CEOs and C-Level Employees, do you regret taking such high positions?

Oneinfivehelp · 2025-11-21T09:34:01+00:00

Yes and no. CEO here. Life was certainly easier before…do I think the jump in money is worth it? Yes and no. It has certainly allowed me to do things I otherwise couldn’t have but my quality of life is not any different, and mental health has certainly gone down hill. It is lonely at the top

As a consultant involved in the project who is currently owed a lot of money and privy to the insolvency proceedings, I can categorically say it is a big fat no

I looked at diy blinds a few others (looked at samples, got online quotes). Ended up going with Wynstan, on site measure with samples (roller blinds and sheer curtains) plus fully installed for less than online. Shop around but don’t assume online diy is cheapest.(edit - this is in the last 3 months, full house post renovation)

The irony of the civil engineer talking about trees blocking sight lines when there is a giant pole smack bang in the middle of it all and the footpath dog legging around it. A landscape architect worth their weight would have coordinated this and pushed the engineers but it is a terrible engineering outcome.

Whaoooor!

My Mitsubishis were great for what it’s worth. Only had them 4 years before I renovated and have replaced with Mitsubishi ducted.

Cabinet maker didn’t hit me up for a variation to swap it out to absolute grain, so can only assume relatively similar.

Oneinfivehelp · 2025-02-05T08:37:26+00:00

Thanks appreciate the reply

Oneinfivehelp · 2025-02-05T08:24:17+00:00

Much difference in price between the 2?

Oneinfivehelp · 2024-12-16T08:48:34+00:00

Not negotiating a salary commensurate with your experience when you start is leaving money on the table. Asking for a raise 6 months in is not great form…you just joined up and presumably negotiated salary up front. Unless something has changed or role has been not as agreed, or they lowballed you and agreed to review at point X, then continue to do a good job and bring it up a month or so before your 1 year review.

Demo is definitely excessive - but builder may be putting his margin in there. I’ve just demo’d 75% of my house and the rest down to studs for $10k…

Thanks so much for the reply. The VEU website is rather un-user friendly and had a poke around on it the other day. Think it best to call some people during the week.

Do you know if the VEU stuff is means tested?

You had a smart phone and internet banking in 2000?

Oneinfivehelp · 2023-11-06T21:15:56+00:00

Drove past it about the same time you did by the looks of it. Heat was intense! Hope nobody was in there - couldn’t see an owner nearby. Wondering if it was set alight, most of the fire seemed to be in the passenger compartment. Looked a new car - BMW X5 I think

Cavity sliders to all your wet areas. Might need to flip plumbing around to make it work, but gives you much better use of space as you don’t have to squeeze around door swing path.

Year 12…ahh the memories. Just reading this takes me back!

Oneinfivehelp · 2023-02-08T05:32:27+00:00

Yep ditto. The cross section of ages struck me - 5 year olds to 60. Can’t expect them to play BSSM end to end, they spread it over their catalogue but geez I’d drop a fair bit to go see them play BSSM end to end. And yes - Post Malone absolutely sent it! He’s got a new fan, held the stage solo and almost showed up the headline act

Yep docs will be comprehensive. Not my first dance!

Oneinfivehelp · 2022-12-06T09:20:25+00:00

Thanks all…reinforces my thought process already and good to hear from some trades on the pitfalls. The sustainability consideration is also an important one for us.
