will stop you.” It is true Morrison does have two impediments to calling an election now. The first is the NSW election scheduled for March 23, and the second is that the budget is not finished. They are not insurmountable. It is not ideal, but federal and state campaigns can be run concurrently, with the vote on different days. The budget is close enough to being finished — or it should be — given it has been brought forward to April 2. Morrison and Treasurer Josh Frydenberg could have had it wrapped in a week, then run with it all the way to polling day. Announcing a surplus in the house might not provide the government with the electoral big bang it is hoping for, particularly if Labor produces an even bigger one. It is just possible Morrison has missed a moment. Even the Australian is slowly drumming the beat of defeat.

tithin posted:Can you ping me some more information on this, where to start looking for instance? I'd love to move out of finance and into something ethical, and having experience with children with special needs sounds like I might be a good fit. What state are you located in? I only know Western Australian organizations. If you want flexible hours the nicest possible work environment and the best chance to develop close relationships with your clients I recommend residential care (group homes). A cert 3 in disability helps during the interview, but you can get by without one. A cert IV or higher is only necessary for management positions. If you want to go in with a qualification you can get them cheap through online training providers, or pay a grand or so for tafe. But many orgs will pay for your training once you have been there for awhile. Full time pay in an entry level position can get you anywhere from $65 to $85 K, more if you go into some specialist high violence houses. You also get fairly decent fringe benefits/salary packaging, and some roles grant significantly increased leave entitlements. Responsibilities vary depending on your clients. Some houses will have you doing so little that you are basically just paid to hang out, others will require personal care. It is best to go in willing to deal with showering and toileting needs. Other than that all you need going in is patience, open mindedness and a friendly demeanor. If you have experience and qualifications in finance you might try looking for finance roles (disability finances can be crazy complicated so many orgs have reasonably large finance departments). I strongly recommend going to an organization's own websites and looking at the careers section. They advertise heavily on jobs websites and are pretty much always looking for people, but the best positions are on their own websites.

I'd love to get out of private enterprise and not having to worry about being for profit.

The Libs are cooked and I think most will see through whatever sweeteners they try and load into the budget which will be a combination of vote begging and laying traps for the next Government. I agree that Morrison's best chance would have been to try and look strong by calling an election. Voters hate losers and weak leaders, clearly being scared to go to an election is in and of itself a vote loser.
