hey guys the guy i work with was telling me today that he used to get an rdo and if he wasnt given an rdo once a month they gave him 2 hours of extra pay a week to make up for not having an rdo,

he was wondering today when he got his pay slip why he didnt get his 2 extra hours for not having an rdo for the month.

can any one help out? so whats the actual go with these rdos? am i entitled to them? my work says that we dont have them but should we be getting extra money for not taking rdos?? cause we have to work a 40 hour week minimum.

your help would be apreciated. thanks

the way an RDO works is like this,

you work a 40 hour week and only get paid for 38hrs. they hold onto the other money and once a month you get a day off coz you have accumulated the hours by not getting paid 2 hrs a week.

so in your mates case just get him to check out how many hours of work hes getting paid for. if hes getting paid for 38 and working 40, then ask questions but if hes getting paid for 40 hrs then its clear there is no RDO system in place.

that sounds very weird to be honest. most people that do 3 on 1 off work in mines or heavy industrial.

it consultants? man im in the wrong trade. but 1 other question, do u get paid the week off?

nope... we work the weekend of the last week in 2 12 hour shifts and thats paid at double time to make up for it.

well thats how it works out... im basically paid a wage and overtime is based on the wage divided by months then diveded by hours worked in that month and that base rate is used to calculate the OT which is double time no matter what day or hour we work it.

my sickies carry over, annual carries over and any other leave (special, carers and long service) all carry over. i get 1 rdo per month, 20days p/year annual, 16 days per year sick, 4 days per year carers, 2 days per year special and long service works out to be 3months for every 10 years or pro rata after 5 years. so after 5 years, you can start using your longservice untilits all used up and then get none after 10 years.

1 guy at my work has 2000hrs sick leave, 1000 hours annual leave and i think 600hrs long service. been there for almost 30yrs but jesus, this guys is never sick i know that much and works during xmas shut down so he doesnt have to take annual leave.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
