All This Shit is Weird:

The Dalek_Thal Story

Indeed - I'm fine in that regard for that reason. My partner on the other hand...alas, I'm not earning enough to cover us both to the extent I may have to

Thanks mate - looks like sick pay guarantee stopped being available as of 31 May. Centrelink doesn't offer anything, will check out Ask Izzy though

I think I have covid - one of my coworkers came in with it, tested positive that evening, and now I'm fluey.

My partner is casual.

What the fuck do we do here? Are we just expected to take the financial hit in a COL crisis?

Just a reminder that during covid, it was possible to eat well and healthily for a week for $75, with some snacks and non-essentials thrown in, too.

How long until we stop taking it up the arse?

Looks like Dragon Age Dread Wolf's release date is going to be announced soon. Such a shame. I'm going to get gastro on it's release date and be knocked out for a week or so.

Also, what do people recommend I do post being charged by a methhead. I've got to work but I'm still in a state of fear

Methhead wandering down Flinders Street charging at people and yelling gibberish. Stay safe out there everyone

Aww, thanks @Nath!

Ah yes, happy birthday tenant, here's a rent increase. We compared your northern suburbs 1 bedroom apartment to inner eastern suburbs two bedroom apartments and decided we deserve more money.

FUCK Real Estate Agents. I will be disputing this, or at the very least forcing the issue and making them give me air con if they want the increase. I've been in this flat three years and the damn thing is practically unlivable.

Day ruined. Fuck you Real Estate Agent.

I'm very very glad that this sudden and weird internet outage happened this close to five. Shitty that I'm WFH when it happened though.

Anyone else's network gone down? I'm with exetel in the northern suburbs on a HFC network.

Lesson learned: Persona 3 has teeth. I had hoped based on Persona 4 and 5 it'd be fine, but...nope.

Any recommendations for a game to play to cleanse my palate post whatever the fuck that ending was?

The thing is, businesses have a vested interest against wage growth, as wage growth is directly and totally incompatible with annual record profits - wage growth would eat into that.

Put simply, it's a conflict of interest. If people with conflicts of interest ceased to be allowed to participate in conversations wherein they have that conflict, the world would be a better place.

Haha, I appreciate that mate, actually made my day a little bit

To briefly bitch:

What the fuck is the point of paying for delivery if it's going to end up at a storage facility that's only open during office hours.

Fuck off Team Global Express and JB Hi-Fi. Not worth the $15 extra I paid for delivery. Was already having a really shite day.

Downside is that would take me out for a couple days - realistically I'd rather hold on to as many sick days as possible just in case (or more accurately, for when seasonal depression gets me)

Alas, it went out at midday. According to JB, if it isn't received in person, it goes to the depot for pickup.

Going to chat with boss about it tomorrow methinks.

Argh, drat, that's a good point, I've been having the beginnings of a sore throat today.

Ah crap. Ordered something through JB for delivery. Both myself and the missus are working next two days (and will be out of the house). JB didn't give the courier authority to leave. We don't drive.

How fucked are we?

That would be nice.
