      My very first pay cheque, my dad gave me some sage advice - that is: Don’t spend it all on the one woman. OK, he was ex-navy but still sage advice.

              How awful. Don’t hesitate to call the police if it happens again. Domestic violence is not only between partners, but often parent/child too. Unfortunately, renovations might mean they plan to stay long term. I feel your pain.

    Bro, do not get your chili oil from the supermarket. I can drizzle this shit and hardly taste it.

    I got some Mrs C’s chili oil and a couple of drops of that will bore out my arsehole.

    I went to Benjamin’s Kitchen last week, great Asian fusion place in Alphington I haven’t been to for years. They sell their own chili oil, I should have got some

      I love Cempasuchil Mexican Tijuana oil, if you ever see it. I especially love the Oaxacan oil (it’s got a smoky flavour). I used to work with the lady who makes it and the Tijuana oil doesn’t mess around.

          There is a lot of it around, and plenty of it is mediocre as you’ve discovered. They use and sell Bippi where I work and it’s ok for what we use it for (Italian style foods that have a little kick in the background like a la vodka sauce, but nothing that’s going to kick your arse with heat).

    Highkey amused by my employer. Not the actual place I work, but the casual agency I get paid through. Seems to just be the one woman running it (so also a small local business), and she’s lovely.

    I’d filled out and sent back all the onboarding docs before I started, including bank details, tfn, and super.

    Well I was supposed to be paid yesterday, so I messaged her to check it was all good. She said yep. Then I get a email link (automated) from her to sign into a platform and put the same details in. So I started doing it, but it kicked me out saying the invite has expired.

    She then texts me last night and says that because it’s first pay it may be delayed, should have it tomorrow (today).

    I’m not upset, I’m amused lol I reckon, because it seems to just be her, she forgot to input my details manually, realised what happened, and put them in herself (hence the auto email, I reckon she signed in and added me and it sends an auto email), revoked the invite, and processed it after 5pm yesterday. I can’t stop giggling, I wonder if my partner could help her (accounting cert) hahah

      Not the actual place I work, but the casual agency I get paid through

      now I’m wondering how much your work place pays the agency.

      you might be getting only 50-75% of your pay

      eventually see if you can be directly paid by your work place, your pay might increase

      and I am unamused, the delay is unacceptable, imagine if an employee had children to feed or life saving meds like insulin to buy that day

        An agency wanted us to pay above award for a casual (absolutely no problem with that) with an extra $15+ an hour on for the agency and if we chose to keep them we have to pay them a finder’s fee. I get you’ve gotta run the agency, but that’s a steep bill for a small business!

        Yeah I have a 6 month probation before the workplace will considering hiring me themselves. So I just gotta prove myself :) we’ll see if they don’t burn me though lol

        Totally get your point about kids and meds; I’m in a position of privilege as I don’t have to worry about that today. It would be shitty af if I did have to consider that though for sure.

        It’s a good rate, over $30 per hour so I’m not complaining :)

This community is a place created for the people of Melbourne and Victoria. We are a positive, welcoming and inclusive community. We might not agree about everything, but we always strive to stay civil and respectful.

The focus of our discussions is based around things that affect Victoria, but we are also free to discuss our local perspective on wider issues. Or head to the regular Daily Random Discussion thread to talk about anything.
