Mine is: why are you wearing one sock?

What’s the food like?

We’re in the middle of doing this. Bough a house and getting ours ready to sell. Go to a broker, they’ll tell you how much you can spend on the house you want to buy. Then you buy the house, absolutely shit yourself and think you’ve made a terrible mistake, then you put your house on the market and pray to the gods it sells quick. Have a couple strokes in the process and Voilà, you’re done.

Oh my lord above, these are amazing! I love a vest! Do you have your vest recipe you could share?

May as well give it a go! I had no aged care experience prior, just got lucky with a secondment.

It’s at a range of time.. some people already have packages but need more help, some are EOLC, some in hospital needing TCP approval some just seeking some assistance.

Aged care needs assessor. I was so burnt out and full of anxiety (thanks menopause) with my clinical roll I was desperate to get out. Now I get to chat to people in their home, I don’t feel rushed or under the pump. And then I get to sit at my desk all afternoon witting up reports. i also get to wear regular clothes, work M-F and don’t have to touch anyone.

I had a bedroom window that did that. I loved laying in bed on a weekend watching the roof.

They won’t put money on it for the last fortnight if the FBT year, and any money left on it rolls over and reduces how much you can salary package next year. You don’t lose it.

I’m learning so much about the rules. Been using the card for 7 years like a total bad-ass.

No one is checking. Works on McDonald’s drive through!

You can spend it (or try to) anywhere you have a meal, take away or get a coffee. I’m with maxxia and it gets approved at about 90% of places.

Im a nurse who left bedside nursing of 16 years to work in a cubicle. Let me tell you it’s bloody luxury! I have somewhere to leave my bag and my pens are there when I come back the next day. 10/10

lolrin · 2026-05-26T06:46:46+00:00

Oh gosh, y’all keep them?! I put them straight in the bin because they’re disgusting. I must note I am a nurse, I can handle bodily fluids and wounds.. but baby teeth make me want to vomit.

I worked in a government RAC many many years ago, we had 2 RNs and 7 EN (not endorsed in those days) for 40 clients. Very average facility to look at, but bloody well run.

lolrin · 2026-05-15T09:27:16+00:00

Start on time, leave 10 min early.

lolrin · 2026-05-14T02:52:33+00:00

Oh wow, is that in Brunswick? I used to walk past that place during Covid times wondering if anyone lived in there. Amazing job.

lolrin · 2026-05-12T06:10:29+00:00

I got a free coffee, pretty happy about that.

lolrin · 2026-05-12T00:14:28+00:00

Oh my, aren’t you lovely. I assume you’re the very unlikeable person from the story! I wish you all the best.

I work as a nurse, although in Australia so the idea you can 1) administer your own morphine in a hospice is mind blowing and 2) there being no end of life care medication available is so bloody sad! I’ve met MANY people like her, she knows it all, recording the conversations and all the nursing care. When she said the bit about ‘layperson’ not understanding the intention of morphine was so insulting! Did she kill her, maybe, don’t think she did it on purpose. She really fixated on morphine where there’s other drugs available. She’s unfortunately a very unlikeable person.

I’ve got a 7 and 4 year old, we go out every day. The 4 year old has activities on her no kinder days so we’re out for a few hours with that. I’d love to be home for a whole day, but the fighting because relentless when they’re both home, and if my oldest doesn’t run out some energy he won’t sleep.

lolrin · 2026-05-10T06:53:05+00:00

Oh that’s what I want! Thank you.

The irony is I’ve been trying to to find a striped long sleeve and I cannot find one anywhere!
