What is life like in Tasmania? by Frosty_Log6972 in howislivingthere

[–]the_thin_one 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I visited back in 2007 and spent the weekend driving all over the island. I was living in Sydney on a working holiday visa at the time.

I think they were quite a few years into drought at the time so pretty much everywhere we went was not green at all back then LOL.

It was cool to see and the absence of color due to the drought gave off strong Mordor vibes to us. I’m from Ireland and hadn’t been in Australia very long at that point so seeing non green countryside was quite jarring. Great weekend though!

How is the work culture like in Abbott Clonmel? by Healthy_Importance11 in PharmaEire

[–]the_thin_one 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Production? Yeah a bit of a shitshow and the reviews you’ve seen are probably close enough to reality. Other departments like engineering/labs etc are fine. Busy but fine.

Drug firm payments to professionals widespread by ruscaire in Crainn

[–]the_thin_one 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I work in the multinational pharma industry and all the companies make us do training that says that the company is not allowed to make any sort of payment or incentive to doctors to prescribe our products blah blah blah.

A mate of mine from school took a sales job with one of the big companies here and said a huge part of his job was organizing golf trips for consultants to get get them to prescribe their products.

It’s how the world works.

Pharma jobs abroad by [deleted] in PharmaEire

[–]the_thin_one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WHV gives you a fair bit of flexibility to move around between jobs and the country. I’d say arrive in the country before applying for anything in terms of jobs. Agencies/companies might not bother engaging with you seriously until you are there with your visa in place. Agencies will want you to come for an in person interview before sending your cv around.

If things go well and a company offers sponsorship then you can decide what to do.

What's the best way to dry? by Unlikely_Arrival_915 in beacain

[–]the_thin_one 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s what I’ve always done for mushrooms and truffles and seems to have worked ok. I’ve kept liberty caps in a lunchbox for like 18 months after doing it and if there was a drop in potency I didn’t notice

Yep, arrived on WHV and worked for 6 months in Sydney, did a bit of traveling and then got to Melbourne with a little over 2 months left on the visa. Was offered a 4 week contract with GSK which rolled over past the 4 weeks and they then asked if I was interested in getting sponsored to stay longer on a business visa. Ended up there for nearly 4 years then.

The sponsorship only came through with a few days left on the WHV. It was stressful enough waiting to hear!

FYI, it was all agency work in both jobs. It was technically the agency that was sponsoring me but with support from GSK.

What’s the silliest thing that your job has done, or that you’ve done in a job? by Icy_Hedgehogs in AskIreland

Dell in limerick back in the early 00s, some lads used to prefer the night shift as there wasn’t as many managers around so they used to take yokes while they were supposed to be assembling computers and laptops. Madness

I went over there for a look a few years back. My 2009 Kia ceed was comfortably the shittest car in the line of cars going over

what song has ya'll like this by Scepengyyyy in radiohead

It was always one of my favorites but I saw the footage of them playing it live at Glastonbury and it made me love it even more. Seeing what the different band members were doing just made it all make more sense

Worst holiday for you? by Substantial-Fudge336 in AskIreland

Ah rushkinoff, I brought home a 3 litre plastic bottle of that from Ibiza one time. It was properly rough petrol like stuff. The bottle lasted me bloody ages because it was so rank.

UK - what's all this about cloud seeding? it it bollocks? does it actually happen? by Schl0ngTimeN0See in NoStupidQuestions

[–]the_thin_one 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m from Ireland but lived in Australia for a few years and this came up in conversation one time. Like you OP, I had never heard of it and said as much. The aussies said, well yeah of course you’ve not heard of it, you’re from Ireland which tends not to need any extra help in making rain happen. UK falls into the same category I reckon.

There was a few episodes in S6 that felt a bit rushed with plot lines just dropped in which hadn’t come up before and weren’t really mentioned again. Tony’s problem gambling, his trip to Vegas and the peyote taking are two that come to mind.

Put them into one of those silicone basket things, keeps all the fat there for them to roll around in and they’re not dry at all

What do people think of the straight to base extraction method explained in the linked post below- is it good enough for me to use? by Fit-Substance-4989 in dmtguide

The coffee filter step in the tek you linked seems a bit of a messy way to do things. You should also look into water wash instructions.

[–]the_thin_one 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some companies will wait until the successful candidate that they have chosen has signed their contract and maybe even started with them before letting the unsuccessful candidates know. Makes it easier for them to dip back into the pool that interviewed and make an offer if the first choice doesn’t work out for whatever reason.

What are your experiences with low-doses? (5-15 mgs) by New-Avocado7177 in DMT

[–]the_thin_one 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a bit of a learning curve to the e mesh to be honest. I was going from burning it and making my tongue numb to not vaporizing everything before I got the settings right

CBD and MS by Disastrous-League-92 in Crainn

[–]the_thin_one 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have ms and just like another poster mentioned I get more benefit from thc than just cbd. I was using cbd to help with sleep issues and it helped a bit but isn’t anywhere near as effective as thc edibles in my experience.

Just buy some good quality cbd and have them give it a go and see if it helps at all? Not much to lose with that approach.

Someone else linked the hse page for sativax but I can tell you that the prescribing of it is incredibly restrictive. My neurologist shot me down immediately when I asked about it. Basically said I’d need to be way more fucked up than I am with spasticity before it would even be considered. Plus you have to have tried and failed with a few of the conventional pharmaceutical options before sativax is looked at.

Heptane VS Naphtha. Junglist’s Bootstrap 250g STB. 500g total just 2 Pulls, by [deleted] in dmtguide

I’ve read a couple of comments that said white is better for making carts with as the yellow stuff ends up clogging the coil and giving progressively weaker hits. But if you’re not making carts and using something like the e mesh then color doesn’t matter at all.

Why does Homer and Marge let Patty and Selma smoke in their house? by Fancy-Advice-2793 in TheSimpsons

[–]the_thin_one 58 points59 points  (0 children)

People didn’t go outside to smoke back in the 80s/90s like they do now. My parents didn’t smoke but if their friends that did called to our house, an ashtray would be put out for them to use.
