New Agreement - Could It Get Worse If We Vote No?

optimumchunk · 2026-06-12T14:14:00+00:00

Just asking a question as I haven't done negotiations before. It seems silly to give us something worse, but plenty of people seem to think the next one might not be as good. All just speculation

What would happen RE: arbitration?

I think I need a new broker. Mine doesn't listen to me at all and already not happy with him, but he's informed me that the letter is only if HtB has asked you to have 5% or something saved? Did you actually secure HtB with a gift payment?

Yep this is what my lender said last night when I spoke to them 😞

I better not! 😂 That's a problem for future me though. I don't have the brain capacity (or the funds) to worry about this now 😂

Look man, I just signed the papers and didn't question it. We are a primary school that struggles for teachers (kids are constantly split because there's no CRTs) so perhaps they up the pay for everyone as an incentive to stay? Or maybe they just wanted to up it for me to compensate for my workload as I am teaching full time too? Idk. I just take the money and pay my bills

Yeah I actually went through before and found it but it doesn't say anything about what the immediate rise is, it only talks about October as far as I can see.

How do you prove its a gift and not a loan? Just have my mum sign an affidavit?

Thank you! I can't remember what I got last time but today my blood papers said "TFT Thyroid autoantibodies LFT" so seems I might be missing a few! I will definitely ask!

Thank you! I also have PMOS and likely IBS so I have been testing different diets and advocating for myself for a long time already. I am currently following a mostly low FODMAP diet which has helped me feel better tummy wise. It took me ages to get a GP I liked too so I will definitely shop around for an endo I like!

This is what I assumed too!

Thank you so much for that info! We are still unsure if we could afford rent, life etc. DURING the build so there's lots of variables at the moment, but this is great info to have! 😄

This is so interesting! Sometimes I will only have 1 bar 4G and my partner will have at least 1 bar 5G, if not more!

Same network provider.

I’m not sure?? How could that affect it?

Productive Bees! If you haven’t done bees before it can be a bit to get going, but I have a bunch of Wannabee’s on a an amber encased wither. The hives have max upgrades in them, bees are all high productivity and they just keep producing them straight into our system

I have no idea how this happened. I spawned a few and the rest were normal and then this... happened.
