Current wait time at Fiona Stanley ED: 7 hours 45 minutes.

ps. We need a resource tax.

Edit: a lot of assumptions made in the comments here. There are a lot of sick and elderly people in this waiting lounge who deserve a better standard of care than this.
Stay safe all 💜

I’m looking for advice regarding a serious tyre-fitting incident involving mycar Harrisdale in Western Australia.

On 17 June 2026, I had all four tyres replaced, balanced and a wheel alignment completed at this branch.

Approximately one month later, I discovered that one wheel had four of its five wheel bolts missing. Only the locking wheel bolt remained. I had unknowingly been driving the vehicle normally during that period, including commuting to work and carrying my partner and colleagues.

I returned the vehicle to mycar Harrisdale. The branch installed four replacement wheel bolts, but I was not provided with a new invoice, job sheet, inspection report or written record of the work performed.

During the discussion, Gary told me that because I returned approximately one month later, there was no warranty, and that the branch had already “absorbed” the cost of the replacement bolts.

I found that response extremely concerning. My complaint was not about tyre wear or the 30-day tyre satisfaction guarantee. It concerned four wheel bolts being found missing following a service in which all four wheels had been removed and refitted.

I am now seeking an independent inspection of the affected wheel, bolt seats, hub threads, wheel bearing and wheel/hub run-out. I am also considering lodging a formal complaint with mycar Head Office and WA Consumer Protection.

Has anyone experienced something similar with mycar or another Australian tyre shop? Should the business cover the independent inspection and any resulting repairs?

I will update the post if mycar Head Office provides a formal response.

I know that missing animals aren’t typically posted here but I’m hoping that if lots of people see her she’s more likely to be caught. She went missing from ferndale around 2/2:30pm on tuesdsy July 21st from around kinlock avenue. She won’t respond to her name but she may respond to hello and land on your head if you are patient. She is a rescue.

Burner account so if no response right away please keep trying but I will be monitoring this post as much as I can.

EDIT: she was caught and taken to a wildlife centre thank you everyones help and advice

pretty much as the title said. Had a bad domestic situation involving police and voilence. I am currently staying on my friends couch but today is the third day and I already feel as though I'm overstepping. I'm just asking if anyone knows somewhere safe to park your car at night to sleep in? Im a young female so im scared of break ins/crime etc.

I've just moved back from another country so have no sick leave or other family members i can call on right now. Ive looked at homeless shelters but it seems like theyre already full to the brim.

Bonus points of anyone has any places I can shower, I am working currently so could afford a day pass if needed.

Thanks in advance y'all - never, ever thought i'd be the person typing this post or going through this. Life really is brutal and does not discriminate.

Westport unveils preferred design for $4.6bn Fremantle replacement port - Splash247

https://splash247.com/westport-unveils-preferred-design-for-4-6bn-fremantle-replacement-port/

That concept picture really looks like someone went nuts in Cities: Skyline and put down as many cargo ports as possible.

I was just standing at Cockburn Central train station, where there is high-rise construction going on nearby. I was admiring the highly skilled operators of two cranes as they moved stuff around.

It led me to wonder: how does one become a crane operator? How do they move those giant monstrosities into and out of position? What do you do if you’re up there in the box and you need to pee? How do you navigate a windy day or difficult conditions?

If anyone can share any knowledge, I’d be grateful.

Hey, 

I've seen The Odyssey once (in IMAX) and apart from recommending ear plugs, really enjoyed it. My wife is now keen to see it again in the 4DX screen at Innaloo. Has anyone been?
Curious as to weather the seats and action add's to the experience, or weather its just a gimmick and feels like sitting in a fairground rollercoaster getting bashed about...

I started with VM and VSS late last year and I’ve found it hard to find someone that can help with both. Has anyone seen a neurologist that has helped with either or both? Thank you 🙏🏻

I have had another price increase to my NBN/internet effective from next month to $91. Is this an average price for Perth?

I am with Belong and have had no issues (so far) with the service and I'm probably going on 10 years, if not more.

Hey all, I recently came into the possession of a mountain bike that someone kindly gave to me. I was wondering if anyone else on here mountain bikes and would be keen to go riding together?

I've done kalamunda a few times with a loan bike and enjoyed it but am a total beginner when it comes to owning my own bike.

I'm 34, will be relocating to Perth in about 3 months, Cabinet Maker, considering plumbing. Would they hire someone at this age to plum things even as a TA or a labour? Am I being pessimistic?

I'm 19 years old and currently working part time as an all rounder at a cafe which is quite demanding but for 21.82/hr is this decent or are there better opportunities? I don't know what to feel about quitting since I've only started for a while and I don't know if this is just a bad coincidence or I'm the problem since my previous job also was really bad.

Hey guys, we have a leaky shower head and we've reported it to the agent like 4 weeks ago and they've completely ignored it. The water bill will be beyond our normal $30 usage this time. Is there a way we can escalate this matter so that they can send in a plumber and fix it? I spoke to a plumber mate of mine and he reckons it's an expensive job , is that why they're ignore it?

Hi everyone! Any experience working at Fiona Stanley? Just curious about the culture and vibes or the place from a staff perspective! Thanks!

hey brains trust, please help. I have a nine year old who is really struggling at his local public school. adhd and medicated, high anxiety, possibly ASD but not (yet) diagnosed. average academics. having frequent meltdowns at school and we are really worried about him. hes in therapy.

does anyone have any suggestions for a supportive primary school with good neuro affirming practices? we are inner city Perth way. we don’t really want to change schools but we have tried everything and he is miserable so want to have some alternatives lined up.

Just putting this out there. Does anyone happen to know of any places hiring casual lived experience peer support workers in suicidality and suicide bereavement, particularly in the northern suburbs?

I have lived experience in suicide bereavement (I lost my husband to suicide) and subsequently experienced my own battle with suicidal ideations. I am now recovered (from my own mental health struggles) and I am passionate about helping others.

I’m currently studying a Cert IV in Peer Work online and my Masters in Suicidology but I’d really love to start working casually ASAP.

Thank you.

Has anyone had this before? Food rocks up at the door, I go out and grab it and it's half eaten and not what I ordered. I understand orders stuffing up but half eaten is disgusting. The weird this is it's a local pizza shop so they don't even sell that rice abomination. When I checked the camera when it was dropped off, even the girl delivering it looked at it weird before putting it down. So rank! The pizza place are cool people so I have no idea where the stuff up is from

TLDR: how do I professionally let our PM know I’d like to renew the lease for another year.

Hi all. I was looking for some advice regarding the renewal of the lease. This is my first time renting through an agency (I rented privately for 4yrs) when we rented privately we would just email 1-2 months prior and ask if the landlord was still happy to renew the lease another year. We were on extremely good terms with that landlord, we had maybe 3 inspections in that time etc.

Now I am renting through an agency, when we signed onto the lease they said that 2yrs would be great but standardly the lease will say one year, and then renew it for another year if all parties are happy. It expires late October. When should I be emailing to express that we would still like to stay another year? We got a new PM recently who is not as nice as our previous lady, and we are going on a trip right before it renews so I want some peace of mind that we won’t get back from our trip to find out we have 2 weeks to move.
