Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 6m 12d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 20/08/12 02:44 AM Share Posted 20/08/12 02:44 AM Less payout figures for the company I guess.. 4 weeks for some of these blokes is getting near 16 grand..But they disguise it as a 'work/life' balance thing promoting 2 x 2 week holidays a year..Plus it's a bitch when someone goes away for a long time and we have to take over their work..I can see both sides of the coin in the argument.. As I said doesn't phase me too much.. I haven't been forced into leave yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cnts.But then there's no point me accruing it for the extra hours I do anyway, got 18 weeks already owing in annual and long service leave that I never get around to taking. :headbang2: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never saw many people stick with the same employer more then a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest XR09 Guests Posted 20/08/12 03:17 AM Share Posted 20/08/12 03:17 AM I ran Palmers on Hastings street for fifteen years. They went bust with my long service, and never paid any super. Hospitality sucks big ones for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about super though..Still gotta wait weeks and weeks for it though.. So if you live week to week it's not an ideal situation to work for someone who might go bust.

One of our competitors (Rugby Club) went arse-up only recently and left behind allot of debt; employee entitlements, creditors, suckers paying for their wedding in advance and then finding out 48 hours beforehand that the front doors have been chained-up and nobody will answer their calls etc.A few big name restaurants gone or going too. Fickle bloody industry to be in at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
