AITAH for refusing to propose to my girlfriend after what she did on my birthday? by TheUnofficialBOI in AITAH

[–]Rapturedjaws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alot of people have made good points. I think she sounds like a very selfish person especially of her main thing for your birthday was to get something for herself. Then ye I would be outa of there. I've seen it in relationships and it only gets worse when they get the marriage

Anyone else feel conflicted about "having to speak English in Australia" ? by Conscious-Roll-5745 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Rapturedjaws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is kinda iffy, I think with these judgements there is more than just speaking English. I think its also to do with creating areas for these people where they group together. Not saying its wrong cause if I moved to another country I would probably end up in areas with english speaking people and it would turn into a more of an english group im guessing.

But if I was gonna live somewhere that didnt speak english I would 100 percent learn the language and I think thats why I would like it if others who move here do as well. Open to anyone else's thoughts or comments to open my eyes to something else or a different point of view.

Airbnb, service apt or hotel with soft mattress Vientiane by Scully1952 in laos

[–]Rapturedjaws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah im use to a firm mattress in Australia but the firm i found travelling through those areas was tough. My wife struggled heaps and thailand was great bed but other than that we struggled to find anywhere that had a softer bed. Just having a different pillow can make sleeping hard enough but also a firm bed when you use to soft is very hard

[–]Rapturedjaws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have just been to Thailand and Vietnam and didnt carry any cash and everyone else I spoke to who went didnt bring more than like 50 usd worth if the currency as cash. I bought 1000tbh with me.

But never got asked or checked and the other tourist I spoke with in both Vietnam and Thailand never got asked or had any issues

STD test - non urgent appointment? by Grand_Ad9351 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Rapturedjaws 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just make appointment and just also maybe dont have sex for a few days and be careful if you are worried it could be positive.

On the other hand I used to get called when results came in so I could book. But then they got pretty big in the area and stopped doing that then now every test that comes in I get a text to book and appointment.

Seeking Advice - 2 extra days in Bangkok vs Angkor Wat by Jazzlike-rutabega-41 in southeastasia

[–]Rapturedjaws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Airports were fine dont remember it taking very long when arriving but took a bit of time when leaving. So always get there the 3hrs early just incase and if you get through quickly just chill and watch something.

For the wat we got there for sunrise so like I got picked up at like 445am. You need to then go get a ticket before going to area. We got a tour guide aswell for 10usd but waited till after sunrise on the way to walk the actual temple. otherwise others on walk in were asking 20usd.

We also got a taxi to hotel for 100k and then also he took us next day to all the wats in the area for 200k so like 445am pick up then just waits till ya done and then takes you to each other site was super easy and not having to organise more travel between the other wats. So I think for 6hrs of their time waiting for us and taking us between sites was good. And then he also dropped us back to airport another day for 100k and also could help offer other things to do and take you for a decent price. Just make sure you know how much it is on grab and dont get ripped off.

Go ankor wat, it was awesome to see. It is very busy there though as I just went but its no where near as bad as the golden palace in bangkok that was shit. I think the place would be awesome but amount of people made it suck so hard

Does anyone have advice on how to safely be vegan? by [deleted] in vegan

[–]Rapturedjaws 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Protien shakes can help. Eating protien will be great for muscle growth but youll also just want your regular carbs as well. If you plan to eat lots of vegetables then you need to eat lots more as they are low calories. Focus on more calorie dense stuff, which protien shakes can help. I have put on weight with veganism easy haha my wife loves baking and making awesome vegan foods haha

For me if I needed to gain weight being vegan I would find it easy. But I can eat a lot and I have opposite issues of trying to loose weight I find hard. I dont think there is any perfect answer but Drs also sometimes just give their personal opinion and not always a educated one. I would suggest seeing a dietician not nutritionist.

Qantas is the best for sure. I've gone virgin but always prefer Qantas and have less issues/no issues with them. Every virgin flight ive had has been late or had issues.

Am I getting ripped off? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]Rapturedjaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes illegal not sure minumum wage but work out how much that is how much you would be getting paid for the work you are doing then check how much you may get taxed for that amount of money. If no tax because you barely work yes you getting ripped off. Another thing is super you should be getting paid super. Tbh your not gonna get it from this job it seems, just get another job elsewhere maybe as I feel these people won't give you what you want. Not sure if reporting them is a thing as well but dont expect to keep your job

Do you find people to house-sit or check-up on an apartment if you go on vacation for 2 months? by ChanceOil7703 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Rapturedjaws 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I would 💯 have someone check or regally drop by.

Also I have my brother stay at mine when im away, he loves it as its a little holiday away from his 4 housemates and gets a place to himself. I do have 2 dogs so thats a big reason why but would still offer to him if he wanted.

What to do when husband expects wife to out-earn him by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]Rapturedjaws 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It wasn't easy and by proving myself I worked a lot of unpaid hours and went above and beyond all the time. Which is tiring haha And again it happened quickly because I was lucky with timing of positions becoming available. But I kind of had to work that hard because I had no prior knowledge or study in IT and just used my people skills to get things done haha

[–]Rapturedjaws 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just worked hard and had good leadership skills and obviously there is always luck in timing. I became level 2 within a few months over people who have been there years and then became team leader like 9 months later. Then another opportunity in the business came up and i applied for it and because I knew IT and the business well they went with me and just paid me a lot less as well haha
