All the commenters so far are sick… Me too.

Getting through a sinus infection that came with a side-dish of pneumonia.

I’ll be ok… 4 month old, thanks entirely to my wife, is letting me sleep… The others are with their other parents so it’s been alright rest-wise…

Your response was way out of whack my dude

It’s a rough job.

Kind people who want to help others rarely do so for the money, and employers know that. I’m not getting a great wage but it’s better than the minimum which is lovely - but we do get the minimum we can possibly be paid…

My wife is a teacher, too… Talk about under appreciated.

Psychology is fun to look into… What’d be the end result if you furthered your psychology study? What’d be your goal for your career?

What if you do change? What next?

I’ve rarely stuck with any line of work over 3 years and I’ve learned a lot by working the variety of jobs I’ve had, but can never expect decent pay sadly.

Aaaaaahhhhhh I’d forgotten we had a prime minister named “Scott”

See, now here I was thinking all of them were made up but now I see Albanese as Albo… But don’t recognise slomo…

Ahh, I’m always up for a laugh.

I work disability support, which is really rewarding a lot of the time. I love helping people and giving people a reason to laugh…

How about you? What do you do?

Hey,

Just came home sick from work… I live in Australia so sick leave is alright…

How you doing?

I think its Slowmo…

Aussie here. Legitimately don’t even know who our Prime Minister is… Not hard to find out, just don’t remember their name

I live in Melbourne, Australia - and I couldn’t afford anything within an hours drive of the city.

Nope, not me.

Mine was a 10 year relationship and she wasn’t my wife…

Sounds like you have someone who is (or was) in your life who shouldn’t be.

I also work disability support - I have no money to throw around ;)

Try this, is it the sort of thing you’re after?

Seconded.

I had a mate who didn’t speak with his parents, lost his job and left his partner.

Took him in, rent free for 6 months. Got him on his feet, he got a new job and 6 months later he left… With my 10 year relationship. And my cat (but to be fair my ex was a vet so it made sense that she took him)

I thought he was a friend.

There’s a photo of me when I’m about 3 playing Sonic on the Megadrive when it came out… I don’t recall games before that

I don’t understand how its any easier than using 100 and dividing…

1/2 an hour is 30 min 1/2 an hour if metric used 100 is 50 min

1/4 an hour is 15 min 1/4 an hour metric is 25 min

Any lower than that and they both get tricky…

1/8 an hour is 7.5 min 1/8 an hour metric is 12.5 min

Getting used to metric time would be an impossible thing to implement worldwide I reckon, but I struggle to understand how its any less simple than the 60 min hour we have and the 24 hour day…

All kinds

We do creative arts based disability support

I assist people with cerebral palsy, autism, blindness, downs etc etc

Anyone and everyone :)

I wish I had the ability to be more concise. You said exactly what I needed to say but didn’t ramble like I did. Beautifully worded.

Fairo - I missed the sarcasm , my bad

Read the article? 'Straya!

I don’t get this… Its weird to me that people would propose without knowing their SO would say yes…

With my wife, we’d both spoken about it and knew we wanted to get married one day. The proposal was more a formality than anything… It feels like an odd thing to be surprised with and have to give an immediate answer on…
