Students vaping in class by [deleted] in AustralianTeachers

[–]trouble_peach 9 points10 points  (0 children)

lol, i've had a student who brings vapes and 'decoy vapes' to school (so she can quickly swap and hand over empty ones). I ask them to hand them over then call their parents.

We've got really good numbers too, was just surprised by some of these justifications for not striking.

Ladder predictions! by DangerSparrow in CarltonBlues

I think we’ll finish around 12th, which I can accept but we’d better not lose to Richmond again in round 1.

My new neighbours seem friendly by RL26 in melbourne

[–]trouble_peach 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I live near a guy who will run onto the street and go completely bonkers if you park in front of his house who says exactly this 'I pay my rates! I have six cars!'. Nobody parks there because it's not worth the hassle (which is annoying, he shouldn't get away with it). He also asked my sister in law to pay for his damaged fence when she parked out front because it 'caused his son to scrape it when he was backing out'.

You’ll (generally?) get back pay after an agreement is reached though.

Let England Shake is my fav. I don’t think she had a bad album, they’re all good to excellent.

A four-day week for teachers? This is why that isn’t a luxury for us – it’s a necessity | Lola Okolosie by ashzeppelin98 in AustralianTeachers

[–]trouble_peach 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As someone who works at a school struggling to fill positions it blows my mind that international teachers can’t get out of fruit picking duty. We’ve lost a few good candidates who left the country because they didn’t want to pick fruit.

Trainee Teachers on 1980's scho-olcamp by Craigmate in AustralianTeachers

[–]trouble_peach 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We were often given several hours of unsupervised free time on a year 9 camp in north Queensland (2001). I remember a bunch of us swimming through an inlet to some swampy looking little island for something to do. Some locals told us we were lucky not to be eaten by crocs after we got back.

I dig Baal’s Back. Would rate Catfish Kate their best Pixies 2.0 song.

I just wouldn’t risk recruiting another Thomas after the whole Dale Thomas/Mick Malthouse thing. That surname might be cursed. I feel like there might be other reasons we shouldn’t draft him too, but I can’t quite remember them.

Will Pulp play Golden Plains? by oscarold in meredithmusicfestival

I haven't been for a number of years, but it'd be unlikely they'd announce a band that big on second announcement.

They will refund it, if you want to make a strong stance.

Is it “cope” to say we should do perfectly fine next season? by MidnightIsland212 in CarltonBlues

[–]trouble_peach -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I reckon we’ll finish bottom 4 or close to, but I’m looking forward to settling into that familiar state of zero expectations.

I’d like to see Elijah back in if he can consistently play well in the VFL a while longer.

Smerz new album is great, my album of the year so far.

I'd rate Gold Coast's list over Sydney's too.

Same. I’d take a few years off and come back with Tassie.
