Well my day just got interesting, my yardie (bloke that cleans cars and shit) was driving me to our other yard to pick up a car and he ran up the arse of a lady that i think was Indian driving a little Corolla.. she stopped in the middle of the road when there was nothing coming and the bull bar off our BT-50 did work of her rear bumper. My yardies up for a $500 excess and more than likely lost his job.

Hektik!

Well that's an interesting turn of events. Probably won't lose his job for a once off, would he?

Yep haha, yeah well my boss has been talking to me about wanting to f*ck him off because he's not doing things right anyway so i reckon this is the last straw. I reckon he'll have to wait a few weeks though or else it can be a fair work issue if my yardie tried to do anything about it.

He's a bit of a loser, wouldn't be suprised if he wasn't here tomorrow.

Damn you need to come up here, it's nearly 30 degrees by 8am i'm sick of it!

Major problem, its too expensive to get to the snow from there i <3 snow

also i dont think theres too many software dev jobs in Mackay!

High Vis is where it's at in QLD...

Used to bag a mate that QLD is the land of Hi Ves and Low IQ

Snowboarding > Most things

Absolutely love it.

Pity all the mining companies don't pay their office staff anything like the 'hands on' people and engineers.

They pay their office staff ridiculously well... Depends on the job thought. Internal accountants are circa $100k.

I know a head environmental officer out in the mines that makes close to $170k a year and i can't imagine she does a hell of a lot of "hard work"

about time it all evened out anyway - sick of seeing people who i know dropped out of school and are as thick of 5 bags of sh*t earning 150k and buying Range Rovers just for shuffling around in the dust at a mine site, while i worked my @ss off at school so i could spend 5 years at uni and have a massive HECS debt and a long climb up the corporate ladder ahead of me........<RANT>

+1 to all of this!

I've spent the last 6 years studying and still have one more to go as well as 3 years full time work and im still not earning that good money.

Although relocation overseas is now looking like my best bet :/

    • With the system, once you drive it for a bit, and before you turn the car off, does the car fix its date and time? When you say the date is wrong, what date does the vehicle think it is, and does it always show the same date? My thoughts from a process driven view is; The system may be defaulting to a standard start date/time. The main reason you'd typically see this occuring, is the system is losing its constant/backup power supply.   If its always defaulting to the same date/time at start up, and especially if it fixes itself while driving, I'd say either the non volatile memory has an issue, or the power supply to the volatile memory that stores this information.   The other thing I'd check is if there is anywhere in the system you can adjust the date and time from. If the date/time is still moving forward since it wished you happy new year, then it is 100% possible the system has just had a bit of data corruption occur, and you likely need to find a way to reset the date/time in the vehicle.
    • Scissor Jacks are an accident waiting to happen, the only time they should be used are in an roadside flat, even then a tyre and rim should be placed underneath 
    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
