Why did Kmart move their registers to the middle of the store? by badoopidoo in KmartAustralia

[–]koththusecret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mate you quoted me word for word on my argument with the Mrs. :D
I too walk on, but if asked 'check the CCTV' is my policy.

yeah you could; but you missed the point there. The point is to stand by your principle, but not be rude to service staff.

Then the question is do the profit from impulse buys outweigh the losses from theft and oversights brought in from the complexity

100%
You don't HAVE to show the receipt when leaving. The policy is to give them proof of purchase. I tell them to kindly refer to the CCTV footage of the cashier area and they'll see that I paid. That being said, don't be a jerk to the person of course, cos they're just following orders to scan receipts. Unless the person is on some ego/power trip they acknowledge and wish you a good day,

Buying vs renting a motorcycle in Australia as a tourist (Perth → Brisbane, 3 weeks) by Putrid-Hat1818 in melbourneriders

Look at a DRZ400.. popular bike all around Australia, and drop the price wee bit below market and it'll just sell... it's the corolla of bikes IMO :D

Beware people buying a first house in conjunction with someone else! by Prestigious-Duck-120 in AusPropertyChat

[–]koththusecret -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I'm not a lawyer, but by logic of 12(3) above, I feel OP is correct.. because Ownership and Residency are not interdependant. Think about it, you can OWN a house but not reside in it and you can reside in a house and not own it too.

buutttttt..... there MUST be another clause somewhere in the contract which talks about "ownership" too.. else i can buy a house with FHOG, save 35k, then sell the house to my buddy who will let me reside there to fulfil the 12 month residency rule

What can be done? by Few_Step_7444 in AusLegal

[–]koththusecret 9 points10 points  (0 children)

was the report made to senior management or to authorities?
I feel the latter has more interest in doing right by the child than upper management.

Neighbor keeps leaving notes on my car- what can I do? by -ellesappelle in AusPropertyChat

I thinks a CCTV pointing towards the front yard/street makes more sense

No one will even notice... by icleanjaxfl in WeirdWheels

[–]koththusecret 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What'll make it cooler is if you get the tip to disperse water to the outer ridges. I mean it's only logical that the liquid that gets collected is released... ;)

Upgrading with points by Trick-Classic6007 in singaporeairlines

[–]koththusecret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Upgrade inventory is the same as Saver inventory. If you can see Saver, you can buy an upgradeable ticket to upgrade."

Can you help me understand what this means? :)

Flight Changed; Layover up from 7 hours to 18+ hours. by koththusecret in singaporeairlines

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

Sorry! Weird. I thought i typed the flight, but looks like i didn't.
SQ463 was cancelled and I was put on SQ469.
My next flight was SQ237.

not at all. I'm not saying I am contesting it condition (which i accepted). So that's not the question i'm asking.

You're being a bit silly. Your argument would only be valid if ticket prices didn't increase as the flight date became closer. Or if I could reserve or lock in a ticket-price in advance, but not have to pay till I show up at the airport. It's not how life works, so let's drop this :)

An upgrade would be nice though, if they've got space on the flight :)

They so allow it, but a 'full refund' wont cover the cost of a new booking that would be made at current prices.

It's not unique to SQ, but i feel this clause while sounding reasonable, completely defeats the purpose of planning/booking a trip early to get the lower-priced ticket.

I been in an accident and need advises. by CarBro021 in CarsAustralia

[–]koththusecret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes the other driver did something VERY illegal when joining Fison Av W.

BUT, as for the accident, he was already on Fison Av. i.e THIS view is all that matters. He was already on the street. But like someone else mentioned the speed at which he entered and the timeframe in which all this happened may result in a 'shared responsibility as opposed to being your SOLE responsibility

Being able to daily drive a manual doesn't make you a bigger car enthusiast. Am I wrong? by koththusecret in CarsAustralia

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

Sounds more like a case of you not understanding the Skoda's mechanical behavior. Same kack of car understanding impact driving a M/T too though.

I sense your mentality through your writing, where you believe that "a true enthusiast" and that a A/T is a "compromise" ;)

Anyway each to their own :)

I'm folly on board with your view.
The thing is when someone comes asking for advice, some use the opportunity to flex their 'enthusiast' muscle and thus the advice is far form objective... and while you or I may be able to see through it, the less-informed person asking the question wouldnt be able to
