Can you swim in the hawkesbury or will you get worms?

Yep. More likely to get slashed to pieces by the oysters on the rocks than worms.

Also Brooklyn area has some friendly bitebois, usually Bullsharks. So don't strap fish to yourself while swimming.

The Banter is better in AusGBS
The current and the bullsharks are definitely enough to deter me from swimming there, having taken a houseboat out several times around Brooklyn, I've seen hammerheads, bullsharks, plenty of turtles, massive shovelnose, poo poo tonnes of jellyfish.

But the most dangerous are the insane locals who speed around the bay with no lights on.

I'm going into an unfair dismissal hearing tomorrow and based on the respondents submission (that they deliberately left until 5 minutes before cut off so I would not have plenty of time to prepare) I am extremely out of my depth so uh anyone got any advice?

Do they look kindly on self representing ppl with a decent reason for submitting? Or am I basically hosed without a union delegate?

Sorry I've only seen this now but I was involved in something similar last year. My understanding is that as long as it's clear to the judge that one party is in the wrong as per Fair Work laws it shouldn't make any difference whether you self represented or not. Good luck mate

You shouldnt need representation. That said, if at all possible I'd try to get a union delegate or one of their legal officers to help you because they're going to be way more familiar with the law and the process.

What's the deal with main roads in Victoria that are 2 marked lanes at light, then after 10 meters past the lights they're not lane marked, it's super wide, speed limit is 60. Some people treat it like it's one lane others want to treat it like two and pass me because I'm only doing 64. Are these 2 lanes or 1? I didn't know how to begin googling.

This blokes a deadset clown if he thinks us Aussies don't have any exports

quote:


Aussies have hit out at a US comedy superstar, whose recent Netflix promotion claims Australians “do nothing” and are responsible for “zero exports”.

The clip promoting American comedian Shane Gillis’ newly released stand-up special Beautiful Dogs was posted to the @Netflixisajoke social media channels – the official accounts for the comedy arm of Netflix.

In the short excerpt from the special, the 35-year-old details why he likes Australia.

“Australia’s good, Australia might be number two, that’s a good country dude,” he says.

“It’s just a whole country doing nothing. That’s what I like about them. They’re just down there – zero exports, creating nothing.

“The only export I’ve seen out of Australia is just that YouTube video of that guy punching that kangaroo in the face.”

Proud Aussies in the comments sections took offence at the backhanded compliment.

Wi-Fi, Cervical cancer vaccines, inflatable escape slides for aeroplanes, ultrasound scans, electric drills, cochlear implants, pacemakers, blackboxes,” one wrote.

Another said, “Umm, uranium, coal, meat, wool, gas, gold, wheat, copper, iron ore, alcohol, aluminium, crude petroleum. No, we don’t export anything.”

“All America exports is obesity, lies and pedophiles,” quipped another.

Another took aim at Gillis’ “number two” ranking of Australia behind the States.

They wrote: “Pretty bold from someone who lives in a country without free ambulance usage, free hospital coverage, four weeks of sick leave, and, of course, the fact that we can send out children to school without fearing that they will be mass-murdered. So thankful to be “second place” to that hole of a country.”

I know it's a couple of days past now, but hopefully on experience it's not too late:

[2nd edit] I had some broad-based advice here that didn't really help so much as the below would.

You know what, gently caress it - PM me with your mobile and I'll give you a call over the weekend to see where you're at and what might still be achievable.

[edit] To clarify, I didn't look at the thread for the last couple of days so I didn't see your post when it happened but despite the misgivings of some around here I am actually a union lawyer and I can hopefully give a bit of guidance.

Daughter's shower screen spontaneously shattered at 2:30 this morning. So of course she rang me worried that property management would never believe she hadn't done anything to cause it.

Five minutes on Google told me that it's a known issue and that it frequently happens between midnight and 3am.
