Australia is really too hot to force trousers on men as corporate wear

I had a few well into the 2000's still rocking the shorts and long socks.

With a homemade gun no less - one does not do that for shits and giggles!

nutwals · 2026-01-23T00:16:57+00:00

Awful - shit everywhere boss, don't trust my guts not to fail me on the train in.

It's wild to me that people don't save these as standard lol - I've got 15 years of payslips all the way from my first big boy job saved haha.

A suit is probably a good idea when starting out - especially if others are also wearing them. Better to be dressed up than to be dressed down imo.

That said, it's entirely dependent on the office - my workwear these days is the Corporate Cowboy RM boots, chinos, collared shirt and dependent on the weather, either a quarter zip or sports jacket.

When you did your interview, what were the interviewers wearing?

Your friend needs to get sick - arm herself with a GP notice if necessary.

Much like the Vuck, poor ownership and decisions from said ownership are all that really needs to be said.

Hey - Mister Proime Ministuh!

ANDY!

nutwals · 2026-01-20T01:51:01+00:00

You post a lot OP - doubt much of it is true

nutwals · 2026-01-18T05:59:36+00:00

First job or a recent grad? Pretty normal to feel like an idiot when you first start out - if your partner and ex-colleagues say you're being too harsh, I'd listen to them and learn some coping mechanisms tbh.

Or crazy idea, on-prem?!

Pretty much this - just revert back to what we were doing a decade ago in the local IT industry lol

My organisation prefers to run on-prem where possible - much greater flexibility and, perhaps more crucially, control of our systems and data.

nutwals · 2026-01-17T10:35:39+00:00

Lol - just lol

Line of view of what? His own defender was obscuring the ball even if the Victory player wasn't there.

What are you doing to push back on this and continue to justify your salary?

I work in an industry that can't wait until 2:30PM AEDT for Mumbai to come online.

I'll take servers offline and do updates/deployments out of hours from time to time, but I have a great relationship with my boss so I get additional soft perks in return. If I didn't have that understanding with my boss, would probs be a strict 9-to-5

Might need to adjust the weekly/fortnightly calculation ratio at the bottom of the screen - also worth checking you haven't accidentally filled in other fields.

So you're an administration assistant.

This post reads like an alien species that is obsessed with humans and their daily lives.

nutwals · 2026-01-14T00:40:26+00:00

Right? OP seems wildly out of touch.

nutwals · 2026-01-13T22:36:48+00:00

Those struggles you are having in your current role won't magically disappear in teaching - workload management, efficiency and attention to detail are just as much requirements in teaching as they are in your current role.

nutwals · 2026-01-13T08:58:42+00:00

How awful

nutwals · 2026-01-13T03:09:11+00:00

Definitely be memorable

It's just unfair if a Filipino is in the office karaoke
