88e announcement without mention of gushing oil. Price has crashed hard.

Hideous reaction to otherwise positive news...or as DW called it...neither materially positive or negative. Based on that, I topped up.

Still not convinced it isn't market makers shaking a tree for cheap shares but eh, 88E's base has always been shaky and when the snowball starts tumbling...

The HC geeks seem to think it's good on the whole and that artificial lift hasn't even been implemented yet which is our lifeline for the gush.

All wills can be contested if you had defendants and shitty family members who want to vulture your possessions

Unrelated, this guy...stop in and say hi flamin mongrel

If only we had 4 day 10hour working days... that would be perfect. 

Katie had that at the kids hospital then  12 hour shifts in western health for even less days attending work.

When I was Telstra support we had it for the last couple months prior to me leaving, I had my roster for 2 on 1 off 2 on 2 off, was perfect. every day was either just had time off or time off the next day so much less stress.

big fan of the idea really.

I've been an advocate of the 4 day fulltime week for a long time. Would happily take the extra hours. Remember it's not just one extra day a week to do shit you wanna do, it's one day less work too. Let's face it weeknights are mostly wasted.

Used to work 3-4 days part time and that was the best work life balance.

Skyline, nah cant trust society and these loose laws on scumbags so rather not have the headache of it being stolen.
Thinking Stagea again, didn't get to have my fun with the last one due to gearbox rebuild issues and rust of a Gemini.
The dude I sold the Stagea too ended up doing some work to it.
bigger turbo... forward facing plenum... fuel setup....ecu setup ...coilovers and the good old 20inch chromies :S
I actually found it a couple of years ago on Gumtree going for $5,000. would've been nice for parts if i had storage for it.

 

ahhh I remember you fast asleep while everyone was about to leave lol

I'd love to do a 4x 10hr day week as well. Would be awesome if part time gigs were more of a 'thing' too. 

E.G if you could take 1/5th or 2/5ths off a decent wage I'd definitely go for it. 

Not only is it less work days as birds said, it also gives you the chance to go out on your own a try something new to make the $$. 
 

Y'all sounding like a bunch of office folks.

 

Speak to dezz about 36hr weeks with 3% pay increases per year or go work in daycare if you want part time.

 

Im all about dat 70hr week 12 days straight. And thats not even FIFO. 12 on 2 off fifo roster, or 3 on 1 off 84hr weeks, dawg.

Speaking of fifo, anyone been to solomon islands? Weighing up whether i should go... Doubt there would be any instagram worthy food photos to take there. Heard its pretty unsafe and quite remote. But yolo and VWLBC.

We are a bunch of office folks 

Read this today, not sure how legit it is:

https://www.news.com.au/finance/work/careers/new-research-reveals-aussie-advertised-salaries-have-grown-over-last-year/news-story/bcdbb4071ef361db1820ccb441056c8c

But apparently education salary increase of 18% in the past year, I.T 10 percent etc. how/why would this be the case? I thought it's usually 2-3%.

Also I.T apparently 124k a year average salary, I must have a shit IT job then I guess, RIP me :( 

I guess it doesn't state whether these averages are MEAN or MEDIAN.

advertised salary's....remember that's just to get interest then they give you the real offer...

 

it's like car ad's, that's just a kick off point for negotiation.

 

 

Ah true, makes sense. 

In other news those local sports teams, should be a good game tonight.

    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.
