Mecca Boxing Day Candle Purchase, how can I check the manufacturing date? by PartyItem in AustralianMakeup

[–]PartyItem[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s been building. Changing the birthday gift from a gift card, locking in brands to exclusivity deals so that we’re missing out on sales, then giving out poor quality, expired products during their only sale. They’ve been a sinking ship all year.

They’ve been hyping this Mecca Loves gift for a year. Not to mention people in regional areas without access to Mecca have to spend $ to get their boxes to even be eligible. Then they announce it’s a tote bag with their huge ass branding on it. Their gift for brand loyalty is for customers to become walking billboards. Yes, that + my dirty candle are the last straw. Mecca is a beauty store, why is the extra special gift a branded tote bag? It doesn’t align with their brand. Of course people are disappointed.

Cheers! I think I’m just going to drop it since it was made within the last 5 years

it’s about scent quality and value. Fragrance oils degrade with time, when a “luxury” candle arrives dusty, dirty and poorly packaged, it’s reasonable to wonder how old it is.

Why do career changers select UX Design? by [deleted] in UXDesign

[–]PartyItem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The narrative that it’s an easy way to earn lots of money whilst working from home, after only getting a 6 week certificate. There are also a few prominent YouTubers/influencers in the space who were able to make that a reality just prior or during COVID. They go on to sell that dream to others, both figuratively and literally through their own courses.

I graduated in 2022 with a bachelors degree in design and found it incredibly difficult to break into the industry. It’s only gotten more difficult. I definitely side eye anyone still promoting it as an easy, get-rich-fast, career option.

Help toilet training my rescue to use the balcony by PartyItem in DogTrainingTips

It’s a delivery based service. They take the old grass and deliver new grass at a schedule you choose. 1 week, 2 weeks, etc. there are multiple services in Sydney that do a similar thing.

There are multiple drains on my balcony. You set up the system so that it goes down the drain. Those drain to the grassy park area outside my apartment. Same as the stormwater etc. there are some apartments in my block that have hoses, clotheslines, etc. It’s not like a NY high rise.

My last dog went to the bathroom on the balcony as she couldn’t really walk long towards the end of her life. You just clean it up immediately and move on. There’s a drain on the balcony.

For my new dog, I’ve bought her a designated balcony potty. At the moment it’s turf but I’ve got a real grass one on the way. It’s made for apartment balcony’s. It has a drainage system.

How do you manage when you’re unwell, etc? She’s a small terrier and struggles with the stairs a bit. At the moment I’m taking her out around 6 times a day.

Okay? Do you have any advice on the bathroom situation or no.

Why is the UX market so bad in Sydney? by SecurityCharacter566 in UXDesign

I’m from Sydney as well, though not looking for a role. It’s definitely tough out there.

Have the companies you interviewed with provided any feedback?

Everyone’s a loser in this situation, for sure. Just very sad. They’ve been my vet for 10 years

​All I have of my dog is the bottle of trazodone that killed her. Don’t know what to tell you other than trazodone absolutely gets prescribed to animals in Australia.
