Anyone work or know someone that works in the Department of Industry, Science, Energy and Resources and/or Department of Finance.
Been offered jobs as a System Integration and Product Delivery Support Officer and Operational Support Officer which both include getting paid to achieve a diploma but highly unlikely to take them as too happy doing what I do now not working full time.
Also offered a Business Analyst role in Services Australia but definately turning that down as I've been there and done that.

Just curious as to what those two Departments are like to work for if I decided to do something stupid.

A couple of mates are using them and rate them, the prices seem a bit unreal.

What network do Kogan use?

I rarely use my phone, got something like 200gb data w/ unlimited calls/text with Kogan for $150 a year

Network is fine in Adelaide but a bit patchy in country areas

Use Belong Mobile for my kids.
$15 a month, on the Telstra network.
No complaints

I have an Optus deal - free national calls and texts and 3gb of data per month - for $25 per month.
I rarely use more that one Gigabyte per month as I use my laptop and NBN service for most Internet activities.
That service is $59.95 per month on NBN 50 with 100GB per month and it is rare that I use half of that allowance either...

Oh, and my OPPO A73 phone cost me $269 outright, unlocked.

It appears that @HH3 and @amber_fluid are each about 4 games away from playing significant milestone games this year.

HH3 sitting on 146 and AF on 196.

Will they pull on the boots to make the magic 150/200? ;) :lol:

I was on that figure 12 years ago when I finished playing.
Pulled the boots on in the B grade one year after that for half a dozen games to get it.
But I don’t think they updated it.

Newly updated this morning. Start warming up for C grade pal. There's 18 games, so 1 at every 4 weeks will give you time to recover between each game :lol:

I work in the industry LM and 100% agree with them, don't touch Vodafone. Least amount of coverage out of the 3 providers. I'd recommend Boost if you have pre-paid. you can pay $20 or $30 a month and get a decent amount of data for the month and they run off the Telstra network so you'll have coverage in majority of SA where ever you go. I had Boost from 2014 to the start of the year and only changed to Telstra so i could get 5G as Boost won't be offering it any time soon.

That's what my mates say, they don't go out of Prospect much though.

Thanks mate, I'm currently on a BYO plan with Telstra that continues to grow a couple of dollars every few months, I still have the internet and the wife's phone in my name too (2x$55 plus $90 internet) despite not being there since June so I wanna save myself some coin where I don't need to spend it, I have a work phone that I use more than my normal phone.

Boost seems to be the way to go from all reports.
