The Barry Way south of Jindabyne is fucked, till well past Suggan Buggan. I’d only consider it if you’re in a 4WD that you don’t care about trashing, and you’re not worried about being stuck 100kms from the nearest mobile phone reception.
Thanks for the tip!
I'll see if I can incorporate that in the trip.
Only just now getting around to acting on this.
Livetraffic is giving me a much better idea on where the affected flood regions are.
Thanks!
The government heavily regulated and controlled the taxi plates and cab industry. This isn’t “free market” like the stock market or a coffee shop. Imagine any industry having a government regulated meter that calculates the price you can charge for your product…
Taxi drivers would get a fine for not wearing a uniform correctly, their green slips and rego was $7500 per year etc etc. Uber came in, underpriced their trips to break the highly regulated industry.
If the government banned Uber we wouldn’t be compensating them.
Now I’m no champion for poor taxi behaviour and their lack of improving the industry but when you have to play by strict punitive rules and other don’t I’d be wanting compo too
They shouldn't get any payout. It is the taxi's own fault through their shoddy service that uber was able to thrive. If they provided a better service then people wouldn't have abondoned them so quickly.
So the government is just recouping the payout by charging $1 extra levy on passengers until 2030.
tax payers paying for uber's offshore theft effectively.
There are no other industries where if you get a major disruption in the market would the “fail to pivot” sector get paid out.
I support this going to the owner/drivers but NOT to the people that 'invested' in Taxi plates. You invest, the market moves, you lose.
Paying taxi plate investors is just totally wrong.
I hope it's a 1 time offer that doesn't get extended. You got your out, now go
I’d agree if it was a fair fight but Uber basically came in, declaring they are going to make a loss for years to overthrow the market and then rule as the dominant player. Investors saw long term growth and piled in. How is a lone cab driver supposed to complete with that?

This is my mantra.
We've had the $1 levy since 2018, this will add another 20c to it.

The reward taxi investors were receiving was because there was risk involved. Why should taxpayers provide guaranteed returns to those who chose to invest?
Because that risk profile was significantly different to what the government advertised.
I think the taxi industry has been garbage for years and I’m glad to see the back of it. That said, imagine the NSW government sold you a license for $$$$ while giving you an iron clad assurance that they’d strictly limit the amount of licenses they sold to make sure you had a sustainable business from operating that license. Then nek minnit they did nothing to prevent another operator from operating thousands of unlicensed totally-not-taxis-honest. You’d kinda want your money back, right?

"There will only ever be droughts in the future..."
Yep, totally agree with you, especially when we had the droughts, would have been a great time to build more storage while there’s no water to contend with

Hey! So im going to start working in Byron in mid december and from what im seeing right now, accommodation is in a bad situation. Hard to find apartments and hostels are either booked out/expensive as hell.
I have my SUV which I concerted to a camper (its not the best, but it suited me for my traveling) and I was wondering if you think its a good option to stay long term at a camping site in the city? And do you have any rec’s on good and cheap camping sites? How much should that cost me? Thanks!
Hey mate try hipcamp if you have your own campervan, it's way cheaper than hostels/apartments in that area.
Look out of town.

Thanks but hipcamp doesnt seem to offer me campsites with facilities and sadly im not self sufficient. I need a shower /:
A rope and shower bucket is basic.
Ok! Im glad to hear it is.
Still, I need toilet and showers in a campsite if thats ok with you sir?
You can buy porta-potties as well,if you don't have a long handled shovel.
im just curious what you lot think
Best for what? Are you looking for a nice building to take photos of, or to join a congregation?
Holy Spirit Lavington
Best for what exactly?
Best for emptying your wallet? Probably one closest to a large city.
Best for inappropriate touching of children by priests? Probably out in the country.
Best for thinking your get closer to some magical being for you own personal selfish gain? Every signle one!

I admire your… let’s say “optimism”in asking this kind of question on reddit.
However, you’re preaching to the wrong crowd here as the majority of redditors are atheists or indifferent at best, or militantly opposed to organised religion at worst.
That being said, I’d say the best Catholic Church are the ones who don’t try to shove their brand of rank hypocrisy down our throats.
Idek aye just looking for peoples opinion
Yeah w haven’t been there but seems good
Now you see Depends what church you go to and I know the media and world say as such but most people in the church are ok people but of course as it is in most faiths and religions but if you truely Experience the Holy Ghost regardless Catholic or not See you only have your point of view but if you believe in your truth your own personal truth than that won’t really work out because as we know there is only one truth and look that’s your point of view and I love you for it but if you truely experience the truth than you’d think differently. Respond if you want to but look God Loves you nothing will change that
in no way am i preaching all i did to begin with is post a Question on reddit because i wanted to know you guys opinion
We get lots of people moving from capital cities for St Mary McKillop school in Jindera (part of the Lavington Parish) two priests look after the Lavington and Jindera churches
Yep god loves me. Which god though? Your god? Allah? Hindi? Which god?
Its okay, lots of parents brain wash their children into believing in things that dont exist. Some see the world for what it is. Some think they can change the world. My favourite are the ones who do unspeakable things to others but then find god and all is forgiven.
God loves you too. Now give yourself a pat on the back knowing that if you suck up to it/him/her just right, you win yourself whatever your mind can make up once your dead.
Now you see you may think that’s the truth but the thing is, do you think we’re just here by chance? And thinking that is very not smart now I’m not saying all is forgiven no not by any means but what I’m saying is, is that if you want genuine change in your life and your genuinely sorry to God than all will be forgiven look and that’s only because he Gave his Son to die on a Cross so that we can be forgiven my life is proof obviously you won’t believe me but if you actually experience the Holy Spirit than yeah every creation has a creator Look If u want to go for a theological debate with me than not tonight man I’m too tired but nonetheless God Bless you
It's horrific what happened at Eugowra. It was like an inland tsunami, sweeping houses off their foundations, carrying cars and trucks away. Just tragic! Where will all the displaced people live while insurance is sorted and rebuilding can commence? And poor old Forbes is set to flood again - second time in 2 weeks.
Sorry this probably isn't the right place to post this but I don't know where is.
I live rurally (in nsw) with no way to access uni, but I hear you can do it all online now? How does that work? Couldn't I just google answers during a test?
The main reason I'm choosing teaching is because it seems to be the only thing where I'm nigh guaranteed a job (aside from nursing, but i'm a man and don't wanna). Is this true? How does it work once you have your degree?
It’s a hard job and most of us do it because we are passionate about it. For the sake of yourself and the children, set your sights on something else. There are skills shortages everywhere, I’m sure you’ll find your niche.
At the risk of seeming condescending, if you can’t figure out for yourself about how online university study works, then perhaps it is not for you.
Troll, perhaps? Unemployed more likely.
Do you have a degree? If so you can do a Masters of Teaching or Education (2 years).
Otherwise you'll need a Bachelor of Education.

Bad form for shaming someone for wanting some job security. They're absolutely correct in thinking that if they stay regional they'll never be out of work.
I know we all think teaching is some noble higher calling - and it definitely has a social benefit - but it's also been that thinking that's allowed souch mission creep and pressure to do unpaid overtime. It is, at the end of the day, a job.

thank you for the link. well it's not the only reason, i'm very good with kids and very good at teaching anything. the reason i said that is because i was doing an accounting degree previously, and when i walked into every accounting and finance related office in my city inquiring for an internship, and getting rejected everytime, i couldn't help but notice that i never once saw a young man in any of the offices. only old men, and some females. considering how many people were in my class, combined with the nearby unis as well, multiplied by the yearly output of evermore graduates.. i kinda realised i wasn't going to get a job with my useless piece of paper. the same is true for most other degrees. and yet without a useless piece of paper, i can't find a job anywhere else either. i ended up starting my own business and was successful for 11 yrs but now i'm back to where i started, unable to find a job.
after reading your link... lol... there's no way i'm doing all that. what an absolute joke. no wonder the only graduates for teaching now are low iq young girls. who's going to have the time to jump through all those hoops at my age? and what intelligent person wants to become a teacher at a young age? 21 yr olds shouldn't be teaching anybody. back in the day smart people would do teaching after having been successful elsewhere, as a source of satisfaction to give back to the community. now that never happens. requiring a degree has made the average teacher dumber than ever before. yet when there's a 'teacher shortage' their solution is not to scrap the degree, but to hire foreign? lmao.
what would i be able to do with that? i thought you had to have a bachelor's minimum to be hired as a school teacher nowadays
