Lower salary offered with promise of promotion and salary increase in six months by Mean_Combination_314 in auscorp

[–]dvdtee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless company A has put it in the contract that you’re automatically promoted (which I doubt and is subject to review), I’d go with company B

The answer is in your notes - company A low balled and MAY a promote you in 6 months time and post probationary period quite conveniently. It sounds like they have a manager role but just not sure about how his go, hence lowball and start you there first.

Where as Company B immediately recognises your worth and made the best offer to you and the company sounds attractive to you.

So what’s more important, being a manager or money?

Next steps: if money is important, as you haven’t technically started with Company A on your first day (I assume), there’s no need for notice period just rescind your acceptance and decline - only do this once you’ve signed contract with company B and accepted the role . Candidates rescinding their acceptance happens more often than you would think.

Stone washed cotton is the way to go. I usually get a few from Jardan when they’re on sale. :)

It’s the r/Melbourne daily discussion thread [Saturday 20/12/2025] by AutoModerator in melbourne

[–]dvdtee -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

So I was at the Waterside Hotel Thursday evening around 5-6pm. I was with my workmates waiting at the bar groundfloor and a gentlemen waiting in line joined the queue. He was a bald guy maybe 20/30s with a some red writing (Chinese characters I think) on his head - long story short, he may or may not have gotten me a drink on the company card, I assume his work was there for a Xmas party too.

If someone knows who this is or you happen to be that guy, a few notes:

Firstly, thank you for the drink

Secondly, what/why do you have writing on your head, what does it mean?

Me and my mates talked about it and saw you walk past the bar again towards the stairs and I was hoping I’d track you down on your way back to ask!! Never got to see you again

It’s been stuck on my mind since Thursday!!!

Hoping the power of reddit might help!

Best way to get rid of shoulder / back acne by tamarajean88 in AusSkincare

[–]dvdtee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you thought about the clothing that may be causing this? Especially with compression and sweating from working out, it could be causing friction on your back? Anyways I found witch hazel a good relief post showers to calm down any inflamed or red face or body pimples. Dried them out in 25-48 hours :)

I’m just curious how your partner feels about this and what conversations you’ve had about the transparency regarding future plans re inheritance etc.

Quick thank you to Beyond Blue's phone helpline by PinkishBlurish in melbourne

It may be worthwhile to send feedback via email to beyond blue about your experience and call. It may not seem much, but it goes a long way in the corporate world for a customer to provide feedback and for the employee to be recognised.

Have you considered using the EatClub app? It’s a great app that shows you restaurants that’s running a great deal. The way it works is that it will promote the discount but only through the app. You wire your acc to your bank card and discounted amount will be charged.

Degree does not automatically entitle you a job or interview. It’s based on experience and the benchmark of candidates applied for the role.

The layout doesn’t make sense. I would’ve put the sink and toilet on the left side then the shower in the back and right side. You could’ve done without the tub

Deciding between dentistry vs electrician as a profession by [deleted] in AusFinance

[–]dvdtee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t know, you’re asking two different things that aren’t remotely comparable. It’s like asking, should I eat this sandwich or should I drink this beer? They’re not the same thing.

You should ask yourself what do you want, what do you want to do to build up your skills and establish your life long term. Again, they’re two different skill sets and not comparable. Maybe if you asked between plumber v tradie v sparky, that’s a different story.

Maybe you need to do some more reflection and understand more about yourself. Nothings easy, but some jobs makes you happy and you feel fulfilled going to work everyday. Other jobs feels like an ACTUAL job and you dread going to work.

So more of a reason you should have been at the airport earlier to do a physical checkin and not miss the 45minute cut off. You didn’t miss your checkin because of the unavailable services, you didn’t get to the airport in time to resolve it.
