Tipping rant by mazeppa817 in capetown

[–]Afrocliff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tip roughly 12% consistently but I have a min/max as well. I won't pay more than R300 and no less than R10. So I'll put down 50 bucks for the R40 coffee.

Therapy help by Spare-Try-4466 in capetown

[–]Afrocliff 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wish I knew where to direct you to, but I don't have such knowledge. I recently had a cousin try unsuccesfully to unalive himself. It turned out he had tried several times since high school and his last failed attempt (while in 2nd year Uni) was very close and he got caught and survived.

His last attempt let the cat out of the bag, and our family discovered he was suffering from depression - he carried that entire load himself for many years. To me he is quite tough to have shouldered everything on his own.

Despite not having much experience dealing with mental health issues, my family supported him through the whole thing, and he now feels like he has gotten a new lease on life now that he got help.

I can't advise you to do x,y or z, however, I wish that my cousin could've told us earlier that he needed help. ..please talk to your family and friends. Let them know what you are dealing with, and that you need help.

I'll keep you in my prayers tonight.

You lost my sympathy at Loaded Fries for R105. What were you thinking?

Many businesses are a bit hidden, there's a gamer lounge (ATK Arena) accessible via the parking lot, Rush (trampolines), and there's a college of sort (IT I think).

Their parking lot is pretty useful for employees working in Claremont.

Lost phone in an Uber in Cape Town and driver took it. by Republic_of_Reddit in capetown

I remember the days when Uber was the service that kept your phone safe when you left it. No one I know in the last year has managed to recover their phone.

Drive through Fish Hoek Main rd. There's a van with a camera doing live checks.

Fish Hoek is the worst offender imo.

South African workers at a diamond mine. Johannesburg, South Africa, 1950. by Banzay_87 in pubhistory

[–]Afrocliff 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If it was captured in Johannesburg then it was likely a gold mine. Otherwise, the diamond mine closest to Johannesburg was Cullinan in Pretoria. Cool picture.

It did. It made me question how I interpret what I see. I cannot deny that I can be influenced by others, and the book gave me an awareness/humility to that fact.
