You did some serious over shopping prep didn't you? 😺

[-] just_kitten@aussie.zone 6 points 1 day ago

Definitely a good idea to keep the momentum going after today's news!

100% Spoke to a few people today. Everyone i spoke to feels the same. They're actively on seek on their phones at work lol

These are management people.

Oh noes ... Came home a bit early so I could regroup and finish off the years tasks quietly. 20 min nap on couch became 2 hour DEEEP sleep with random nightmares and now my neck is cricked and I am discombobulated.

Yep. That was 2024 in a nutshell

Dinner out, first time in ages. Little Mexico in Berwick. Nice enough, kinda lacking in spice levels but that's probably more on me.

I regret getting in contact with my Aunty to settle things.

She tells people that I’m the nice one I’m the family but I just choose not to get into conflicts.

She texts me this.

“I haven’t got any replies to my emails. You better tell your cousins to hurry up to have settlement by blah blah date”

Dunno if I’m reading into too much but it does t sound very nice and feels like she’s pressuring me to rush them.

[-] just_kitten@aussie.zone 5 points 1 day ago

Family conflict over property issues is the worst. Brings out a real nasty side of people. I hope like hell it'll go smoothly in my family

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 1 day ago

I’d like to see it resolved soon but not with messages like that. It’s very demanding I feel and she’s supposed to be the executor of the will.

There’s already been major conflict in the family with the contesting of the will and some legalities that had to play out and she dumps it all on me because I’ve chosen to stay neutral as much as I can.

Who's an idiot who thought it'd be overcast and left their bedroom blinds partly open and window wide open. No prizes for guessing.

I am being taught over and over again THOU SHALT ALWAYS LEAVE THE BLINDS DOWN AND WINDOWS CLOSED before leaving for work. No exemptions. Boiling.

Met up with some old colleagues which was nice - kind of really tied a neat bow on that chapter, one year on - now to catch up on 2.5 hrs of work and call it a day.

[-] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 5 points 1 day ago

No prizes

No you get an icypole too. We're all winners here.

IT outage at the hospital, waited 2+ hungry and uncaffeinated hours for my scopes to be cancelled. 💀 I'm declaring today Taco Overload Tuesday to celebrate.

[-] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 6 points 2 days ago

oh no! did you have to do "the prep"?

[-] Pilk@aussie.zone 9 points 2 days ago

Sure fucken did! All for naught. Nobody's fault really -- I might have been a bit short with the Dr who broke the bad news. Sorry doc. Your skirt was fierce af though.

[-] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 7 points 2 days ago

BRUH! So you gotta do it again?! FUUUUUUUUUUUCK off with that

[-] Pilk@aussie.zone 7 points 2 days ago

Yes, unfortunately there is another 2L of putrescent "lemon" flavoured slop in my not-too-distant future.

[-] just_kitten@aussie.zone 5 points 2 days ago

Oh nooooo. You've somehow locked a worse level below eviscerating your guts for bowel prep - doing it TWICE in succession. My sympathies.

What sort of buffoon tries to sell a house with neither stove nor oven? Wonder what other surprises lurk in this one?

[-] Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 10 points 2 days ago

Turns out I took 1 more week of leave than I thought. 3 weeks here we come!

So today i mostly worked like a dog. My boss admitted to faffing a little too much today and didn’t as much done as she should have.

Hopefully this earns me a couple of early work finishes though tomorrow I have a work function at the end, I really hate that keeping us at work later to do these functions.

[-] just_kitten@aussie.zone 5 points 1 day ago

I'm lucky my work functions have been totally paid and during work hours. If they were out of hours I'd bail (as nice as my colleagues are).

I'm progressing to the next stage with this job. I don't know if it's what I want to do but if I got an offer I feel like I shouldn't knock it back. I just don't want to end up in a similar situation where I'm out in a year's time because it didn't work out

The cat is mad at me because there's cream in the fridge and it's not all in his belly (just some). He's given up yelling at the fridge and is now glaring at me, and occasionally mixing it up with looking very sad and lean.

So. This morning we find out that the awesome manager will no longer be leading our team.

As I mentioned a bit earlier today, she's the main reason I've stuck it out.

Let's see where the new year will lead. Probably out of this place.

Have you ever seen a more majestic breakfast? 240g steak, 1 avocado, one smallish zucchini, 200g mushroom, two runny yolk eggs. Butter, salt, pepper. And now I won't eat until tomorrow! I also won't get hungry til then either

Staffy got stuck last night. No idea how she managed this one, she’s never put the blanket over her head before.

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 5 points 1 day ago

Today on our drive to Christchurch we got acquainted with Brian FM. Brian is our soul mate. 💜

https://thespinoff.co.nz/business/13-05-2023/who-is-brian-and-why-is-he-breaking-every-rule-of-fm-radio

We need a Brian here in Melbourne, only, taking playlists sent in by people.

This is it. One more day between me and holiday (except for whatever little bits I will inevitably need to finish off in the morning.

Yyyeeeeaaaah...

Fell asleep splayed out on the bed no blankets and in the middle of the night woke up shivering cold. Good times.
