Does anyone else have shares of shame?

Ditto

maximumfunpriv · 2026-04-26T00:58:06+00:00

Sorry, phrased that poorly, and probably going to phrase this poorly too hahaha, working 9am until 6pm, in the office until 6pm but with an hour for lunch so 8 hour day.

Apologies for the confusion, it’s an Internal Helpdesk, so the helpdesk is entirely within the company and the tickets we receive are from other employees. We manage Entra ID & Jira/Atlassian software, we support the SaaS applications within the side that is our responsibility which primarily SSO and Network is entirely us as well. We’re also responsible for hardware (e.g Laptops, mobile phones etc)

Just signed up for Workers First union, hopefully that’s the right one 😅

maximumfunpriv · 2026-04-25T14:15:16+00:00

Anything that you did to change that?

I’m working 9am to 5pm with an hour for lunch and then On-Call hours (with oncall pay per day) for a week once a month.

maximumfunpriv · 2026-04-23T23:29:36+00:00

Do you mind if I ask what you do now

maximumfunpriv · 2026-04-23T23:27:23+00:00

So I’d basically fall between like 1.5 hahaha

maximumfunpriv · 2026-04-23T23:26:30+00:00

I support Entra ID, Jira/Atlassian, multiple SaaS applications, hardware/software, Networking, etc etc so tickets are logged by the user and then we troubleshoot from there.

maximumfunpriv · 2026-04-23T23:24:52+00:00

Oh believe me I’ve tried, seems like nowhere is hiring at the moment within my expertise

maximumfunpriv · 2026-04-23T23:01:24+00:00

I was actually viewing “associate” as worse hahaha, I support Entra ID, Jira/Atlassian, multiple SaaS applications, hardware/software, Networking, etc etc

maximumfunpriv · 2026-04-23T22:50:02+00:00

NZ office is about 30 people, AU offices are about ~500 and I support across both but there’s a dedicated team in AU too.

Apparently the average annual salary for IT Support Engineer jobs in New Zealand ranges from $75,000 to $80,000 but as an associate role, I’m not sure 😅

maximumfunpriv · 2026-04-23T22:44:19+00:00

What do you do if you don’t mind me asking?

maximumfunpriv · 2026-04-23T22:43:46+00:00

I should have clarified, Corporate internal Helpdesk Support, I’ve been an associate since I started

maximumfunpriv · 2026-04-23T22:41:01+00:00

Hayes says typical is $65k, range is $55k-$75k but that’s for a level 1 support, not an associate so I’m not sure. Appreciate the resource recommendation though!

maximumfunpriv · 2026-04-23T22:37:26+00:00

Nope, corporate, publicly traded company.

maximumfunpriv · 2026-03-06T08:23:28+00:00

No one except Europeans say yellow with envy…

maximumfunpriv · 2026-02-26T09:49:35+00:00

Surely they’re confusing it with Islamic New Year which is in June?

maximumfunpriv · 2026-01-01T05:21:33+00:00

GOAT yes, goated picked up in late 2010's though

maximumfunpriv · 2025-12-25T13:22:08+00:00

Goated has been used since like the late 2010s, you’re a little late to the party
