I like it and I'd happily move back (could actually afford a house there) but there's no work for me there. Maybe this period of enforced working from home could be a proof of concept though.

I commute in 3 days a week (at least I did) and work from home for 2. Since I work right in the CBD, it's not too bad at all. If you work anywhere else that isn't on the train line though it would suck a lot.

I got stung three times by euro wasps today while trying to build a sandpit for the kids. I'm still honestly kind of blown away by how much it hurt.

Move into the new house and the last fucker who lived here took the NBN HFC modem with them even though it had a big ole label saying "PROPERTY OF THE NBN". Now I have to wait for NBN tech and pray they get here for NSW goes into total lockdown. Dont make me go through lockdown without the ability to stream TV 24/7. Free to air is sooooo bad.

i got bitten by some kind of grasshopper when I was a kid and it drew a heap of blood to the point where that was when I learned about applying pressure to wounds from that and i've always had what I thought was an irrational fear of them since then but looking at that I feel like maybe I am entirely rational and it was probably her that did it

Prepared the large raised bed for sowing brassicas and carrots. I don't usually grow either but I'm losing my mind being confined to home. I even put the mini greenhouses together to protect them from pests.

grasshoppers & crickets are cute as heck and i loved runnin around catching em as a kid. i always had atleast 1 in an enclosure until i was a teenager and got my blue tongue lizard who used crickets as a primary food source and i had to start buying em in bulk instead of catching some here or there as pets.

I love my family but is anyone else having issues today ; people wanting to see you or come over to visit or Catch up??! Its fairly hard to avoid the news or all the warnings around the place. I know the government hasnt been crystal clear but a lot of these work in healthcare and definitely would be aware of most of the rules or strong advisories about Not seeing anyone you dont live with as much as you can possibly achieve.. Or they are just bored or cannot handle being at home? My mum in law thinks we are discriminating against her cause shes a doctor; and we know shes had infected patients at her clinic as well. Doesnt make sense but so far they are at least taking NO or listening to us.

stirlo posted:I love my family but is anyone else having issues today ; people wanting to see you or come over to visit or Catch up??! It’s fairly hard to avoid the news or all the warnings around the place. My neighbour is a nurse. I think it's a combination of boredom and not wanting to cancel planned events. I also think that our messaging leaves too much up to individual interpretation and we need to follow the UK and be much more specific (even though some people in the UK are finding creative ways to break the rules).

His brain has broke. What's the issue here? I work for an online retailer handling packages all day and they sent me home because I have mild asthma. Also used to be a postie in Canada and they warned us that the packages are covered in horrible poo poo at the best of times.

We were going to host a party tonight but have moved it into an online group video chat. My coworkers and I had lunch together over the internet and it was actually super nice and fun. We all got phones with cameras these days and I'd highly recommend doing sinilar. In other news we were going for a cycle today and the river walk down in front of Newstead (the moneyed area) is fucken packed with a full open air market going on. I'm moving all my cycles to the local bike tracks from now on as the more affluent areas of the city are absolutely not taking this seriously. My local farmers market was pretty empty and well spaced out, I want to continue going there to keep on supporting the little guys. Woolies and Coles can gently caress right off, earning money hand over fist and not paying danger pay and the like to their most vulnerable workers. My downstairs neighbour is the manager of the local Aldi and they get bonuses based on sales. They doubled this last month and he all he saw was an extra $100.

Concerning amount of people only began changing their lifestyle or stopped travelling around for work or fun when they were prevented from doing so by multiple governments and the threat of illness/worse... She had planned to get married. In ITALY... not such a weird idea since her fiancs family is all over there ; but it took her quite a while to decide and I dont even want to ask her how his side is doing.. :/

Coronavirus cases are heavily weighted towards affluent areas in Sydney and Melbourne, too. In the UK, people have been driving to nice locations to do their one period of allowed exercise per day. The same will happen here if we don't think about what loopholes people will use to get around any new restrictions. As far as the backpackers who are ignoring the rules to party at places like Byron go, deport them immediately and let them get sick in their own countries.
