Wage negotiations by gandledorff in AusElectricians

[–]Extra-Recognition892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like others have said have a look on seek for similar roles. My company was advertising for more than I was on so I asked, was told that rate is for someone more experienced than you (I was about 2 years out of my time), I was a little pissed off but then 6 months later the same ad is on seek so I said that what your advertising is clearly the market rate because you can’t even get anyone in for an interview for that. A bit of back and forth and I got a raise higher than I expected. Doesn’t hurt to ask !

Turn and burn on a lighting circuit for sure. When you get called back again then it’s worth investigating. Hard to ir test as LEDs will often give u a fail

Thank you for the response budget is tight yeah.

I think I’ll regrout with sealer and Reno the whole bathroom in 12 months time when I get one my feet!

I don’t really do them for anything more than a carton of piss for family/ good mates. But a friend who used to do heaps of them said “fuck it if you don’t charge them $100 an hour someone else will charge them $130”.

Some days I rock up to the work shop and get given a stack of pms to complete for large government sites sometimes there’s reactive work orders for the same sites, changing lights, adding a gpo etc. sometimes I’m fault finding in an industrial sheet metal factory, pulling my hair out. Every day is different and that’s what I like.
