whats a good new job i can do? my current one (sales) cracks me due to not too cool product leading to more complaints than sales...

are all sales jobs like this?

and has anyone done a b.com recently - how did u go about getting work experience etc/finding a job? were employer nights the way to go, the uni careers centre, or just looking in the classifieds, or job agencies?

i ask cause im finishing up mine in 4 months, and havent really had any good advice as yet...

Hey MrR33, I just did a B.Com and am looking for a job at the moment. The best thing to do would be to apply during all the grad rounds/careers fairs etc. I didn't apply during those rounds as I had planned to go into business with a friend and we were working on that etc. But unfortunately, when the time came, it fell through and I had missed the grad rounds. If I didn't think that I had it planned, I'd have definitely gone hard in the grad rounds. Now I'm looking for a job in papers/web etc and they're a bit scarce (depending on what field etc) but I'm sure eventually I'll get something decent.

Hippy, I think your prospects of getting a job are good with an honours degree and at least some experience. I've seen a few jobs advertised but dunno what the overall industry is like as I'm not in that field. But in my opinion, you should be able to get a job here.

I've just got myself an IT job in sydney after completing my science degree at the end of last year. I applied for 3 jobs and got offered a job at two of them.

My brother completed his degree at the same time but did computer science and was top 15% student but can't get a job at all. I think he's now working at McDonalds full time.

its pretty hard to find a job in sydney when u still live in adelaide ... it means having the workplace either interview over the phone or them coming over or u coming over which i think would be alot of trouble for any company to do so i don't think most or even all wouldn't even bother ... theres a few mixed reports about job opportunities ... i have some opportunities over here in adelaide ... they are ok but i dont' think they really suit what i want to do ...

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...

      the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
