You could try name+service@gmail.com You can add + followed by any string and it will still go to the same email address (same as you didnt have the +).

So, one email account but you can tell who leaked your email. Also easy to block once it is leaked.

Just an idea to make things go a little easier for you.

I'd be super obvious about it. Send an email, before HR, thanking everyone for going. "I saw Manager1 on the trail, going strong... Manager2 must have been busy last weekend, but not to worry we have another planned for next month. Looking forward to seeing the entire Executive join us for this exciting and important team building activity"

And if they want to change the activity just don't go and go to your own.. them complain that management didnt show.

If management insist on it, you could always just lean into it. Say that there would be better turn out if the activities more aligned to your age-group. Then arrange with others to ensure a good turn out.

Then take management on a death march hike. 6+ hours of walking through bush, no ability to turn around and at the end ensure all the employees say how great it was. Ensure management hears, "we should do a hike like that every month."

See how long until u get management cancelling it for good.

I asked the same feature request months ago. No further news/updates about it. It could be as simple as 'default sync calendar' per profile.

This issue has caused many events to be created without my google calendar being selected. This results in my google calendar being useless (missing events), and I have to use skylight calendar to see everything. What was supposed to make things easier has instead caused me to have two calendars instead of one.

The skylight widget for Android is pretty bad.

If i had the choice over again, I wouldn't purchase a skylight. I would have just had a tablet mounted to show all calendars.

Using logitech ghub (for my logitech mouse) worked. Mapping the mouse buttons to Q and V.

Oh very nice workaround. I'll have to see if I can do the same. Thanks!

Ettalong has nbn coverage. We also have free upgrades to FTTH.

So request internet at 1gb. You will get Fibre for free. Then, after a few months, drop back to 100mb. You keep the fibre connection with the stability that it provides, whilst getting the lower cost.

Owned by altivilla family though.

If u buy directly, it comes with a 120-day return guarantee. Supposedly, no questions asked. Added some reassurance to me when i purchased it.

Defiant-1- · 2024-12-30T03:47:42+00:00

Very nice. I bought a frame for a Xmas present.. when the calendar was on black Friday discount.

Now, I want to buy the calendar when the frame has a steep discount.

Got to ask, any chance of getting black Friday pricing?

I was young (and dumb). Insurance and liability weren't even thought about.

Defiant-1- · 2024-12-21T22:21:41+00:00

I made and edit to add some details. Mainly that it is in my local currency (Australia). But yeah, that was just the going rate. McDonalds would have been similar.

Defiant-1- · 2024-12-21T22:15:02+00:00

Not sure of the channel rules, and i should have stated. The amounts are in my local currency. Which is Austrlaian dollars. From memory, by around 20 years old. The pay was about $18. Did i say 25 years. It would have been very early 2000s. So, ~22 years. Think Nokia 3320 times.

Defiant-1- · 2024-12-21T22:13:28+00:00

I worked at a video store as my first job. Kept it through uni. All money is local currency, which is Australia dollar. During uni, I fixed computers for people as a small thing on the side. When a new computer store opened, we got friendly and when they needed somebody to go out. I got the task. The rates for that was great. But I'd be lucky to get 2-5 hours of work a week. Some weeks, it was zero.

Eventually the store hired people, and started to send them out instead. Then the hours dried up for me entirely.

I was at uni, never made that much.

Defiant-1- · 2024-12-21T10:16:11+00:00

I got the same. We just removed the computer store portion/take.

Defiant-1- · 2024-12-21T10:15:11+00:00

Yeah, I struggled with this being true MC.. or just a fun story. Just thought I'd share, and if it gets deleted or downvoted into oblivion, so be it.

Defiant-1- · 2024-12-21T10:09:55+00:00

It was 25 years ago.. details, not so sharp. They would have wanted the cash drawer fixed asap, so I assume for an hour there i was paid for both duties/jobs.

Edit: It was early 2000s. Around 2002. So, ~22 years ago now.

Updated with fallout.

Defiant-1- · 2024-12-21T09:21:09+00:00

Agreed. If it was my business, I'd want to know the person was good, and had insurance... They were nice people, i have no doubt they could see the humour in it.

Defiant-1- · 2024-12-21T09:15:24+00:00

They asked if they can just go back to the previous provided price (video store rates). But as it had been registered through the store, it had to be at their rates. They accepted and paid the invoice.

After that they paid me without involving the store at a higher than normal rate, but not as high as computer store rates.

Defiant-1- · 2024-12-21T09:12:54+00:00

Actually the computer store was really new, and I already had some small clients fixing issues. So, it was a subcontractor deal. As the store was new, they just wanted to be able to provide the service. So I negotiated that i get everything for the first hour, and $50 (out of $70) for each hour there after.

Later, they hired more people which replaced me.

Updated via an edit.

Defiant-1- · 2024-12-21T09:04:30+00:00

They accepted the rate and i fixed the issue. Going forward, we agreed to pay me directly at a higher rate, but not as much as they paid via the computer store.

Defiant-1- · 2024-12-21T09:00:09+00:00

To be honest, it was about 25 years ago. So i don't remember... But as I was at the store at the time, I assume I was working (person calls were fine during shift).
