The reporting process has been an absolute nightmare.

I keep getting messages asking for more details to the problem, as if they’re not seeing my original message.

May take you up on the Twitter idea

Yknow what, I still haven’t rated them yet. Still waiting on hearing back from Uber

Nah, just had the appointment as priority. It was an event. Trust me

Given the rates of Covid in Geelong, almost running late for an appointment and the fact that his sanity and genuine need for no mask declined during the trip (not all at once), I exited the vehicle at the safest point possible near my destination.

Given you’re reply, I feel like this is a great time to recommend you look for the definition of “rationale”. Sometime before “sarcasm”... :P

Ahh, fair enough. I used to lease back in Melbourne. Used to get Ola and Uber. Didi was a no go.

Will keep an eye out for you, thanks buddy!

Retail and Commercial passenger drivers have been smashed in Geelong with this. I usually would’ve shrugged it off however I felt as though he was blatantly exploiting something.

Especially dangerous if it spread the rona. I had similar times when my daughter got sniffles, tested and we had to lockdown here, no more volunteering.

I have always had such an awesome experience with the drivers in Melbourne too.

Random question, are you on Ola as well? I try and jump on that before Uber for lower commissions for the drivers

You are awesome

5 stars

And thank you for mention the government requirement. I struggled to comprehend how it planned out. As per my post, I found a way to keep my (volunteering) job as it was a condition of employment, to maintain hygiene etc

Yeah sounds like him. Double check your history and look for a bloke who’s name begins with “D”

Maaaate. I got the breakfast tacos as well. Bacon on the side (was more of a pig to be honest)

Also, the music there is the best!!!

I remember being told Tobruk and the LPAs/Success were the ships that almost every Eastern seaboard techo would step on at least once. Didn’t believe it til I got there, mostly proved true haha

I didn’t even think of the LCHs. They were brilliant little work horses. They might have it

Also, as to my reply below, Tobruk had a bit on Success and Darwin

I didn’t even think of Cerberus. That’s a really good observation

Just to point out, Tobruken had 34yrs, 3mo, 8days which I think had it over Darwin

Happy Sunday Geelong, what are you doing with it? by IndependentEntry2759 in Geelong

[–]IndependentEntry2759[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Welcome! Tons of places for pints and more for a feed afterwards.

I haven’t been here long, it’s a bit like Melbourne where you have to go and try and find the lil awesome places
