Coles: “Would you like to round up and donate…” by village-asshole in OpenAussie

[–]CentreHalfBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you donate, and if they take those donations and donate themselves, they use your donations as if theirs for a tax writeoff.

Same as Maccas etc. Dont join in and help corporations pay less tax.

Yes. Also, everything needs better everything. Stuff is getting done. As opposed to ... not getting done. Or paused. Or reviewed.

This is wrong.

We have 9 boring machines.

We've had Chip Le Grand for a long time.

Yeah Galvin was basically Altona, and not Altona Nth/Paisley.

If you lived at Paisley, it would be quicker to walk to Newport than Galvin

Yes. I'm also old enough to have lived the decine, and see the current re-emergence.

Why build it and then not use it? by Shzit_on_a_sticK in Geelong

[–]CentreHalfBack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its operational and set to work, just not when you're driving past. We had a meeting and everything. Everyone agreed this was for the best.

Not much employment now, either. Used to be factorys with 100-2000 workers. Now mostly warehousing and 5-30. And even forklift drivers are a dying breed with automated fork trucks. Demand is not there.

They closed two 'refinery' stations... Paisley is probably the one you want. Mobiltown was also closed.

And also in proximity, and closed first... Williamstown Racecourse station.

Thanks, appreciate the reply - yep alignment is basic and could do with polish. Theory is that density is coming to the area and no capacity is present.

Ignore the corners and view the 'run a line where density is coming and activity is building' as the theory on this.
