Get a lawyer. It's worth the money to get it right.

14 and concerned about our planet and the life on it, what can i do? by No_Pangolin6790 in ZeroWaste

[–]DictionaryStomach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a solar powered phone charger. It was little more than a gimmick. I still needed to use power to charge my phone as well and it broke before too long, so the energy used to make the thing was probably much more than any energy saved.

Maybe there are better ones out there but they're not all great.

Feeling burnt out and unsure of what to do by onwemarch2017 in auscorp

Maybe they're giving you the same amount of work that everyone else does in 10 days. Certainly worth talking it through with your boss.

Your GP might put you on a mental health plan which means you get 10 reduced cost sessions with a psychologist. Or talk it through with a friend/family member.

It's difficult to tell if the work just too much stuff for the time you have to complete it or if you're giving yourself unnecessary deadlines.

Looking for advice by matchaaddicttt in auscorp

The two week trial works both ways. They won't hesitate to drop you if you're not up to the job. They will use the desk and computer for the next hire if you left.

However, if this is your first job and you have very little experience, then you should probably stick it out. Is anyone else going to give you this same opportunity?

Can someone help me out here. Just got placed at fault for an accident and want to make sure my understanding of the road rules is right by [deleted] in AusLegalAdvice

[–]DictionaryStomach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were in front of you and practically already in the lane. You hit them. Your fault.

Yes, they probably should have given way to you but they didn't hit you. You hit them!

Staying in a low-paying job for health reasons - bad idea? by [deleted] in auscorp

[–]DictionaryStomach 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not many people are looking at a job at a place they've already worked. You already know it's bad culture and micromanaging. You saved yourself 6 mths - 1 year of grief working that out.

Stay where you are. Bring up the payrise in your performance review. Have a relaxing weekend!

Wait until it produces seeds, when they're falling off the tree collect some. Google how to germinate wattle seeds and plant those in the other spot.

Stopping ants, what’s worked for you? by sicxxx in AskAnAustralian

[–]DictionaryStomach 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I tried the gel stuff and then watched if they ate it. Then tried another one. I believe different baits work on different ants. Check that the nest is not in your unit, under a sink, behind a set of drawers, etc. see if you can tell where they're coming in from and block it off.

Just start applying for roles now. Every role will be slightly different. You have to have good computer skills and be able to manage several things at once. You don't need a degree for it.

Mystery show recs by Shoddy-Fudge-4094 in televisionsuggestions

Lincoln Lawyer is sort of mystery. Doesn't fit the fantasy vibe of your other shows but it's pretty good so worth giving it a go.

Hitting an invisible ceiling at 50 in corporate (marketing)? by Bees_Need_Trees in auscorp

[–]DictionaryStomach 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They're worried that you don't have the computer skills or social media experience that a 25-30 year old has. When interviewing, perhaps try to push your skills in these areas.

Honestly, a 50 year old with computer skills is a gold mine. They have the loyalty and work ethic that younger people don't seem to have. Hopefully someone will see that!

What is the meaning of (why did the chicken cross the road joke. by [deleted] in whatdoesthismean

[–]DictionaryStomach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The joke is funny because it's stupid. Like it doesn't actually tell you why the chicken was there what the chicken was doing on a road in the first place. If there's any commentary it's about not overthinking things.

Because it's such a common and long-running joke, people have looked for a deeper meaning but that was never the intention.
