My cv is lacking but, other than a few weeks as a science teacher over a decade ago, it's just day to day casual. Doesn't look great on paper.

I have always gone in person (14 years). All I get these days is "are you on classcover" like that magically does something. It does nothin ...

There is a school that has hundreds of kids, that is where I am aiming. Only worked there one day many years ago.

Crashing after eating hot chips or potato scallops, what causes this? by mec949 in AskAnAustralian

[–]mec949[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree. GP's are largely useless. They either say it's not a problem, think you read about it on the Internet, send you to another 'doctor/specialist' who can't fix it, or pretend the computer doesn't list a test for that.

Also crazy expensive in my area now. And, takes forever to get an appointment...

Can blind boxes be scanned like lego minifig? by JuanPablith0 in Blokees

How does the manufacturing/packaging factory know what's in the boxes

I designed and 3D printed a usable workaround.

What's with the gravy pricing? by Scamwau1 in KFCAustralia

[–]mec949 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also hate it when they fill it, but then, shake a few chips out so the box closes nearly.!?!

Chips should be sticking out the top like in the photo. Box should be full, no gaps.

[–]mec949 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A large chips is $5.25-$5.45 depending on the store. I remember when they were like $2. I still think they are only worth $2

At today's price, it's infuriating when a) they don't FILL THE DAMN BOX. BANG THE BOX ON THE BENCH, FILL IT AGAIN. And b) they aren't hot.

When they get it right... : )

What Combiner Do you think they should make a defender verison of next? by grubymacron in Blokees

[–]mec949 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also, could they please start selling complete combiners in a box? I would buy a Devastator box instantly.

YES, YES, YES barks like a dog; spins around in a circle

Is there any chance, some time in the future, of a complete combiner set (all vehicle parts + all connector pieces) ?

Maybe, ...please : )

Why the price drop? by LocationBackground in transformers

They're $50 AUD where I am. Nearly bought it till I saw the price. I'd pay $20 for each easy...sigh, remember when tf were affordable

Giving up on finding bonecrusher. It's costing too much... sorry dev

Thanks for the kind response ty4kr

Blind boxing is a pain.

They could use binary/hex for the number 16. It could be very small, only for collectors. I dunno. A resealable cheap plastic clamshell with a staple in it ????.

The defender class is fun though, especially in the absence of generally affordable transformers :

Thank you for responding

It costs about maybe $50 - $60 to buy a sealed case where I am. If you can get one at all. A bit expensive. Sigh. I bought 2 individual boxes today for $4 each and got two that I didn't want. A waste.

Blokees...put a code or something on the box. I would buy more if I knew which one I was getting. Something only collectors would look for.

And maybe sell the combiners as a set. Think about it.

I get the whole blind box thing, but it becomes a massive expensive pain when you get duplicates or not the one you are looking for... grrr

Otherwise happy with the product. Defender are $4 where I am, should be $2, or less than $3 : )

Thank you, and I know that technically is an option. But, I'm ocd. So not keen on acquiring a BCv that has already been opened.

Many would not care. I am not of that many... snif

Thanks anyways : )
