From VIC - I’m sick of seeing my local roads with median strip weeds taller than my car, patchy potholes on the state roads, rubbish imbedded along freeways. How can a council run at an apparent surplus yet some of the major roads within its boundaries look like this. Thoughts?
Hey all,
My wife and I have our 10 year wedding anniversary coming up and I’m planning a weekend away, just the two of us.
We’re in Victoria but happy to travel for the right place.
Where would you recommend? Keen to hear about places, accommodation or experiences you’ve loved.
Cheers!
I need to sit the STAT test to get into the diploma I need. I only need to sit the multiple choice one but its $240!!!! I am on DSP and unable to work, I barely have enough to survive let alone throw away $240 to MAYBE get into a one year course. You don't get back the fee if you don't pass. There are no concessions
My (hopefully) future university has told me they can't guarantee they'll even reassess my application after I do the test. This feels like a fucking scam. I knew it would cost me but I thought it'd be around $100! it's insane that I need to do this to get into just a diploma of arts because I didn't excel in my last two years of schooling 6 whole years ago :|
I am so distraught and angry. I don't know where to go from here, I simply can't afford that. Just needed to whine about it haha
Hi! A question I wanted to ask is, is there a cheaper option for doctors and therapy to be less expensive with only a Medicare card in VIC?
I talk to a doctor for ten minutes, ask for a referral and a mental healthcare plan. I was told I wasn't eligible to 10 free sessions, I was given a new medication, and I was charged 284 dollars. I could pay half, pay the rest 3 days later and got a rebate of 160 back (which wasn't too bad, but was still expensive for me.) I need to see the doctor every 2 months and I can't afford it so I dont go on and off. I need to speak to someone like a therapist but it costs over 200 dollars for an hour- maybe 45 minutes. I haven't gone.
Long story short, I don't know where I could go to make payments not be quarter of my fortnightly pay, or if its just like that for everyone in Victoria?
