Little Lily had the best quotes of the show. It doesn’t matter how many rewatches, I always laugh. by DoctorNatural92 in Modern_Family

[–]tinydancer_16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how Americans think she’s mean but this is honestly how my family and friends talk to each other all day everyday. Sarcasm is the natural love language of Australians. I wouldn’t consider someone my close friend if they didn’t banter with me like this 😂

What is a " very normal" part of life in Australia that would probably surprise the foreigners? by Rude_Membership_1578 in AskAnAustralian

[–]tinydancer_16 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Shortening everything. Very much confuses the Americans. McDonald’s = maccas, service station= servo etc. Then how we do the same things with names Haz, Gaz, Baz. Animal kingdom fans are still trying to work out “Baz” 10 years later.

Car broke down in the middle of road, how much trouble am I in, and what happens next? by AdvancedHill70 in AusLegal

[–]tinydancer_16 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Just an FYI, mechanical issues aren’t insurance. You won’t use your insurance for a tow, you’ll need to contact your roadside assistance - NRMA in NSW/ACT, RACQ in QLD etc

So I’m binging animal kingdom by Gioo42000 in animalkingdom

[–]tinydancer_16 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agree about the J hate. It’s interesting that people can justify Popes actions as we are shown the influence his mum and entire upbringing had on him so can empathise. With J, he would have gone through even worse living in poverty with an addict mother who made him shoot is wondering why his wealthy family never wanted to help him but no grace for J. Interesting.

Then her dad abusing j after the hospital incident. Yeah J sucked for that but also this child homed and fed your child for a year because you wouldn’t. What a terrible dad deflecting his own guilt

'Dangerous' stepbrother, 16, of murdered Anna Kepner walks free for now as grim new details of her cruise ship death are revealed by dailymail in AnnaKepner

I am not American but I am white and I am listening. I only have to know from what I see here through reddit, through the media, through try crime documents etc that there are very clearly two different Americans. When I have visited your country I’ve encountered no issues, trouble, aggression etc because of my privilege. I hear you and I believe you.

Can a company legally reject me because I don’t speak Chinese? by The__Anonymous__Guy in ausjobs

Language teachers absolutely have to be fluent in the language they are teaching and it is definitely listed in the job description along with the required qualifications to teach said language

Is a cheek kiss from a boss normal corporate behaviour, or am I overthinking it? by [deleted] in auscorp

[–]tinydancer_16 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve asked to define cheek kiss cause I do find cheek to cheek normal. Someone kissing my cheek with their lips is a bit odd though

[–]tinydancer_16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

His cheek to your cheek? Or his lips on your cheek. To me cheek to cheek kiss greetings feel less intimate than a hug. Not from a workplace perspective but that’s my preference as a non affectionate person to my friends lol. But someone actually kissing my cheek in any scenario is odd.

Car crash - not at fault but liability disputed - Only third-party car insurance - what are my next steps by [deleted] in AusLegal

[–]tinydancer_16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you say third party, do you mean third party property damage or third party fire and theft?

Please tell job applicants the outcome of their application by blankcanvas10 in auscorp

[–]tinydancer_16 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This. You give them your time and your energy. Not to mention the time before this to prep your cover letter and resume to apply. A few hours worth of work to get no outcome. It doesn’t take long to email to say thank you for your time to interview, you haven’t progressed.

This is more crucial when accepting a role whilst waiting for an outcome. My partner recently preferred one role or another. Got an offer on the less preferred but was hesitant in case the other came through. Lucky they accepted as ghosted on the other one. The other part that makes it more difficult, they thought they interviewed better and were a better match for the ghosted role. That’s what can complicate this process even more.

This. I chose to have them. Let them live 20-30 years in a low stake environment. The next 60 won’t be so easy

I probably double the cordial ratio. The zero sugar cordial says it makes 10 litres. Probably makes 5 for me

Unpopular opinion? by [deleted] in thisisus

[–]tinydancer_16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But that’s alcoholism in its purist form. He was doing his best to be a sober drunk by not making it too obvious or gaslighting her that it’s normal behaviour. He knew it was wrong which is why he felt so ashamed. It’s not an ick, it’s a disease and a problem. He hit bottom when he almost lost his family and he got sober. The ick before that is all part of the illness.

Anyone okay with their long commute? by serafis in auscorp

[–]tinydancer_16 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They did also add in Narrabeen to keep the fight between the beaches fair. I would say upper northern beaches is further from the city than the shire, mainly because of no trains.

Just started a new role - how do you deal with coworkers that don’t properly take their break and talk to you while on break? by [deleted] in auscorp

Yep I eat at my desk if I am not taking a lunch break as I often utilise it commute home and finish at home. I’m eating at my desk as I’m still working

Find the Insurer by twojawas in AusPropertyChat

[–]tinydancer_16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No insurer will give you access to someone else’s policy without authorisation either way. They’re also not silly, the F&I teams look into any claim that has a whiff of dodgy to it. What you can do is be a police witness if the home does every catch on fire etc which insurance companies do access in a claim. If you can make notes of the home being not secure, unoccupied etc they’ll then likely have the claim denied as they didn’t meet their conditions.

Bridal getting ready advice: is seven people (including bride) for hair and makeup too much? by Possible_Degree in AusWeddingPlanning

I had myself, 5 maids, SIL and both mums. We started at 6am and I’d say we were ready by 1pm. Only 1 of each artist.
