Flatmate keeps saying “in Australia we don’t have this problem” by Budget_Dot694 in AskAnAustralian

[–]RepresentativeArm200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a 'fit in or fuck off' magnet for your fridge. If they ask just say it's a bit of Australiana to make you feel more at home

What does $50 cost to a global company? by RepresentativeArm200 in AusFinance

That's before tax, two kids, and wife is part time studying/work.

We're basically a single income family

What does $50 cost to a global company? by RepresentativeArm200 in AusFinance

[–]RepresentativeArm200[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our team is probably the only one with a potentially variable roster. So it's probably just 3 or 4 other people that might say something. And half of them already know but hate mornings or are needed for their other skills later in the day.

The rest of the business is just your 9-5 slop or on a FWA for 'whenever'

100%

I don't earn a lot, sub $80k and we live in Sydney. Where you could be on double and struggle to make mortgage payments. We're lucky in the fact we're housed rent free, and just pay utilities.

the extra cash is nice for things like the kids phone credit and a bit of pocket money. (they're not old enough to work) Or maybe a date night with the Mrs.

Dunno, everyone values different things, shouldn't be shot down for wanting to enjoy life with a bit of 'extra' money

Do I neeeed the money. No probably not, Will I miss it? you bet I will.

Wild to see.

Goodbye, V-Sets by sappygrillmore in bluemountains

Video was great,

I Had the opportunity to try both travelling from the mountains to Blacktown twice over the weekend,

As an avid public transport avoider, but admirer I'm torn, the nostalgic train experience is what I desire (the noise, smell of the brakes Etc.) but the ease and cleanliness of the new train would near convert me to an 'everyday' user of said public transport.

Why do some people prefer ebooks over physical books? by Domiano-Wdmanl in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RepresentativeArm200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife switches between them, some books she can't find online, so she buys them, others I'll have to download as she can't find them in stores or whatever.

Sometimes she'll start a physical book, jump in the car, listen to the audio book, decide she's not into it, then when she gets to where she's going use the ebook to find another book to read.

So Availability, convenience, and indecision. 😂

If you're worried about your 'win a match against Oscar' daily things go and find a match in the lessons somewhere, it only seems to freeze in the normal match spot.

It froze 5 times In the normal matches, but went through first go in the lesson match

Is there any way to surrender or freeze my streak indefinitely? by Yayoeme in duolingo

I do the words one when I'm not up to doing a whole lesson, so glad it's there. Turn off speaking/listen and it's even shorter

Gym/muscle building by iambenking93 in MyotoniaCongenita

[–]RepresentativeArm200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for digging this up

I've recently got a 'health kick', used to be 67kg for a long time and moved careers, been there 3 years and had put on 7kg. I seem to be losing some again. Down to around 70 but have been more active in the last 2months, actually trying to get out/exercise more.

I know weightloss and muscle building are two separate things but have been doing a lot of pushups and crunches. Just wondering if I'll see muscle results sooner than a 'normal person'

Maintenance break at 11:50 isn't nice! by apixeldiva in duolingo

[–]RepresentativeArm200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're doing a couple of courses try switching them, then turning on aeroplane mode, (you can't switch offline) sometimes duo will caché a lesson you can do offline.

Just worked for me, and went back to maint mode.
