85 grand a year

Wouldn't say it's great for the hours I do, but I do it for the children!

Wow didnt know teachers get paid so much

inb4 do you realise how much teachers work mate

[HEKT1K]

just get a 5k SSS. if you want to mod, its cheap. service cheap. fuel efficient when you want it to be.

your 20k you save will be much more worthwhile in deposit than on car that will cost you more in service and insurance etc.

Right on cue

[xALmoN]

i'd like to be on 85k.

[emts]

Birds is contemplating the universe via memes

Hamish works with idiots

Plattsys car doesn't work

Leesh and Ric are going to joust for a passenger headlight

Mohsen is always wrong about everything, but said something funny

Grant is instigating fights for his own amusement

Aaron is probably going to be the first one blown up when the invasion happens

Also I just ordered 48 dumplings to be delivered to work, we're hungry as hell here but can't be stuffed going out.

I get to come home tomorrow....

Don't think you'd like my job though

[Count Grantleyish]

I work funny hours coz retail.

[viper2002]

Choose my hours and work from home being a digital project manager / web developer. That might change next year though, I'll miss the freedom being able to go somewhere during the day and not having to let my boss know.

[xALmoN]

Don't think you'd like my job though

if my girlf was on your payscale, i don't think she'd be quitting. teachers in singapore are paid just about a third of what you are paid.

[Miguelone]

Would imagine WA teachers get paid more due to cost of living being higher?

[UNR33L]

Right on cue

Haha.

Hamish yeah I like them but couldn't justify <30k on a 8 year old car that looks the same as the 7!

[Birds]

WA teachers are the highest paid in the country. Leesh has been doing it for 9 years so, although a solid income, for the experience and the hours put in it's kind of meager.

Should be much more, same with nursing and Ambo workers.

[Birds]

Also, leave for work at 8:15, get home 5:30 brah here

85k puts her in the top 20% income earners Australia and they get a large amount of holidays so really I don't think $85k is all that bad

I do agree however re nurses etc

part time retail, hours varying like a baws.

when i was full time living the intern lyf in summer tho, i was expected 9-5, but varied from like 8:30-6. that said, there was a guy that'd come in at 7, 7:30 and then bugger off at 3, 3:30. they were pretty flexible. so i'd say it'd depend on office.

but at this time i'd also work part time, nothing like 2 job same day hours.

edit: teaching 85K seems pretty solid. i remember my methods teacher in y11 told me he was making 75K i think... and he'd been working for decades. fuqdat. i'd sell out go private easy

dem holidays doe.

[UNR33L]

Yeh usually I leave about 8:10 get home 4:50 one big reason I still like where I work.

Inb4 eastlink drags at 8:15

buy an evo leigh

my unbiased opinion

[UNR33L]

buy an evo leigh

nahhh I would much rather a 2011 WRX than a 2005 evo lol

Thing needs to save me money not cost! Or else I'd keep my 16l/100 v8 m8

Going to squires loft .. Inb4 ash spits in my food

[kaitoukid]

just had a quick squizz on carsales, 2011 wrx seems to be 25-30k. haven't been in one of those, only driven an 06. they're nice. but i don't know if you'll enjoy it coming from your v8 lol. just doesn't pull hard enough. although you're on boost... all the time. sti and evo different story but then again looks like you also want something newer (and accordingly new sti's or x's are more kesh money)

edit:

cray waffle i posted earlier aside, damn i could go for a steak right now.

dat delicious protein saus.

edit 2:

buy an a45 amg (only 3x the cost dw) ... dat frugality... and excellent for chasing ramen van's

I'll save Leesh attacking you lol

Living in WA puts her in the most expensive state for ongoing living expenses, it's all relative. There's a reason the FIFOs aren't saving that much money besides blowing it on coke and hookers.

Teacher work doesn't end when school holidays start either - popular misconception. They go into work all the time during holidays and spend a lot of their spare time marking work and planning lessons. Not just saying that cause my girlfriend is a teacher, but because I've seen first hand how much she works during the so called holidays; even has to bring work with her when she visits me. Not saying that I don't put in unpaid overtime in a non-teaching job, but it's a guaranteed necessity for teaching. That along with getting treated like ass by kids you can't even discipline or blame for most of the stuff they do. Can't stand up for yourself at all cause schools obsessed with pleasing parents these days and parents think their kids are fkin angel victims. You'd have to really love kids and wanting to make a difference to want to be a teacher!
