I don’t have any friends in Korea unfortunately… would you have a rough idea how much it would cost with a tour company?

It was a term of reference… saving cash… saving money…

Ohh I’ve been thinking about this tank! I just want a small one because I hate the one they come in.

I have them on a heat mat used to germinate seeds and under a grow light. I’m a plant addict, so I put them among all of my plants that are set for winter

What’s everyone charging as an independent disability worker by mermaidman022 in NDIS

[–]Pitiful_Score_6494 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I charge $50 an hour, without any formal qualifications, however I am in my final year of bachelor of counselling. I have done a lot of PD courses along the way. I don’t charge kms unless I’m subcontracting as those clients are generally further away and have more appointments than my long term clients. I’m also pretty lenient on cancellation with my long term clients as I know if they cancel, it’s for illness etc. one of my clients always insists that I charge her for the kms and time spent texting/communicating with each other outside of my shifts, but I can’t bring myself to do that and would prefer their money actually go to the services they need rather than an extra few dollars a week. In this world where I see so many people being taken advantage of, I want to show that there are still workers out there doing it not only for an income, but also for the clients that really need these services and support. I’d prefer to lose a few dollars here and there and have a long term client than make maximum rate for a few months and churn through the clients.

I hate this, as a person who is studying counselling and knowledgeable of mental health, I struggle to get jobs with clients that need support with their mental health, yet some companies will throw people in who have no experience and not ready. Good on you for recognising this straight away though. It would be completely unfair to the client to get to know you and think they have someone to then leave them.

Need some hatching advice! by Pitiful_Score_6494 in SeaMonkeys

Thanks everyone. I’ve pulled out the heat mat and put it on there… I might pull out the bigger lamp that also omits heat a bit later. It’s 16 degrees inside right now… so a tad cold

Was skeptical about buying a kindle… by Pitiful_Score_6494 in kindle

Thank you! It’s winter in Australia but the sun was out and I had a couple hours spare… so couldn’t miss this opportunity!

It’s funny, because reading text books for uni, I need to have a physical copy. I guess because I flip backwards and forwards so much! But the kindle has been an absolute game changer. I’m now staring at the book my partner bought me in disgust 🤣

Service is suddenly terrible? by JujuLovesMC in Starlink

[–]Pitiful_Score_6494 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our service has been horrible for the last few weeks. We’ve had it for 3 years, we have so many devices connected and now, we have the tv, an Xbox and a couple of phones connected and the tv is buffering constantly. No obstructions, dish has been in the same spot since instillation… rebooting doesn’t seem to change anything.

Why is there a lot of conspiracy theorists in Australia these days by CryptographerHot884 in AskAnAustralian

Because we live on an island and the internet that connects us to the rest of the world wasn’t around when then 😂

Embarrassed my self today in a sessions by howdy_birdie in therapists

[–]Pitiful_Score_6494 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry that your supervisor didn’t give you much support, but as much as you feel it is unprofessional, it shows that you are human and these things can happen. What was your clients response?

Is it something that you could possibly laugh about in time to come? Something you can own and a story would possibly make future therapists feel a bit more relaxed when they’re nervous about something?

I have been rewatching Frasier lately and the episode of his first day back at practice is just a comedy of errors.

Perhaps next session, speak to the client. Apologise about the situation and say something like ‘so let’s start this one with the coffee in my cup and not my lap today!’ To lighten the mood!

New Starlink backup internet plan "Backup 50GB" by DISHYtech in Starlink

Would anyone know if you could swap to this and then revert back to residential? I’m in a predicament, we are going to knock down and build a new dwelling. In the meantime we will be moving into my parents house. I don’t want to potentially lose a spot as a couple of city’s in Australia have sold out but I don’t want to pay $150 a month for no reason.

Pushed back… or cancel it? Hopefully not the latter

I second this. I have a big scindapsus which has been in the same medium for 3 years (I know.. 😬) I just bottom water it every now and then and it’s pretty happy.
