productive
Jul. 22nd, 2003 12:06 pmWell this morning was interesting, I had an appointment with my "personal advisor" from Centrelink, 8.45am.. I rock up, my "PA" had not arrived yet, and on top of that, the computer system was also down.
So he had to remember off the top of his head, basically all the questions that he had to ask me, then we got onto what I'm doing now, what I want to be doing, my business plan, I explained to him all about internet telephony, and web cams, IRC, ICQ, YAHOO etc etc.
He was actually very informative and helpful, which has not been my usual experience with Centrelink, he's going to send me info about N.E.I.S, which is a scheme for people who want to start their own business.
So all in all, it was a productive meeting, almost an hour.
Then I came home and did

Unfortunately the enterprise has to be "reputable" and I'm not certain what the government's definition of "reputable" might be.
