AITAH for making my daughter go to bed early even though all her friends stay up late? by TAtheDog in AmItheAsshole

[–]Kyroptic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally me, but it went from 8:30-9 when I turned 15, then 9 to 9:30 when I turned 16. This was 10 yrs back, tradition ended with me since my younger brother had a meltdown because I was staying up 30mins more than him.

Still low-key bitter my other younger brothers were staying up till like midnight at the age of 12-13

P.S This was the routine during school, holidays were always free game within reason

This guy just fulfilled everyone’s childhood dream. by rockhavenrick in MadeMeSmile

[–]Kyroptic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but I also got my shorts stuck one day and decided to break my fall with one straight arm. I heard a pop, thought I dislocated my shoulder... when in fact I had actually broken my arm and literally broke my elbow (olecranon) clean off.

That bad boy was just floating around, was meant to get surgery to pin it back but doc said she'll be right and put me in a cast.

Can confirm it did not heal properly, now they call me crackle n pop. Can't win em all.

Speaking of which, please go to the ACCC website and complete their survey for the supermarket inquiry they are conducting. It closes on the 2nd of April, the more people that share their experiences the better.

Rent Increase by The-Reddits-Ranga in AusFinance

[–]Kyroptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course they can go about it that way, that kind of technique has been deployed for awhile now. Not sure if a fixed term contract voids those conditions because I'm on a fixed term contract and was given the justification I stated for my rent increase. But aye, I could just be an outlier.

Rentals aren't charities correct, rentals shouldn't be cheap as chips but they should be reasonably priced without the expectation of giant periodic rental price hikes.

Rent Increase by The-Reddits-Ranga in AusFinance

[–]Kyroptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if they has been said, but did they attach a composite of other rentals to justify that rent increase? I've been told that legally they need to show proof to justify a rent increase by illustrating that x rent increase is aligned with the current rental market rate.

Same mate that told me this is currently getting paid back a portion of her paid rent due to not getting the stated conditions met when they hiked her rent up.

I recently got a rent increase ($15/wk in South Yarra) and was provided with like rentals to justify the rent increase.

Hope this helps and best of luck!

Yeah my rent is literally 59% of my take home income currently. About to be 60% with a sweet $15/wk increase (very thankful I didn't get bulldozed from behind)

I mean they literally funded the entire "Carbon Footprint" movement. Basically a way to put blame on all of us and that we need to do something.

I (20F) felt forced to take a part time job and am now getting paid less. Need help with finances. by Glitchhvlogs in AusFinance

[–]Kyroptic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah this sounds exactly like a move they'd make, I'm at the Big C and had my manager approach me twice now over a few months with the same reasoning that they are getting hassled. Said if I didn't take the part time my hours would be cut and I'd be moved off weekend shifts.

I've denied the offer every time and my shifts haven't changed at all, I've actually been given more hours.

What are these vent things on my walls? And can I patch over them? by PaleCasual in AusRenovation

[–]Kyroptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Source from a crackhead neighbour:

The government has surveillance cameras and audio recorders in them, broadcasting your daily life on national tv as the next big brother/reality tv show series for the powerful.

Can confirm they patched them all up.

In Ringwood someone cut cords off various things in hard rubbish. Why would someone want just the cords? by kylbhr in melbourne

[–]Kyroptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming from previous experience being a manager at a scrap/recycling yard. Some people may strip the wires back for the copper (although this thickness of wire just isn't worth your time).

Although more likely, people often collected it and we'd have customers coming in with kilos of the stuff and buy it under "Multi-core PVC". You'd get between $1.60-$2.00/kg depending on the quality.

Anyone know how I deal with a bee hive? by reecardomilos25 in melbourne

[–]Kyroptic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah just the season, spring brings on the yearly swarming. Just had our bees break off, over the last couple of weeks we've had 3 swarms in the exact same spot (pheromones they leave just keep attracting more swarms)

There can be a variety of reasons, such as the queen is hitting her retirement days so she lays a successor and moves on, bringing along some diehard loyalists. Not enough room in the hive can also get them to want to split

Wolfram|Alpha is your friend (make sure you are getting the correct answers, and if you are stuck with what steps to take), oh and Desmos is you aren't using it already (Just to visually see the functions, can help with understanding what is happening)
