  • The good thing in our team is they send the draft back to people who know the role for review before posting.

  • I have made a point to start and finish on time, along with taking my lunch breaks and regular hourly little stretch-eyesight breaks..

    It's all the time in between that I struggle not to go 100%, burn out, and start making stupid mistakes.

    The last few weeks have been a thorough burn out, and we're only in February.

  • Not sure if you're pulling our legs or really don't know..

    We've had the term "suss c*nt" in Aussie English for decades, and British English isn't that far removed.

  • Yeah, I'm sorry, I had to stop reading when I read that they own not just one but TWO homes. I saw red.

    Meanwhile, I'm relatively terrified that my retirement will be living in a cardboard box under a bridge after suffering from multiple strokes based on family history.

  • I agree with your terminology - updating is for often small incremental software patches.

    Upgrade would be a complete program overhaul, or more commonly in my use of it, a change to a newer, better physical product.

  • Every time I see these ridiculous solutions being proposed, I get so frustrated. My partner and I are trying to do the right thing, saving and not stealing from our future selves - but we're competing against these insane policies that do nothing but drive up the price even further.

    We just met our original goal, but the cost of a home in our regional area has pretty much doubled since we moved back after giving up on Sydney a few years back now, so we're no further ahead.

  • My hands are also tiny and smol, and I'm also clumsy, but I have no issues with my S23 Ultra. 🤷🏼‍♀️

  • Did that.

    Doc was 45 minutes late to work.

    She was a nice lady but that had me fuming.

    I then had to wait two hours for a taxi. I was in tears from anxiety by the time I got home, then had to go back to work.

    Luckily I am WFH so no one could see me crying.

    That was a bad day!

  • As a connoisseur of poh tay toes, they look gross.

  • Yep. Turned down one rental many years ago due to too many flights of stairs and no lift - and being too poor to hire movers.

    I got a good, thankful laugh when I watched the episode a couple of years back.

  • Pivot! PIVOT!

    Sorry, I had to.

  • We draw stock internationally via FedEx, with usually at least one shipment arriving per day.

    If I have a particularly urgent order for my customer, I will of course be tracking the incoming shipment.

    Every. Damn. Time. I visit their website, I get halted in my usual manic pace by their stupid, slow to load pop up. I haven't even been able to figure out how to block it, and usually don't have time when I'm working to figure these things out.

    Our company gives you so much money, FedEx - why do you have to be so difficult to work with as thanks?!

  • That completely stopped working for me a while ago, but Samsung's Reminders app was able to do it well.

    I started using it instead, and the other day, uninstalled the Google Assistant app - the only time I was opening it was by accident, when I'd drift off to sleep holding my phone, and he rudely awoken by the noise it made.

  • My mother was a registered nurse and has her head on fairly straight, but she worked with plenty of nutso people.

    Being a part of the medical field does not automatically make you an expert in all things health related. In fact, it seems to give some of them a false sense of superiority.

  • Get yourself a guy who looks like Aragorn but cooks like Samwise. 😍

    They've both got heart.

  • I gave up on it entirely probably a year or so ago, as I found if anything it was getting worse.

  • We have to deal with them at the moment because we're staying with an elderly relative and her house, her rules - fair - and she is worried about switching providers. If something did go wrong and she lost her number, it would be pretty awful. So we're stuck with Telstra.

    We're on our third modem with them in a little over a year (had to get a decent one, working from home). The absolute shit fight to get it replaced each time only served to reinforce that we are entirely correct on our views of their business. They have made it as tangled a web as Centrelink (another org that we have luckily not had to deal with in some time), and their customer service is basically non existent.

    To their credit, their store staff did their best to help but their hands were so incredibly bound by red tape that there wasn't much to they could do. Also, the credit we were promised after the second go around was never applied to the account. Wasn't worth our time to chase it, because we actually value our time and have wasted enough of it.

    And that's just one consumers experience.

    The stuff they do on a national level is absolutely shameful. They need to be broken up.

  • What didn't they do.

    Or, what have they done that's worthwhile.

    Bunch of parasites.

  • Living with an elderly relative in law, I often wondered if she thought I was watching porn by myself in the bedroom while her grandson/my partner is out in the lounge room watching shows or playing his own vidya games. 😅

  • I'm down, I've got the 411, and you are not going out and getting jiggy with some boy, I don't care how dope his ride is.
