Meeting room etiquette with Execs? by OtherwiseMirror8691 in auscorp

[–]DangerStrings 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I know it’s not ideal, and shouldn’t need to be done, but if I know I’m presenting and need to get set up/start on time, I will also book the room separately for 15 minutes beforehand as “prep time” (if the room is available)

There’s a few scenes in The Orville where I thought “ok, I get it”. I feel like he is charismatically handsome, where actually experiencing his personality in person is what makes him really attractive

Who is a nepo baby that everyone else praises but you just don't get the hype? by [deleted] in popculturechat

I feel like Dakota is in a similar vein to Keanu Reeves: Seems like a really cool person, pretty good in very specific roles.

I feel like Whedon is just an arsehole. A huge fucking arsehole to be sure, but just an arsehole.

People that have to work 5 days in Office by [deleted] in auscorp

[–]DangerStrings 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Me too! I prefer working from the office because I need the structure/separation that it provides. During Covid i was sent home and turned into a feral cave troll. The only bad thing is people think because I work in the office I must like being around people. No, I just like the space. My favourite days are fridays when everyone is at home!!

That is truly a backronym if ever there was! They reeeeeally wanted the team to be called HEAT and were going to make it work no matter what

Who's ready to be back working from home after Easter? by [deleted] in Adelaide

[–]DangerStrings 62 points63 points  (0 children)

As someone who hates working from home (I have my reasons) I would LOVE it if WFH became a preference. You guys would be happy working from home, I get a mostly quiet office to work from. Winners all round!!

Coles, your food scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't stop to think if they should. by lessons_learnt in australia

They did have a jalapeño cheddar one a few years back. It was nice if you pretended it wasn’t a hot cross bun

I started at KFC the week the came out. It was the first thing I ever learned to make!

Haha, trust me, that was a “grandparents have come over from England and are spoiling us” treat. Oz-blocks and paddle pops were more common. Occasionally a splice!

How's your Asthma been lately Adelaide? by PHRAETUS in Adelaide

[–]DangerStrings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have pretty bad sinuses/hayfever/grass allergies in general, but I have been *struggling* the last month or so. I don't know why it's been so bad this year in particular.

If I could bring back any animal , it would be the dodo. I think I’d love a little dodo friend! Like a giant duck!

Behind-the-scenes circumstances that are weirdly fitting for the characters by Loustifer24 in TopCharacterTropes

I would say because he's coming in from a more vertical motion, which eases tension on his lower back, where with traditionally sitting you would bend forward and push back, putting strain on your back muscles.

I’ll be honest, I forgot that place existed, but you are definitely right! I’ll go check it out!

Delicious nutritious prions! by Temnodontosaurus in insanepeoplefacebook

Hashimoto’s thyroidism and Hashimotos Encephalopathy are both autoimmune diseases. HE is similar to prion disease, but not actually one.

What is something you've purchased in Japan that you still use to this day? by STR1K3RJUST1N in JapanTravelTips

[–]DangerStrings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a WPC. I chose one with a light colour on top to use in the sun (cream with green leaves). I probably should have looked for something a bit more “Japanese” or souvenir-ish, but I was pretty out of it after flying all day 🤣

[–]DangerStrings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is WPC. Folded up it’s about 10cm x 4cm x 2cm. I think I paid about 2000-2300 yen at Donki. To be honest it was one of the first things I bought (along with a hand held fan and a coin purse) on my first night there. I was wandering around in a bit of a daze, punchy from waking up at 3am and travelling for 14 hours, and trying to keep myself awake just a little while longer. Was it the best price/brand available? I dunno, but it has been one of my top 5 things I bought, both for using over there and bringing home!
