Three weeks done in new hard job type. Now additional support is removed BUT I’m not longer having these tasks sent to me as a high priority, so now I’m getting way more normal things in combination with the hard things which is very nice. It was like 1 in 2 and now it’s more like 1 in 10. Much more chill than first three weeks when it was just hard new thing all the time

Got offered the job from the interview on Friday. Now just to decide if I actually want to take it. My replacement is starting for my current role on Thursday.

Do it!

Unpopular (?) opinion: the two greatest TV shows ever are Iron Chef and Grand Designs
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
I used to watch a lot of Robot Wars. Betting and demolishing. Such fun.
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Definitely good fun. I’m sorry but it’s not on the same level as my selections however
Eagle@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
I loved Iron Chef. But may I add the original Good News Week?
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
You may
underwatermagpies@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Antiques Roadshow would like a word.
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
I honestly thought about adding it to the list. I used to rush home from school to watch it on ABC. I maintain that my two are better though
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
I haven’t seen either of these.
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Same reply as to Seagoon: Omg you’re missing out. Lots of iron chef full episodes are on YouTube if you wanna check it out
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
I haven’t seen any of these shows other than Bender being Iron Chef.

Mickey is a little fiend for these dental treats, he absolutely loves them.
I guess I’ll go to petbarn and grab a massive tub of them. They’re the only treat he really begs for 😂
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Can you take a pic? Would love to get Fluffball away from what she likes currently (temptations)
StudChud@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
The brand is called Greenies, it’s dental treats for cats (they also do dogs but that’s irrelevant here lol!
They have chicken, tuna, and catnip flavours. Mickey is a little demon fiend for the catnip flavoured ones 😂
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Good idea, sometimes buying in bulk is cheaper. And definitely hit up the specials.
I’ve found sometimes if you let an item sit in the cart you might get a coupon
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Thank you everyone for the kind words ❤️ fingers crossedn🤞🏾

First time beer battered calamari rings tonight.
I’m sold on doing it that way now and not panko.
Double frying which was scary in case you end up w/ a gumboot, but it actually worked.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Looks nice. 🤤

Apparently there’s been bioluminescence in St Kilda Beach. Can it wait until the weekend? I wanna go see it.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
There is so much cool stuff at your beach I’m jealous
Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 4 weeks ago
on the west coast, for a bio class we dug up "sand crabs’ and looked for strange parasites, they will filled with them.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Looks so calming. Love the shrimp party!
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
very calming
and the shrimp party was so cute 🦐🥳 They were about 5 cm long ☺️
tone212_@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
So far it’s all smooth sailing with using my friend to help me with some business design stuff. It’s much easier explaining what you want to someone who already gets the way you think. They also seem really excited to be working together again, we made a good work duo. So fingers crossed it stays all positive.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
It’s great to hear things are working out. Sounds like you’ll make a great team going forward again

I used to leave my handbag in my car in the garage. Now that my car is in the yard, I bring it inside. That momentary of panic “Where did I leave it?” because I’d been out and about this weekend.
Oh it’s there hiding behind the coffee table. Mother fucker. I now have a designated spot.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Designated spots for things like that is very important. Especially keys, I don’t understand people that just throw them anywhere and then have to do a search every time they leave the house.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
I’ve always hung my keys up in the same spot. I have taught YL the same after once having found her car keys in her handbag.
Everything in my house has a spot and if that item is not there I lose my shit.

My desire to have my breakfast muffin hot and my desire to have my breakfast muffin NOW are currently in conflict.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Hot is better than now, stay strong
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
I stayed strong. Breakfast muffin was hot & very yummy. And the good new is I have another one for tomorrow’s breakfast too.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Man, indie game trailers are a real rabbithole on Youtube. You watch one and keep getting suggested more. They all look interesting but I don’t have the time
SituationCake@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Today is national wattle day. Hopefully you encounter some of the fluffballs in your travels today and enjoy their joyfulness! Bring on Spring!

beach
I need that calming.
the rhythms of the maintenance work around the beach, the fishermen, the bait catchers, people out for walks, joggers, dogs
all the wild life, the tides and weather,
being in it so many days a week you get to know it and get into the rhythm too
it’s nice
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
I wish it was more normalised to be single by choice, potentially lifelong. And there were more supports/safeguards for older people taking that path.
Then again even being married and having kids doesn’t guarantee you care or advocacy in your final years, or that you won’t be in poverty, so it is what it is. /shrug
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
since I stopped having dairy my coffee consumption has halved, only 2 cups a day now
and another boring day of rest here

Radio show review
Around the World in 80 Days. BBC.
I just couldn’t enjoy this on account of what an appalling person Fogg is as well as all the racism.
1 star for technical
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Gibson is going for an operation tomorrow where she’ll be under anaesthetic and tbh I’m pretty worried.
It’s got to be done but yeah, fluffball is a real important part of my life and yeah. It’s stressful.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
We’re here for you ❤️
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
sending so many healing thoughts 😘😘😘
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
I’ sending positive vibes her way. Stay strong :)
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Miss Meow bounced back from her general anaesthetic extremely quickly. She was back to normal the next day, much more resilient than Mr Woof who needed drugs and a cone on his head for a week.
SituationCake@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Good luck hope she recovers well!
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Hope it goes well. Poor kitty.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Good on you for taking such good care of her!
Eagle@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Its tough. And wait until she protests about the lack of breakfast! Sending you both furry good wishes for a seamless experience.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Melbcat had a general anaesthetic for a tooth extraction at 14yo and pulled up okay. Tomorrow is never promised but I hope that’s some reassurance.
Good luck to Gibson. If it’s a tooth extraction I was told to give mine chunks of cooked meat instead of soft wet food that could get into the stitches.
