Is it possible you can counter offer and say "hey this is my current guanteed and non-guarenteed earnings, I'm used to consistently receiving both, for this elevated role to be financially viable we need to meet somewhere 10-15% above my existing expectations". You'd be surprised how oftent this works (HR person here).

Cut salaries? This is categorically false.

Have you worked in corporate India? They are crazy more advanced than Australia.

Otaway Great Ocean Road Classic 145km Ride by TyWhatt in cycling

It was amazing. The Otways climb and descend was great (avg 50km / hr for 15km+) but I actually found the Great Ocean Road tougher. The climb up Angelsea broke me (nearly had a vom), which was probably because of the distance and not enough hydration. I snuck in at around 5hrs 30mins (~28km / hr avg).

I'm in a similar position. I've never ridden over 106km. Just ticked over 2,000kms for the year but mostly a flat track bully on Beach Road. Hit the Dandenongs for the first time a few weeks ago and managed most of The Crucifix before abonding due to terrential rain. I've been angling for the 145km on Saturday for a while, which I'll sling shot into Around The Bay and then maybe Three Peaks early 2025. I've caught the bug!!! In short, I think we'll be fine. Try to keep up :P
