I'd like to have a beer with you @od810. You seem like a great dude - very knowledgeable and fair with your assessments.

My 3 biggest expenses are: 1. Mortgage 2. Groceries 3. My many visits to Bunnings to get one little thing but I come back with a boot full…

In my experience @whyisave, when someone wants to use their own biases to see a particular side of an issue, the outcome will always be…

I agree with everything you have said @od810 100%!

There were many loopholes, @Willy Beamish. Tech is not the only layer here. When policy is rushed through, it creates spaces that bad…

Hey, @whyisave, good question. I'm afraid I have to disagree with @mrdean assessment above wholeheartedly. Let me start with the final…

2 things, in my view. #1 - too many stakeholders force teams' hands into adding more content, changing a website structure or prioritising…

Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to say. Doing a really quick research it seems like the RBA is nowhere near a concept at all...it's a…

I worked for the private sector for 15 years before my first Gov position. Joining the public sector was a choice, one I don't regret. I…

I appreciate your understanding of some of the limitations of my responses. Your comment cuts right through why I keep things fairly…

Judging by the conviction in your answers and your avatar name here I'll assume you are of Asian descent. Most likely a Chinese citizen or…

Hey son, how are you?

I have never worked with the census, but I believe projects like that one, which receives a massive influx of traffic in a short period,…

I've seen it all. Weeks, Months, Years. It depends on budget first, the quality of the contractor next and the ability for leadership and…

I think the days of big consulting firms coming in and owning big projects end-to-end are coming to an end...slowly but surely. The issue…

A guy in state government can also read books and follow the news - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Credit_System

I ask that question (private vs gov) in my head a lot. I enjoy the way my work directly supports the community and in the end, it's not…

Some are testing the 4-day arrangement. Even the federal government is flirting with the idea. Managing the teams is challenging, and…

Permanent role. There are some agencies with their own salary structure. I work for one of them. I have reached the top of my tier…

Defined. You move up tier by tier. I've reached my peak and would have to move to an executive role to progress tiers now. The 4 days a…

Midweight Engineer --> Senior Engineer --> Principal Engineer --> Tech Manager --> Group Tech Manager --> Senior Solution Architect -->…

Why would Gov not have similar-sized IT departments as banks, telcos or big energy providers? It has huge challenges, and different from…

It could be anything north of $1200, I reckon. Haven't hired an architect contractor for a few years.

We had many contractors, and the new government reduced funding throughout, so we had to let go of 90% of them. The focus over the years…

You must pass a National Criminal History Check when you get the job. I had to run a few security clearances over the years when you have…

About 10 under me, 15 under them...2nd level reports. All part of my overall project team.

I don't think so. LinkedIn is an excellent employment and recruitment social media platform. It's important to have a presence no matter…
