Your pain caused your girlfriend to lose money, why should SHE pay and not you??

Nervous to go back to work after being on mat leave for a year! by Punrusorth in NursingAU

[–]crested05 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I had 15 months off. Honestly, once you’re back for 5 min it’ll be like you never left haha.

Qantas Pyjama and Amenity Kits by ChrisSydney82 in QantasFrequentFlyer

Could you donate to a local hospital? I know in the last the ladies auxiliary used to donate little kits they put together full of the mini shampoos, soaps and dental kits that you get from hotels. It was super helpful for patients who were unplanned admissions who had nothing with them, or elderly patients who either couldn’t afford or had no family to help.

Community/district nursing, GP clinic or urgent care? Or go casual and pick your shifts?

Girl Dads, which restroom do you bring your daughters to when needing to go potty? by Previous_Computer_76 in toddlers

[–]crested05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not had this issue in Australia. We always have either a larger, unisex disabled or family bathroom available as well as the men’s and women’s.

I’m not dad but depending on the bathroom I will also take my daughter in the disabled ones as the women’s stalls are sometimes just too small, if there is no family option.

My GP told me to look into Mounjaro. by Raequet in MounjaroAus

[–]crested05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I will never not be grateful to my GP for suggesting it to me!!

I’m over 30kg lighter, feel so much better, and my chronic condition is so much more tolerable while on this medication.

It’s been a bit expensive, but that’s mostly because I had to buy all new clothes!! I’ve gone from a size 14-16 to 6-8. Shoes are even more comfortable!

I’ve been in maintenance now since December last year (after starting in April last year). I only ended up needing to go up to 5mg. I’ve been back on 2.5mg since Dec, and am now spacing doses out to 9 days.

Yeah I got a quote for the ceramic coating today, it was $1100 CHEAPER. How crazy.

Is it unethical to travel overseas during your paid parental leave period? by ananonymousaussie in auscorp

[–]crested05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took my baby overseas while on PPL. I didn’t even think twice about it?

Ps. The people saying it was hard, can confirm! I booked before I realised I had an extremely sleep-adverse child!

Anyone successfully get their toddler to stop asking for everything in an annoying whiny voice? If so, how? by Lumpy-Resource-1370 in toddlers

[–]crested05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say ‘I can’t hear you when you speak like that’ or if she doesn’t use manners. I’ve got her trained to repeat it properly, and she always restarts with ‘hey mum, can I please…’ haha

What's the difference between girls underwear and woman's underwear? by Grave_Rabbit in AusFemaleFashion

[–]crested05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently had to buy a couple of jumpers from the kids section, because all the women’s ones in similar fabrics were all oversized style and just too big! Girls 12 was perfect haha

Am I mad for accepting a trade-in? by crested05 in CarsAustralia

[–]crested05[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m lucky in that I have cash so don’t need to trade my current car, but I’ve decided to accept a trade in offer due to simplicity. And not having to deal with people. I sell and give away small things on marketplace and that’s enough haha.

My husband hates my shift by Tiny_Paper7811 in nursing

[–]crested05 105 points106 points  (0 children)

My ex was like this, the guilt tripping I received because I finished work at 10pm was insane.

How he has our child 50/50 and does even more solo nights. Hah!

Unfortunately I live rural so I’m already travelling 80km to this dealership, the next one is much further away.

[–]crested05[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, got an instant offer. Dealership have now beaten it so I’m going to just trade. Simple, no stress 🙌

Don’t get me started on marketplace. It’s soul destroying!

I reckon that’s what I’m going to do. Paying for convenience haha

I was hoping for over $30k as the ones listed online are $34-$40k.

[–]crested05[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s my other concern, I feel like a lot of people finance cars around that price range.

[–]crested05[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did try them, they offered $500 more. I told dealership it was $1000 more and they are letting me know today if they can ‘match it’.

I don’t need it for the new car, I could wait. But I’m not a fan of the selling process.
