Whoretown - Now Interest Free

[-Boz-]

I've never gotten the really clanish nature of the car scene. I love Nissan's and plan on owning Nissan sports cars for a long time. However a good car is a good car. I might hang shit on V8's, rotaries, boxers, other marques sixes and fours but no more than I make knock knock jokes about RB's.

I appreciate a well sorted falcon and I will hang shit on a rat box Skyline.

[japtaxi]

just a small extension of people culture, much like my "something" is better/bigger than yours.

boz you forgot to hang shit on 5, 3 and 2 and v12/w16 Don't know what those 3 bangers drivers are thinking while driving slowest grocery shopping cart ever.

My old mans has had 6 recalls already.

That was recently? The most recent recall was for chassis rails cracking if the towbar has been loaded up to much.....Apparently its all to do with the towbar design being incorrect and that causes the chassis to crack...lol. they just put a new towbar under it.

Ive also heard many bad things about the diff. My old mans is still ok, other than having a slight whine. But he does drive like a grandpa.

[japtaxi]

jim richards is a grandpa .. so your old man must be pretty good

Camping is the best. While camping no one questions you when you wake up at 7 in the morning and crack open a beer

doesn't stop me from cracking one with breakie

[luke gtr]

Are you trying to say i have powerful balls?

Well say i didn't use the trickle function, would simply hooking up the battery for a while be a bad thing?

If im not mistaken, do you use the trickle function whilst the car is still hooked up to just top it up over a long period of time?

Don't believe so, but i do have an alarm system so i'm sure that helps chew through a bit.

trickle is for keeping it topped up over extended periods.

straight charging for too long can destroy the battery.

if it has an auto off, then youll have to keep restarting it.

spend the money, its something that will come in handy and last a while if taken care of.

Good luck boys, you have opened a can of worms now. This is a bit of a pet passion for me.

When I was 18 I was earning pretty decent money as a staff trainer for a large call centre and the work was easy as pie. I sat there and coached people on how to do their job better, showed them around ect then I had Tyler and went to living on welfare. You know what the money is shit however I do have the time to pursue other interests, I went to Uni and studied Nursing. I have the time in my day to take care of my family, which is important to me and something I didn't have back then. I want to either be paid ungodly amounts for very little work or I want to be middle class. I want to be comfortable financially but I still want to cook a roast on Sunday afternoon, I want to have the time to do my families laundry and take Tyler to whatever extra curricula activities he decides to take part in.

Private health is a real catch 22 unles your private fund is going to cover everything. I worked at a private hospital for a bit and its crazy what you get charged for (laundering of linen ect) and do you really get any better care from the doctors or the Nursing team? Nope. The food still tastes like heated up cardboard, you still get students, the Nurses are no different and if anything as a Nurse I'd rather work Public solely because I hate pretentious pricks who feel that because they're paying for a private hospital stay that I someone how don't have just as much to do as I would on a Public ward. The ratios are no different, the pay isn't much better, we still don't get our breaks, if anything we're busier because we have KPI's to work to (have to answer call buzzers within 65 seconds ect)

I don't think kids really need everything to feel loved or cared for...if anything i believe you can give your kids TOO much. I grew up in a low socioeconomic family, I didn't get garbage bags full of toys for Christmas or Birthdays but I can tell you right now that my Mother loves me. However I believe it would have been beneficial to grow up in Melbourne.

Kids need good strong role models who can teach them right from wrong, how to respect others, your environment and yourself. As an adult I can't recall a single toy I received but I remember the time my mother spent with me. We didn't go to the cinema, but we went walking or for a drive (before fuel was 1.77 per litre). Don't get me wrong I am all for a good education, and if I was going to spend big $$$ on anything it'd be my sons health and education costs.

I dont remember any time spent with parents(apart from usual gatherings), but remember many toys I got/had.

just who I am.

but, I do agree with spending on kids health and education.

[luke gtr]

I live on 300 a week. 200 straight towards car payments. 50 on fuel and every fortnight I have 35 come out or gym. Sometimes it's difficult but I still have fun and still enjoy the work I do

been there, done that.

*going to sound old*

back in my day, didnt have any 'tools for ypur trade' help from the govwrnment.

I was bringing home about 260-280 with a Saturday.

had to pay the parents board(15% of my wage).

spent a butt load on tools.

still dont think it was worth it.

[Captain Natro]

Just smashed the front of the car f**king dog owners need to buy leeshs!!! Dogs fine

[luke gtr]

Shit

Scotch!

Same. Nearly twice as much as what she earnt...

High income earner. No brainer for me really. Anyone who knows me will see that a mile away.

Life is simpler with minimal funds but I like money. I like what it can buy me. I've been on both sides of the fence and let me just say that living in a high rise in the middle of the CBD is wicked!

Yes.

Probably not

I like working for the cash that I make and helping people when I do it. I like being seen as the guy with the answers who can get shit done. I like solving problems and making lives easier. Those that live on welfare and don't give back to society can go get F88ked.

this sounds good.

not last job, one before, I was earning ok.

approx 60-70kyr(before tax)for 6 full days.

7.30-5/6.

sometimes earlier starts and/or later finishes.

the final straw was sundays.

I farking hate working sundays.

for that money anyway.

9-3, plus around 1/2hr before and after to open/close.

they made it those hours so you 'still had time for a bbq or similar'.

now, who the fark wants to work in the middle of the day, come home, have a shower because youre covered in filth, then cook a bbq in the cold night air?

no one.

absolutely no one.

so, left, took a pay cut, earning approx 50k/yr for 5 1/2 days every week.

8-5.

was better.

but, still wish I had chosen a different career path.

then I could pay others to work on my car, rather then scrimping and saving.

missus works too.

earns more per hour than I.

meh, we shall get there I suppose.

/rant, thanks for skipping.
