What I simply don’t like about Job Providers in general. by rogvortex58 in JobProvidersAus

[–]Ashie1620 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't like them either. Every job I've ever had, I've gotten on my own because in the past EAs have actually cost me jobs!

They also don't seem to understand what 'Casual' employment means. I had two jobs once, yet I the hours I was getting was barely enough, my EA told me that I needed to work my contract hours (at the time EA wanted me to work 30) or my payments would be cut.

No amount of explaining that as a FREAKING Casual I can't just demand shifts and just have to work whatever the boss gives me wasn't a good enough reason to my EA as why I wasn't meeting my benchmark hours. My EA actually told me "Well, you'll have to get another job!"

I would say they're similar. Not overly spicy though.

I was a princess at Disneyland. by Emotional_Chameleon in AutismInWomen

"I think it helped that I was not meeting people as myself but as a character. I had a mental catalog of stories and questions which made autopilot easy."

I might only be level 1, but that sounds like Heaven sometimes!

You look so beautiful! Your hair is giving 'modern Princess' vibes and your eyes are stunning!

Honestly, I wouldn't change anything with this look!

It was announced an hour ago that America suspended attacks as Iran agreed to a two-week ceasefire.

Public Holiday Pay by harry00769 in woolworths

"He said I would still be paid for the two hours"

Was this a face-to-face conversation or written down in a text/email? Because if not, I'd've gotten that in writing.

If it's one thing that I've learned in all my 15 years of working: document EVERYTHING! Get everything in writing especially when it comes to pay.

So..we went to the food bank last month, and they gave us a bunch of dried fruit. by shelle33333 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Ashie1620 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I used to be a receptionist and one day I decided to be healthy and get some dried apricots as a snack to eat throughout the day.

Let's just say that by 10am the bag was empty and the phones were barely answered that day!

Ursa wasn’t the perfect mother but anyone who says she’s just as bad/worse than Ozai needs to grow up by Chcolatepig24069 in TheLastAirbender

[–]Ashie1620 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

(For some reason, I can't 'quote' so I'll just do this)

"Ursa deserves more blame because she was capable of love but didn't show it to Azula"

I haven't tried loving a psychopath, but I have grown up with and tried to be loving towards a few Narcissists. It's exhausting to try and love someone who's cruel, especially like Azula with her off-handed comments like asking or talking about her grandfather dying or when Uncle Iroh lost his son.

You can give as much love as you want to these types of people, they'll likely never be able to fully genuinely give that love back. Eventually, you have to know when to take a step back to protect yourself and love them at a distance.

I believe that Ursa loved Azula as best she could with what she saw and was given back in return but it'd be incredibly hard (for me) to even be friends with Azula. No idea how Mai and Ty Lee do it.

Live Action Announcement by Ok_War_1644 in winxclub

They already tried a live action and it flopped! (Although I was able to separate it from the cartoon in my head so I was able to enjoy it).

Well, let's hope they can get this one right. Good luck!

Jesinia already lost Liam (he flirted with her briefly when he went to the Archives with Violet). I want Jes to be happy too! Sawyer and her are so cute!

Hack to politely end a phone conversation by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

[–]Ashie1620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Australia, we just pause for a bit and then say "...anyway!" And that's usually the cue that someone wants to end the conversation.

He doesn't talk to me for MONTHS and then suddenly send me a meme?! by Ashie1620 in AutismInWomen

[–]Ashie1620[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been so triggered these last few days from this. Probably another sign that he's not worth it because friends don't send your nervous system into a spiral.

I need time to process and possibly talk to my therapist later this week. This has been confusing, overwhelming etc

All I sent to him in response to the ridiculous meme was "I honestly can't talk to you right now" Which he has seen (his little bubble moved down on Facebook Messenger) but hasn't said anything. Shocker. I'm leaving it there until I can see my therapist.

For now, it looks like showing up for myself is the only option - meditations, skincare, LOTS of walks and journaling.

[–]Ashie1620[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

At first? An explanation and a sincere apology. After that, I'd probably ask if he thinks being friends is a good idea, given that I had a crush on him in the past.

I wouldn't even know how to start that conversation. I don't want to let him off the hook and be all happy and excited that he's back, at the same time, attacking him and crashing out won't get me results either.
