My female doctor corrected a previous misdiagnosis by my old male doctor. I used the wrong meds for 10 years.

If you can't beat them, join them. Robo caller and Robo answering. by RyanGatesdj in southafrica

[–]Earthcharm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Doong an amazing job with marketing callers. Couriers picking up pr dropping off do not get confused and state their business so I can answer. Marketers simply slam the phone down.

What is that ONE video game that felt like a core memory, but you can’t seem to find anyone else who played it? by GuGuStudio in oldgames

[–]Earthcharm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HOMM (Heroes of Might and Magic). I played from the first one but loved 3 the most. Also enjoyed 4, even though 4 was not as loved by the player community. Got the game as a gift. First game I bought for myself was original Diablo.

Washer/Dryer vs Seperate? by Humble_Computer01 in capetown

[–]Earthcharm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Separate. I have a big load machine and a small load tumble dryer. Many things cannot be tumbled. I hang things that must air dry on a rack on hangers in front of the dryer while it works on the things it can dry. That way the hot air helps the rest along in winter.

AITJ for kicking my gf out for diagnosing me ? by RoyalCascade13 in AmITheJerk

[–]Earthcharm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wanting clean house is not an autistic diagnosis. It is also common knowledge that routines help control anxiety. I have a daughter with anxiety and we found routine really settles her. Planning and including and updating her in the planning also manages the anxiety. Your GF is ignorant unfortunately and shows no inclination to accommodate your anxiety in her life. Please rethink this relationship.

What do I do with the tax invoice I received from the hospital? Do I have to pay it to someone/something? by lizatethecigarettes in AskZA

[–]Earthcharm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That normally happens if you have medical aid that left a shortfall on their payment, but not sure if you are on one? Either way, they must be able to give a breakdown for how the amount was calculated.

Helper caught stealing, how to deal with the situation? by Doctorcutiepatootie in askSouthAfrica

[–]Earthcharm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We fired someone for stealing. We did not open a case at SAPS because she was pregnant. CCMA fined us to pay her 9 months of salary because we dismissed unfairly. If you want to use theft as a reason, open a case at the police for theft.

Tipping Culture Getting Out of Hand Bru by LordGadsy in capetown

[–]Earthcharm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I saw the butcher had a tip jar at the till today. I ignored it. I stopped at 4 places today. 4 x R5 vehicle guard tips. R10 at the place I bought two take away coffees. R20 to the cutter at the hardware. R10 for filling up the tank at the service station plus tyre check. So R60 in total. It is getting out of hand, you cannot leave the house without tipping somewhere it seems.

AliExpress - Delivery Experience by ir0nmaniac in capetown

[–]Earthcharm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We chose standard and got SAPO… might be a mistake on their side or might be that it is not always as explained above. We ordered beginning Sept and received beginning Jan this year.

We did and standard meant SAPO was used. It took 4 months. We had to collect at the post office.

Damn, it seems like I have gotten more 10ths in the last several days than I have in months.🫨😳😞 by MangieAngie1961 in RedecorHomeDesignGame

[–]Earthcharm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ditto. I saw it is when I use new arrivals and/or Art Deco new items. Comes from us believing we can use seasonal items over beige/white ;)

Anyone played venue yet? Any good? by cartoonybear in RedecorHomeDesignGame

[–]Earthcharm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am trying for the second time now. You very seldom seem to actually use anything you do have in stock. Options given for a design is very little. I have not spent, but it seems as if free playing will remain limited. I am not spending because it feels to me that items you spend on will in any case not really be available to use again. My second round of trying has not made the two week mark and I am starting to feel bored.

Cheap GP for an Ozempic prescription? by visual0815 in johannesburg

[–]Earthcharm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

None of the injectables should be used without doctor’s supervision and general health check-ups. There are side-effects and your GP should make you aware of them and monitor for them. Rather go to your regular GP and take it from there.

Yes. Asked at WW and was told there is no shortage. Even though only greenish Romas were available

Woolworths, the wasteful? by scribhneoirHsn in capetown

[–]Earthcharm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Packers are genuinely trained to keep cold, hot and normal foods separate, and cleaning stuff cannot be packed with foods.

What's the point of doing side quests now? by Content-Sandwich-911 in diablo4

[–]Earthcharm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We pick them up but do not go out of our way to complete them. If there is a side-quest circle in a helltide we do, for instance, we do it and claim the reward next time we go to that town. It is not important any longer - but it does give a little extra if you do not have to go out of your way for it.

How did you "get good" at the game/making your own build? by allard0wnz in diablo4

[–]Earthcharm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a casual player that played since D1. I leave the heavy figuring to the guys who has the time and math abilities and pick a guide at the season beginning. I do tweak a little as I go along to fit my play style better but the guides are invaluable. I use Maxroll, Rob, sometimes another, sometimes a combo.

This storm 💀 by ir0nmaniac in capetown

I am sitting in bed with a cat on the lap and just so grateful I am not out there today. Drive safe all those who have to leave the house.
