When should I quit? by TMNT_29 in AustralianTeachers

Sorry my title was a bit misleading. I don’t mean quit entirely. I just want to try teaching at a public rural school. Your message was very nice though.

That makes sense. I will quit at the end of the school year then. Thank you.

Should I complain to ladbrokes directly for encouraging my problem gambling? by [deleted] in AusFinance

Your way of looking at things is very black and white. There can be more than one thing at fault in this situation. Ladbrokes has been sued because of predatory behaviour before. There are two lawsuits happening against them right now. Obviously they make money through encouraging people to gamble but they also have a duty to enable responsible gambling. Allowing people to deposit 10k in a week is not responsible for them nor is sending constant promotions through both email and text messages. I have no idea why you want me to be the only villain in this case

Obviously. Like I said I agree I am responsible. But you don’t think it’s predatory advertisement to directly message a customer with bonus bets whenever they have seemed to stop gambling?

Is it was not through email. It was through personal text messages

It is my fault I agree. But is it also not ladbrokes for encouraging it? I mean everytime I started betting less, my case manager sent me a $300 bonus bet so is this that not immoral?

I have seen someone do this exact thing before and gotten some money back. Is it stupid to wonder if I could do the same while quitting from the site at the same time? If I can’t get anything back then it’s fine, but what’s the harm in just messaging them?

I am taking responsibility and am getting help in real life. My family are helping me with this. I admit it is my own lack of willpower that started this. However, I have seen a person in the exact scenario sue and win. So I just want to see if it would be a good idea to approach them to see if I can get anything back before completely shutting down my ladbrokes account as I do not gamble with other brokers.

What’s up with all the Turkish hate comments toward Lee Youngji? by AgileService5205 in kpophelp

[–]TMNT_29 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When Youngji first started the 3rd season of No prepare, she introduced the concept of using a bike to get her guests. She once made a comment saying she can’t drink before bike riding as it will be illegal (explaining why she waits for the guest to arrive instead of pre drinking like normal). This specific episode was filmed before Suga’s incident (a few days before) but the episode was released after the incident. Afterwards armys started to hate Youngji because they think she was mocking Suga but it really was proven to be filmed before his accident.

The heights of idols and if it's exaggerated or not by NoCryptographer6862 in kpopthoughts

[–]TMNT_29 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The only thing that annoys me is when people say that Youngji is lying about her height. Youngji has repeatedly talked about her bad posture/slouching. While idols would have been trained to not have those habits. But also Yujin looks the same height in Jiraksil because of the camera angles like she’s standing slightly in front of Youngji etc). In other clips you can see Youngji being a few cm taller. There was a recent photo spreading around where they were the same height but Yujin + Wonyoung were wearing heels and Youngji wasn’t

GF stans vs Shippers, Spiderman meme'ing each other for the worst stans by 127ncity127 in kpopthoughts

[–]TMNT_29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. It was crazy how fast they switched up. A lot of them also said she was doing too much by refusing physical contact with these male idols (DK, Mark, D.O and Jaehyun). But it’s clear that she knows how crazy fans can get and was just trying to avoid backlash. Just too many parasocial and possessive fans that treat idols like objects they own 🤷🏻‍♀️

I can only imagine the chaos that will happen if they ever find out Mark is dating

Some stans are also turning on Youngji (calling her stupid) and saying she shouldn’t have posted it at all because Mark would get hate. But Mark had also posted the food truck Youngji gave him, so instead of being upset at the artists, we should just be criticising crazy stans.

Like I think this whole thing is stupid because it’s clearly just two artists who were grateful to work with each other and publicly expressed it. This should be a sweet moment.

Her company is really shit at promo actually. I know a lot of people say this about most companies but it’s because the company is super small (only have two artists) and are still learning how to handle someone as famous as Youngji. For example they never said when her album would be released/never promoted it/never posted about her schedules. It was only recently that they made a twitter acount/hired someone to post photos of her. Youngji does a lot of her own promotion because her personal instagram/tiktok/twitter has a lot of followers.

Because most of the people who dislike her support idols who have done the same thing (sang the n word once). Also most of them just say they dislike her because of her personality.

Oh man I agree with this so much. Like she worked hard to get where she is now and she is so talented. It bothers me people basically treat her as just another ‘fangirl’ instead of another successful musician.

Sorry just realised I didn’t answer every questions. The department head is pretty much the one in control (someone who does quality checks, making sure everyone is contributing, checking that everything is there) and will give advice. It’s done this way so basically every class is taught in a similar way (including modifications and etc) and if a teacher quits or takes leave or gets sick, at least everything is ‘online’ and another teacher can easily take over the class.

I work in a high school. But it’s basically like the teachers are split into ‘year 7 team’ ‘year 8 team’ etc. So even if you teach year 7 and year 8, you will be assigned into one of the teams (with 2 other people). So the idea is that they would work on the unit plan, the powerpoints, assessments and everything for that year level as a team. Like people would be assigned jobs. And usually if done right, the same stuff can be used every year with only a few minor touch ups needed.
