I think I remember you saying you worked at Woolies after spotting one of my payslips in a post your setup thread :p

Hooray for the fresh food people of macrumors :D

you dont? i didnt know that, but people who get tips here can make up to $120 a day for just tips. well it all depends where you work and all that.

nope we sure dont. our average pay is higher then americans though of course.

$120 a day! wow. but true it would depend where you work/how good you are/whether you have boobs or not lol.

i earn a flat rate of ~$20Aus. not that great. $27 an hour on sundays though (Y)

and no ive never had a tip in my life.

BAHAHAHAHAHA! im a dude man. "check-out chick" is the colloquial term given to people that work on cash registers (over here in aus anyway) - mainly because chicks do it (not being sexist, thats just how it is).

its alright pay i guess. once i get my computer business up and running im hoping to earn ALOT more then $20 an hour haha

oh ok i was thinking something else.. thanks

I didn't realise "checkout chick" was an Australian term. Learn something new every day.

Anyway here's my setup:
MacBook Pro 2.4GHz, 250GB HDD, 2GB RAM (original unibody)
iMac 2GHz, 250GB HDD, 1.5GB RAM (wired KB and MM)
iPhone 3G 8GB
iPod Mini 4GB
iPod Shuffle 1GB
Time Capsule 1TB
HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One Print/Scan/Fax/Copy
Sony DSLR a300 w 18-70mm and 75-300m

Sorry about the terrible photo. I don't have my good camera with me (because it's in the picture) so my Pentax Optio E30 point'n'shoot will have to do for this.

My Mini sits in its dock doing nothing. I don't think I've used it in over a year. Poor thing. I should be treating :apple: products better than that :D

I got it down to take this photo and thought it had died but just needed a reset.

It was my first iPod (first Apple product I think) so I have to keep it!
