Airstream Driver posted:My work forces everyone to take 3 weeks leave over Christmas so I've got 7 days annual left for the rest of the year. I used to work for a mob who did this. Depending on how the public holidays lined up you sometimes had to burn 12 days of leave. But it was ok because they gave you one free day and if you did a certain amount of overtime you could get an extra 10 days of leave.

Megillah Gorilla posted:When I worked retail 30 years ago, and I confirmed this today with a friend who still does, we were always taught to never try to detain a shoplifter. Not to try to touch them or lock the door. It’s probably still the same and if you vault the gate and run for the exit they won’t bother stopping you, it’ll be part of an effort to make theft seem harder and deter it that way

Jezza of OZPOS posted:Anyone got any recommendations for electric whipper snippers? Something with a rudimentary hedging bit would be nice but ultimately I just need something to replace my 2 stroke job that is falling apart and can barely even hold a cord, I can always borrow a Hedger when necessary if it means saving a hundred bucks. Battery life isn't super relevant, I need it for twenty minutes a week tops but something that uses thicker cord would be nice, like more than 1.5 at least cause I have some gnarly weeds around the place I need to hack down once every month or so The entry level Ryobi one is a bit gutless but it does share a battery with a bunch of other Ryobi tools which is handy. It cuts most stuff but it definitely struggles with woody weeds like nightshade. The 36V version is probably better but you pay a shitload more for it.

Jestery posted:If deep heat gets on your bits, vasoline soothes the burn I went to uni with a guy who, along with his gf at the time decided that the warmth of deep heat would make sex feel better. It ended up with her shovelling ice cream in her vagina for half an hour until the burning subsided

Nah, it wouldn't even need a big turn. Just enough to change the angle so you're reversing into that lane off to the left. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Gromit posted:Is there a secret trick to up your 2-minute noodle game? Like, adding extra cheese or egg or something? And keeping it lazy and cheap, of course - I'm not suggesting a good option is to slip a lobster under it. Frying an egg and shredding it over the noodles is good, doing that with a chicken thigh is even better. Throw some frozen Asian veggies into the water at the same time you start cooking the noodles

bee posted:Was looking at this ABC article about how much money I'll apparently need in retirement and it looks like I'm way, way behind where I need to be. Hooray for leaving the workforce to have a kid I guess Chuck whatever you do have into the high growth option, you'll probably catch up. Also if you own your own house in retirement you can get by on gently caress all super, the minimum drawdown plus the age pension ends up being pretty decent when you have limited outgoings. Renters are hosed though, you'd be better off using your super to buy a small unit as soon as you can access it rather than paying rent.

bee posted:^^ it's this hey Yeah don't bother paying off your HECS imo I'd invest it either in super or a portfolio outside of super depending on how soon you think you might need the money. You pay less tax on earnings in super so it grows faster but you can't access it until you're old af. Outside of super you pay tax on earnings at your marginal rate but in an emergency you can sell some down to get some cash.

Jabor posted:it's way more achievable to live in some suburb out in the middle of nowhere when you're retired and living that far out doesn't mean a two hour daily commute The only real downside to moving a long way out when you hit retirement is the lack of services people tend to need a lot more as they get old and more prone to medical issues.

Pocket Billiards posted:If we had our time again we would have paid off HECS sooner. Money tied up in investments isn't bad, but a debt with repayments that goes up with your income sucks when you are busting your arse working and dying for better cash flow. If I had my time over I'd have done a trade.

Laserface posted:so glad my school made everyone attend a big assembly in yr10 to say that leaving school to do a trade was financial suicide and you will never earn more than 50k a year (in 2000s money) if you become a tradie. I lost count of the number of tax returns I did for tradies on 6 figgies, while I wondered why I bothered racking up the HECS on a masters. It's not all trades but if you do a fitter & turner apprenticeship and grab a few additional tickets (confined spaces, working at heights, high voltage etc) you'll always be in high demand.

Whoforthenwhat posted:Have used ublock and Firefox for years, thought that was on the hit list when Google did their 'adblockers hurt our billions of profit dollars'. Or did they end up losing that? I don't think they 'lost', I think the plan all along was to spend a few months hassling adblock users into either paying for premium or watching ads. Beyond that it would turn into an arms race between Google's devs and open source adblockers where a bunch of people are basically donating their time; at some point the money they're putting into defeating adblockers isn't going to result in any new subscribers so they might as well focus on something else.

Funky See Funky Do posted:Is ABP poo poo? I've used it for years on chrome and the only ads I ever see are here. There was about a week it blocked the youtube ads but the time still played out, otherwise no issues ever. I think ABP lets through certain ads if the advertiser pays them, so you get rid of some of the more obnoxious stuff but you'll still get some.
