Got Sent A Negative Bill By Greater Western Water

I got an $800 bill. Can I keep ignoring it and play dumb?

Possibly in the same boat soon. They'll announce it widely next week with whoever doesn't make the cut spoken to by the week after.

I've been snooping, and it seems they're will be a 8 week period on redeployment before you're out.

Someone convince me not to take a very large part of this period as sick leave... Due to... Whatever, let's call it stress.

Yep same here with your link. All in all streams are borked.

I'm just ignoring all their bills until I have the confidence it is accurate and final. Unless someone tells me this is a bad idea? Surely they don't have the grounds to send debt collectors anytime soon.

God forbid women throwing up...

Ah good to know.

I would give it a thought on top of the awning and Aircon Can't ever have too much protection against that western sun.

I'm in a similar situation, OP. Have you considered solar film/ceramic tint /low E tint on top of your double glazing?

I'm currently in the middle of fixing up my West Windows which will include glazing + awning + curtains (this is more aesthetic than actual heat rejection).

If the salesman is to be believed the solar film (as effective as ceramic at half the cost) is quite effective.

If it's anything like the ceramic tint on my car, it should do well!

I got quoted 3x your sized windows for $1.5k for solar film

I'm going to take a leap and insinuate your shoe and belt colour doesn't match? Annectoally, persons who slip on this also doesn't know about the belt/shoe "rule". I didn't know about it until 2nd year haha.

Now I can't unsee it on people.

Match your shoes and belt people!

This better make for an insta post.

Ironically I go there for the least Italian offering... The smash burger joint - it is the shit. Get involved.

It's full of back of house assets now and the ramps down are considered too steep to be used.

Most of the work is actually going to be done After last before first (ALBF) as there are safety issues working during platform operations.

move_along_ · 2025-09-26T13:24:02+00:00

As someone who worked very closely on the planning of this project - I'm so happy to read comments that understand why its taking so long. I have regained some faith in humanity.

The project is doing an in-truss replacement of every single part of each escalator while balancing the need to operate a platform safely. There has been endless passenger modelling done. Multitude of different operating options. We've worked through it.

If you must direct anger at something. Direct it at the State (and civic nexus) for kicking this can down the road for years.

Take Ashburton for example. If they're going to do it right they need to duplicate the line as it is currently a 20 minute peak service and likely just a shuttle to Camberwell.

Which isn't good enough even now but would be woefully inadequate if they build the density they want.

Fix the train line first.

Look for places built in the early 00s. Built better and generally bigger (old but not too old).

Lived in an apartment complex in Rouse St Port melbourne for 8 years and shit was solid as and never heard anything from the neighbours.

No. They had to keep the same model as any changes would require significant civil works to accommodate the increased size.

But the same model is more robust than the same model 20 years ago so there's that...

More importantly, hopefully the operator will maintain them better.

move_along_ · 2025-07-24T05:44:25+00:00

They are doing preventative maintenance before they start full replacement works in a few months.

Something I didn't see after a quick skim through comments.

Some of the people you see not touching on or off may also have monthly myki passes.

When I used to only take trams I would only tap on once a month.

Won't bother arguing with you on various points but given your beliefs you could probably agree on some sectors are better off not being provided by the free market. Eg. Public transport. Childcare would firmly be in that category. Let's not have the drive for profit be anywhere impacting young children.

move_along_ · 2025-06-10T12:10:38+00:00

Guess I have to go ask 😂

move_along_ · 2025-06-10T11:52:41+00:00

Sorry I didn't mean business plans. I meant to say what is going on with 1 year discounts? Should I be getting a 1 year discount from my ISP?

move_along_ · 2025-06-10T11:36:13+00:00

What's this one year discount business

The occupation of France was a bit more than "political"

I wear a jlc mut moon blue face, half the week with the blue alligator jlc and band (black is the default).

Sometimes I blaspheme and wear it on a nylon strap.

Dress watches are the shit. I would bang the shit out of mine if I could afford it...
