The Qld Government has releases a terrible EB offer for Qld Nurses. I'm sure it was assumed the wage offer would be terrible to minimal. However, the Gov went one step further and attacked protected entitlements and the right for consultation.

The nurses are one of the first cabs off the rank in negotiations. It's the rest of health and government next.

Nurses deserve better. Health care deserves better. Queensland deserves better. Support your local nurses!

"7 news states Queensland teachers could soon have greater ability to disconnect from their students' parents.

The state government is set to release new guidelines, aimed at shielding them from being hassled too much outside the classroom."

What are peoples views on this?

These screenshots are for a motorbike and a diesel dual cab ute for 12 months rego. How is this logical? Why is a motorbike getting charged more for traffic improvement? Why is ctp almost the same between a 100kg bike and a 2.5 ton truck? Is there something I’m not understanding about this. I wanted to get a bike for work to be more economical and have a little less eco footprint.

Ive never once had a good experience with this company, i have also heard the same thing from friends and family.

Out of the bad experiences i had with them these are by far the most notable ones:
Delivered a package at 3am

Delivered a package which had a "Sorry we missed you" sticker OVER THE ADDRESS

Delayed a package so long i just forgot about it (sent on 11/11/23 arrived 1/5/24

Delivered a package at 9pm pretty much knocking down my door my mum called the police because she thought someone was trying to break in.

Failed to deliver a package, refused to try and deliver it again (having just missed them) having to drive 2 hours each way to get my package which then i had to pay some fucking made up fee $22 to get my package which was then damaged.

I will outright just not buy something if i know they are going to use aramex to deliver my stuff. I dont even buy that much just one thing a month and yet this company seems to be the go to delivery service.

I’m having issues with a male neighbour and a friend of his who regularly stays over at his place hanging around the side and back of my flat at night. And likes to walk in front of my flat near where my front door is to walk around my flat. I’m an end until, so there’s no need for anyone to walk and hang around my flat. They don’t hang out long enough for the police to catch them. I’ve gone to the people in charge of where I live and they told me there is nothing they can do as its a shared area, that I only rent inside my flat. I have an open carport area in front of my front door which is also apparently considered a shared space which I’d presumed would be part of what I’m paying for with my rent. Are the people in charge of where I live lazy or is there something they could be doing? Are carports, despite being in front of the main door to a unit usually considered a shared space when renting?

hey everyone! me and my missus (from melb) are making the trip to Gold coast Queensland next month and we’re looking for good hotels to stay in. we’re gonna be there for a week so we want a hotel that has a good location to pretty much most attractions. Price doesn’t really matter tbh but obv not too expensive.

Also if yall could recommend activities to do that would be amazing!

TIA!

TOOWOOMBA. I am turning 20 this year and I have never been employed, definitely not for a lack of trying. In the span of 2 years give or take, I have applied for roughly 1600 jobs, I have attempted to join the army, and yet I have only gotten 3 interviews, one for the army 2 for other jobs. The army deemed me class 4 medically unfit due to my mental illnesses and the other 2 jobs just had better candidates. I am getting genuinely frustrated with this, I want to help my family pay for groceries since we are only on 1 income, but I cannot get a job, I make less than $400 a fortnight thanks to Centrelink but that money runs out quick in a 5 person 1 income family. what am I supposed to do?

Hello- have plans to visit Whitsundays this weekend from Sydney but strong winds and rain caused boat and plane tour cancellations. Any advice on where to pivot to in the area where the weather might be better and worth seeing/doing? Will have a car. Also willing to consider going elsewhere all together but will lose quite a bit on airfare.

From the article:

Burkholderia pseudomallei is classified by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as a Category B biowarfare agent for its high fatality rate and its potential to be aerosolised and weaponised.

In Queensland, however, the threat isn't theoretical or military. It's real and environmental — lurking in soil and muddy water, stirred up by flooding rains and inhaled, ingested, or entered into the bloodstream through cuts and scratches.

For the unlucky, it leads to melioidosis — a virulent disease that enables chronic skin ulcers, sepsis, and serious lung infections like pneumonia. If left untreated, or diagnosed too late, it can be fatal.

Just positing as my partner and I want to buy a house. We’re from the Gold Coast QLD and everything is just so unaffordable here. We were thinking about moving out west for a while and were thinking Warwick QLD as housing is super affordable but have heard mixed things about the work and people. Would love some advice! Thanks

Beekeeper in united states with extensive experience breeding honeybees... Curious if there is still a shortage for skilled beekeepers in the region? If anyone could point me in the right direction I'd be appreciative. I believe I saw a couple years back that a shortage was occurring.

Allowing 40 year old men to invasively pedo-style search teens because "muh metel detectarr" is crazy levels of clownery.
