If you're good at your job and fit in well you might be surprised how suddenly accommodating everyone becomes
In my experience that has a limited lifespan.
Like any bad relationship, everyone promises to get better, but old habits die hard. Things improve then spiral back down, and there is only so far a good team can keep you afloat.
@Paekakboyz I say have an honest chat with someone in your leadership stream that you trust, and see how understanding they are. Sometimes these things go under the radar until the bandaid is ripped off.

Well, a couple of months have gone by and my work situation has improved a bit. Still updating my JD but given they'll get it benchmarked once it's finalised that's working in my favour
Work-life balance is still pretty out of whack. Had 2 weeks leave lined up for July then one of my team had a family emergency and is heading home to see family. I'll still manage some leave but not what I'd hoped for.
We did get the latest set of plans back from our architect and the reno is looking good. Bank lending is sorted also which is great. So we are pretty excited with having things one step closer to starting. Anyone got a stash of gib? asking for a friend

@Paekakboyz yep! Halfway through doing bathroom renos ourselves and ordered twice as much as needed.
Took the second bedroom's wardrobe for the bathroom, this fucken house fighting us every inch of the way. Who's ever heard of a metal double sided architrave? Half a day of grinding and 17 cutting discs just to remove the bedroom wall side...

We are doing Renos on the place we recently bought and got lucky with the gib, the owner of the company that did the work for us said he's got two jobs lined up after us but has no gib left to do them, so didn't know what he was going to do. Felt for him, it's not an easy job to begin with, but battling for gib just to make ends meat would be super stressful for him.

I need that at my place. I’m pretty much the shittest handyman I know. I do have builder and electrician mates who sometimes accept payment in beer, I should probably find a plumber to befriend as well.

Still do most of the home/repair stuff myself except major building work. Re-wired a house or two in my time but don't do electrical stuff anymore as I cant be arsed crawling around running wires. Have a love/hate relationship with plumbing.
But I really enjoy decorating - get into a zen-like state doing that. There's something about washing your brushes & stuff out when you done and admiring your work.
