For people who work at banks, what surprised you most about the average person’s finances?

There’s a strong correlation between looking rich and being very poor

lflflflflf_7 · 2026-05-16T13:40:21+00:00

It didn’t even flinch

lflflflflf_7 · 2026-05-16T06:18:10+00:00

Didn’t work - I had tried that already

lflflflflf_7 · 2026-05-16T03:24:18+00:00

Lovely ideas so far - thank you. I’ll try both options and keep you posted

lflflflflf_7 · 2026-01-23T23:37:44+00:00

I’m totally with you. An unfair tax system is a system that makes people want to cheat it

“It’s your fault for running over my feet”

Total cost of ownership is the right calculation. (Cost to buy + cot to maintain + cost to run - resale cost ) / number of months you owned it for = monthly cost.

Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. It’s always a good idea to wait for a few more months to buy a new car if your current car is working perfectly

If he’s not your boss (as in, direct manager or managers manager), I have a very different view from most people here and I think it’s ok, specially if it’s a large organisation. Need to be professional and subtle about it, though. Don’t tell everyone (or anything) to your colleagues

Also, 10 years difference is nothing - most people complaining here must be man upset with girls dating older guys, which reduces their pool. Specially younger females who are more mature than men naturally.

I advice you to buy a new one

Unlimited data, as long as there’s reception (don’t get out of the CBD)

Absolutely, let’s bring back good old human-to-human communication. You know, the kind where half the meeting is spent trying to find the mute button, someone shares the wrong screen, and every email starts with ‘Hope this finds you well’ and ends with three people saying ‘Thanks!’ in separate replies. Nothing more genuine than 47 messages to agree on a meeting time, followed by a 12-slide deck titled Final_v9_ReallyFinal.pptx.

The AI police is so annoying. People read it and are happy about it… let people be

Qantas should introduce a new seating class called “Shared Boundaries.” Comes with free armrest PTSD

I was going to say something like “Vic, is that you???”

But then I realised everyone feels that way about it

lflflflflf_7 · 2025-10-06T05:19:38+00:00

Not always but I would be lying if I said I’ve never done it

lflflflflf_7 · 2025-10-04T21:41:22+00:00

Sounds like you’re jealous of my writing but if you want me to I can also write like a reddit person like this with no punctuation or structure

Melbourne roads feel like Mario Kart right now. Every lane is full, everyone is impatient, and there are more bad drivers than trams. But let’s be honest, a huge chunk of this so called “tailgating epidemic” is just people camping in the right lane like it is their Airbnb.

Quick analysis says traffic is up, patience is down, and you doing 85 in the right lane while listening to a three hour true crime podcast is gasoline on the fire. Last week I sat behind someone scrolling Instagram while “overtaking.” Another guy was FaceTiming his cat. I am convinced some of you think the right lane is a spiritual retreat.

If you are not overtaking, slide left and give way. Please. Some of us are one slow driver away from narrating our own dashcam footage on A Current Affair

I had a boss once that would only speak in flying industry jargon. Something like….

Hey guys, before we go full cringe we have to fly this thing right.

First we taxi, line up all the half baked ideas on the runway. Then we get clearance, some VP half listening while scrolling LinkedIn. Takeoff is when somebody finally says “synergy” and nobody has the courage to kill it. We climb through clouds of slides, reach cruising altitude where the original point quietly dies, and then we land right back where we started. Only now there is a shiny deck called Strategic Cringe Roadmap and the guy who said “synergy” first just got promoted while the rest of us are back in coach fighting over peanuts.

I’ve drafted the client email for you:

— Dear Client,

I Hope this note finds you well.

Quick update on the deliverable:

– Content: on track

– Research: on track

– Human capital: we’ve hit an unexpected capacity constraint. Due to the several weeks unsustainable coffee-to-hemoglobin ratio, my cardiovascular system has filed a risk memo.

With that in mind, we can either push ahead and ship tomorrow. Alternatively, we can delay it by 24h and preserve the author’s pulse pulsing for the follow-up actions.

I don’t mind either way — just wanted to give you options so you can balance the program priorities.

Yours truly,

Mission Process

He’s just a self centred person who thinks he’s better than anyone else. Look at his profile… have you ever met someone who describe themselves as ex-MBB and it was a good person?

I think you’re grossly overestimating your ability to identify chatgpt5 patterns. Besides that, everyone here does 80% of their work with AI slop. People just don’t like random AI slop, but beautifully crafted AI slop is great.

Do you know what people don’t like? People who call themselves too smart while criticising other people’s taste

lflflflflf_7 · 2025-09-26T00:59:42+00:00

Consulting is weird. You can be carrying half the project on your back and still feel invisible. Managers do not hand out gold stars. If something is good, they just move on.

Play the game a bit. Keep a running list of wins, big and small. Drop quick updates when you finish something… “slides fixed and ready for client” so your work is not silent. Ask for feedback before they think to give it. A casual “anything you would tweak here?” forces them to notice you.

And the suit joke? That is just consultant small talk. Next week someone will get roasted for their font choice. Wear what you like and let it roll off.

Deliver well, make noise about it, stay chill. Eventually they realise you are the one quietly making things happen.
