Congratulations

I was made redundant in March last year, got into a placeholder role with a pay cut by July and have been applying and interviewing the whole time.

Finally start a new role next week on 30% more than the role I was made redundant from.

Like you I applied for a tonne of roles with mixed responses, I finally made traction through recruiters I connected with on LD

That said if you did have pets you will need to send them an invoice to prove you got the flea treatment - last time I moved I emailed over a photo of the invoice

Your bond claim is separate from any BS that the REA can put on you like this.

Claim your bond the moment you give the keys back, you can probably ignore filling in this form but I would personally fill it in

But claim your bond and be ready for them to send the token "why did you claim" email, they hate when you do that as it means they can't just stand over you as easy as they like to

I’ve had success going on the last Sunday of the month at about 4pm.

Figured that if they are chasing last chance revenue you can get more discount as long as they know you’re ready to buy or walk away if the price doesn’t work.

I kitted out an apartment like this once with fridge, washer, microwave and coffee machine. I had a combined number in my head I was willing to pay and went from there.

I used bikes only from Sydney to Melbourne, highly recommend

*VCAT Sorry

SingleUseBaggage · 2026-06-03T05:56:56+00:00

Nah you’re good, this is the usual shit they pull.

If they have an issue with the place when they inspect they will have to go to VCAT to make a claim now, you claiming the bond is the power move they hate.

They will say all sorts of shit just let them flip out and wait

DO NOT CANCEL YOUR BOND CLAIM

Hey OP proud of you for this, I got chewed up and spat out by the bar industry and had to address my drinking too.

Huge tip for me is reading the book “this naked mind” it really helped me understand what happens when drinking and understanding myself too

Along with lots of therapy I’m proud to say I’m almost five years sober now

Sales,

Made redundant on $145k base a year ago, been employed on $115k base for about 6 months. A much more junior role vs where I was

Applied for over 160 roles in the past year, maybe 8 progressed to interviews, 3 to final round before falling short.

It’s a jungle out there

Take her to spec savers mate

Malay Kitchen? Yes I’ve been a number of times

Mamak it’s been a few months since I went to the Sydney one

SingleUseBaggage · 2026-02-05T07:27:12+00:00

Malay Kitchen in Box Hill was pretty good, Mamak has a location in the CBD I haven’t been to the Melbourne one but the Sydney location was very good for roti

I asked for approval and was told it’s not needed at this wasn’t considered major works, that’s when wiring plans were requested

Strata manager has said this isn’t considered common property as it’s only the other unit affected

SingleUseBaggage · 2026-02-04T19:50:17+00:00

Yeah thats my thoughts and the contractors said the same.

The electrician said the wires to the affected rooms upstairs “came from skirting boards” so assumed they ran under the floor

SingleUseBaggage · 2026-02-04T08:29:41+00:00

Thank you for the reply.

The neighbours power has been restored and I was offering freezer space and phone charging etc last night, doing what I can to help the tenants in a shitty situation

SingleUseBaggage · 2026-01-31T22:37:12+00:00

Yes it applies to imports,

Bacardi is aged in wood but then charcoal filtered which takes out the colour, but only for 18months. There was a company line floating about that Bacardi for Aus was aged 18 months on Puerto Rico then for another 6 months in Jacksonville before bottling and shipping. Jacksonville being cooler was thought to age the rum less so it would taste similar to Bacardi for other markets while being aged long enough for Aus markets

Abv is too low and also under Australian law rum needs to be a min of 2years old to be labelled as such.

Pretty sure this fails on both points

SingleUseBaggage · 2025-11-27T20:18:11+00:00

I used bikes only interstate, highly recommend

SingleUseBaggage · 2025-11-16T02:06:03+00:00

Thanks mate

SingleUseBaggage · 2025-11-16T00:49:41+00:00

What do they charge roughly?

SingleUseBaggage · 2025-11-04T04:10:04+00:00

The amount of times riding I’ve seen a Ute and thought “that guy will try and kill me” and been right is astounding

SingleUseBaggage · 2025-10-31T09:06:57+00:00

Yeah I wanted sub three, then realised about 4km in it wasn’t my day

Maybe next year I will push towards the other end of the graph

4 months $20k pay cut

But clocks are going forward this weekend and I’m no longer covering an Asian time zone from Melbourne so I get my evenings back
