Recruiter couldn’t get hold of one of my references, so I messaged him and he’s calling her back.
One reference check is done and went really well. Thank you to the unnamed user that stuck their neck out for me ❤️
I was freaking out about nothing. So on edge waiting to start my job. Keep expecting something to go wrong.
Everything is fine.
Driving in the SUV i spotted 2 identical Mazda CX5’s just in slightly different colours parked next to each other. A snide thought forms in my head about everyone buying the same cars till I spot the exact same car (colour included) as my own driving the opposite direction closely followed by a green one, both same models as mine. Couldnt help but laugh and smugly repeat the comment back to myself.
Little boxes, little boxes…
I thought I had a nasty patch of dry skin on the back of my hand, but it turned out to be dried remnants of the icing from my morning tea.

Time to go to Aldi, and grab an “Adult Hobby” kit they have on special.
I’m not sure I want to know what they are. Are we talking leather and chains, or maybe moulding kits for intimate areas?
The Joy of Taxes, Mortgages for Dummies, & Exercise or you’ll regret it.
they have a range of rotary tools and clamps
All this talk about Sizzler pop up store in Brisbane has prompted me to make my own cheese toast tonight to have with soup.

Thank you kindly dear chef! Now excuse me while I snooze in a convenient corner with all this goodness
Sleeping on the truck means you might not get back to your home universe until some time tomorrow. Hope that’s okay.
Given how crap I feel right now, I could do with an adventure out of here. Are there any drs notes from other universes valid in this one? Then I don’t have anything to worry about.

A plate of mixed tacos please.

First year doing tax on my own. Is it worth just lodging my own? Is it hard to do? I don’t have anything fancy or complicated to worry about.
It’s incredibly easy to lodge on your own. The one time I used an accountant was because my tax status changed halfway through the FY from a WHM to an Australian resident and there was some BS that needed to be worked out with the ATO.
Every single other time I’ve done it myself, granted I have never been self-employed as I understand that can sometimes be complicated (I can’t remember if you have some income from self employment).
Meh. I found it easy enough and lodged my first one when I was 16. If you’ve given your employer and bank and anyone else who gives you money your TFN, they’ll prefill pretty much everything. But I can’t remember if you sell your books or not, if you do, that probably complicates things a bit. I don’t know how that works. But I’ve found the ATO to be pretty friendly when it comes to asking questions. Their website has a lot of general guidance, otherwise I’ve found them to be pretty helpful when you call
Also, they seem pretty chill if you unintentionally fuck something up. If they notice it first, they’ll probably just send you a letter saying you fucked up and telling you what to do next, which will usually be either giving them back any money they overpaid, or entering a payment plan to do so. If you ignore that then they will get feisty, but as long as you didn’t mean to make the mistake and we’re not talking about 40 million bucks, their first response won’t be to send the AFP to kick in your door
So apparently the program leader is bringing in the director of property maintenance from child protection so she can try and get him to agree to give them money to renovate our kitchen. I was honestly rather surprised to hear about this, as there really isn’t much wrong with the kitchen. I mean, they need to repaint the walls, and we could probably use a new stove, but it’s just a little odd that the kitchen is what they think needs renovation. Meanwhile one of the floors is pretty much being held on by paint and appears to have almost entirely rotted out, and the stairs are wobbly and all at uneven heights.
I did ask why the kitchen is their top priority, and apparently it’s because the property manager personally doesn’t like the archway that leads into the kitchen. That’s genuinely it. She doesn’t like the arch. I think this is the sort of thing I need to just shut up and be grateful they’re doing anything, but it just seemed a little odd that they’re going for the kitchen. The kitchen is probably the most modern and sturdy part of the house tbh.
Also also, apparently they knocked back my request to refit all the locks with deadbolts because of fire safety issues. Truthfully I don’t see how they affect fire safety, because I doubt anybody’s first instinct when there’s a fire is to try and stick a knife into people’s locks and pry it open, and they can still be opened from outside with a key. But apparently this bloke is also the one I need to complain to about that
I don’t know about residential spaces but in commercial space, an area that you can be locked into is a no-no from a fire safety standpoint. This may be where their thinking is coming from regarding the deadbolts.
Also: I’m not sure how it works in your place, but if I install a deadbolt without my landlord’s approval, I’d need to replace the door when I moved out. Who owns the actual place you are in? Some private owner or the government?
f me dead. What a shitshow.
A shitshow would be an improvement on this cluster. What utter incompetence. I am SO sorry for all the crap you’re having to deal with Baku :(
It really is beyond a joke at this point. The kitchen??? Far out… you ought to write an expose about how ridiculous this shit is Baku. I think most of us have no idea how farcical DHS is
Haha I really should
Slowly getting through today’s to do list
How good is chocolate milk?
Jesus christ I feel so fucked from changing my sleep pattern. Can’t do anything except sit and stare.
Bed time couldn’t come soon enough.
Sometimes I wonder if the cat sees me as more than a food dispenser.
I’ve been sick in bed all day pretty much, and she’s sitting beside me. When I fell asleep and woke up suddenly she was all alert, checking to see if I was OK.
Right now, the heater is on in the lounge room. She has a favourite spot she sits in (on top of her TP nest).
But she’s sitting in the cold bedroom with me instead.
Good old fluffy butt.
They know. I have one love bug, one standoffish queen and a sometimes spicy sausage. During the day its usually hands off the two girls, but they take turns to sleep with me at night.
They know. She loves you, as much as a cat can. This is her way of looking after you :) you truly are loved by a cat.
I recently saw somewhere a cartoon where a cat called theirvhiman a 5 foot can opener
Yeah you are definitely being guarded by the fluffybutt.
They definitely do. Cats are incredibly loving, but very very subtle
Time to switch off the news.
All this Trump stuff making him out like a hero makes me sick to the stomach.
How is someone who has repeatedly called for his political opponents to be assassinated a hero?
I’m not the person to ask since I loathe it so much.
His fanatic followers would provide a better answer to that.
Times like this I am so very thankful I do not watch TV. I don’t even know where the aerial cable is in my apartment, and the TV is currently unplugged in the spare room lol. If I want to watch something I use a streaming service (like taskmaster on channel 9 or whatever it is, not Netflix), or if I want news I go to the Guardian or ABC. That way I can pick what I want to know about.
Trump is a fuckwit.
I’m just turned on the ps5 and sitting on a menu screen.
Might watch some YouTube videos that I sub to if there’s anything new or put a movie on
he’s a pedophile
being shot at doesn’t change that
in fact, maybe that’s why he was shot !!
Hero? His own fckn side shot him in the face
Got into an argument with a mate the other day where I said he deserved to be shot. My mate was incredulous about how serious a claim that was, but what’s trumps death toll do you reckon? Thousands? Hundreds of thousands? To say nothing of the people he swindled.
Fuck yeah!!! How amazing is it!!
That exhibit is fucking 10/10!
Having a lot of fun!
I got this photo from the exact same angle when I was there
Where is this?
Melbourne museum! It’s an 85% complete triceratops fossil!
The Melbourne museum! 85% complete fossil of a triceratops!
how goods a new phone case. Makes it feel like a whole new phone. Clear cases are great and all, but that yellowing effect in time makes them look pretty crap. Black is where its at, no border on the screen.
