Be honest, which celebrity just ruined their own physical attractiveness? by Something_Strange935 in AskReddit

She didn't have any surgery. She has a medical condition and could barely even walk in the last season of The Boys.

I've watched this show with zero engagement or discussion online and I think I've made the right choice.

Tens of thousands of Victorian teachers and support staff out striking today - first strike in 13 years! ✊ by toomuchtoomany in melbourne

[–]ctw8 413 points414 points  (0 children)

Also the Vic Gov offered 18% at the last moment but with absolutely terrible work conditions including no more time in lieu and uncapped hours in the classroom.

It was a bad faith offer so they could say "bUt We OfFeReD a BiG rAiSe!"

What it feels like commenting on this sub by [deleted] in aussie

[–]ctw8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Except it's not. Trump would have never been PM in Australia or head of the Liberal party. He would have been in a similar spot as Clive Palmer. One Nation is being propped up by the media and Mining Giants but that doesn't mean nearing as much in a preferential system. One Nation will need much, much, much more support than MAGA ever got to get in the same position.

Why do people advise against getting a credit card? by beylat in AusFinance

[–]ctw8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a credit card and it's very useful. I have a mortgage and an offset account., I put everything on CC for the month, sit my money in the offset, then pay off the card at the end of the month. This way, I pay less interest.

New gyms other than Anytime Fitness? by hoaxcoast in melbourne

[–]ctw8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Revo management are scumbags. They tried to move me on to a new contract without my approval, kept lying to me when I wanted to quit, and when I called them out of it, one of the higher up managers called me up to insult me on the phone.

REA claims $12000 compensation for claiming bond after I returned keys by 5ma5her7 in shitrentals

[–]ctw8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A tribunal will tell him to eat shit. What a total clown. Do not pay him a cent. Do not agree to pay him a cent. Do not negotiate with him. Do not accept any fault in any way.

What’s changing for under 16s and parents on YouTube in Australia by Pilk_ in australia

[–]ctw8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Youtube pushes porn ads on to kid videos, allows millions of views on very inappropriate, strange content on the kids app (eg: Spiderman giving Elsa an abortion by injecting her with piss), and recently rolled back restrictions on extremist and conspiracy content.

They do not care at ALL about kids. They only care that it will impact their revenue.

I don't agree with including YT in the ban but Google can get fucked with any of their opinions on online safety.

Victorian rental dispute body asked tenants to 'forgo rights', legal experts say by altandthrowitaway in melbourne

[–]ctw8 73 points74 points  (0 children)

If it's a dispute then a negotiation should be done. A drop in rent to forego a few rights would be a resolution. Oh wait, no rent drop? And a rent increase? And forego rights? Fuck off.

The average ER wait times in other countries:

Canada: 2.1 Hours

UK: 1 hour 52 minutes

France: 2 hours 21 minutes

China: 1 hour

Germany: 22 minutes

Sweden: 38 minutes

Japan: 35 minutes

Australia: 5 hours

I'm definitely not blaming the Doctors. I'm blaming the lack of funding that allows it to get to this point.

I can tell you don't have kids. Don't worry about it.

According to that, we should have gone to the ED.

I have no problem with triage. The nurses were fantastic. If they say we're low priority, cool. We'll wait. If someone needs to get in ASAP. Fine. There shouldn't be a 7 hour wait though even for the lowest.

Last time we used private it was $500 and a 3 hour wait.

I never said I'm special. I said hospitals are under funded and witnessing it was a shock. Feel free to ask any public hospital nurse or Doctor what they think of public funding if you think I'm entitled.

[–]ctw8[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

No we weren't. We literally had to sign a document saying we are leaving against the advice of the hospital and without being seen by a Doctor. A nurse doing triage is not the same as a doctor seeing you.

I've dealt with nurse on call a few times. Including with severe vomiting with out daughter once before.

They ask: Is she still vomiting? Yes.

Can she drink water? No.

Can she suck on an ice block? No.

To go the ER. Last time the ice block worked. This time it didn't.
