"Yarra Trams said its offer of a 9 per cent pay rise over three years was fair and in line with community expectations.

Tram drivers at Yarra Trams are the highest paid in Australia, earning more than $91,000 a year on average, the company said. Authorised officers earned an average wage of more than $89,000 in 2014-15."

I love it when the universe speaks to me... "You need to pee" or "you've had enough Tim tams"

Update....

Got an email from the bosses son / micro manager from the NY office.

How to respond, if I want to stay & show loyalty, but make them realise that a pay rise or similar would be needed to lock me down?

Got my NOA from the ATO, but the money isn't in my account yet... Could've sworn the NOA always came after the money was in the account.

Yeah usually get the refund about a week before the NOA comes through the mail

inb4 entered wrong bank account

Wow good work!

Do you know the turnover and what the profit levels of the business are? If so it can help ''determine" if they can afford to give you a pay rise.

That and it seems as they you are a valued employee. So it is unlikely they would refuse?

Want to put in a line at the bottom saying something like "I would like to stay on with the team, however I needed to look into what options are out there for someone with my skillset."

Told ya the ball is in your court - these guys need you - the benefits of proprietary coding, a technical knowledge asset and no easy replacement make for an invaluable employee that can within reason bring the company to it's knees. It's pocket aces.

However now is the time to be respectful...and to properly ask yourself if you want to stay there and if two changes, 1. A payrise/promotion and 2. An assistant (such as Leigh) would improve your working conditions and satisfaction.

If this is the case, as far as wording goes, I would say that you want to stay, but with the increased workload over time (therefore increased stresses) combined with the want to advance in your career path (you are 30 or nearly 30) has led you to review your options, but if they are willing to come to the table to address these two issues then you see no reason you can't remain with the company long term.

Something along those lines. Or you can keep playing coy, dismiss it as more workplace gossip. But it really does sound like they need you and are considering an assistant for you anyway - cheaper and easier to do this and a payrise than to get someone else in. You'll need to be clear about your intentions sooner or later as they will start to get annoyed after a while.

Sorta need a summary line after your 3 key points.

Your bottom line would be more so happy to stay with the team if you were happy with your remuneration and future growth of your role

Translation: Kate is an alcoholic victim of her step dad's child abuse who stumbles home from seedy bars slurring Def Leopard and Poison songs hoping to be taken advantage of / raped by homeless men just so she can feel sentient touch outside if her many cats.

She believes that good things come to those who don't work for them and expects the world on a silver platter, that one day she will be pretty-womaned out of her shithole existence. Good luck, Kate.

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
