I’ve always worn company PPE but I’m contracting now and need to have my own. I’m usually office based but do spend time in pits, workshops, refineries…
What are the best comfy pants? Im a size 16/18.
Best hoody/jacket - bonus if it’s water proof
Any other PPE related thoughts welcome
I’ve just purchased a BYD and enquired with an electrical company for a quote for home charging… and they said they needed my landlord information before they could quote. I said I wanted to go to the landlord (a business not a person) with the quote and offer to pay (pending seeing the quoted cost of course) and they said no - they had to contact the owner to quote.
Has anyone come across this in WA?
I left a senior role in a company last year where I was earning $250K+ to spend time with my kids and have a career break following a messy separation and an incident at work where I receive a payout. I’ve been consulting for a few months sporadically and still earning the equivalent of $200K because it’s contract and not consistent.
Because I’m a single parent and I’ve always been a good earner, I admit I have bad spending habits as I’ve never had to be frugal. I lost my house in my divorce and so am renting and have small savings after fighting my ex and paying lawyers.
I was offered a senior role at a small company today. The company seems amazing. I think culturally it would be a great fit with flexibility too. However the salary is only $130K.
My rent is $36.4K pa, my grocery bill is $24K pa and I put aside $52K pa for all bills (fuel, subscriptions, insurance, kids sport and school etc). That’s $112K - my whole income.
How do people do it? Am I being an entitled bitch (and it’s okay if you say I am). I really want this role but I can’t see how I can do it when I’m a solo parent…
