Something isn't adding up.

As a full time RN she'd be on 80-90k
Being a single mum she'd get a govt payment of some kind?
She's only been paying $300 a week and has no savings ?

You read my mind. On Agency rates - RN's can make $100 an hour. RN pay rates are good, especially when overtime or double shifts come into it as working extra hours is easy to get in Nursing. I always recommend Assistant Nursing for students as it offers more flexibility of shifts and hours - better than working the cliche Waitering, Bar Work, etc.

Child support payments? Has anyone mentioned this income stream yet?

Nurses make a LOT of money thanks to shift and other allowances. That landlord should have been charging $600/week for at least the past year.

The fact that she was able to enjoy such a low rate is ridiculous. Especially given her occupation and the rates of pay associated with it. In fact she should have money stashed away for a new car or a holiday at $300 rent/week for a HOUSE. I have no sympathy whatsoever for her.

Not all Nurses have shift work or overtime availability.

What sort of arsehole attacks a nurse who is a single mum, and then makes up lies about her receiving Centerlink payments?

Answer: pretentious arseholes who hang around North Bondi toilet blocks.

The same people who specialise in doubling the rent as a xmas present, 85% of the right.

RN work is one of the best 'travelling' jobs on the planet.
There is no shortage of work anywhere, let alone places to work, like in Australia.
RN's have the extra bonus of being able to do extra hours with penalty rates, if they choose to 'cash in'.
Like I said, RN's filling in as Agency workers can make up to $100 per hour (probably more now, since I saw the payslips 10 years ago).

As you can see, thanks to the Unions and Strikes - Nurses get paid pretty well. Money in their 'pockets', more than in improving the System and getting better results.

How she couldn't save 'a lot', by paying a measly $300 per week, is beyond me?

Sounds like a money-whinger.
Just like those Farmers, who - after getting good rains for months, still cry 'drought'. Roll Eyes

So blame the Landlord for that?

A $300/wk rent increase, over doubling her rent, in a housing crisis so she and her son have a matter of days until homelessness?

Mercenary landlord ... tick.

I've been homeless in ways you can't imagine.
My fault and also my 'choice'.
It is what it is and I never claimed Victimhood once.
I've also been given first choice in Rentals because I have a good reputation of leaving the places looking better than they were when I moved in.
There were many times I enjoyed sleeping out under the stars and saving heaps not paying rent at all.

Maybe blame the father of her kid for not paying 'attention' anymore, rather than the Landlord.

That means the lass was probably on some social security support and probably in receipt of rental assistance. With a kid and being a single mother her odds were good for that.

So let's not quibble here - that would still not be the same as a full-time income - but having a holiday? Not too bad....
