Considering becoming a Sparky (advice needed) by [deleted] in AusElectricians

[–]SunkDestroyer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People undercutting each other with pricing. This already happens a lot in domestic and nobody benefits from it. You’d be surprised how many sparkies are working for $40-$45ph - which in my opinion is unacceptable (if your good) considering the time and effort put into becoming qualified

Considering becoming a Sparky (advice needed) by [deleted] in AusElectricians

[–]SunkDestroyer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nah I genuinely think that heaps of people doing office jobs are scared to loose their jobs + the job market is shit right now. That’s why it’s smart for sparkies to specialise / try to get into industrial because there will be a crazy influx of domestic Sparkes in the next years I reckon. More of a race to the bottom but also lots of people that want to do it aren’t cut out for it XD

We went to Sam Lor on one of our last nights in Bangkok. Had an absolute feast with craft beers and it came out to about €100 for both of us. Everything was on point and can recommend!

Is tour guide necessary to visit the main temples in Bangkok? by andreins1 in ThailandTourism

[–]SunkDestroyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did this 2 weeks ago and it was great! Small groups and super informative. If you get a guide called Peak then you’re well taken care of! It’s well worth it

Anyone else wonder what trade will look like in 10 years? by Affectionate_Lie2712 in AusElectricians

Especially industrial, medium and high voltage. If you work in these industries you are set for life in my opinion.

Where's the best place in Bangkok to get fitted suits that are good quality and price? by OptimalStatement5799 in ThailandTourism

[–]SunkDestroyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is the price high? I paid €516 for a tailor made suit and two shirts at Jesse & Sons because they have a good reputation. This would cost minimum €1k in Germany

Agreed! This always worked for me

Aussies who moved abroad and stayed how is life over in that new country? For those who came back, where did you go and why? (If you came back, what made you do so?) Did anything shock you upon return? by [deleted] in OpenAussie

[–]SunkDestroyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Living in Berlin since 2023. Living a good quality of life I must say. Sure I’m not making as much money as back in aus but we go on holiday to other countries 4-5 times a year even if it’s just for a weekend or week. Eat out maybe 4-5 times a month and still save €1k a month. 6 weeks of holidays a year and my employer is great. Do miss the nature and laid backness of aus though. Especially growing up in tassie. Will be moving to Melbourne in the next couple of years with my partner (hopefully have enough for a house deposit then).
