I'm a contractor mechanic to a large stevedoring company and they have just hired an ai integration manager.

Rumours around the water cooler is no one likes her because she's getting in the way of everything.

It has me concerned because if they start laying off workforce there office staff i might not be their preferred contractor anymore haha

Yeah 45kma over the limit is the harshest with 1000 dollar fine and 6 points, however there is a law driving at a dangerous speed which will land you in court with your car impounded and probably lose license straight away.

For instance we used to have open speed limits where I live in the Northern Territory so going 200kms wasn't really a worry on the remote highways where nothing is around.

Then the southerners started moving up and brought our speed limits to 130, but if your caught doing 175kms in the Middle of now where "safely" you get the fine.

However if you're doing 100kms in a school zone (40kms an hour) straight to jail

In Australia we have points 12 i believe. Each offence is worth a fine and so many points.

When you're out of points you can't drive anymore

Huh uk and America racing to the bottom it seems.

I can't wait until our government in Australia enters the race. It's not far off given the social media ban for under 16s. They will want id from everyone to prove otherwise I'm sure.

I still feel like I'm 21 now, but my body hurts from yearsbof being a mechanic and lifting weights and an old injury. I started my company when I was 30 that was 10 months ago so still early days but I felt like I had the experience necessary for it by then.

In 6 months I'll be 32 and I don't really reflect on it at all I had friends who freaked out about it. Getting old etc while still single but I've been married almost 5 years and life couldn't be better

At 22 I thought I had it all figured out.

Now coming up on 32 I look back and think geeze what a dumb arse I was at times.

I'm sure when I'm 42 I'll think I was dumb now, but a lot had maturing happened for me during my 20s. I would hold off until 30s at least

That's the other issue, kids will find ways around it they always have when it comes to restrictions.
