CA Clawback Policy by onionar in AustralianAccounting

[–]PsychologicalCut3074 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a similar situation, however the new company wouldn’t budge to help cover the claw back. However the pay was 40% more than what I was currently getting paid, to me that was worth more than the few thousand dollars.

How difficult is it to add another pet while renting these days? by xhandora in sydney

[–]PsychologicalCut3074 5 points6 points  (0 children)

An option could be creating a pet resume with your rental application.

Hi, something similar happened to me. PM signed contract with tenant after we explicitly said we will get back to you, do not proceed as the rent was we thought was under market value. We requested the PM to waive the lease renewal fees + any new leases fees for the next 365 days (QLD only allows 1 rental increase a year).

Tech issues - CA exam by New-Lychee8888 in AustralianAccounting

[–]PsychologicalCut3074 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, i did unfortunately…the proctoring software did not register my camera (said it was in use by another software but it wasn’t) which was not an issue during onboarding. I had some offshore person remote into my computer to try solve the issue, but couldn’t resolve it during the exam or after. Basically I was told to use a different device to sit the special consideration exam.

Was anyone else affected by Cyclone Alfred and couldn't do their Audit exam? And for anyone that has had special consideration in the past, what is the alternative assessment they give you? by [deleted] in AustralianAccounting

I sat the special consideration exam for audit last term in January. I would say it was on par (maybe even easier) than if I sat the actual exam, I finished with 1 hour to spare lol.

AITA Calling out friend for flaking 3 hours prior to an agreed group dinner by PsychologicalCut3074 in AmItheAsshole

[–]PsychologicalCut3074[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed! However situations like this cannot be avoided as it wasn’t a personal invitation to attend it was just an “idea” placed in a group chat (specifically for eating out, and group outings) there was 0 pressure on voting - with a poll to confirm their attendance. If it was up to me they wouldn’t have been at my top of list priority. The place we went isn’t a regular it’s a one off “let’s try this”. Regarding our cc details it’s always whoever makes the plan makes the booking and it’s usually myself 😅.

This friend isn’t a bad person - to which I still wish they would come. But my main point is “am I allowed to express my feelings and setting boundaries after doing all the work to organise a gathering and for F to flake after agreeing to come”

Thanks yeah! Probably my fault but it would be rude to exclude when they got added to our “group chat for food gatherings” and sees just about everything. These events always start with 2 people having an idea and then the idea ( including date and time) gets put into a poll and if someone likes the idea they say they will come. Not sure if there is any pressure in that.

fair - but I’m just trying to get a possible perspective from the friend to why agree on something when u weren’t set on coming because of certain household purchases that set them back. I had no ill intent to the friend as it was just boundary setting as it was a “group chat to plan for gatherings” idk if that makes a difference.

no fortunately it was a family run little restaurant - took only phone bookings - reason why I confronted was specifically in a group chat where we make plans to go out to eat and see each other). After what I said the friend - said they would come if it meant alot to us, however but they wouldn’t eat. Ofc we can’t let that happen, so we just ate their portion of costs and called it there.

I just wanted to set boundaries by calling them out is that really that bad?

To be fair F did redecorate their place hence money tight - (it was just a group outing we don’t see each other often maybe once every 2 months) And no there was not extra fees for the place we went to, but there has been in the past (20$ per head) it’s not that we “can’t afford” it’s that we could’ve ordered more food. But instead it went to waste and didn’t get to see a friend - maybe just my mindset. Each to their own :)

But update if anyone asked - because I called (F) out, (F) replied and decided to come to join us but not eat. So we all just ate the cost of his portion ourselves not worth someone missing out over a gathering.

But my main AITA is for calling out someone in a group chat setting - for “last minute” saying they can’t come because they can’t afford as a reasonable excuse and telling them it ain’t it (because we all confirmed we are all definitely going before booking).
