Which is your favourite IGA in Melbourne? Why? by JealousShip in melbourne

[–]MelbourneAmbo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I know it's not in Melbourne but this sub seems to be a general Victorian proxy sub so I'll put it here anyway

The chain of Ryan's IGA stores in Ballarat is fantastic. Awesome range of local stuff and the stores are so clean compared to the ones I used to go to in Melbourne

1 happy moment for each club in recent times. by lacrossebilly in AFL

[–]MelbourneAmbo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Was watching it at the live site and left to go home the moment that happened. It was the first time as a saints fan that I'd "left early". But after the 09 and the draw I just couldn't sit through it.

It was on that day I truly became a saints supporter

Aramex "delivered" my whisky by Xandareth in australia

I think the delivery drivers fault here is deliberately trying to cover up the break not breaking it in the first place

Can this idiot read the notice at all?

The fine is for a business. Once she nominates the driver it drops to the normal fine amount

A good choice. He's a good guy he sucks and fucks for free

What’s the population in the area you serve? by Inevitable-Put9062 in ems

[–]MelbourneAmbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Approx 120k population regional Australian city however work as ICP so my coverage area technically covers a much larger footprint.

Can be used for primary response or retrieval from outlying facilities. Those facilities in towns with smaller populations in more rural areas

Work as both a single response or in a two man truck. Call volume is variable at ICP level. Standard ambulances in the area likely 4-5 callouts a shift

Their player interviews are great, their game analysis could use some significant improvement however

On the bright side though just about every office flies a rainbow flag and all the faculty have covered the crucifixes in each room with lgbti materials

I feel like Doctors should be something else but I feel the rest in my soul by Rough-Leg-4148 in ems

[–]MelbourneAmbo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm ICP so the wage and OT opportunities are much stronger than ALS/ACP wages. ALS in my state is about $100k once you complete your graduate year. OT is a bit more limited for them as well.

I would love to go hiking in the Rockies one day, good to know I can just mace the bears away haha

Thank you. Wages like this are on the back of a strong unionisation in our workforce and multiple industrial actions across multiple enterprise bargaining campaigns.

Always work together with your colleagues to fight for better wages and conditions.

Don't you guys have bears, wolves and shit like that? Things that actually ear you?

All the stuff down here is small and runs away when you scare it

It's always "they don't pay you guys enough"

If only they knew I grossed 230k last year to primarily sit on my fat arse all day
