Aotearoa Weekly Kōrero 20/9/2024
Last weeks thread here
Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!
This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.
It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:
Something interesting that happened to you Something humourous that happened to you Something frustrating that happened to you A quick question A request for recommendations Pictures of your pet A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule) So how’s it going?

Hot Top New Old Controversial terraborra @lemmy.nz 9mo ago Been off on stress leave the last couple of days but I’m lucky to have an extremely supportive manager. They let me take the days off without using annual or sick leave. Also found a good psychotherapist through work’s EAP services which has helped.
Dave @lemmy.nz 9mo ago That's really cool they let you do that. Hopefully you're feeling less stressed, and not sitting at home worrying about all the work that's piling up.
terraborra @lemmy.nz 9mo ago Part of the stress is that there’s no funding for the next 3 years and therefore very little work. There’s a wave of redundancies that’ll be announced this coming week.
Going to be tough.
Dave @lemmy.nz 9mo ago Good luck, hopefully you'll get through unscathed.
terraborra @lemmy.nz 9mo ago Thanks. Unless something has drastically changed I’ll be safe but will be losing a lot of good colleagues.
Dave @lemmy.nz 9mo ago Yeah that's usually the way. All that institutional knowledge gone.
