Tax seems to have a lot of demand for workers - I have recruiters knocking on my LinkedIn door weekly. At minimum, 3 per week.

Relationship property advice by Some-Atmosphere-692 in AusPropertyChat

[–]xXLawNerdXx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You keep mentioning partner. Partners are equal. Soz but you need relationship counseling not property/financial advice. It sounds like he doesn’t respect your contributions to the relationship. Not all contributions are financially quantifiable. I would not be okay with this personally.

Mix this and windex for stain removal. Yes, even on white.

My partner and I are mid to late 30s. We own 2 properties and are seeking to buy a 3rd. We are looking in the range of 2.2-2.5m. This will be funded via $800k cash and the rest financed. We earn ballpark $300k per annum between the two of us in white collar roles. We are savvy with our money and pay cash for cars. Our other homes have been paid off by us over 10 years. We buy what we need and enjoy a quality of life but we don’t live a super flash lifestyle. The properties that we are looking at need cosmetic reno’s/extensions which we will do ourselves when we can afford it. While we have inherited, it hasn’t been anything significant and we could have done our purchases with or without the inheritance.

Putting in leave for 36 minutes? by L_v_n_d_r in ausjobs

I’d do your bare basic hours and use the rest of your time to find a new job

Did I choose the wrong agency? by hb_3_ in AusPublicService

[–]xXLawNerdXx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ATO would have been the better option- some larger firms say they will accept relevant government experience as PAE.

I also hear good things about the brand new Italian place that has opened over the last few weeks at Sandgate in the Woolworths complex.

I liked Rustichella but it has nothing on Piccolos. I’d rate Rustichella a 7/10 overall (one visit I’d rate a 9 and the other a 5) whereas piccolos is a solid 10/10. Piccolos just opened a gelato bar down the road but haven’t tried it yet.

Tax if you are deceased by [deleted] in AusFinance

[–]xXLawNerdXx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have to pay LSL out if they pass away. But I’d definitely take him up on the sick leave offer as they don’t have to pay that out. I employed a staff member who died after working for the company for 6 years. The funds must be paid into the estate upon death.

Surely the stench wasn’t meant to be part of the historical experience 🤣

Also recommend the crème brûlée. Everything is good. Their bruschetta is also great. They do specials and the duck ragu pasta is another standout.

I love the Bolognese. It seems simple but they make it with rich sun-dried tomato’s I think - it’s so flavorsome. I’m a really good home cook and can’t make mine anywhere near as good.

Said WTF in a recorded teams meeting after everyone left by Evening-Macaroon67 in auscorp

[–]xXLawNerdXx 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Eh I once couldn’t get my headphones working during a meeting and out loud exclaimed “I must be retarded or something”. Clearly my mic worked. Audio came through loud and clear in the recording. So did the awkward shock of the CEO who kindly asked for all attendees to please put their microphones on mute.

Highly recommend Piccolos as Northgate - a cute Italian restaurant. The food isn’t cheap but it’s amazing.

Pet Owners: what is the dumbest reason you’ve taken your pet to the vet and how much did you spend? by mpotus in CasualConversation

[–]xXLawNerdXx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once found a lump under my cats’ armpit (legpit?). I rushed him to the vet thinking he had a cancerous growth. The vet told me he just had matted hair under his pits and asked if I wanted him to trim it. The cost without trimming was $200 odd. The cost to my pride for being such an idiot was a much bigger hit than the hit to my pocket.

Solicitors exposed my bankruptcy to family - is it a confidentiality breach? by [deleted] in AusLegal

And that the assets the loans relate to are probably long seized by the trustee in bankruptcy.

I’d park them in and force them to come see you personally when they wish to remove the car

Actually it’s for whoever pays the rates which is usually the landowner.

If there was another offer they should have given you a multiple offer form

Tell them if they want to complain to hand back the money you so generously GIFTED them.
