I could really have a field day based on what you just wrote. Its pretty damn obvious that you're looking at all of this based on MBA's and doctorates as some kind of sexy status symbols you feel the need to acquire, without having the faintest clue as to the work required, what they actually...

What lecture theatres are we talking about here? CT202 or GDTH?

Its not so much lecturer shortages, but more the fact that a lot of the courses that some of the school offer have become extremely stale, mainly through the co-ordinators. There just doesn't seem to be anywhere near the amount of go-forward for these schools as im seeing in certain research...

Thats complete bullshit. For the purposes of what im going to point out to you, im going to assume that Centrelink = Independent Youth Allowance (as that is what the majority of students that are receiving benefits are receiving them under). Independent Youth Allowance students you around...

Overrated:The Bar on The Hill. I really dont see the attraction. Its not that great, everything about it looks budget. Get some decent furnishings and bar taps in there, and try with a theme, because last time I was there, it looked like a patch quilt. Also, is it just me, or is the...

In regards to the maths dept, you've obviously heard the news that the uni is recruiting two new professors, Borwein and Boland to develop "a world-class centre for computer assisted research mathematics and its applications." So, what do you this this means for the department? Do you think its...

This Michael kid is definately a troll. You can't seriously tell me, even taking into consideration he's yet to sit his HSC, that he is legit. Its quite fucking astounding.

No, I dont want to know about your uncle, jumb. Overrated: The land the uni is on. Wtf? No, I dont care how you try and spin it, the tree's and shrubs dont make me feel more at ease or positively influence my studies in any way. Rather, im actually walking around slapping all uncovered...

PhD =/= higher paying job/better position. PhD = academic career MBA = Assists in gaining a management role in a company, does not guarantee.

http://tlu.ecom.unimelb.edu.au/pdfs/Completing_a_PhD.pdf Probably the most relevant to this topic is the last page, point 14, second para.

Yeah, on that occassion, of course. My point was that if you're going to pay for it out of your own pocket, and/or the company doesn't stipulate that upon completion, you'll be offered X position in the company, then its an expensive way to pursue a personal interest. If you have the money...

So...you want to be an, academic? From where im sitting, unless you're not looking at doing an MBA/PHD reimbursed through an employer, arming yourself with anything past Honours and possibly a Grad Cert when going for grad positions and you're better off heading into an academic career...

Having spoken to Regional Managers about this, basically what happened last year is they took on way too many people for the Christmas period. Thats fine, its understandible that demand was less than expected. But its the way that the store managers and assistant managers handled the situation...

Just confirmed that im going to Fiji in October for 4 days for a work conference. All expenses paid and the such. Woo!

Quit your bitching, and learn from your mistake. Everybody knows Cotton On is a shit employer.

Look for Jap cars, around mid 90's. Toyota and Mazda's are the cheap reliable cars for the low end price market. With low kms (around 200k), if you treat them well and service them, they should last you quite a while. I have a friend who has a 92 Corolla with 290,000 on it and it runs fine...

You miss out on a lot of the uni "experience" by doing Distance Education, but distance is obviously a lot more flexible so that you can combine full-time work in your chosen field as well as study, and its because of these links that some students cend up with really good marks. Depends very...

Source: http://wwos.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=300870 This is a massive loss for Melbourne. Of course, its understandible why he made the choice to leave, but to me, its still unexpected. I thought he would have stayed on.

Storm are having some issues with their attack. They had quite a few chances in the second half to attack the Roosters line, and failed on pretty much all occasions. It took them 75 minutes to score some points through Slater, otherwise it would have been the first time in 5 years that they had...
