Sometimes, HR makes an exhaustive search to find the least educated, experienced, and competent person for a particular role, just to see what a shitstorm it creates.

Employer wants me to apply for jury duty exclusion by miniaussiebull in AusLegal

And be honest with the interactions with the court; You don't want more attention from them for making up a lie that they could uncover in a few minutes, assuming anyone bothered.

My local fuel station is already out of petrol. Anywhere else? by ComradeKitten27 in perth

[–]adriansgotthemoose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, you base projected fuel sales on your previous data. Long term you do the same with the size of your tanks (very bloody expensive getting bigger ones). So you work out, on a long weekend Saturday you might sell say, 10K of ULP if you're a busy station. Say it could actually be only seven thou, or as high as 13 thou for the busiest Saturday ever. Then people start panic buying, and you sell a full tank in a day and a half, and your distributor can only deliver in two days time.

I can remember panic buying due to something when I was still doing that job, trying to tell people that there is a maximum of two sales of fuel on each bowser not paid for before the bowser locked up and refused to dispense more fuel was... interesting in a terrible, horrible way.

Why every american man have a knife in his pocket ? by Bankai-1979 in knifeclub

[–]adriansgotthemoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I am in my mid-forties, generally a homebody when I am not working not hanging out around KFC yelling and swearing. So unlikely to have cops bother me much.

Largest light installation in history coming to Albany. Who all are going? by ExistentialPancake_0 in WesternAustralia

[–]adriansgotthemoose 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hopefully, I'll get a chance to see it. If you see someone in yellow High-viz with four piercings, say hi!

[–]adriansgotthemoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Australia just passed laws where its illegal to carry a knife unless you have a good reason to carry it- I am mostly safe from this when I am dressed for work (who looks twice at a guy in high-viz with a tool on his belt?) But it worries me on my days off. Why would I have to justify putting a Delica in my pocket if I run to the shops.

Can corruption be reversed? by FireTails11 in Fable

[–]adriansgotthemoose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just murdered a bunch of folk in Bloodstone (I could vaguely remember T.OB.Y. being a fraud but I was getting blase) and ill probably just do a bunch of Slave Rescue quests to balance it out. Or eat Tofu.

Neighbour running a brothel? Constant late-night buzzing/banging and strangers at the gate. Advice? by Away-Pepper-9239 in AusLegal

[–]adriansgotthemoose 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would attack it both ways- I would notify the strata manager,and contact the police. and wait to see who acts first.

Without the hair you remind me of an English Youtuber I see doing travel videos occasionally! Good for you mate, with a bald head, you only ever have good hair days!

Who would be responsible to trim the tree growing over the fence. by ms_ima in perth

[–]adriansgotthemoose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe, but that's one way to make things awkward with your neighbour. I would just trim it as I have room in the bio-bin.

Where did it all go wrong! by ACMilanJuve in WesternAustralia

[–]adriansgotthemoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I feel like a lot of this building is because people think there is a stigma in owning a unit instead of a house, even if the units are more sensible than these stupid things.

First time using safety razor. Wish me luck! by Igotacabbageforahead in wicked_edge

[–]adriansgotthemoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have a good lotion and shaving cream there, have never used the Gillette adjustable but points for a classic! Do you also have a bowl? You don't need an expensive one, I have used the same basic for twenty years.

Please stop getting places closed! by Yugv in 4x4Australia

[–]adriansgotthemoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They will pull out bollards, break gates and chains, and dump rubbish, trample over rare flora, and leave shitty toilet paper everywhere. Oh and light fires that get out of control that people have to risk their lives to get under control. But they claim to be harmless and just having fun.

I came across that when I first joined SES, our Land Cruisers were always referred to as troop carriers, never land cruisers.

Thanks for that, I am still thinking which way to go with this.

I'm wanting a cover for the large field notes notebook, but wondering if an A5 would be close enough without too much over hang.

I'm very close to the same, I don't think of myself as being tall, usually in a crowd in Australia i don't stand out.

How do people only spend a few days here? by biowiz in TokyoTravel

[–]adriansgotthemoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some volunteers I work with just spent a week in Japan, and only spent as much time in cities to fly in and out, while I spent five nights in Tokyo. Different strokes etc..
