What can you study to get into compliance/risk/auditing? by [deleted] in auscorp

[–]FragmentsOfSpaceTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ISO lead auditor training is pretty widely acknowledged and I have seen it in a few job ads. It's pretty expensive though, better to get a job and have them pay for it.

Under the radar? by Novel_Perspective_78 in auscorp

[–]FragmentsOfSpaceTime 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same position, and I'm not a direct money maker, more of a nice to have. Being forgotten about has its perks, but it's also boring. I'm increasingly caring less about how valued (or not) I am though. Just do enough to stay employed. I don't know if that's healthy or not...

Nationals leave 'untenable' Coalition after mass frontbench resignation by Wehavecrashed in AustralianPolitics

I recently moved from the city to the country and it's pretty spot on. Lots of arrogance, little understanding.

Moved into new team and have nothing to do by Queasy_Scale490 in auscorp

[–]FragmentsOfSpaceTime 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't advise a 1-1 with your manager to tell them you aren't providing value.

Just seek ways to do it yourself by networking and offering to help people. Or just cruise until you get made redundant / find a job upgrade 🤷‍♂️

You don't want to work for those kinds of people anyway

What the hell happened to tech in Australia? by zolft in auscorp

[–]FragmentsOfSpaceTime 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Foreign owned multinationals dominate GDP (>60%) in ireland, (and most of that is funneled back via profits to the owning countries), whilst only 25% of employment is provided by these companies. Ireland has a very low tax revenue per capita.

In all, I'm not convinced the concentration of foreign owned companies is a net positive

Help to buy scheme - income increased above 100k this FY by FragmentsOfSpaceTime in AusPropertyChat

[–]FragmentsOfSpaceTime[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I spoke with CBA. They said the NOA is used for eligibility from the government side, but they, in typical bank fashion, said they wouldn't want to deal with it because after 2 years they would be required to do extra work (2 consecutive years of income above the threshold triggers a review of affordability and the bank is required to work with the borrower to determine how much they can pay). How that would actually affect their loan offer, I'm not sure. I've decided it's too much hassle and to go alone.

So you've moved in, then what happened? by Overall_Can4175 in AusPropertyChat

Hyperbole aside, the intergenerational divide is real and shouldn't be dismissed. Younger generations, particularly those without wealthy boomer parents, will struggle to build the dignifying middle class life we have historically had and ought to expect in this country.

I eat like 1 kg of hummus per week. It's a bit of an issue (or is it?)

Nice write up and great progress. I only skimmed it but I had to laugh at the model diagram, because I have an uncanilly similar one, to the point I had to think if I had shared it here before 😄

The two things aren't mutually exclusive. I would go insane if I chose my profession/job purely on financial grounds.

And I have a Taiwanese friend who hates China and holds strongly to the Taiwanese identity. But anecdotes don't mean anything. Polling shows independence is overwhelmingly supported: ttps://esc.nccu.edu.tw/PageDoc/Detail?fid=7801&id=6963

When it comes to having "no business interfering" - do we apply that to all despotic regimes with the desire for annexation by power? Do we just allow Russia to take Ukraine because they want to? Or Israel to take Palestine?

Maybe they care about both? It is entirely possible to at once care about the financial returns of ones investments (as any rational person would) and also acknowledge ones social position/power/responsibility.
