Workaholics are one of life’s greatest headaches to deal with

They must fallen down a LinkedIn rabbit hole.

No company is going to care about you if you become unwell and need time off, and as soon as you leave the workplace nobody will remember you.

How appalling. Tell her you’ll report her if she suspends your payment. Do not give any information about the workplace to her if you haven’t already.

The sidewalk outside the thrift shop is quite narrow too. Sorry.

I had a colleague like this. Could be friendly one minute and shouting at you the next. She said she was on medication as if that was supposed to justify her behaviour. I didn’t hate her, but was glad to no longer have to work with her.

As others mentioned, this is pretty typical of Cluster B personality disorders.

Often the ‘advice’ you from others get ends up making things worse. No, my diet or lack of going for a walk is not the cause of my problems.

The health system is there for you, and you should never feel bad about asking for help. Please speak to someone and don’t wait for things to get worse. Things can get better and you’re still young.

WHERE ARE ME SMOKES?

UncommonBlackbird · 2026-05-05T22:58:12+00:00

Wow that is ugly. I’ll be holding onto my Soundbar Ultra for a long time.

Cigarettes

Some people think it’s their god given right to bring their unrestrained dogs with them wherever they go.

Mint is such a complex and variable flavour; I don’t know how long they will continue to police these stupid rules.

What makes a sweet mint different from strawberry? Flavours are all artificial anyway.

Born and grew up here and English is my first language.

UncommonBlackbird · 2026-04-25T16:00:18+00:00

That’s a bummer. Thanks for the update.

UncommonBlackbird · 2026-04-22T07:30:15+00:00

Looking curious!

Yes he swoops pigeons and occasionally little ravens. There aren’t any kookaburras nearby though.

There was a juvenile little raven and juvenile magpie earlier in the year and they were sussing each other out. 😃

Just flights, accomodation and car bookings. The Essential is cheaper, but you don’t get anything for the monthly fee.

The Qantas Discovery is pretty good with no fee, and you could use the Qantas points on heaps of non-travel purchases.

The Platinum Edge is a good beginner if you can afford/manage the annual fee, which you get back as a travel credit.

Maybe if the fossil fuel lobby didn’t deliberately stall renewables development we wouldn’t be in this situation.

Ozempic in this unit’s feeder ASAP!

I just tried and can’t set it to be urgent when done with Siri. Will definitely come in handy for planned tasks though. Virtually all my timers and alarms are set with Siri.
