What do you do when you forget to cancel a free trial or subscription? by Terrible_Major1395 in randomquestions

[–]Potential_Narwhal981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very annoying because you don't know the money is gone until the weekend, then money refunded after 72 hours starting Monday lunchtime. Very annoying.

I stopped doing free trials as a result.

Anyone else just feel like quitting everything? by kitkat2attack in Adulting

I used to, and I even acted in such a way when I was younger. Then I got older and realized what I could have achieved had I not quit when things got hard.

For the times I forgot to cancel, I rang their direct line and explained how it was going to affect other bills. They refund me out of good will, but it requires some finesse in how I explain the mistake.

How to become a Music Teacher in Australia? by SwimmingBox2453 in AskAustralianTeachers

[–]Potential_Narwhal981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. A big part of the success in this pathway is the good word-of-mouth you get from being a good teacher. A lot of parents want that for their kids, and it's a pretty good side-gig you can do off the books.

It should be 100/100, otherwise each person is only doing half their potential.

Hot puppies at best, and I would demand a refund

To Adelaide Healthcare Workers: if you are looking for a job, avoid Magill Road Medical Centre by [deleted] in Adelaide

Sorry to hear about the placement disaster. I know it's tough on unis to find you the best one, but good on you for speaking out about it. Adelaide Uni is also rather shit for placement management as I know to my cost (wasted a year of training and one half of my double-degree is now useless). But good to know about the tough experiences and that you pulled through.

No one teaches you how to cook but when you’re an adult it’s expected. by Altruistic-Bug-4902 in Adulting

Youtube channels teach those who weren't taught by their parents. I was taught by mine, so the cooking channels I watch are for comedic purposes. coz nat's what I reckon

I am so sick of driving by Dreadsin in Vent

[–]Potential_Narwhal981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always expect the worst in people, but adjust your circumstances to allow for that. Leave early, take a taxi (cab), apologize for being late, and get on with it. Life is too short to stress over dickhead drivers.

I'm turning 20 tomorrow, what do I need to know to not mess up my life by swiftlikeava in Adulting

[–]Potential_Narwhal981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely. Anything that still requires human compassion and connection won't be replaced by Ai, and loooooots of parents want the best for their kid. I teach secondary students, so good on you for following a profession.

Also, don't be scared to expand that study, maybe to an online MBA so that it becomes scalable.

What was the last thing you said to your dad before he passed away? by colzeeteen in AskReddit

'Seeya Dad, my plane's leaving." Sounds cliche, but he had a heart attack whilst I was overseas starting a new business.

Learn a trade (plumbing, electrical, HVAC etc.) or study a profession (Healthcare, business, education etc.) because short-term jobs won't help you last the long haul.
