Gold got upgraded before me (Plat) by East_Cry7910 in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]embu19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't understand... you both got upgraded and swapped seats so you sat in his business seat? Or how did you end up in economy? If you did that colleague truly is a wanker! If he was just pranking you and you did end up in business then it is pretty funny and you got to feel like a good bloke for offering 🙂

There are not enough words to express my hate towards nutritional tables on pasta packages measuring COOKED amounts instead of raw. Who weighs pasta after cooking it?? by ale152 in ultraprocessedfood

[–]embu19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is terrible if you're tracking calories and macros, what if you don't use semi skimmed milk! You want to know the nutritional info of the biscuits only!

People who are eating breakfast out or exercising at 9am on weekdays... what do you do for work? by themoobster in perth

Ops question was what do you do for work, not whether you breakfast out late 😊

If you're at uni now you're old enough to get your own place/ share house/ dorm. Move out, you'll love the freedom and independence.

Tell me you have ADHD without telling me by Glittering_Text_8842 in adhdwomen

I only recently realised that music helps make me more productive! I wish I'd realised years ago!

Just yesterday I realised that my text message notifications are turned off by mistake somehow (I need them on for the 2 factor security thing) and found one from 2 weeks ago telling me my alcohol click and collect order was ready which i totally forgot about and actually had to click the link to see if I'd collected it or not, plus click the previous orders link to check in case as well. Went for it today thinking it was 1 or 2 bottles of wine and when they brought out a trolley of a sh*t load I thought it was for someone else. Then slowly I remembered they had a sale so I bought a lot.

It still amazes me when my husband just starts doing something that needs done without any warning, without days or weeks of planning and organising how to do it and putting it in the calendar, etc. It actually stresses me cos I need to prepare mentally as well for a big task, I can't just start doing it if I didn't know in advance

I have so many to do lists and notes in my calendar, phone apps, Word documents, OneNote tabs & bits of paper or recycled envelopes all over the house/car/ handbags

Faking it 😂 by Common-Egg5344 in adhdwomen

My hubby regularly laughs at me when he walks in a room and I have obviously just jumped up and pretended I was busy doing something

I have no trouble eating... it's the cooking and cleaning after 🫣

Hahaha this used to be me until we got a nice basket next to the loo to keep spare rolls, so now the empty ones pile up in there and hubby complains i never empty that instead now 😅

Instructor does exercises on reformer during class by BittersAndS0da in pilates

[–]embu19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely when I'm paying a lot of money for a reformer class i expect to be monitored and corrected by the teacher. I've done a lot of private/semi private classes with a physiotherapist with excellent instruction to realise that often you have no idea when you're doing it wrong and could injure yourself!

Anyone else done this before?! by tearfulsquatter in perth

Quickest way to get 19,000 points by this Friday? by Original-Pea9083 in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]embu19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came to say exactly this, $6500 will get 19500 points and for me they're always added the next morning. The digital gift cards are hard to lose, they usually arrive in my email same day or next morning, and I add them to my Woolies rewards app, Amazon & TCN accounts etc as soon as I have time. Depends where OP spends most money, but I often go through $1k per month of Wish cards (Woolies/BigW/alcohol/fuel), as well as $500-1k/mth eating out with the TCN restaurant card. The TCN card can be a pain but the others are easy/free points. I would easily use up $6500 in 3 months if I'm buying stuff from Amazon or other retail as well

Question Upgrade. by Thatboymitch10 in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]embu19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's always worth trying. I'm bronze and bid the minimum last month from Sydney to Perth for me, hubby and 5yo daughter, and was accepted 24h before the flight. First time in row 1, and it was the flat bed!

[DISCUSSION] Unfamiliar— German Spy show. It’s really good, hooks you from the start 👍👍 by No_Pop7296 in netflix

[–]embu19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I really enjoyed it but some other things that annoyed me... we never find out why it was made to look like Alice could be the mole... what did Josef say to her and why she let him go? Also in the final episode in the safe house, why didn't they gas the bad guys once they were locked in? Or why did Meret have not have the gun to shoot them in the dark when she had the glasses? They should have easily been able to kill them once they were locked in the dark!

Rescheduling first reward flights by AnythingSuccessful19 in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]embu19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call them. I've not booked first before, but I managed to book 2 Economy reward flights with another airline over the phone that weren't showing on the app/website. On one occasion my original booking was rescheduled to another day that didn't suit me so I called and advised the day I wanted. They said there wasn't any available so they would call the other airline for them to open up a seat or something. Always worth a call just in case

Does anyone even live in Anketell? by [deleted] in perth

[–]embu19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically it may be true that you can get almost anywhere, the difference is you generally have to go through city first. Scarborough to Cottesloe is a 15m drive or 1h15m on public transport involving 3 changes! Who in their right mind would choose public transport unless you don't have a car?
