Exciting news

Exciting news

I didn’t know where  else to put this but I wanted to let my mates know here that I just recently got a promotion at work, I put in the effort and got a good return back 

 

I will be  Lead Gardener when I go back to work from family leave, which means I will still be on the tools but get to help out with a few operational things a bit more including the opportunity to make some more decision around what some of our spaces look like, and also mentor our very small team which will eventually include an apprentice, and we identified a few things I could do with some improving on which they can help me with 

 

One thing I really want to achieve is working with some of the higher up people to have our grounds and spaces reflect culture better, even like artwork on outside walls or plants 

 

Im really happy and this will really help my family as it’s a pay bump and at least an extra day, sometimes two,

maybe I will get my landcruiser one day if I can keep it up

Re: Exciting news

Yes my day is very lead by me as long as I get my tasks done I have an iPad that has the requests on it I also do general maintenance tasks, I will now get more of an opportunity to lead the team and delegate and also making sure we have what we need for projects

Re: Exciting news

Maintenance could be a resident needing a hook on the wall or a door catch replaced, or you know little things like that, even sometimes they ask me to come help with the tv because they see me as some tech wizard because I can turn the tv from HDMI to free to air
