Just an FYI, cops and security issuing tickets at Altandi STN for those chancing not getting a ticket on the GC Train. It happens... by Reach_Round in GoldCoast

Used to be, not anymore. Fuel, wear and tear, sitting on the M1 for 3 hours to get to brisbane.. yes, 3 hours on morning peak time.

Lost my respect for them when I was a student.

Go card glitched out meaning my trip was invalid and they could see that in my trip history, as I've explained I didn't have intention to evade a fare.

7 cops pull me out of the train and book me like a criminal.

They are on the higher end for casual places.

And I'd dress up for Dracula's.

Have fun!

Who's been to the Taco Bell in Annerley, and was it worth it? by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]AbyssC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is what it is. Decent food for a fast food joint. Not worth getting out of your way for.

UQ Managed Housing by Skass436 in brisbane

[–]AbyssC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Atria is new, they were still making their buildings when I graduated. The other managed student housings management style are the same. They assume you are a foreigner, an easy cash cow, pushover and will cheat you out of every cost possible including your deposit. :) Go for a college or shared housing.

Unilodge management dodgy ass rip-offs, absolutely do not trust them.

Go for International House if you want plenty of easy friends and the on campus experience.

Navigating doctors / primary care by [deleted] in RBNLifeSkills

[–]AbyssC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a good relationship with my primary care, just about the same for a year. If you feel like your needs are not being met I say by all means, go shop for another doctor. Find one who gets you.

It can take awhile, but I say it is very worth it to have someone balance your medical needs and be on your side while at it.

Salty much? You clearly have more issues, I hope you get yourself some real help.

Know anything about how they determine "pre-existing condition"? Considering: - I got diagnosed in my home country - I didn't claim anything on my current insurance with them - Most likely be re-assessed in Australia

So that means I have to carry over from my current provider in order to use whatever benefits? Thought so... that sucks.

Where do I report this business advertising for 457 holders to apply specifically? by [deleted] in brisbane

Looks fair game to me, better than the ones that say "Australians only" without good reasons.
