In my contract I have a clause that says "[...] in case that employee leaves before 12 months period, the employer [...]". It'll say that employer shall reclaim my sign on bonus.



My question is, having 1 month termination notice, what's the earliest time I can give notice to avoid this deduction? May I give this notice in the 11th month thus working total 12 months or do I have to work full 12 months before giving notice (thus essentially working 13 months)?



I'm working in Australia

Yes, you may.

            One-line joke

            A one-liner is a joke that is delivered in a single line. A good one-liner is said to be pithy - concise and meaningful. [1] Comedians and actors use this comedic method as part of their act, e.g. Jimmy Carr, Tommy Cooper, Rodney Dangerfield, Norm Macdonald, Ken Dodd, Stewart Francis, Zach Galifianakis, Mitch Hedberg, Anthony Jeselnik, Milton Jones, Shappi Khorsandi, Jay London, Mark Linn-Baker, Demetri Martin, Groucho Marx, Dan Mintz, Emo Philips, Tim Vine, Steven Wright and Henny Youngman and Arnold Schwarzenegger. [ citation needed ] Many fictional characters are also known to deliver one-liners, including James Bond, who usually includes pithy and laconic quips after disposing of a villain.

"Venison's dear, isn't it?" (Jimmy Carr) "An escala...
