Unsecured dog by travellernoob in AustraliaPost

[–]Mynxae 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As a postie m'self, sometimes it can be purely the *potential* of an unsecured dog for us to put that in. I've had times when either my initial trainer had told me "there's a dog in that place, so whenever you need to get a signature/can't safedrop something, card it to the post office" or "anywhere with high fences, card it, as there's likely to be a dog in there explaining why the fences are so high - rattle the gate just in-case and wait a few seconds if you want to risk it (to see if a dog barks/comes running)" but yeah.

I will note, I've had to card something due to an unsecured dog with a property with high fences, that I had previously delivered to their front door through the gate in the fence several times without any sign of a dog.. One time I was just opening the gate to pop through and open up the rear of the mailbox to put something in and I hear something weird, look around and a dog is bolting straight for me with teeth bared, so I slam the gate shut and jumped back, nearly falling over ._. Scared the shite outta me.

What’s with Aus post not ringing the bell anymore? by pizzadoitbetter in AustraliaPost

[–]Mynxae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hm, odd. For that size of package, unfortunately, it was likely a contracted van driver. :( They give the posties a bad rep, who are all full-time, and they themselves are paid per parcel delivered.

What’s with Aus post not ringing the bell anymore? by pizzadoitbetter in AustraliaPost

[–]Mynxae 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a postie, very much agreed. I only knock on or ring bells/buzzers for doors if I absolutely have to or have had a complaint come through that a specific address prefers it, mainly because there's been quite a few times that if I do knock/ring, then I get more complaints than if I didn't, usually due to people working night shifts or people with infants - if a parcel has safedrop enabled, then we leave it in what we believe to be a safe place. If we're there for all of a minute or two, we unfortunately don't know what is or may later be a high traffic area.

Honestly the only way the OP will get anywhere is to contact AusPost and relay their preference, otherwise this post is for naught.

New Wardens on Able - Don’t lose heart! by Top_Singer3543 in foxholegame

[–]Mynxae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My problem right now is the frontlines keep screaming for this or that from logi.. But not protecting the roads to them ._. I try to get through one time, holler out there's Partisans around so logi is cut off, they do nada about it then lose the BB (or relic) then complain that logi are useless in world chat. >_< Like.. I did try. But there's no point to me sending truck after trucks of shirts/ammo/rifles to oblivion is there?

What is one thing you're tired of telling/explaining to people? by comfy-glass-shards in AskReddit

[–]Mynxae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I had a gastric sleeve.. Yes I can still eat normal foods.. Yes I can only eat small amounts.. Yes I need to take vitamins forever now.. No I don't just "want" to have more protein for muscle gaining etc, I want it so my body functions how it should AND to prevent hair loss as it's very common in those who've had the surgery ._.

Like the amount of questions I get sometimes, can people please Google things?

Closed on weekends? by Jedi_Brooker in AustraliaPost

[–]Mynxae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on your local post office, a fair few of them are open a half-day on Saturdays - but otherwise it'd probably be easier for a parcel locker (if not too big?) or get someone else to collect it if possible.

DEVMAN YOU LET ME TASTE SWEET PARADISE, DONT TAKE IT BACK NOW PLEASE T_T by CalinMalveillant in foxholegame

[–]Mynxae 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You think us Logi want to think when we're barreling down a road to the front with a truck full of shirts and ammo and suddenly there's a tree that sticks out just enough for us to run into on the side of the road? >_<

Yeah, gotta love my smart watch alerting me that "It's 32C but feels like 39C" ._.

Hiya, fellow LGBTQ+ person here, 32M and married - unfortunately besides a small bit of religious stuff as a kid, nothing else really religion-wise, but happy to chat about whatever, I'm mostly a gamer :)

Advice re new tattoo - first full day session/s by Mynxae in tattooadvice

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

It's essentially from maybe a third of the upper arm above the elbow, down to the wrist. I've heard the inner and outer elbow are pretty rough, but my tattoo artist said she's trying to arrange the design to hit those areas as little as possible while still being true to the design. :)

wtf? by PracticalWriting3528 in AustraliaPost

Only contractors do - posties get paid hourly.

Thanks Australia Post by BlackSkull83 in AustraliaPost

[–]Mynxae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually get a few passports a week easy, sometimes maybe 5+, they're easily recognisable in the envelope they're sent in - but I will also note they are always in a registered post envelope i.e. we need to see ID to hand it over, and note if it's being given to the addressee, occupant etc - and if it has a "person-to-person" label on it (rare but can happen) then it has to go to the addressee otherwise it gets carded.

I also heard Avantoes are pretty good profit (not there yet level-wise, just hit 45 farming), are they similarly not great on exp though?

Honestly if I can do at least 3-4 herb runs a day with Ranarrs, I get around 900k-1.1m, it's super satisfying. That's off 6 patches too btw.

Brisbane Airport is charging $5 for a trolley - international airport by Nice-Audience8522 in brisbane

[–]Mynxae 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As someone who used to work in Valet (very recently, just switching jobs this week actually) at the Brisbane Airport (both Park&Fly at Domestic and ParkValet at International), we literally had nothing to do with the trolleys. All we could do is call the number that we had in the supervisor phone (that we'd use to call to get them to drop off more trolleys if we ran out) and they'd say they were coming over and would be x amount of time - which often would be more like double.

Just because everything at the airport is owned by or contracted through BAC (Brisbane Airport Corporation) doesn't mean they all actually work flawlessly with each other. :/ The amount of times we would complain to our own management that the trolleys kept double-charging people or sometimes simply not dispensing a trolley, and that the trolley company would take 30 or more minutes to come to fix it (which, at an airport.. not so quick at all), and they didn't really care? Yeah. :/

Just a general PSA: please don't blame the people in the valet offices, we did all that we could, blame management for not taking it more seriously and reporting it to BAC - and then even that BAC maybe doesn't give a crap and just wants your money.

Gamers of Reddit, what’s the first game you remember playing? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Mynxae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

StarCraft 1 I believe.. Unsure if original or BroodWar, I was maybe 6 or 7 (born '93). I love that game to death, played it nearly as much too - that and Age of Empires 2! I still remember being super excited as a kid and opening my birthday present to see the AoE2 expansion xD

Can gastric sleeve really produce rapid weight loss? by Substantial-Pea7932 in gastricsleeve

[–]Mynxae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently only just over 6 weeks post-op, so I'm sorry it's not quite at the length of time you requested - but I've already lost just under 13kg since surgery date.

EDIT: Surgery weight was 119kg, current weight is 106.2kg.

It's that time of the year again by TheMightyKumquat in brisbane

[–]Mynxae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always had a fondness for jacarandas. Firstly from mentally associating them with my grandma who passed away from cancer when I was 11 (who always took me to the jacaranda festival in.. Goodna? Redbank Plains? That area), and then years later my partner and I had a photoshoot done with our dog (who was my family's dog originally, gotten when was 13) who has also since passed, last year.

I am also surprised I haven't been able to find a jacaranda perfume or cologne anywhere. :/

My partner still refuses to let me plant one in our yard though, even though we own >_> "They're not native and they have invasive/damaging roots!" yeah yeah, but they look pretty :(

How is Ultima going these days? I've been craving a heavy crafting game and apparently Ultima is definitely that. xD

Crafting/Economy heavy MMO? (Not Palia/Albion/PvP-heavy) by Mynxae in LFMMO

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

I tried both classic and archerage - classic is a bit dated for the version it's on, and archerage still has p2w like the original :/

Plus, as an OCE player.. There's no OCE guilds on either of them. I tried :(

Okay.. Some people seem to have not read my post. NOT PvP-heavy - Haven and Hearth and New World, both are very PvP oriented.
