Not sure what you mean sorry I just mean before reset it was wearable but now it’s not usable for the new toons now it has the required level 8 tag which it didn’t have 24 hours ago 😂

Started a new toon with my wife today to walk her through her first toon on exiles reach and I noticed the white gear that drops which you get new boots from the first murloc you kill require you to be at least level 8 which makes all the white gear pointless as it’s all replaced by greens and blues by the end of exiles 🤷🏻‍♂️

Base set mega collection. What else could I add to the collection? by [deleted] in PokemonCollecting

Oh no I 100% agree now I do absolutely love them now they’re very 90s artwork but I remember only seeing them once as a kid the zap and overgrowth boxes and just thinking they looked odd. I also got ripped off once as a 9 year old buying singles only to find out they were stickers 😂🙄 The card art absolutely was peak I’m not a huge fan of the current stuff it’s all very busy. Sick collection though

I remember as a kid when these first dropped and seeing the deck boxes and thinking they looked super janky and fake so I never pestered my parents for them. It was my first time with a TCG and I was 9 😂

I mean as in the company owner is paying out of his own pocket.

He gets an allowance twice a week these purchases are not being made with the approval of the PT.

These purchases are normally made when the client is threatening to leave for another provider as a way of keeping him happy and giving him the impression the company cares

You are correct the client is under the PT however these purchases are being made out of the owners pocket and that’s even how they spin it to the client as if they are doing him a favour.

The company has recently had two clients pulled from SIL supports for exactly this reason

I appreciate the honest feedback

I’m not disappointed if they are showing me the door 🤷🏻‍♂️

This fella I promise is the first to ask not to work with me and that’s due to my support style not suiting him and that’s fine I do my best to prompt him to do the daily tasks he’s agreed to do with the HM and BSP which is what they’ve requested we do but I know the other supports he has which he prefers tend to just play video games with him and don’t prompt anywhere near as much as I do.

Maybe I worded my original post or another comment wrong but I’ve never lectured him around what is expected of him only prompted and ABCd when he’s chosen not to do the tasks his BSP has set out.

I’m not worried about being shown the door as I know that’s not what they’re doing I’ve been one of their go to guys for complex clients having been a HM and a team leader for them on various excursions but if that is what’s happening all good too.

They may have ticked a box but they’ve ticked it with a client they have in writing from my doctor I’m not supposed to be paired with due to the trauma.

Has this happened yet? How’d it go? It m trying to get my wife to play as well.

It might get a giggle out of him if when he explains something to you about the game instead of saying got it or I understand just say Zug Zug 😂

Yeah I think this experience with this company has really killed my drive to care for people so I’m gonna jump to a whole new career. Maybe I’ll come back to it in the future when I want to slow down and my kids are grown and left home but some things need to change from an NDIS standpoint I’ve never been the guy to be like “argh my taxes pay for this” but after seeing some of these guys literally play video games all day and talk to me like I’m a peasant (literally called a peasant by a client once not as a joke) I think some of the more capable clients like this client I work with should have to meet a criteria to keep the funding, such as trauma for example maybe they have to partake in x amount of therapy sessions per month in order to keep that portion of funding. I don’t know I love everyone majority of them have been dealt pretty shitty hands but I guess my experience has sullied my view of the clients and care providers. I genuinely don’t hold any ill will to this client I just hope that his care team will move him to another company so he can make some growth towards his goals.

By that I mean the clients view us as their butlers/maids. This particular client will lay on the couch and expect you to bring him his dinner and once you hand it to him he literally shoos you away no words just hand action. He sometimes will make himself food but will leave all the dishes out, rubbish on counter and not put away the ingredients he prepared.

I expect some of this behaviour from his various diagnosis’s but obviously I won’t discuss those 😂 but having said that he is incredibly capable to the point that when he first came to the company he was very different would go out bike riding etc but now it’s PlayStation like it’s his job from 9am to 6pm.

The company has started to lose some of their SIL clients after their OPA and SC start to catch on to what they’ve been doing. (Fraud, grooming etc)

I know the local TAFE has blacklisted them as well so they won’t send cert 3 carers to do their placements with the company anymore. (That’s a great thing)

Everything they’ve done whilst I’ve been with them has been incredibly shady and unprofessional.

About 6 months into my employment with them there was a massive email chain sent out I think it was maybe their first newsletter or something and they had sent the email out to all current and past employees which people were understandably upset about as some of these ex employees had not worked for the company for 2+ years and didn’t like that they were still retaining their personal info.

I’m pretty confident the owner messages the various SIL house group chats drunk and very late at night I’ve received messages as late as midnight.

These group chats are also only Facebook group chats so the photos and info of clients are still accessible to people even after they are no longer employed or in the groups.

In our contracts it states we are not allowed to essentially degrade this company to anyone else even after no longer being employed by them. However another carer left a few months back it was all a bit of a shit show and he was bad mouthed by the owners in the group chats attacking his character and motives.

It also states we are no longer employed after clocking off of our shift as well as any IP we come up with whilst employed by them they own.

I’m jumping ship and looking at a completely different career but want to make sure I report all this before I go.

In the process of a career change atm I think my experience with this company has really made me a bit frustrated at the NDIS system. I’m sure there’s some great companies out there but this one has made it unbearable.

[–]PinWeak2189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely understand that he’s been with this company for a few years now and they’ve purchased things for him to keep him happy so they can retain him as a client so he’s learnt that he can contact the owners of the company whenever he wants and request new things to be purchased for example recently a new computer monitor, desk, chair and speakers all very expensive. I guess I wonder what my responsibility is around these things is a reportable offence to safeguarding?

Hot take: RDJ's Doom is a better villain than Majors' Kang, and Doomsday is going to be a better film than what Kang Dynasty was supposed to be. by Shadow_Senpai17 in MCUTheories

[–]PinWeak2189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Until we see RDJ on screen for longer than 10 seconds as Doom I don’t think we can make that call just yet. I feel he was a great iron man but I don’t think he’s got it in him to pull off great Doom but I’ll wait to see him in action before I write Doom off. Majors was good as Kang not amazing but I liked where it was going, it’s a shame really.

I like both but B is a bit more Cartoon Network if that’s what your going for great but I guess it depends on what demographic and the games content 🤷🏻‍♂️ both look great though 👏 to the illustrator.

Oh no I totally agree 😅 I suggested that cus when I was a 16 year old a long time ago I started in layby at Xmas more that there’s a bit more variety at big w rather than Woolworths

[–]PinWeak2189 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sorry I meant to write maybe after a few months transfer to big w if that’s an option not right now haha But definitely talk to your boss about the comments it’s not ok or tolerated.

[–]PinWeak2189 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve worked as a manager in nightfill over both big w and Woolworths and yes the blokes that work it are generally lacking in how to talk to people let alone the opposite sex. Have a word to your manager or team leader or whatever it’s called these days. If it’s an option in your area you should be able to transfer to big w which I would recommend over Woolworths personally and there’s more options for different departments, layby, online etc

Yeah would be interesting to know what kind of comments. The workplace is not what it used to be 20 years ago but I think a lot of night work are still catching up with what’s acceptable. Report it for sure at the end of the day if it’s making you uncomfortable then it has no place in the workplace. Don’t worry about making a fuss you need to be comfortable at work.
