MOST of the UAP candidates are Palmer's employees is my guess. I've been told that one of them was paid to relocate to WA from QLD to be a candidate. I'd assume there is a blend of nuffies and employees Also some Chemist Warehouse office workers beat up two SALT community protesters outside their offices yesterday as a victory lap after forming a human shield for trucks to break a picket line JBP fucked around with this message at 23:43 on Mar 13, 2019 |

Never buy anything from Chemist Warehouse they treat women at work like poo poo and pay $7-8 below the industry standard

I wouldn't buy from them, but my brain medicine is $6 from them and $20 from other pharmacies near me so There's no such thing as ethical consumption.

im alan jones posted:when youre an environmental party being outflanked by the most right wing labor state branch then yes you are worthless I know here on these forums we love our hyperbole but decades of environmental credentials when nobody else gave a poo poo is worth something. So because some ALP branch has proposed an environmental policy you like better, the Federal Greens that has fought tirelessly over a wide range of environmental issues for a long time is worthless? That's stupidity.

I don't understand why Queensland Greens have always struggled. Is the branch system to blame? I mean Maiwar fell but I can't imagine it staying Green for very long and South Brisbane? There is no point knocking out Trad because she is the main anti Adani voice in the government. Why aren't they bagging rural seats like they do in NSW off the Nats?

If only there was some kind of elected body of people that could wield power over businesses and ensure their practices were ethical and that pharmaceuticals remained affordable to people on low incomes. We could all pay a certain amount to this body, adjusted for our income so that nobody would be unfairly burdened. Oh well I guess that could never exist that's a stupid idea

I've found a local pharmacy near my work that pretends to be a chemist warehouse and their pricing is almost on par. Not your amcals or whatever, an independent. So there are some around, but depends where you live. There's also ones like UFS which are a not for profit pharmacy and healthcare provider, but only Victoria.

I know quiet a few small business owners and they do put a lot of hours compared to a standard 9-5er, that's nothing new or controversial, however like the muffin break lady they all go crazy expecting others to do the same for them. I've tried to explain to some of them that complained about staff not putting in the same kind of effort they do, that they will never ever find someone as dedicated as they are without splitting ownership. They get this whole job creator ego thing as if it's a great benefit they can gift jobs to people. hambeet fucked around with this message at 00:17 on Mar 14, 2019 |

Serious answer: it's because they pay people 25% more, generally don't use many labour hire casuals and don't have the business scale of warehouse. The government should do more to enforce medicines pricing (even though it could be way, way worse for sure) The sexual assault at warehouse is what bothers me most. The two owners are pigs

Here’s an inspiring news story about how a couple saved for a house deposit by living in a shack with no electricity or running water! http://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-03-14/couple-went-without-water-electricity-to-save-home-deposit/10897324 I’d understand if it was a domain article, but how does an ABC journalist write this and not think “wait, what the gently caress”.

Zenithe posted:I know this has been asked in the thread a million times before, but I'm actually getting NBN in tyool 2019. Sorry for the late reply but no matter who you go with, the most important things I can pass on from my NBN headache are : * When NBNCO schedule an appointment, insist that it is an AM appointment only. * If they miss an appointment, go straight to the TIO. The TIO reported 150,000 missed appointments in 2018 and are now tracking these. Make it the ISP's problem, and not yours to chase them up. * Order it as a new line, and make sure you keep the existing service in parallel. Yes, this costs a new line connection charge, but it protects you from stuff-ups. For me with iiNet : FTTC trial deployment in the PM's own electorate. Strange that. - Lodged order 21/December - Order got lost, was told in January tech would be there 13/Feb as order was lodged 15/Jan. - Yelled. Got an escalation and an expedited appointment. - Tech was rescheduled to 31/Jan afternoon appointment. Tech never turned up. Tech visit rescheduled to 13/March - Yelled. Got nowhere. - Opened a TIO complaint : Missed appointment. TIO sent iiNet a complaint and a bill. - Appointment rescheduled 8am Saturday 09/Feb - Tech turned up at 12:30pm. Helped tech check fibres in the pit, every fibre was dead with no light from the exchange. (It's handy having a cabling license, NBN guys all run solo now and he was happy for the help especially since I had my work tools with me) - Service came active 13/Feb as a 97/38 - Service died 05:00 14/Feb - Asked what was going on - Appointment arranged to have tech visit 03/May - Rang the guy handling the TIO complaint, apparently this is a "Core Network Shortfall" - Tech realised the delay on the TIO complaint was going to be 3 months between scheduled visit and result of service, and he now has the headache of chasing it up, while I sit back and wonder if the complaint will escalate to Level 3 due to 20 business days and issue unresolved. (Level 1 = $32, Level 2 = $300, Level 3 = $530, Level 4 = $2400) They called me yesterday happy that a tech was scheduled for 5pm to 9pm on April the 25th. I laughed and said "There is no way in hell that a tech will turn up on the evening of ANZAC day". I know it will be missed and I've passed through Fury into the calm Zen of "This is someone else's problem and although I've been a customer for over a decade, as of right now I've cost them more then they'll ever get from me". Meanwhile, I know I'll get another reschedule to some date in July, and I'll escalate with the TIO again. If I hadn't have ordered a new line, I'd now be just passing one month with no service.
