Eleven Billion

I HATE how those who go through U of Akl genuinely think that they are superior.

I used to be like that. Sometimes I still feel a bit angry.

But then I think back to the fact that I have been tutoring AoU students including masters, in engineering, WAY before I even graduated from my own BE @ AUT.....

So they can't be too bright
But then again I have heard that many Harvard grads expect life to be like a textbook.....

so its the age old saying, don't judge the paper - judge the person.

[avgas]

No fucking way man, have you heard of the drop bears they have over there

I have 5 graduate engineer mates who are either looking for or have got jobs in the last 2 years, none went to aussie, so they can't be recruiting with the aggression their drop bears have

I went there, came back as soon as I could.

Fucking horrible people to work for.
Why do you think the aussies recruit so heavily - they treat staff so bad they have to import more.

Fucking horrible employers.

30 years ago I was told I wouldn't make a Vinyl Layer as long as my arse pointed to the ground.

Those new pants must have really worked for you then.
Presentation is everything.

You're from AUT? How is it then that you can string a sentence together?

So far, everyone on here with a student loan is paying it back...........

Seems to be what I read too.... I was paying mine back last time between studies and will do so after this lot, it's not hard...

Ok so thats seven then...
Now if the 85,000 overseas dwellers that are not on here, can find in the hearts (or wallets) to do the right thing and kick start some sort of repayment, maybe that would shame those still living here to do the same, once the news got out that is.

Did they say 85,000 defaulters who are based overseas, or did they say that there are 85,000 SL policy holders overseas who are paying their back?

[Brian d marge]

Sooo.

A large group of people are bleating on about how terrible the Student Loans are ( the broken record )

The government ( at the time and now ) are saying , How good the loans are and how terrible the bad students are ( Acc?? have a similar sound)

Im not sure which is the best word to use at the moment , Naive or selfish,

Next time you buy Milk , or pay acc ,,,please don't complain YOU MADE THIS MESS

usually with spaces in between the words.
don't they teach you anything technical at Unitec?

[SPman]

I went there, came back as soon as I could.

Fucking horrible people to work for.

Fucking horrible employers.

Generally - yes!

My boss is the exception - probably that, and the fact he's outnumbered 9 to 1 by foreigners.
The most laid-back office in the world, I reckon......

An aside is I have overpaid my loan,started repaying when job started(was honest with ird code) loan hadn't gone from studylink to ird at the time.
Anyhoo working out I must have paid said loan off,I changed my tax code,as according to ird my loan was paid in full mid January(by my reckoning).Gotta love the system which takes ya dough immediately from your pay,sits in bank accruing interest(on our behalf)and supposed to credit my account on 20th month following,at the mo I'm in credit and checked ird site today(21st) and March payments not appearing yet,so I can't get refund for a while yet,but the pricks have my money since Jan without telling me "hey cancel your student tax code to normal or similar".
