I didn't feel the quake. But I just want to chuck a hissy fit about it being two years in a row that EOFY has coincided with pay day (or the day after). Pay was supposed to be yesterday, I still haven't been paid and this has been my skintest fortnight. Grrrr. I know they've processed payroll but are the banks/accounting systems that overloaded that payments could be delayed this much?

E: oh well, I have enough to get me a coffee and pie when I get to Up North.

You would think payroll could have scheduled the payment a day earlier so it arrives in people’s account on time?! It’s not like they need to manually process everyone’s pay… hope it gets to you today !!

I don’t think I would ever feel an earthquake at that scale unless it happens when I’m awake😳

Honestly the way this place is run I sometimes wonder if payroll IS manually run. Admin has been an absolute shambles. I'm down to $30 and can't really keep raiding my rent account, I mean I have my savings so I certainly won't be out on the streets but this is very, very frustrating. Deep breath...
