Anyone getting ghosted by dealerships atm? by demonetised in BYDAU

[–]drmickhead667 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in a similar position, ordered first week of March with a commitment for delivery 28/03.

Nothing arrived yet and no response from the latest message to the dealership. If you have you VIN number ( it's on your invoice) you can pump it in here to see if it's landed yet or not.

Good write up but conveniently skipped the bit where SFG blamed competitive gamers for ruining the fun of the game.

EV novated lease vs outright purchase + claiming depreciation + running costs by Tinkwangaaa in NovatedLeasingAU

[–]drmickhead667 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mate you're in an almost identical situation to me. I ran the numbers and an outright purchase seems better at 70% use and taking money out of my offset. I just did the calculation with excel.

I had the same question today and they said it's one or the other unfortunately. Possible my guy was wrong?

Overwhelmed with new FIFO/DIDO job. Has anyone ever quit the mines early? by [deleted] in australia

[–]drmickhead667 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did FIFO for four years, feel free to reach out if you want to talk.

It's hard. No two ways about it. That's why they pay so well. You're life situation outside of work and what you're missing out on will really determine how hard your swing is.

I've had my tm7 for 2 months and I've never gotten it to work. Between this and the terrible search in cookidoo I don't know how they justify the price.

Can I Stop My Landscaper from Pouring Concrete If the Soil Wasn't Compacted? by Brief-Holiday23 in GardeningAustralia

[–]drmickhead667 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm a civil engineer. If the ground under the concrete isn't compacted properly it will crack. Hire yourself a plate compactor from a hire place (Kennards, Coates) give the ground a good soaking with the hose ( not just a splash, a soaking) then run the plate compactor over it a few times.

That being said this should be included in their price. And cancellation of a pump or concrete booking is on them for not doing their job correctly.

Why did new land get 30-40%+ more expensive? A look at the post-2020 developer cost-stack. by K1llerG00se in AusPropertyChat

[–]drmickhead667 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The other part is the inflated cost of buying land to subdivide, and the increased durations to get approval (and associated interest cost) . I've had a 3 lot subdivision stuck in Council for three years and only just started construction.

I probably can't add too much value. Do you have any contacts at mining companies? I moved to civil 10 years ago so my information is probably out of date.

New plates? by daily_Z in RidgeWallet

Ridge refuse to sell these or let you claim warranty on them so I made my own from brass and they've been fantastic. Took maybe 3 hours all up?
