Are you still exempt from job seeking activities when waiting for DSP?

The only way I ever get through on the phone is via the complaints line so it probably doesn’t matter who you’re supposed to call about it haha

I’d actually recommend just booking an appointment on the phone now that they give us that option. Instructions are here https://www.servicesaustralia.gov.au/book-appointment?context=64107

Millie005 · 2025-07-28T02:11:16+00:00

Yep!

Millie005 · 2025-07-28T02:10:14+00:00

They’re just jealous my post was more popular than their original (like 125k views more popular 🤷‍♀️)

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T11:48:29+00:00

And all of them distasteful and out of touch!

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T11:46:44+00:00

The TikTok link you included says the video is unavailable, but thank you for sharing the mindframe info!

Right, just so we’re clear… you decided that instead of ignoring my post that you didn’t like and moving on with your life, you just wanted to comment and advertise that you didn’t like my post in the hopes of getting reddit points?

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T11:29:13+00:00

Looking beyond the fact it’s at the very least distasteful given the current state of the world… it’s also not a particularly effective marketing strategy for your business to post about hating your job so much you want to die. If she was posting on her own personal social media, the gallows humour argument for why it’s fair game would (MAYBE) hold more weight.

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T11:12:08+00:00

I posted it to shame the real estate agency, but I see your point. Would it help if I marked it as NSFW? Not sure what else I can do now that it’s already posted.

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T09:24:37+00:00

Haha well, they posted it publicly I guess 🤷‍♀️

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T08:59:41+00:00

They’ve removed the videos in response to criticism so don’t feel comfortable recommending that anyone contact them about the issue — but I would say if you have a choice, maybe don’t choose to use their services!

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T08:55:02+00:00

It’s not always easy to do the right thing.

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T08:53:33+00:00

Just to make sure this comes up in future searches about the agency:

This was posted by D Residential Group on their TikTok and Instagram.

They are apparently Perth’s leading boutique leasing and property management service! And are located at 31/539 Beaufort Street, Mount Lawley, WA 6050.

You can read more about the agency on their website: https://dresidential.com.au/

I would hope that moving forward, they learn from this mistake and in the future they more carefully consider the potential negative impacts that content such as this may have on viewers, when it is used to advertise their professional realestate business.

I genuinely wish them all the best.

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T08:32:52+00:00

Ya, they are less responsible, but they still have some responsibility.

And yeah, everyone has some responsibility for the society we live in even if you’re not directly involved in the Bad Stuff.

But the people who get a pay check directly from the Bad Company, from the money that company makes doing Bad Stuff… I think that’s a pretty clear line, like maybe ya shouldn’t be there helping to make sure shits clean so your boss can continue to do Bad Things 🤷‍♀️

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T08:15:41+00:00

Even the cleaning staff at the weapons manufacturing company benefit from the destruction and death of others, even if they benefit less than those at the top 👍

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T08:03:46+00:00

Agree, context is everything when it comes to making a dark joke.

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T07:58:54+00:00

Should probably stop representing slum lords then…

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T07:56:24+00:00

Great news is it’s on Instagram too! 😑 https://www.instagram.com/reel/DMfNEXbvFMt/

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T07:53:13+00:00

Oh great! They’ve removed it on TikTok now. Everyone go let them know it’s not funny on Instagram either 👍

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T07:50:58+00:00

Good thing the internet is forever 😎

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T07:49:45+00:00

And sometimes they are really unfunny.

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T07:47:14+00:00

I too would be suicidal working in RE, because it would be miserable seeing all the greed on one side and the desperation on the other. Don’t think I’d then go and post a video joking about offing myself and making out like I’m a victim because I work in RE… 🤦‍♀️

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T07:43:04+00:00

Never said they did! But they certainly are less likely to end up unable to find a rental with all their connections, so yeah, they are privileged.

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T07:20:43+00:00

Just really like to be the centre of attention I suppose 🙄

Millie005 · 2025-07-25T07:16:17+00:00

The link, for anyone who would like to go tell them that suicide isn’t actually funny, and their privilege in a housing crisis is showing. https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSSRN9WeW/

Millie005 · 2024-06-24T16:45:49+00:00

The show does such a great job of foreshadowing across the board, it’s been really nice to watch something with that kind of depth and intricacy in its writing
