If I don’t take it, worst case is I’ll get $50k a year in holiday pay + super+ jobkeeper/seeker until I’m stood up- at worst 4 years. I think a total of ~$85/year...4x85=340
best case is I’m stood in a year, retrained in a RIN and work out my last 3 years at normal salary.
why would I take VR? What am I missing?
Because by your own maths you are likely to break even (after 4 years of possible unsureness and gloom if you did stick around), and possibly also because it might also help save someone's job at the start of their QF career?
