@Glisten it was a partnership that began back in 1999 with Mitsi joining in 2016. It stands to reason, Ford and Mazda produced the one vehicle and just labelled it as Ford or Mazda. I had a Laser and it was Mazda branded.
So long as it's not with Great Wall, BYD or Tesla, I'm happy.
One of my bosses at the big T said I was intelligent, I never thought I was any smarter than the average call centre operator 😉
Here is something a friend of mine in Brisvegas sent me - a sign at her local servo -
@TAB @PeppyPatti
Naturally I thought it hilarious.

@Glisten for me AI feels like cheating. Interview questions for me are a breeze but I understand how they can be daunting.
Another thing the big T started was BEI - behavioural event interviewing and more and more companies use it now. A question like "Describe a time when you used your negotiation skills to provide a better outcome for the company and client."
Without preparation they are horrid.
No records keeping legislation, I don't know that it will go through that kind of stuff to be honest. It's mostly been how to create a spreadsheet, how to write an email to your boss advising you have saved the customer feedback files in the correct place on the server.
Fortunately again the big T taught me well and I know the legalities and statutes of record management/keeping. Plus I worked for a company where I had to correctly scan and store records for WAPOL, health department and WA country health. That was a job I really enjoyed and would have happily stayed had I not been casual and they ran out of work.

@GezzaP it is so frustrating with our meds, how they mess with our appetites. My night med makes me hungry. Glad your hay fever has improved. I am thinking I am on the tail end of my cold, woke up with no blocked nose but as the day progressed it got snotty again!
I need to go shopping to pick up food for mothers' day so I have written out my list - yep I still use lists! - and just need to get my act together.
I hope you get enough sleep and your day goes well xo

@TAB hope your day goes well Tab, shopping and completing my assessment is all I have planned. That's enough!
Fuel at $2.25 a litre today, why did I buy a diesel again?!

Sounds tasty @SmilingGecko . I feel
much better today. Walked to the supermarket and chemist in the morning. Then just now I went back in the car to get bulk toilet paper and a few other things. Had lunch and done the dishes. Back is better today after acupuncture yesterday. Going to take myself down the pub for a couple of hours then come home and watch footy. I will walk to the pub. I had 2 parcels today both for puss. I have been trying out different foods for her as she is so fussy. After I completed my chores this morning I had a nap so feel good this afternoon. Pleasantly happy today. Not irritable like before. I feel the change to my med is working even if I’m not yet sleeping as much as I’d like. Hope your afternoon is going well and you get out for a walk.
