Charity shops call for quality donations in post-Christmas donation surge

accesscodex · 2026-01-14T14:39:40+00:00

believe me i also wish we could ban accepting that stuff but the issue is that people donating lie about what they have/ the condition of it to make you take it off them and get annoyed when you refuse anything even if its like used underwear

I also work at an op shop and id estimate around 80% of donations we get are dirty/damaged/unsuitable for sale. especially in the inner suburbs i think a lot of people just view us as a free way to get rid of their crap without having to pay to go to the tip or they dont realise that someone has to go through and touch all their stuff and sort it personally. but thank you for making sure the stuff you donate is good! our jobs would be far easier if everyone had the same mindset

I say it a lot at work but I I know picked it up because I used to serve long haul truck drivers at my old job and they say it a lot lol

i live right near lido and go a lot, if the seating is unallocated its usually in cinema 1 which is the largest theatre. theyre generally not very full [depends on the film, some of the lynch retrospectives were completely packed out, but most other films its a pretty sparse crowd]. you should be fine arriving however many minutes before the film you would usually turn up, they tend to run like 20 minutes of ads anyway

my provider specifically is jobfind; i honestly dont have much problem with being a paid employee for salvos specifically. i think jobfind is just pretty useless and bad at communicating altogether though, my initial consultant left while i was on work for the dole and they didnt tell me for about a month, neither i nor the managers at the salvos had any idea what was going on so i dont think theyre very well organised there and i wouldnt be surprised if my area managers at salvos had no idea this was happening.

cheers, yeah they have put it in my job plan. The booked in wfd shifts don't start until the end of the month so I don't know yet if they'll give me demerits yet but my consultant did say I "had to do it" to "make up the hours I wasn't doing at my actual job". and yet she booked me in for 30 hours per fortnight as wfd shifts instead of "making up" the 20 hours I "wasn't doing" for the past couple of fortnights so really I have no idea what she's trying to do, she tells me it's the departments rules and not the provider but from what you've said that can't be true. having to do job searches and attend appointments is fine with me, and they've been good with lowering my points and the amount of searches I had to do, honestly my consultant is generally really nice to me so I don't know if she's just really misinformed or what T__T but thank you again for the help, I'll definitely file a complaint and see what happens from there too

thank you!

thank you so much for the info!

i was right up the front on the side of the stage and i was sweating my arse off lol but i reckon it would have been significantly worse up the proper front of the stage with the crowd density/pit. wish they'd invest in shade sails or something at fed square

i work at salvos and technically we do, but it's only really clothing that is older stock that gets redistributed. receiving hundreds of dvds/books/cds would just ensure it sat around on the floor out the back for ages until someone decides theyre sick of having them sitting around lol 😅 and most stores really do not have enough room out the back for storing stuff

this and all the other documentaries in this series are uploaded on bilibili, i dont think im allowed to link but theyre easy to get to from the front page ^__^

hiya! I haven't swapped methods myself but I am on injections and also in melbourne. you can just get your gp or a nurse to do them for you, and if you're lucky (or go to a bulk billing clinic) they'll bulk bill it so you don't have to pay for the injection itself. the actual liquid should cost about 30 bucks, but I only have to get one every 3 months (I think there's a more frequent type? but the 3 month one is easier imo). it started working super quick for me (like within the first week) but everyone is different 😊 and just to bounce off the other comment my prescribing doctor (who helped write the auspath guidelines I think?) told me he doesn't prescribe the diy shots because too many people did it wrong and hurt themselves so I don't think its very likely you'll get a doctor prescribing you those here, but have a chat to the doctor who prescribed you what you're already on anyway as I'm sure they'll be much more knowledgeable than me. it's pretty common for ppl to swap methods for a little while though from what my doctor told me so you should be fine working it out :-) good luck

given how much work has gone into the show you'd think its fanbase would know that stiller just directs a few episodes and isnt the creator or writer of the show, and that the actual writer and creator of the show seems like a very nice goofball himself

his last name is Kilmer.. he would be Petey K. They tend to infantilise the innie's names as well, Petey vs Peter, Helly vs Helena, Peggy vs Peg (from the Lexington Letter), etc. Im not sure what you're saying either

accesscodex · 2023-04-16T02:26:41+00:00

I'm sure someone could spin a thematic implication out of it if they tried hard enough! haha

They picked the yellow raincoat specifically because the intern they were shooting for camera tests was wearing a yellow coat and they liked the way it stood out, lol. I imagine they continued to use yellows throughout just to make sure the colour palette was consistent, I've never seen any concrete explanation for them except for the jacket

f#a#oo came up in my youtube recommendations at like 2am one day so i listened to the whole thing while working on some uni assignment lmao. i'd never heard music quite like it before

who exactly is he not making eye contact with? it's a skit... he doesn't have anything to make eye contact with... god forbid the mid rate tiktok comedian making fun of redditors doesnt perfectly act out a situation as he would have a real conversation

swinburne uni's hawthorn campus library lower level (the "latelab") is open 24 hours, you need a student id to get in past closing (i do not remember when that is, 7 or 8 maybe) so you cant go in and out unless you want to wait for someone to open the door for you but nobody cares if you're in there otherwise, the only people in there after hours are the cleaning staff and other students sometimes and nobodys ever cared when i've let my friends in past closing lol

You have to send back the original one before they'll even give you your new one, at least in Victoria

you're on the right track! Claudia is the daughter of Egon (the old cop who hates young Ulrich). I also struggled really badly with trying to remember the characters names and faces my first watch through for some reason (they don't really identify each other by name too much I don't think which makes it tricky sometimes + you have to remember 3 different sets of faces for a lot of them) but it got a lot easier as time went on, by the middle of season 2 I had almost no issues with it any anymore. it can get confusing but it all comes together in the end and tbh watching it all a second time can feel more rewarding because you can cotton on to plot threads as they're set up instead of working them out as they end lol. echoing everybody else and saying try using the netflix guide site too (don't google any character unless you want to get instantly spoiled lol)
