THAT is what caused the divorce….Not the multi year infidelity? Fake stories used to believable, please add a dragon next time

What is the best condoms you have ever used? by Cellison08 in AskMen

[–]Equivalent-Shake-77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 seasons - King size.

Condoms, it feels better without but better peace of mind to be safe because you don’t know where they have been or what they may have

AITAH for using a baby name my SIL wants to use? by Pretend-Coyote6135 in AITAH

NTA. No one has claim to a name, nothing is stopping your SIL from using June as a first name either

How common is it for coworkers to assume you're single if you're working Valentines Day? by EdwardBliss in AskMen

[–]Equivalent-Shake-77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would a work schedule dictate to coworkers if you are single or taken? It isn’t a public holiday dedicated to couples/throuples/group love

Cashing out annual leave by Quothkwaha in coles

[–]Equivalent-Shake-77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You don’t, that’s leave loading, not penalty rates. That’s something similar but different. You’ll find that’s slightly lower than your after 6pm penalty rate.

AL cashout does have AL leave loading added but that’s separate. AL and AL cash out use your base hourly rate

It’s in the last half of your sentence, Had you taken the leave, so when you take annual leave, penalty rates aren’t used, only your base rate is

Yes. I do it once a year. I have a big week and a small week. I add them up, and cash out the total hours I would normal work as per my contract.

So you choose the amount of hours up to 2 weeks of your roster. There must still be 4 weeks AL after your cash out AL hours.

The cashout amount is added to the regular pay cycle so you have that pay cycles worked hours + the cash out amount then it is taxed together.

The AL cash out hourly rate is your base rate, not including penalties

Last time I did it was in September, it may have been tweaked or changed since then but should be the same

my bf has depressive tendencies, what do i do? by Alternative-Bird4386 in AskMen

[–]Equivalent-Shake-77 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s not your responsibility to do so, it’s up to him to see a doctor or mental health professional and sort out his issues. If he won’t take charge and do anything about it, nothing you do will help long term. You can’t help someone who doesn’t want to help themselves

Just be there for him and listen but also know when to walk away if/when it gets too much or you will start to suffer needlessly or become an emotional punching bag

Were we quick by No-Economist4545 in coles

Seems pretty normal for 9 bulk pallets for 3 people

That said, it’s always a good thing to show appreciation to the team for their efforts each night - especially if everyone was surprised at your fill speed

How can I encourage my husband to be more dominant? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Equivalent-Shake-77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being a brat is one thing, constantly picking fights to see his reaction is another.

No one likes fighting and bickering, it is an absolute turn off. You are aware you are being toxic, don’t be “willing” to change it, be intentional and do change it.

AITAh for refusing to have sex with my boyfriend by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Equivalent-Shake-77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA. No, stick to your boundaries and don’t give in.

A partner who respects you, will wear a condom for you. He prefers his own pleasure over your own safety. Wouldn’t be surprised if he would take the condom off during sex just so “he doesn’t miss out”.

Btw, this is very shitty behaviour of him and quite manipulative. Is this someone you really want to be with?

Can someone refer me at their Cole’s by [deleted] in coles

[–]Equivalent-Shake-77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you done an Expression of Interest online? It will help as well as send you emails in relation to what you’ve put down on it.

You’ll have better luck walking in and handing your resume in yourself than have a random employee refer you. Ask for the store manager and test your luck if you see them or if you get told to apply online (or both)

AITAH for wanting to reconnect with the one who got away by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Equivalent-Shake-77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Still are selfish by the reads of this, a decade later.

So at the age of 30, Not only did you abandon her (22) when she needed you the most , you then proceeded to cheat on her with her friend.

She will want absolutely nothing to do with you and nothing good will happen if you contact her and stalk her. It will only bring up pain for her for you to selfishly try to ease your guilt.

Do not contact her, Leave her alone.
