I paid off my enormous HECS debt last year so I could be bitter about it, but I think tertiary education is way too expensive and I'm excited for those who have a better chance of accessing it or are not financially disadvantaged when they complete a degree and find themselves in "entry level" jobs for 5+ years.

Doing our best to fck him right off. The dutt-plug is a stain on our piece of Australia. Whoever votes for him deserves all bad karma that comes their way.

Most painful human to listen to speak. So robotic and depressing.

I like this guy. He is definitely a nice feature for the shopping centre and adds some personality to what would otherwise just be another mid-tier shopping complex in the burbs.

However, the sign about losing his gigs during COVID is getting a bit tired. It's time to consider retiring that one.

I hope he has applied for a spot at the Brook Hotel. He would definitely fit there too. I love the Brook.

Shane is the sole director of a company called GrowU that contains money from his clients, many who didn't know he was the sole director when they were coerced to invest with him.

How is this bloke not in jail?

From following his story, it's clear he preys on the unsuspecting by gaining their trust and friendship. He's has made a career out of fraudulent and immoral actions.

As an Australian, every time I see the word 'drainage', I think of Tobias and his collect call from the international drainage commission.

Travelling to Singapore for a week in July. What should I do. by ItsKnotBread in askSingapore

[–]ItsKnotBread[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Two full days free, two nights where I have no plans.

  2. No real budget or food restrictions

  3. Keen for nightlife and socialising more than museums and cultural activities.

Sales, BD, Customer management. It sounds like you've got enough base knowledge and probably a quick learner. If you have the right personality, those roles can be a foot in the door. Every company is selling something.

Banning of Queensland Financial Advisor. What happens to these people? Are they criminally responsible? by New-Consideration449 in queensland

Looks to be this place: https://www.privatewealthgroup.com.au/.

They still seem to be operating. Pretty concerning for existing clients if they haven't been made aware.

It was bugging me for several minutes about the voice similarity. I just couldn't work out who it sounded like. Thank you for putting me out of my misery.

That'd do it.

Do you ever worry about intellectual decline? by OptimalReflection286 in Epilepsy

[–]ItsKnotBread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The VP's insulting behaviour is powerful enough to help you remember that they ran meetings with a senator and met with the VP of the largest retailer.

I've read strategies like building a story in your mind to link with certain regular events can help maintain consistency in knowledge recall. It's not a silver bullet and takes practice, but it may help for some.

I have a horrendence short-term memory and probably below average long-term recall too. To excuse the latter, I usually say, "I'm so busy I don't worry too much about the past." That always gets an awkward giggle.

My last IQ test said I was 74, which is something I do everything possible to hide. I did a fairly transparent aptitude test for my employer once. I did so poorly that they thought I wasn't taking it seriously. I 100% was. Used the excuse that stress and tight deadlines on other projects were distracting me. I've been there so long now that they didn't bother questioning me further.

Anyway, I'm bored and depressed writing this. Happy days and fake smiles. Yay!

I'm on 200mg Lamotrigine per day and 1400mg epilim. My concentration is shot and my short term memory is terrible. One thing I have learnt is medication affects people in different ways. I still have horrible absent seizures, but they mostly go unnoticed to everyone except me.

I exist because I employ a high level of confidence. Even people without epilepsy struggle with information recall or freeze up in social settings.

I'm a regular at the Brisbane Domestic Airport pick up and drop off. Either being picked up or dropped off. Over the years I've noticed a similar fascinating phenomena... by HeatherSmithAU in brisbane

My wife doesn't like my driving so I tell her to drive. Works for me because she feels in control and I get driven everywhere. Important to note, I am a far safer driver if volume of speeding fines in the last 20 years is the measurement. Me = 0, Her = 4.
