9762291220 Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 And also are there any other ongoing benefits included in package, e.g. company car or free meat/weekly food allowance etc. And type of job/location/hours etc would be useful. Do you find the money adequate, and if not, why not?Just curious as to what people get paid these days for their regular jobs (not including money made from selling gear).

9762291220 Posted October 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Not troll thread, just was interested what everyone is getting for different jobs different places and what those jobs and locations are. I get $105k + $5k bonus +super phone/laptop etc. Supposed to get new hilux but hasnt happened yet so just bought older 97 model for personal use (best ones offroad anyway) and just use a company fuel card to fill up plus extra 100L in 20L fuel containers lol.Hours are 60ish/week but I get every 5th week off. I consider myself underpaid, although the money is enough to cover what i consider to be reasonable personal expenses and for a starting salary its acceptable remuneration I guess.Anyway chuck yours up br0s.

Phedder Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 I love how this site always finds ways to have a dick measuring contest *good* Since June my pay hasn't been the greatest, though more than enough to live very comfortably on. However overall lifestyle and work enjoyment is the best it's ever been, wouldn't trade that for a $100k+ a year salary being trapped in an office 50+ hours a week.

Gym rat Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 15 hours per week plus I get free membership at world fitness which is included in my contract and get paid 18.50 per hour including holiday pay as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9762291220 Posted October 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Not a dick measuring contest. Best way to find out about better opportunities is through other people. People making real money dont work for others anyway and have multiple people like us working for them. I probably spend 2 hours a day in the office, rest outside.

9762291220 Posted October 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Money is generally better in australia than in nz. For what I do its usually worse money in the bigger australian cities as theyre more popular places to live. Suits me fine as I prefer living near to places with around 100,000-200,000 people as its big enough to have everything you need and enough people but not a shit hole you end up trapped in with major traffic problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wookie Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 I'm up around 70k total package, but job requires me living in a bigger house than I'd need and spending a fair bit hosting people. If I wanted to be making money I'd be doing something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
