yes, been doing so for 3 years, not going to stop now.

and yes i am still claiming my concession, as it is called a "student concession" and being a full time student who only gets $120 a week to basically cover travel expenses and save up for insurance etc. pretty sure i deserve it.

I'm working, but this is the first time I've applied for a concession whilst having a job. :S

I hope they give it to me. I don't earn enough to pay full fare.

gosh if i was denied travel concession on the basis of my employment, id simply quit since >50% of my weekly wage would be spent on train tickets.

what would punishment be if we got caught? $1000 fine?
thats fine by me, since its extremely unlikely to happen and by getting concession i save $1000 a year on train tickets anyway

How would they know though, especially if you already have your concession before you work?

I've applied at the local Tavern and Dan Murphy's Liquor store up the road - also have an application going at Kmart too, just for the lols to see if they ever get back to me. Just waiting for word back from the Tavern now.

UNSW offers jobs for that? Wow, that's a nice thing to do, but also very easy.
