Hospo/Retail workplaces to avoid applying to?

Hi there,

I've just moved to Bendigo and looking for a job. I've always worked in hospo and retail so I'm just wanting to know the places to avoid applying to - if you could list reasons that would be great as some things I can deal with if the hours and pay are worth it.

Just Got My White Card How to Land an Entry-Level Job in Bendigo?

Hey everyone, I just got my White Card and I’m keen to get into the construction industry, but I’m 28 with little to no experience. I’m not sure of the best way to approach getting my first job.

Would love to hear from anyone who’s been in a similar situation or knows what works in Bendigo. Should I just cold-call companies, go through labour hire, or try something else? Any advice would be appreciated!

Thinking of Moving to Bendigo – Which Areas to Avoid?

Looking to make the move to Bendigo and considering these three suburbs - Long Gully/California Gully/Eaglehawks. Just curious—where’s most of the commission housing located in these areas? Trying to get a better feel for the neighbourhoods. Any streets or pockets that are particularly nice, and any areas best to avoid? Appreciate any local insights!

Secret Base of Operations?

There’s a place on Patrick St, just off McIvor Road that’s marked ‘Secret Base of Operations’. Driving past it and the place is surrounded by barbed wire and fences. Anyone know anything about it? Whose base is it?

Concerned About Someone I Lost Contact With in Bendigo, Australia

Hi everyone,

There’s someone in Bendigo, Victoria, that I lost contact with some time ago, and for personal reasons, I feel it’s important to try and reconnect. I won’t go into too many details about them here for privacy, but they played a meaningful role in my life, and it’s hard not knowing if they’re okay. Although they are on social media, they’ve been disconnected for a while. The person had a lot of personal issues, including depression and other challenges, which might have caused them to disconnect. I’m concerned about their well-being, and it would be very important for me to find this person.

I want to be clear: I’m not here to invade anyone’s privacy or make anyone uncomfortable. If anyone has experience with locating someone respectfully or knows safe and ethical ways to approach this, I’d be incredibly grateful for your guidance. I’m happy to share more details privately with anyone willing to help.

og post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bendigo/s/QGS3IMkHMz

a few days ago, me and some friends had been threatened by the girl i was postinf about in the og post. i called the police about her to put in ghe statement and mentioned what everyone has told me as well as the people she previously has attacked in the past. all the police suggested was for me and some friends to get some personalised intervention orders and only then will they be able to do something legally. she will go after anyone and everyone who looks alternative or queer, and she also travels in a large group so please be careful and please keep yourselves safe.

edit: a good friend of mine has gotten jumped by this girl. please be safe.

Any place in Bendigo to buy red envelopes for Chinese New Year ang bao?

I don't normally give out money for the New Year, but need one this year. I'm sure anything would be fine but I think it would be fun to do it properly.

Alt Rock project from Bendigo

Hey all - I’m the founder of an alt rock project named ‘Through The Night’ from right here in Bendigo.

soundcloud.com/through-the-night-band

I’ve never really been the best at describing how my music sounds (nor do I like to compare myself to other artists), but I like to think it sounds something like Doves mixed with Smashing Pumpkins with a bit of Jeff Buckley here and there.

I don’t have Spotify at the moment but I do have Soundcloud and YouTube so feel free to check it out there!

I personally prefer the sound of the latest tracks I’ve released, most recently ‘Only Sleep Cures Fatigue?’ which is my EP I released in August last year.

Thanks so much in advance :)

Local crisis medical/mental health services.

If anyone can direct me towards any services in either of these areas, it would be greatly appreciated.

I have just been through quite a traumatic experience, and while I had remained pretty stoic for my kid throughout, I am utterly shellshocked. Basically beyond looking after my child right now I am barely functional. I can get it done for him, but everything else is just overwhelming. Even something that seems as simple as making a phone call or downloading an app seems exhausting.

Originally I was waiting for this sort feeling to ease to managable enough to deal with like I've experienced in the past, but this is sticking. If anybody knows of where I could find some face to face support, I would be endebted. Talking is one of the few things I can bear right now.

Do not support or work at Soulfood Fusion House

Pls if you don't like the exploitation of visa holders, exploitation of young workers, and toxic workplace environment then pls do not support this business. I have a friend who personally worked here in soulfood fusion house and restaurant and she told me that she was underpaid and the business doesn't pay their workers on time. If the employees asks the owner about the pay, the owners get mad making excuses how they don't have enough funds and how they have a child to look after. One of the workers who worked since Day 1 did not get paid for a whole month. The owner makes up an excuse saying that there was a problem with the accountant even though they didn't have an accountant. They expect their employees to care for the restaurant but they don't care for their employees.

I hope that your next visit will let you know that you're supporting a business who abuses and have no ethical considerations for its employees

Moved to Eaglehawk, what should I know.

Hello, I have just recently moved into a little flat in Eaglehawk and I’m wondering if there is any advice I should know of? I’m aware that Eaglehawk is a bit sketchy from hearing other people say that. Is there areas to avoid? Any advice for finding fellow basketball enthusiasts? Should I invest in a car lock for my car? I’d appreciate any advice!
