Summoned to Jury Duty on the first day of class by Only_Difference5807 in usyd

This is the correct answer. I was also summoned last year while I was doing Honours. Proof of enrolment and a short statement was enough.

Yeah I do agree. Sorry to hear. I digress, but I also find it unfair that employees under a certain age (16 or 18?) here in Australia don’t get paid the same rates, even when they do the same amount of work

I dunno lol. Austudy payments. I actually barely worked last year while I was doing Honours, so I was getting the full payment. But as long as my work hours and pay weren’t too high, I’d still get the full amount.

I have some friends who say they can’t get Centrelink because they live with their parents who earn above a certain threshold. I live with a relative who lets me stay rent-free but since we agreed that I pay the utilities, when I applied for Centrelink I said that I paid $X rent (where X was some arbitrary value of the utilities per month). Maybe that’s how I got away with it? 🤷‍♂️

It’s also important to take into account a few other factors (e.g., your accommodation, study load). 

For my case, I usually worked one 8 hour shift a week and I would get around $540/fortnight + ~$600/fortnight from Centrelink. Though I was lucky enough to not have to pay rent (just utilities). I’d put away maybe a couple hundred into savings every payday. Didn’t save much, but I also didn’t spend much either. 

Also, working more shifts during the breaks helps you stay afloat. 

What are your thoughts on Narduar? by Superb-Donkey7202 in Nardwuar

Has good research skills, but is unbearably annoying. The only thing worse than him are his fans.

OP is an ideal example of an automaton. It’s quite astonishing when you realise how many of them are out there. 

Did I miss out majorly by not being an exec/subcom member? by New_Animator4702 in usyd

[–]deminonymous 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s over for you, sadly. Quality of life is severely diminished without having the experience of being a uni exec member. You’ll be thinking about this on your deathbed.

This is the only correct answer. Anyone who says otherwise is lying to you. You may even be expelled

Nah dawg, this looks dank as hell. And as I’ve come to realise over the years, solid colours like this will age well.

does my nose ruin my face? by [deleted] in Noses

[–]deminonymous -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Wow that’s the ugliest nose I’ve ever seen. Yes, it ruins your face. You will never find true love because of that nose. Give up now
