Hope it isn't for you or your wife mate.

There was a guy that came into my work who deals around employment law and cases (we were all subject to a 1.5 hour course). Will get his details tomorrow and let you know. This guy has his own business and also a Private Investigation business around unfair employment.

Will let you know tomorrow, if I don't post up here shoot me an SMS. :rolleyes:

Sorry for the late reply, this is the guy who came in and spoke to my work:

Name: Garside Consulting

Street Address: 627 Riversdale Road

Suburb: Camberwell

Postcode: 3124

State: VIC

Phone 1: (03) 98820875

Good luck :D

Ive Got passed the scare campaigns, I was awarded my job back at the IRC with back pay, not bad for a new member, was just to easy, I wish getting my R back on the road was as easy, talk about pleasure and pain dealing with these things, and good luck to Ziad.

Join a union and let them handle it first before seeing a lawyer, employers shit them selves when the union walk in.

The only way the union have a lot of power is if it is a union work site, there not going to stick there neck out for one person paying $5pw in dues when its going to cost them a few thousand to fight for them.

I have a friend who works at bluescope and have been hearing about all the dodgy things they have been doing to get rid of people and even with all the members that the union have at that site there are still times when the union have no power to do anything.

The trick is you have to have some good people around you or your gone, make sure you keep a diary on any meetings with management and stick to your guns and dont bullshit, (let the management do that) it all comes out in the wash.

Its not for everyone, it just worked for me without the cost of a lawyer and it maybe an option for Ziad, it depends on the workplace as well and the issues at hand, best to avoid altogether if you can, anyway Im going for pizza yum yum!!

OK, after the outcome from today will update.

Unfair dismissal case, clear cut, no warnings etc.

Friends in a few HR depts confirmed the legislation. Called the above company who also confirmed.

Dropped all the details into Fair Work Australia. They confirmed clear cut case.

Conciliation meeting organised.

1 x person who has nothing to lose and understands the case (friend) and victim + 1 x arrogant previous employer + FWA = new arsehole torn, FWA in agreeance and compensation paid.

There is a free website for assistance if required http://www.jobwatch.org.au/

:P

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
