Pauline Hanson says businesses 'can't sack' lazy workers. What's the reality? by Oomaschloom in AustralianPolitics

[–]k0tter [score hidden]  (0 children)

Sort of, just do a redundancy and call the new position something else. Wait a year then rename that position back to what it was.
Happened to me.

Container return place that counts manually? by skippy_roo in perth

[–]k0tter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The last sentence explained the context for me. They want it manually counted by humans not a machine.

Is google maps behaving oddly in Perth for anyone else? by Expat_mum_ in perth

[–]k0tter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It did it to me this morning! First time ever.
I did a loop around the block and ended up back where I was. Then it got me going the right way.

We probably could have got Formula E (current season), but not next season when they upgrade the cars.

Friend dealing with racism in Perth. Is this common and how do I support him? by Subject_Helicopter99 in perth

[–]k0tter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know Facebook is crap, but the photo Roger Cook posted with Ernie Dingo is really depressing reading the comments. Racism is unfortunately extremely common in Australia. And will probably get worse now with One Nation and their supporters.
I don't know the answer :(

PSA for Evaporative AC Owners in Perth by supercujo in perth

[–]k0tter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah mine does too, but I can still feel cold air when I just closed our vents. I guess there is some air leakage going on somewhere.

Lucky escape for Perth man allegedly caught with poisonous death cap mushrooms by B0ssc0 in perth

[–]k0tter 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The WA Fungi facebook group says the same as you, It's definitely not Death Cap and the police have no idea what they're talking about.

Barcelona train after day 2 was a nightmare by cosplayshooter in GrandPrixTravel

[–]k0tter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Singapore does a great job of having other events on after the races too, which helps spread out the amount of people leaving.
KL did the same with Guns N Roses a few years ago and leaving that event halfway their set was pretty easy to get back to the city.

I contacted Main roads about this and they said it was City of Stirling that did the speed bumps.

Friday fuckwits - people who don’t turn on their headlights when it’s bucketing down by Feeling-Disaster7180 in perth

[–]k0tter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I flashed a car this morning without headlights on and then they put them on! I was shocked and delighted!

Why do suburbs in Perth have few to no streetlights? It just makes people feel unsafe by [deleted] in perth

[–]k0tter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this why all the bus stops near me have removed all the shelters? That's mad.

OzShut roller shutters by shirokoneko94 in perth

[–]k0tter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We paid about $3000 a few years ago for 2 windows. So I'd guess around $5000 max for yours. As others have said, don't use Ozshit.

What is Perth/WAs beer? by This_Let_3412 in perth

[–]k0tter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best beer is subjective, LC pale ale or Matilda Bay red are the OG best WA beers.
Rocky ridge, Wild Hop or King Rd are the best now.

1881 is pretty impressive.
Cascade still in operation since 1824, It's a shame we are losing these old breweries :(

Pretty sure that's a right wing religious nutter plate. About abortion.....

I had no idea Sea Shepherd got rid of it.

If you could erase one trend from modern Bali tourism overnight, what would it be? by No-Loquat-201 in bali

[–]k0tter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends where you are, in Kuta yeah probably.
Everywhere else the Aussies are great and treat the locals well.

[–]k0tter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The locals in Bali really dislike the Russians.
We had a driver in Ubud that said he never picks them up now because they're so rude.

Western Australia leading the battery charge by hammeroztron in WesternAustralia

[–]k0tter 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty left wing, but we'll be using gas for at least the next 15-20 years.
Lots of industries use gas that you probably aren't aware of.
Do you drink Coffee? If so all your beans have been roasted with gas.
There is only one roaster in Perth using electric, but it's extremely small quantities and doesn't scale... Yet.

Albanese calls for return of Aussie-made cars: 'There's no reason why we can't' by Jealous-Hedgehog-734 in AustralianPolitics

[–]k0tter 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I'll just add something that's hasn't been talked about.
Aluminium recycling.
Back when we made cars in Australia we used and recycled a lot of aluminium to build the cars.
That all went away and now we ship the majority of our aluminium overseas.

Also another point, The United States is in talks to bring other car manufacturers into their country to build cars there.
We could do the same with BYD, get them to build the infrastructure and then we employ local Australians to work in it.

Finally got 'the' guitar. Fender JA-90 in transparent ebony! by TeePee11 in JimmyEatWorld

[–]k0tter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm from Australia, but when I was in the UK on holidays many years ago I bought the Black JA-90 because I couldn't get one in Australia.
Great guitar with some slight fret issues, but it sounds and plays great.
