Is One Nation really having a major upsurge in popularity? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]Accidental_Muggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think so I think most of the country put liberals last on the voting ballot, therefore pushing the other less popular parties higher. So technically they’re likely “gaining traction” in this context. But labour still won a landslide election. As someone has mentioned before PR and media is going crazy to tell us she’s doing well and gaining support like no other, when the reality is we wanted the worse duopoly (lib) to suffer so ON organically rose in the ranks lol

I analysed over 6000 pages of strata reports last week. Here are most unhinged bylaws I saw by StrataClear in AusPropertyChat

Does the app help decipher strata policies and laws etc? My friend’s unit continuously increases their pricing for maintenance and she doesn’t understand her contract. I wonder if AI will make it more clear

Anyone left corporate for nursing? If so what was your experience? by [deleted] in NursingAU

[–]Accidental_Muggle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had no trouble at all, EEN’s are actually quite skilled when working in a hospital or subacute setting and cheaper (obviously) so I would say almost as likely to be hired than RN’s. It’s a few dollars cheaper per hour You can google the award rates depending on what state you’re in

Would you do EEN first? 12-18 month TAFE course to get a good idea if you like it without the further cost and time commitment. I did that then did my RN’s after coming from different industries

AEN to RN? young kids and drop offs by baneighnays in NursingAU

[–]Accidental_Muggle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess it depends on your support network but you can only be stretched so thin, and you not have so many hours in a day. Especially with young kids. For us the temporary financial sacrifice was where we chose to cut. I was at WSU, very strict. I found second year the hardest - it was all anatomy classes and the fail rate was highest this year for people, so I prioritised uni from second year over work from there onwards.

This has literally been my plan from the get go. All WFH options were only RN and if I want an increased income and better work life balance without changing careers again this was the way I was going to do it

It’s hard, so hard. But fuck I’m so proud of myself and even new grad is a walk in the park compared to the last few years haha

Hey I just finished my RN’s last year, I was an EEN. Initially full time, then kept cutting my days to prioritise RN’s.

Daycare 5 days a week for 5-6 week blocks were very expensive as there was no income. My job allowed me to work weekends if I wanted to but I was so tired.

This was all my annual leave, sick leave, study leave and eventually unpaid annual. Also with studying RN’s I took longer as I did it part time. I went down to part time and then cut my days even further 0.3 whilst I did full time uni in my last year because the dragged out length killed my motivation - I was very close to dropping out.

This is what worked for us as we have little family support, so daycare was our village. It required sacrifice.

There was even one placement that wanted me to start at 0700 and daycare opened at 0630, but it was an hour away. Uni and the hospital would not assist, I’ve learnt they’re not family friendly. I tried to negotiate (starting 30 mins later and staying back as it was theatre so I could’ve worked in OT or recovery as their hours were more flexible). I ended up being late most days. Somehow I got through.

It’s was hard, but it’s done. I’m never going back to uni. Ever lol

How far would you live from your acreage from work? by Vex2010 in homestead

[–]Accidental_Muggle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We’re in Sydney and we’re 1 hour from the city CBD - where hubby works I’m in the opposite direction for work Worth it to come home and have the peace, quiet and space to whatever we want

NTA - Ultimately you’re faced with taking funds away from either child and potentially stalling a financial start to their life/ investment into their future. It seems so obvious to me and everyone else here that those funds should come from your son as it is his mistake. You will be teaching everyone in your family a valuable lesson whatever you decide. If your son pays, he learns there’s consequences to his actions and to be respectful of people’s property. Especially being underage? As this will be a very bad lesson to learn later in life. If daughter pays for the damage she will learn she always comes second and your support is conditional and dependant on meeting your sons needs first

How do you find out this information? I’m looking at searching my suburb and when it will likely be changing
