How muxh will you be getting once you finish forth year?
I'm kind of at my ceiling price for a few years now... Won't be getting any more $$$ until I get about 3 years more experience...

I get anywwhere between $14 an hr up to $25 for Sundays working as an assistant nurse in a nursing home, coz I dont have the Cert 3 in aged care.

But i am working on Ekka holiday, this wednesday and I think thats even higher than Sunday rates wooooot!

When I did agency work, it started from like $23an hr up to like $45 for a public hiliday...plus you get night duty allowance of 13%.

Next year when I am a registered nurse, I should be starting off with $44K, ending up with $53K a year, and I will be able to salary sacrifice woo

I'm 21 and working at coles as a checkout chick, casual, what's my pay rate? It seems something dodgy is going on.

My ordinary pay rate is $20.02740, shouldn't my Sunday rate be 1.5 times that, at $30.0411? Instead I'm getting $28.27215, am I getting ripped off?

yes...it should be like your calculation but in reality it aint....i work at kmart therefore the pay system we have is almost the same as urs...i asked a manager and he said to me that the reason why u get less than the proper 1.5 time rate is the fact that they dont calculate the full 20% loading you get as a casual when it comes to penalty rates...ask your boss how come you dont get the full rate but as far as i kno thats the reason why.....
