Hi all I just have a question and would love some input on the matter.

I’m currently working full time in warehousing on 65k per year. My hourly rate is $32.89.

I have been toying with the idea of going casual at my company. It will give me an extra 25% of my current hourly rate and take it up to $41.11 an hour.

I am not the breadwinner, my wife makes double my salary at over $130k and has quite a secure job in Human Resources. Our current structure works really well with her dropping the kids off and me being able to pick them up from school. We have a mortgage only, no car loans and are quite comfortable.

I am still very confident that I will continue to get full time hours at my current role and it will continue to be a great balance to manage the kids schedule and keep them out of after school care.

I understand I could easily get more money by looking for other jobs but our current situation just works and works well. I just feel like I am being left behind quite quickly as my pay hasn’t moved in over 5 years.

Should I stick to my current full time wage and try and get a little increase (will be lucky to be $1 an hour or so) or transition to full time casual and take a big pay increase but loose my sick and holiday leave.

Would love others input and if anyone has done anything similar.

Hi all, I’ve had my i206 AWD for a couple of weeks now and loving it. It’s currently parked near a power point for power to charge but it’s not in the best of spots. I want to move it out into the lawn area but there is no power. I was looking at portable power stations with a solar panel but I’m unsure if I need a specific size power station to be able to charge the mower.

If anyone has any insight or experience I would love to hear about it.
