You don't understand finance. You need to listen to GEM more. I guess we all do.

Economic value = What you take out.

It has absolutely nothing to do with what you contribute.

Geez, pay attention.

I do need to listen to GeM a lot more, I know that, only throws me off.

I'm going to hire him as an accountant.

He won't work for your filthy capitalist pig money.

There's always a catch

I had to edit my post, I meant to say "He", not "We".

I would have no problem working for your filthy capitalist pig money.

Do you have any positions available for whatever the hell it is I do??

No.

How are you with tissues?

I'm like a blackbelt.

Although if it's someone good with tissues you're after, you might want to ask Manbush first.

I'd want an expert to inspect the quality of tissues first, guessing they're just dodgy street corner quality not even 80% pure.

Speak for yourself, I may be fat and lazy but not over paid or self-entitled.

If you get more than $15 bucks an hour, you're over paid

No one got my Simpsons reference. Dark days in the GH.

At least during Furners reign no Simpson reference went unnoticed.

Nah I'd expect him to be 100% serious, just Nick being Nick and jumping to assumptions without having a clue

What have i assumed incorrectly here, Hanbush?

Well to determines ones job value surely you actually require some details, like workload, responsibilities, turnover, money someone brings into the company and how hard they work.

Actually, Australia is the only country in the world where one's 'job value' is set by two groups of people, completely unrelated to either the employee or employer, with no understanding whatsoever of the specific circumstances of either nor those of the job itself yet who have the absolute legal authority to determine pay and all other aspects of the employment relationship.

Seems logical.

Na, i think I'm on pretty solid ground on this one without knowing those facts. Unless you've completed some form of tertiary education that i'm unaware of.

You are an idiot

For the record yes I have, but even without how does that determine if someone's over or underpaid, surely there are more important factors in play for real life rather than superficial. Ive known pricks who've worked their rings off for bugger all money who didn't have any further education, see them work and they are extremely underpaid for what they do yet other who have the eduction and bludge on a high wage.

What is your tertiary education, MB?
Genuinely interested.

Done a few cert 4s over the years, one of those pricks that coasted through school with no idea what I wanted to do (changed monthly) so never went to uni since would've been a waste of time and money since I had no clue on what to do. Different times then than now, if I had known society would evolve to where a piece of paper even if irrelevant to the job would increase value I would've just picked one out of a hat.

My current job I'm qualified for and get paid more than those without the qualifications despite doing the exact same job, working just as hard which to be honest I think stinks, the piece of paper makes me no better at my job then they are, no more valuable. (Probably cause 85% of the 2 year course was irrelevant to the actual job, 5% was incorrect and the remaining 10% was already learnt on the job).

Sounds like he has a few Associate Diplomas in Arts.

Although no form of education can quite prepare you for the real world like a few anecdotes from some whacky mates and good ol' Google.

Such as...

Management, retail, optical dispensing, one other I can't remember for the life of me.

Uni courses I considered back in the day were all over the shop, law, nursing and art were the main 3 though.

Cert 4 in Early Childhood Studies would be my first guess.

All jokes aside that was something I also considered along with primary school teacher, I love kids (not in that way smart asses) and get on great with em, I remember the differences between the good and bad ones I had and the impact they can have on development.

I hope this is a joke

Hanbush as a primary school teacher!
You couldn't make this **** up!

Actually it isn't TR, I get on great with kids (probably to do with being a big kid myself). I'm probably one of the safest people you could leave someone vulnerable with, I'd die for those in my care before I'd let anything happen to them.

I like you, Manbush. You seem like a decent guy.

If you came within 30 meters of my children, I'd have you killed.
