    Being an INPUTS (Bachelor of Business) student

    And the point of this thread is....? Don't really know how you needed to know 4 unit for accounting A and finance? I did general maths and managed just fine - the hardest math in accounting is basic addition. And WTF "95% of business students do 3 unit". Most would have done general or 2 unit...

    When do lecture slides get uploaded

    Depends on the subject/lecturer. Some post all of them before semester begins, some a few days before each lecture, some after the lecture. It's only week 1 however. Just take down your own notes if the slides aren't available before or take a laptop to class.

    kfc or mcdonalds?

    Yes and no. When it's busier, you'll always be occupied and it makes your shift feel like its really quick. Having to stand around with nothing to do is really boring and makes time move 10 times slower. But for some reason, customers are a lot worse when its busy especially when you have to...

    How old are you? I can give you figures for a few but I'm not sure how you are

    kfc or mcdonalds?

    Pay will pretty much be the same. Go to both interviews and observe what the managers/co-workers are like and how busy the stores get and such. There is nothing worse than having to work under a shit manager or with shit coworkers

    Easter Show 2013 Thread

    I think its favourably looked upon but I'm not entirely sure. In recent years they would get HEAPS of applications because it's a good opportunity for students to get some quick cash over the holidays but now it's during classes so I don't know if the competition is going to be as fierce this year.

    Does this happen everywhere or is this just me?

    Asking people to leave early when quiet is common, especially in fast food where managers try to save as many cents possible. Although the clocking on situation sounds a little bit suss, your manager sounds like a super tight ass with their money

    help me please

    Don't get down because you can't find anything. I've just been rostered out in my retail job and i'm having just as much trouble finding another job as much as you. Even with 3 years total experience in retail/hospitality, you would think that I wouldn't get rejected from woolworths and aldi in...
