Never been on a jetski, sure it'd be fun but I'd never use it.. barely use my motorbikes and they go on the ROAD!

On another note, what's the normal rise when getting promoted? keeping in mind it's still similar area of work etc.

3%

Remember how much fun your DRZ was? Picture that on water where you can't really hurt yourself.

Buy one second hand and flog it off if you don't use it? Or a spark, they are like 8k

What shits me about this is the same thing as ticket scalpers

Buy it with the intention of profiting and some true fan who actually wants it misses out

Same thing happened with the 86s, people were selling base model for 40k when there was a waiting list

Ninja 250Rs, people had $1000 premiums on them over brand new, selling second hand

no doubt like the "sold out" 86s plenty of people wont follow through with the orders and they'll pop up, have to be an absolute fool to pay such a premium on a certain to depreciate thing.

I've had anything from 1500 to 25K...

So depends on how good your negotiating and how desperate they are.

pants rise

Wouldn't call that a rise, a 3% increase is only just above WPI. Any less than that and you're technically getting paid less than you were last year thanks to inflation.

Well that was my pay increase, and other people's that I know of.

Yeah, but you guys already get paid too much seeing as you only work like 7 hours a day for maybe 30 weeks a year...

In corporate world, your job banding has a min-av-max salary.

Depending on your experience, they will place you somewhere on that scale.

Rule of thumb is to promote & shift you towards the middle of each band.

If you are below average a promotion yields more, if you are above the promotion will be less.

This prevents employees earning more than their bosses which would be a +1 job band jump.

most people would be lucky to get 2% a year... used to get it when I was on EBA. I can see why management wanted to get rid of it. people who sit there for 15+ years milk the cash bin dry.

Yep, I don't really persue careers where it flatlines with a 2% increase. To me that just feels like a wasted year, either you should be working to get in a higher position or move companies. Most industries aren't like that though, at least being a contractor it can be easier to negotiate your wage.

as a contractor you can charge whatever you want, just depends on who is willing to pay it. or you can undercut everyone to win work and then charge out the ass for extras.

im happy on my wage, overtime fluctuates a lot so that keeps things changing every few months i guess. havent had a consistent paycheck in a very long time.

lol @ timing of this topic. News just in, what I expected with the continual downfall of the commodity price...

No doubt will hit the news in the next 24hrs.

Somehow I don't think you coming out will hit the news

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
