Thanks for the links. Not sure if this is the award or not. She's in the hospital now and recovering so I'll try to hold back with questions until she's on her feet again.

Thanks for the detailed response. The union is hard at work trying to do a few things at that workplace so are hopefully on the case of trying to extract that promised permanency (it was promised for a few casuals so she's not alone in this). I'm not sure which union it is but I'll try to find out. If they're solidly on the case then it seems like something I can't really help by involving myself in, since I'm assuming that they're the experts in this kind of thing and I'm only the fiance of a relative of one of the employees involved.

The employer has been taking advantage of her for a while now. She's owed thousands in unpaid wages due to HR stuff-ups and is also rostered heavily for holidays; she hasn't had a Christmas or Mother's Day free for years now despite asking well in advance. Hopefully a precedence of screwing her about will count against them in front of an ombudsman. I don't know how much lawyers cost and this woman already seriously doesn't have a lot of money and can be kinda proud at times so might not accept me paying for a lawyer for her.

Edit: dodgy employer snipe

Make sure shes a paid up member, or you personally pay her dues for her. If she's not a member, sign her up and let her union rep help.

Document every time they've hosed her over. Hopefully there is emails or sms messages? If not, get her to do a statuary declaration

Having 1) your contract 2) your award 3) documents proving they've hosed her over will make the reps life much easier and justice faster

Ask not to whom the Anidavatar belongs; it belongs to thee.
Hey states, in exchange for less money I'll in return give you less money

quote:

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull has beefed up his argument in favour of allowing the states to directly levy a portion of income tax, arguing it could also allow them to directly fund public schools.

Mr Turnbull defended the announcement after criticism from a number of states, saying it had not come "out of the blue" and he was confident states would spend money "more wisely" if they directly collected it.

The Prime Minister has already suggested the states use the changes to directly fund hospitals.

This morning he told Radio National it was possible to make a "very powerful case" for the states to take over full responsibility for public school funding if they had direct access to income tax revenue

I wonder if this will also effect priva....

He said the Commonwealth would not relinquish control of funding for private and independent schools.

...oh.

COMEDY loving GOLD oh my god


NSFW:

quote:

“Yasmine didn’t believe in wearing bras; in fact, she really didn’t need to wear them as her breasts were still as firm as they had been in her late teens. Rono massaged her small, soft brown breasts, luxuriating in the silky complexion of her skin. He moved his hand up her inner thigh. ‘Yes,’ she moaned. ‘Do it now, please, don’t wait any longer.'”

I was taking the piss out of the Liberal guy who I assume is white? If I am mistaken then I apologise to him (Oh God I hope it's a he now) for what ever race he is that isn't the actual correct one.
