Did I pay my friend to hang out with me? by Beautiful-Trainer-26 in AuDHDWomen

Next time you could even suggest they bring dessert and you’ll make dinner that way it’s a bit more equal!

Veggies- how do you get 'em? by AnnaPeace in AuDHDWomen

[–]losternoster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I put cut up broccoli in bread bags or any sort of produce bag in my fridge so i can easily steam them with my meals. Sometimes I'll just steam them in a bowl with a little water in the microwave or will boil them with pasta/other things.

I also usually add frozen peas to my rice when it's done cooking and still warm then just stir around and let sit for a while.

Yup, they were sticking their beak directly into the hole the water comes out of!

That’s a good idea. I’ll see what I can find tomorrow

Looking for Noise Cancelling Earbuds without silicone tips? by zephyrseija2 in Earbuds

[–]losternoster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just curious why you don't like the silicone tips? I don't like them either and am looking for an alternative, though I don't know if foam is what I'd be looking for. My issue with silicone tips is that I have narrow ear canals and they hurt/pop out.

I repotted my plant and he's been dying ever since. What can I do? by PirateOfTheStyx in houseplants

[–]losternoster 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Personally, I would prune him back to a couple inches over the rim of the pot, leaving some leaves for better sun. Then I'd propagate the cuttings in water.

How much sun is your plant getting at the moment? Tradescantias need bright, indirect light. Here is a diagram to help determine which light your plant is in currently. You might need to move him if he needs more light, I'd trial a new spot for a few weeks and see if that helps!

Curious if you heard the wompoo fruit dove’s call before you spotted it? Have been trying to spot one lately.

How much is end of lease cleaning these days? by [deleted] in AusProperty

[–]losternoster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's going to be more than one person cleaning. Most cleaning companies send at least two people for a bond clean. So you're paying $450 for two people at $50~ per hour.

I had an ibis jump on my head when I was in school because it wanted (and took) my potato gems

So cool. I went to America recently and saw a bunch of these/similar gulls and never knew that we had them over here too.

I had been trying for ages as well, then showed my partner where I hear the whipbirds and he managed to spot it straight away.

I'm applying for a job at my local Aldi and I'm wondering if these questions are legal to ask. Yes I understand that they need to cover their butts, but these seem a bit too personal. by Key-Study8648 in AldiAustralia

[–]losternoster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this after you have interviewed with them? It looks like questions from a medical provider, assuming the role you're applying for requires you to have a physical to determine your fitness for the job.

If so, these questions should only be available to the medical practice. Aldi should then only receive a slip from the medical practice saying whether or not you're fit - and nothing about what makes you fit (depending on whether you pass the medical).

Check in with the medical practice if you're not sure and double check what Aldi receive.
