Hopefully some of you guys will have been through this before, so could you share some experience??

Ok, so I just informed my employers of one of my jobs that I won't be with them for much longer. What needs to be done paperwork wise?

I was using this job as my primary income job, so it get's taxed the least out of the ones I have.. I don't want to get taxed at a very high rate at my new one if you know what I mean. Do I need to get a group cert for tax adjustments at the end of this financial year? What about super?

Is there anything else I'm missing??

Thanks guys and gals, your help is much appreciated :)

Hand in your letter of resignation.

Read your agreement though, it will state how much notice you are required to give.

1-2-3-4 weeks is around the time most require

Your primary job will have the tax free threshold claimed im assuming.

All you do once you leave, is then tell your new primary employer you would like to "claim the tax free threshold" with them, and they will change you over.

It doesnt really matter if you dont, you'll just get taxed more each pay, but come tax return time you'll get a lump sum payment.

I dont claim it, and i get around a 5k tax return each year :)

Tax - i assume you have an accountant already? If not, i know just the man for you :)

Super, i assume you know what super your with? You can either send them a letter or call them.

And you will need to provide details of where you want your super account you want it t be "rolled into".

Thats all the comes to mind, if you have any more Q's, post away matey :O

its not hard.

I have many jobs and all I do is get a resignation letter (btw there is a eb site to fill them out easily :() and put on it the time when you want to go...forget your contract for the minute.

Then when u give it to them, if they agree you go when you want. MOst people with real jobs need to give 4 weeks but I have never stayed longer than 3.

THey will talk to you about the date, if they think its a big deal just do whatever they say inline with your employment agreement, you dont want to upset them too much cos u never know when u may meet again.

Always thank them for the oppatunity and tell them the new job is helping you achieve your goals blah blah...try not t bag people out...or say to your boss she is a dumb bitch with no idea...haha I have the refrain every day.

also if your about to quit, remember to be 'sick' a couple of days here and there if you have any sick days left :( seems you dont get them when you leave.

I would not do it...as a boss its obvious and really pisses you off. Try and keen on OK relationship with ur boss, u might need them for a reference later or they may turn up again - u never know.

you don't get piad out for sick days.

Pinch as much stationary as u can ;)

Ask out as many female staff as u can :mrt:

Seriously I am sure what has been said above is dam good advise. Also speak to an financial advisor or at least get one to help roll over ur super. Good luck with future employment...

I'm considering handing mine in to my work, however they require 7 weeks notice !!

Wow you must be important at your workplace, thats crazy.

Its about the only time its good to be a casual worker. I had a guy a few weeks ago give two weeks notice, then just walk out after the first 5 mins of his shift saying "i cant be f@$ked any more".

Then he rang up looking for a reference!!

When I was working casual many years ago and the company was pissing me off and giving me all the crap shifts, so I just didnt bother turning up 1 week. When they called me and asked where I was I told them 'I quit' on the phone and that was the end of it.

Well thats another way to go about it :D

Thanks for the help guys, it's only casual work so I don't think I have to give much notice (or any).

Cheers

Yeah mate no notice needed if youre casual, so walk out at the start of the day if you dont care...

If you do care then it would be nice to give them 2 weeks notice (or however far ahead the rosters are done).

when i worked for jeans west , the tossers done the smart thing, instead they jsut cut back my shifts wk after wk and eventually never called me up.

so i got revenge at my next place, i walked in told them after 5yrs (i started when i was 15) that i've had enough of the shitty hours and wanna leave, so took my apron of and put it on the bench at the end of the shift and never went back.

yep. These bastards underpay me for the work that I do, have been cutting back my hours, f**king up the roster without telling me.. AND worse of all they signed me up for a traineeship, so that they could get about 4k worth of government incentives. Absoloute crap.

If your casual or doing a traineeship Im sure you can ring them and just fax the letter of resignation so you dont have to see them.

I worked at this shithole helpdesk for pharmacies for 4 weeks and couldnt heck it, so I rang em and told them I wish to quit, they asked me to bring them a formal letter with my resignation, I asked if I can fax it... went to my old employer (got my old job back which I loved) and faxed it from there :laugh:

If you have been with a company for a long time and have a perm pos then its diff.

some employers can be sh1t. I've been trying to find another one but haven't got a chance to get interviews... nothing too much wrong with mine except that we're a bit underpaid compared to the rest of the industry and for some how they got away to classify us as clerical admin until last month rather than IT (we do data processing - please doesn't that compute to you as IT?) - nevertheless I've been with the current work for over 4 years, and have seen other people come and go. just waiting to "cash off" my overdue annual leave for 6 weeks then after that it may be my turn of luck to change for a better career...

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
