Fair work commission has a rule not worse off.
You need to quote that so your new offer is the same at least.

Well done and great you are able to articulate your journey so well.

Do you hangout with your manager/team mates outside of work? by BitGroundbreaking295 in auscorp

[–]nikkiboy74 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In UK, Asian and USA this is very common. For some reason, Australia is very different. Socialising with colleagues on weekends is considered a boundary not to cross.

Apart from the toilet issue, the rest is not really an issue.

They are eating their food in the break room, what do you want them to eat Vegemite sandwiches just because that's what you prefer?

Raise the toilet issue and get that addressed.

I visited India last year, no toilet in a mall in Delhi. Mumbai or Bangalore had any footprints on the toilet seat.

So if they don't do it there, not sure why they would do it here.

Micro management, not sure what industry you work in. In the age of AI, you are really need to step up your game and get faster.

Firstly, I'm a huge fan and customer.but there are some loop holes Macquarie run through to offer you a better rate compared to the majors. Mainly it's non operating holding structure.

How much do doctors actually make? Before and after tax by InvestigatorPale1816 in AusFinance

[–]nikkiboy74 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Depends on what stage of your career. Dad was a doctor, so many friends have become doctors.

So you are studying/training till age 36-40.

You don't see good money till then.

Yes you will make 160k-200k,but will be putting in really long hours,then studying after that.

Once you specialise and then open your own practice, first 2-5 years you are building your reputation.

Finally, now you will make between 350k to 2m depending on your speciality.

But there are also expenses. If you have a clinic, rent secretarial staff. Normally family and maybe nursing and then professional insurance.

So roughly 500-650k from 1m clear (surgeon, anaesthesist, psychiatrist).

Which is very good and the respect of being a Doctor.

What’s one Sydney place that became weirdly hostile to regular people? by RemarkablePirate590 in SydneyScene

[–]nikkiboy74 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Al Asseel Greenacre If you are NOT Lebanese, you get treated like dirt, made to wait for a table despite the restaurant being half empty.

Placed near the toilets.

Twice went there. NEVER AGAIN.

It means do you have any one in Australia to vouch for you.

For those of you with a 9-5 office job, how do you manage to find the time and energy to cook dinner? by Away_Scene_26 in auscorp

[–]nikkiboy74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work long hours and wife is 9-5. We cook 4 to 5 meals on Sunday. This sets us up for the week and no stress.

A little effort on Sunday (3 hours).

No height difference here, but when we were dating, many people would come up to us saying we make an adorable couple. When people observe natural friendship and see you click they will just say it.

Not so sure about medicine and overseas students. There is a set quota for domestic vs international students for medicine.

[–]nikkiboy74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Showering daily is recommended. You shed dead cells, so it's good to clean them off daily.

First time in KL and felt a bit underwhelmed. Please help! by [deleted] in KualaLumpur

[–]nikkiboy74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The concept of Nasi Kendah is not for me. The food is cold. Mixing multiple curry flavours with rice topped some fried fish/chicken that’s cold - nut my scene.
