get at it, get away sentences

I kept the stuff at high level so that my kids can't get at it.

I don't know how to get away from this boring job. I can't easily get away from it because I have agreed to work for one year by signing on agreement document.

My boss is always getting at me for small reasons. I think he is a kind of nut.

I can't understand what you are getting at. Could you repeat once again?

Please correct my sentences.

Hi guys,

Would you repeat that again? Some people would argue that 'again' is redundant with 'repeat'.
