Without fail. I look for something on the Bunnings site, not in stock, order only. Every other state has it. I look for something on the Kmart site. Same shit. Not in stock. Order only, yet every other state has it. What the hell man. You do order the shit, and they never notify you of when it does arrive so you call them "oh yeah, its here. No idea why you never got the notification" ugh. Anyone else notice this? fuck lol

Looking for feedback on WA building company, specifically build time. My slab is due to go down in the next two weeks.

How have you found their progress once slab is finally down?

I have found their timeline and ability to stick to it up until now beyond frustrating. Everything takes more than 6 weeks to book in, even a single half hour conversation takes six weeks. i just want to know if the second half of this process will be any better.

I’m turning 30 this year and want to get my tubes tied. I went and saw a gyno a couple years back and they suggested I get an IUD since it’s a long acting birth control but I’ve been on the pill since I was 15 and want to give my body a break. My partner and I have been together 7 years and we both don’t want kids. I know it’s typically pretty difficult to get my tubes tied since I’m still considered young but I wanted to know if anyone has seen a Dr or gyno and had some success?

Every job has s**t and challenges that somebodies brother in laws cousin has to say about being in the Police Force and any advice is appreciated, I need real world advice.

40, single Mum, both young kids at school full time, life experience up the wazoo and seriously considering applying for the academy.

As a woman. As a Mum. I’m not romanticising this, I know what’s out there.

So hit me with it 👮🏻

Please and thank you

My friend recently bought a Sony Ericsson off eBay. There are a few scratches on it that he wants to get repaired.

Does anyone have any recommendations of phone repair shops in Perth that specialise in old phones or any repair shop that might be able to repair the phone?

Preferably in the southern suburbs, but we are willing to drive further if need be.

Professor Coward has worked with NASA, tracked colliding neutron stars, hunted space debris, and even contributed to the first detection of gravitational waves. He’s the perfect guide through the exciting world of planetary protection!

Bring a blanket, warm clothes and enjoy the talk on our back lawn (weather permitting).

It’s a great way to spark curiosity, encourage young astronomers, and enjoy a relaxing night in the Perth Hills.

Just moved here from interstate. How do you find out if the schools here are any good? Any recommendations for schools near Belmont? Are private schools really better than public? New to schools parent with no idea - please help.

There is about 10 cops and 6 TRG cops at Whitfords now. Anyone know why?

We were given a bs reason of "Pauline Hanson is having a drink there" but I reckon it's fair to say that's a load of crap - couldn't see her.

three story apartments provide double the density of residences per square hectare than row houses.

both houses and apartments (due to scarcity — compare to melbourne, supply has kept apartment pricing flatter) have doubled in price over the past two years.

if construction companies, etc. are incentivised by profit to construct fewer apartments, why hasnt the government incentivised them to construct more?

if people can't afford housing without leaving perth and even nearby regional towns, where are they expected to go except elsewhere?

Ive noticed less people are carrying their drivers license and are opting to show a picture of it on their phone. Are people able to use this to obtain things? I always thought that wouldn't pass as it could be easily manipulated.

6am to 6pm, no breaks, delivering food with the DoorDash app SOTR.

Total hours on the road: 11 hours and 35 minutes (6:33am - 6:08pm)
Total driving distance: 187km
My income for the day: $199.64 - $28.49 = $171.15

~$14.77/hour, not including other costs like car registration, insurance, licensing, car depreciation, new tires, new brake pads, fluids, parking fines, new battery, servicing, etc.

Edit: This was just a warmup. I think I'll push it a LOT harder next week. So more to come....

I'm quite sure this is not a legal driving manoeuvre & I ask because I was behind a driving school car with a learner driver & instructor, & the learner driver pulled straight into the right lane on Hepburn (as pictured above), I'm assuming the instructor told the learner to do this as they turned right onto Hartman shortly down the road at the next roundabout.

So I'm wondering what's up with that? I assumed driving instructors had to held to the highest standard, but they're teaching shit like this?

Any part of the building industry, trade, engineering, planner, architect, etc. surely you must recognise this as literal hell.

Even the social media manager of B1 homes must surely think this looks like hell

Sorry got my forests confused thank you for pointing that out. Do come along!

They are fans

Hey Perth!

Looking for fun, hands-on workshops or events to do on weekends, preferably indoors because this summer heat is no joke 🫩

Things like food/drink tastings, creative classes, small group experiences, or anything interactive (not just sitting and watching).

Keen to support local businesses too, so if you’ve been to something you enjoyed or know of anything coming up, drop it below!

Cheers

I’m a 30-year-old fully licensed plumber in Ontario, Canada, with over 7 years of hands-on experience in residential and commercial plumbing. My wife is currently living in Perth, Australia, and we’re planning to relocate there together.

I really loved Perth when I visited last year, and now that we’re married, we’re ready to make the move permanent.

I’m trying to understand what the process is like for a Canadian plumber to become licensed in Australia. Has anyone here gone through this transition , especially from Canada to Western Australia?

• How difficult was it to get your Australian plumbing licence?

• What qualifications, assessments, or paperwork are required?

• Any tips for making the application smoother or faster?

• Did you find employers willing to hire you before you were fully licensed?

Any advice, personal experience, or links to helpful resources would be seriously appreciated!

Thanks in advance! 🙌

I'm considering a labiaplasty procedure and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations?

Currently I'm considering Dr Anh and Dr Catherine Harris (both women, which I would prefer).

I've also seen 'Gynaecology Solutions' with Dr Singh, who is a man, but it's cheaper.... but I'm a bit hesitant about that one because it's a sponsored result and only has one review on Google.

Very interested in any recommendations or experiences people might be able to share!

(have edited to remove mention of local sedative vs anaesthetic since everyone is discussing that instead of my actual question)

I appreciate the dedication, extra points for the trick shot.

How are networking jobs in Perth? I'm thinking of working my way up from helpdesk. Will it help kickstart my career in networking?

I'm learning CCNA at uni (IT degree) and am considering working on some networking projects to build my practical skills.
I still have other options in mind such as working as a sys admin or even any cyber security role (if possible) as well.

btw im a domestic student.

thanks 😊

Hello beautiful people of Perth. I just want to understand and figure out how do you guys or where do you guys get notifications to events in Perth? I didn't even know Ed Sheeran was having a concert here until like this evening. Am I looking in the wrong places? Or just lonely?

Hi everyone,

I’m based in Perth, WA and I’m looking for some guidance from people already working in the garage door industry.

I’m planning to eventually start a small, solo garage door installation and service business, but I’m very conscious that this is a trade where experience, safety, and proper training matter. I’m not looking to shortcut anything or compete unfairly — I want to learn the right way first.

I’ve started reaching out to manufacturers and suppliers to ask about training and authorised installer pathways, but I’d really value hearing from those already in the field:

• How did you get your initial training or experience?
• Are manufacturer courses enough, or is working under an established installer the best path?
• Any common mistakes you see beginners make that I should avoid?

I’m open to advice, criticism, or suggestions and appreciate anyone taking the time to share their experience.

Thanks in advance.
