"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

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.

    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it. 
    • Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.
