I'm a civil engineer, 50k per year first year out of Uni

Same here. Well undergraduate to be exact. Its good to know that there are more engineering positions available in the civil field than there are students studying the course :)

More than 50k for a 1st year????? I find that very hard to believe.

I was on peanuts and bottle caps my first year.

Haha...

you may find it hard to beleive... but i am.... industrial law.... if you work in a company for more than like 6 months full time when you take an apprentiship they can not drop your base pay... hence you start on a very good pay, only thing is that you are limited to the height of the bandwidth of the pay... i worked in heavy industry for 4 years before i got my apprentiship,

I worked random jobs during uni... selling wigs down at Paddy's Markets, did the Ebay thing.. worked at Gloria Jeans making coffee for f*ckwits and d*ckwads for two years... I managed to save a bit of $$$ but then moved out with my brother...

Now I'm a stay at home mother of three (all under 5 years old) currently doing a correspondence course in financial services... I love my kids but being a housewife is not my thing!... I miss working and the daily interraction with real adult people!

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
