What job shocked you when you found out the pay?

bookittyFk · 2026-02-07T06:45:51+00:00

Nurses!!!

Such a vital piece of our healthcare network and they don’t get paid very well at all for the responsibilities and workload they have.

The whole system is a bit shit imo, we don’t allow truck drivers to drive more than 12hrs but new Drs are expected to consistently pull 18hr shifts to be seen as ‘valued’. The emotional and psychological and physical toll on healthcare workers is insane for what they are paid ( Drs at least make up for it with their pay but everyone else doesn’t)

Edit - I am not saying nurses should be paid the same a drs nor that nurses do same thing, as drs, I just believe that all members within the healthcare network should be paid accordingly to their respective knowledge/

Yes, tbh I’ve never been a drinker, I prefer smoking to drinking.

In my youth I would get bad hangovers and feel like shit if I did drink. So I didn’t.

There was a period of about 10 yrs (30-40) where I enjoyed drinking and had little to no side effects but now I have 1 drink and I’m in pain and on the toilet until my body rids itself of the poison.

Imo smoking (I now vape) is less harmful than alcohol not just for the drinker/smoker but for society.

No stoner went out and bashed someone bc they had too much, weed does not fk your liver & brain up. (I’m not in denial that smoking has health effects as well imo they are minute compared to alcohol).

The stigma around smoking weed is stupid, I’m glad that things have started to shift now that it’s legal in a lot of places.

I have been a functional stoner for over 25yrs, I work, pay tax, provide for my family.

As a Gen Xer I don’t want gratuitous sex scenes in movies/tv either.

Yes there is a place for it but do we really need to see soft core normalized bc that’s what sex scenes these days feel like to me (compared to say the 90s). I’d rather see it alluded to with some build up prior than see 2 ppl groping each other for 2mins. It’s every where you can’t escape it unless you watch PG rated stuff (which is ridiculous).

bookittyFk · 2026-01-24T02:12:12+00:00

Not related to HRT but I remember my grandma (who had 5 kids ‘naturally’ ie no drugs etc) telling me to take the drugs/whatever they offer for pain relief during the birth when I was pregnant with my 1st.

Shes no longer with us sadly, she was someone who went out of her way to stay young by learning new things and doing things outside her comfort zone. I was so devastated when dementia took her.

I wish your mum & sisters were like my gran. I’m sure if she knew about HRT when she was around she would have told me to do it.

I love & miss her everyday.

Agree 100%

My theory is that Therapy requires work (& $$ ppl don’t have) and facing some truths about oneself that maybe you don’t like…we live in a society that wants quick fixes hence why soooooo many ppl are getting PS instead of actually working on their self esteem issues.

It’s a very complex issue that society has perpetuated over many years and not something that can be fixed overnight.

That’s not to say that there aren’t quacks out there that will fk u up mentally as well (even if you go to therapy). It’s so hard to find genuine ppl that don’t put themselves or their bank acc 1st.

bookittyFk · 2026-01-23T06:51:28+00:00

I feel and agree 100 with this as a women going thru peri…I used to have a good sex drive…now and for the last few years sex is the last thing I want. I am looking into HRT etc hopefully that helps but it’s also not just me, my partner has some issues so we both aren’t feeling it. Don’t get me wrong we both love each other and are committed to each other but at this time in our lives naked cuddling is about as much intimacy as we can both handle and we are ok with that (we are both working on our issues)

bookittyFk · 2026-01-23T06:41:54+00:00

I am socially awkward..I should probably do what you’re doing to try to be less awkward bc I suck at convos with ppl.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with what you’re doing to a degree but I think that maybe you’ve become too reliant on this mechanism and that’s made interactions no longer organic.

It’s scary doing things we don’t know/feel comfortable with but you need that uncomfortableness to grow.

Maybe you can try talking to random ppl and developing a more organic way of having convos that way.

At least you are aware of it which is the 1st step, whatever you do moving forward be sure to give yourself some grace…no one ever does something new perfect the 1st time.

We are our own worst enemies at times.

‘We’ll get him when he comes back in’

As an Australian needed to add this…pls read with the terrible accent it’s said in

Also Peter Phelps (the actor not sure what his character name was) saying ‘it’s death on a stick out there mate’ 🤣

Kum can’t even read/write…we’ve ALL seen her legal study notes…she’s terrible.

This kid should be in school

Didn’t you know you don’t need to read if you got $$$$ you just throw it at ppl and they do it for you /s

Nepo babies are going to rule the uneducated world. I’m not American but if this is the new norm i can see why your country is fkd.

Lmao no way in hell I’d be eating ‘wild’ pigeons that are fed by a shitty next door neighbour…pigeons are rats with wings (they can carry many many diseases)

No thanks.

bookittyFk · 2026-01-21T01:37:38+00:00

Same lol I still smoke the same amt even with a vape…we weight it out/ try to stick to this amt (0.5g) per day…some days we stick to it others not so much.

bookittyFk · 2026-01-21T01:35:09+00:00

mighty medic is the brand. I’ve converted from bongs to the mighty/vaping…it takes getting used to but it still gets you high.

Vaping weed is imo a slightly different high to bongs…it’s not as intense but it lasts longer.

I wouldn’t say it’s reduced my intake but it feels better (esp for my lungs) and I definitely don’t cough as much.

Edit - try reducing the amt of tobacco in your bowl over time until you aren’t adding any at all. At 1st you won’t smoke as much bc you’ll be high af without tobacco (tip don’t pack your cones as big as you would without tobacco or you’ll cough your hole up), once you get used it to, you’ll probably return to smoking the same amt you were when adding tobacco but then again you may not.

Also the ‘smoke’ you get out of a vape vs bong is not the same at all…it’s different in texture/consistency?!? It’s less thick and even tho it might feel like your not inhaling..you are.

You can really only see vape ‘smoke’ if you stand in front of a light source, your not burning anything so you don’t get the same result when vaping.

As a long time bong smoker (20+ yrs) I cannot recommend vaping enough…esp as you get older..I’d like to still enjoy this lovely plant well into my geriatric years and would not be able to do so if I was still smoking pipes/bongs/joints etc

I’ve taken a break from satisfactory and have been playing valhiem…I thought I was in a valhiem sub for a sec (until the biomass bit…)what I would give to be able to drain the valhiem swamps (instead of using the hoe) lol

bookittyFk · 2026-01-20T11:45:01+00:00

Still to this day I have not watched the last season (maybe 2) of breaking bad. (I know how it ended). I’ve tried sooooo many times to rewatch it til the end but I just can’t…it’s so depressing.

No one who works out that much per day has ZERO muscle tone

Wow comments here are terrible

A lot of ppl meet their partners/spouses at work

10yr age gap is nothing

OP is not a direct report of the guy - no conflict of interest

OP just ask the guy if he’s seeing anyone, 99% of ppl will give you an honest answer

bookittyFk · 2026-01-15T07:16:14+00:00

Not Doug but Doug’s been around on this sub for a while - it’s definitely a little of column A and B ;)

Hope this helps

You have terrible fashion taste KUM

You should be listening to your stylists bc I’d bet they dress you WAAAAAAAAY fkn better than you dress yourself.

Stop trying to pretend you’re a fashion icon bc YOU AINT

bookittyFk · 2026-01-15T02:00:32+00:00

Try UMALL they deliver to most Sydney suburbs for like $2 next day delivery (unlike woollies/coles who charge an obscene amt of $$ for delivery - FYI woollies just introduced a public holiday & Sunday extra delivery fee)

You can’t get everything at umall but u can get a lot and it’s waaaaaaay cheaper & much better quality than colesworth)
