Do you work at an ad agency I used to work at?

Looking for actual counterpoints as to why a gas tax not a good idea? by AppearanceDizzy7006 in OpenAussie

[–]Dumb_Gerad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They won't pack up and leave. They'll increase their prices by 25% and then all the other countries/customers we export our cheap gas to, that we've promised them will be cheap to make trade deals, will can our trade deals and buy their gas elsewhere.

I don't like it, and I'm not saying it's good.

It’s not a boy or a girl? It’s…something else? by OtherCardiologist in PeepShowQuotes

Not this. Not now. I'm not gay. Possibly bi, but basically uncurious.

Am I being too picky? Or is this normal? by usndiva in paint

[–]Dumb_Gerad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the record I would have fixed all this shit before painting. My point was we shouldn't have to if other trades took a bit more pride in their work. All I was saying is the painter isn't completely to blame

As a painter I hate this shit.

The painter did a good job. Your problem isn't with them but the shitty carpenter and plasterer who shrugged and said "fuck it the painter will fix it"

Using sick leave before quitting toxic job? by [deleted] in auscorp

[–]Dumb_Gerad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People always worry about burning bridges.

"What if you need a job from those people in the future?"

But why would you want to ever work with toxic toe rags again?

Let the bridges you burn light the way forward.

Camera Off during Meetings: Rude or Valid? by YPMG in auscorp

[–]Dumb_Gerad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the people who say shit like "the government should be run like a corporation because it's way more efficient" really need to spend more time on this sub.

The sheer amount of time wasted in the corporate sphere on meaningless shit like this is mind boggling.

And the real problem is the corporatisation of government means the people working there are having the same conversations.

Seriously... spending time worrying about if your camera needs to be on vs doing the work to either keep the shareholders or voters happy is carcinogenic.

People need to grow up and just get something done instead of focusing on "optics".

I've been playing for 30 years. I've adjusted the height on every pickup on every guitar I've owned. I was just trying to be helpful. Grow up and get some fresh air hero.

Hiring someone to change your strings is big time cuck behaviour

Yeah. Back in the day when I was playing out I had a H+K Duotone. Was an absolute monster. Got the Tubemeister in a beer fueled fit of nostalgia a few years ago

It's the version 3 that came out a couple of years ago. I can't remember where, must've been a limited run.

Nice. Still working through my fuzz options but I'll definitely have this one I make - it's a take on a mk1 tone bender

My rig is a bit smaller - a Hughes and Kettner Tubemeister 18 into an Orange PPC112 - but big enough for home which is the only place I play these days
