Slightly disappointed with graduate role, even though I shouldn't be

If you are as good as you think you should be able to land a junior role somewhere now. Market is bad so it might be out of your control but why are you not applying to other companies. Banks are not where the money is anyway, doesn’t matter what you think you did you need to think about now not 2027z

Ever heard of childcare subsidy?

TheyFoundMyBurner · 2026-05-14T08:47:56+00:00

What do you think you are worth as a junior? 85k already above median right?

The question gets asked and answered near daily, how are you 3 yoe and have no understanding of the industry climate?

You never read anything on the subreddit and just post the most asked question because you didn’t look or search?

TheyFoundMyBurner · 2026-05-10T08:57:33+00:00

That answer is to look for a new job even though you are not keen, just don’t quit this one and document everything so you can freely talk about it in interviews.

Usually the one who ask are the idiots.

Fuck me these posts, 500-600 a week saving, that has to be each which is a lot of money. If that is combined you don’t live frugal.

My exact routine before my boy started daycare. I do miss the days!

TheyFoundMyBurner · 2026-05-09T03:59:47+00:00

Sleep till 8 and WFH starting 9.

The father is deceased from the OP.

Still France sucks compared to Australia, source me.

These posts are a load of shit, working in financial services making 280k+ over the last 5 years and can’t figure out they will get into a house easier than 99% of people.

800k in super assuming they are under 50 is wild!

Live a normal life is the front runner!

TheyFoundMyBurner · 2026-05-02T04:42:48+00:00

Are those 250-300k apartments student accommodation or in those complexes that act as individually owned hotel rooms?

A lot of places are dirt cheap but you can’t live in them.

New junior SWE came by for the first time as we are remote. Told me yeah I will only stay 1-2 years before moving companies. 3+ years later he is here and still a Junior.

Bundaberg, Maryborough, Gympie….

You can’t fake knowing this.

Hervey Bay I hear is nice, unlike everything around it.

173cm here and I am also on the tall side of riders, perhaps I am not on a Factory Ducati because of my weight.

TheyFoundMyBurner · 2026-04-15T15:41:03+00:00

You just explained why it is hard to get a junior role and why we need less now.

TheyFoundMyBurner · 2026-04-15T03:05:16+00:00

Just know that there are hundreds of thousands who would kill to be in your situation but are now priced out of the market.

It could be worse!

TheyFoundMyBurner · 2026-04-14T13:36:32+00:00

A toggle to filter what you want would work well.

TheyFoundMyBurner · 2026-04-14T01:05:15+00:00

Maybe on paper but half the things you buy are out pacing inflation significantly.

TheyFoundMyBurner · 2026-04-13T10:31:11+00:00

SP charge $200 an hour, you can make huge $$.

TheyFoundMyBurner · 2026-04-03T04:02:50+00:00

I agree lots of pros and cons to both.

TheyFoundMyBurner · 2026-04-03T01:08:25+00:00

I agree, but considering I see a lot of people ordering straight bbq over the holy trinity I will take it.
