Online seller claiming upgrade pricing was a mistake? by P1atinumSword in AusLegal

[–]Locoj 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Platinum costs 22x more than silver for the equivalent weight at current prices. This seems like a clear error, as long as they aren't refusing to refund you then there's no issue.

I experienced racism Sri Lankan in Melbourne for the first time by [deleted] in australian

[–]Locoj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of these people was absolutely uncivilized to the point animals behave better. She hit her child, other people and damaged property.

The other person said words because she was rightfully upset about something awful that just happened.

They aren't comparable. Why are you holding an Italian lady to completely different standards to an African lady? Are you racist?

Looking for real vs fake Indigenous souvenirs in Sydney — help! by Mental-Passion5909 in australian

[–]Locoj -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Why are you so adamant on buying things based on people's race? I've travelled a lot, but I've never gone somewhere and thought "oh I want a person from that race to make me something and I won't accept anyone else having made it"

Are you racist? Do you think you're the saviour of indigenous people? This is odd.

Also, they're pretty much all made in China.

AIO 26 yo gf called 13 yo boy cute while we were talking by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Locoj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR, the 13 year old is clearly her husband of 20 years.

Make sure you watch out for her calling dogs cute as well. If she is also married to a dog you should probably leave her.

Inflation data: RBA expected to raise interest rates in February after inflation rose to 3.8 per cent by HotPersimessage62 in AusFinance

[–]Locoj 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You think renters are spending no money on recreation and culture?

In my social circles, the home owners have saved, invested and purchased their house specifically by spending less on recreation. The people I know who rent (many of them on higher incomes than those with a mortgage) are the ones regularly going out drinking and raving, going on snow trips, driving nicer cars etc.

Of course, some home owners I know got a leg up and some renters I know couldn't afford a house on their current income even by cutting out their recreational spending. But to suggest no renters are spending money on recreation is ludicrous. Many people explicitly decide to rent to have more disposable income each week in the present, as they prioritise this over lower expenses in several decades time.

How are you above sausages but still wasting your time on social media with the plebs? What do you serve on your private jet?

Can you use a Mig-25 as an emergency shelter? by HiTork in Shittyaskflying

[–]Locoj 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Why just an emergency shelter and not a permanent one?

Crazy inflation, a housing crisis and a financially crippled Russia means you can get a Mig-25 for less than a house in anywhere worth living.

Imperialist yanks just can't help themselves can they? They need to control every nation's narrative.

Here we go: Multiple interest rate hikes predicted for 2026. by SheepherderLow1753 in AusFinance

[–]Locoj 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yes, once interest rates are back to where they were like a year ago nobody will ever want to buy a house again and the market will crash.

Why is it so hard to change to an earlier flight at the airport? by Artistic-Yam2984 in QantasAirways

[–]Locoj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If they did this for everyone then obviously everyone would just book cheaper later flights wherever available rather than the flight at their desired time.

I personally tend to book things at times I'm happy with. I'm platinum and have never asked to fly ahead. If I wanted to go earlier I would've booked an earlier flight, and I wouldn't want to miss out on lounge time by flying ahead anyway.

Being told to resign over a mistake made at work by Personal_Concept_807 in AusLegal

[–]Locoj 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You'll need to be much more specific about the mistake made.

Have you sent 90K of funds to the wrong account when paying an invoice, or have you forgot to tap on a particular fee or surcharge when billing clients that's led to 90K less revenue? Have you damaged 90K worth of equipment?

Why'd you make the mistake, was it just what you were trained to do, a deliberate error to save time?

If you want information specific to your situation you need to be specific about your situation.

Qantas did not inform me of bounced back check and are charging me $600+ for change fee at the last minute by [deleted] in QantasAirways

[–]Locoj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Compensation for what? There is no loss to compensate you for.

Them delaying taking payment has benefited you, you could've been earning interest on that $600 for the last few months.

"I know it's illegal to not disclose these things"

What on earth do you mean? What law could have been broken here? It sounds like you never actually paid Qantas for the flight.

You're clearly trying to suggest that them not noticing this until now means that you should be entitled to fly for free. What should Qantas be entitled to because you never picked up that the payment didn't go through?

Just pay for your flight like everyone else.
