One more work day then a 2 week break.
Have the choice of going in super early but basically the sooner I finish the work I’ve been assigned and tidy up the office area then I’m done for the day and it’s not going to take me too long I reckon.
Also I managed to get a new ID tag and my old one deactivated with a super quick turnaround thanks to a friend now managing it all at work and they had a shift to cover over at my site so basically all it took was 4 hours for me to get a new ID Tag, this time with my photo and name on it and no cost to pay, yay!
winning 👍
Oh I will be tomorrow, wonder I should to get to work tomorrow by 7:30.
The work I need to do will probably take an hour or so.

WHY ARE WE SCREAMING

EVERYTHING
That’s more like it
is that a good or bad aaaahhhh?
Open to interpretation. For me, right now, bad. Too much on the plate, slowly eating away.
lock yourself in a room so you won’t be disturbed
listen to the positive vibes of your mates here 😘
you can do this 🙂
Merci beaucoup :)
you always got this , you’re smart and dedicated and hard working 😘
Thanks Seagoon 🩷 I will try to be
Laksa. Thick or thin noodle?
Thing egg noodles for me
Clarify that again for me please.
Addams family reference. 🤏
Egg noodles are things
I prefer thick.
You win. Thick it is.
thick
Hedge your bets chuck both in and confuse everyone.

So instead of the other essential house chores (which I had barely any energy for already) I’ve now done two washes of one load of dishes complete with repetitively lifting a heavy jug, a complete clean and troubleshoot including moving the heavy machine.
And am now trying a third wash (for science) that I will still have to manually rinse - or potentially completely hand wash and rinse to actually get clean.
I’m going to be in pain and not able to do anything tomorrow. Some disability aid.
So fucking pissed
Done everything to fix it
I can’t even leave a bad review because they’re no longer being sold on that site.
Call a service rep from the manufacturer to have a look. It should still be under warrantee
and hugs,
Dometimes doing things simply is easiest. Less fuss, fewer things to go wrong.
It was through a third party and so repairs and warranties are a wild goose chase. I’ve seen people complaining about it when looking it up.
And yes, it would be simpler to just wash dishes myself. That’s just not always possible and after past …incidents I’m selective about who I allow to help.
I hoped a machine would allow that autonomy but apparently not
Dishwasher boogaloo
Ok. Two runs through the dishwasher didn’t clean things well, most noticeably the cutlery.
So I’ve removed all dishes and the rack. Took out the bottom grill and filter, disassembled everything for a scrub with a child’s toothbrush and rinsed. Every single hole or outlet has been cleaned with a pipe cleaner. The outlet hose was removed and had water run through it to confirm it wasn’t blocked, then reattached and the metal ring retightened.
I’ve started it empty with no soap and watched water flow unimpeded out of all the holes. No loss of pressure. Light bubbling of the water. I have the hose in a cup to catch some for whisking after.
And if this troubleshooting doesn’t work I’m tempted to put Midea out on her lazy arse. I haven’t really found this machine to be helpful. On top of the expense it’s mostly been a massive hassle and dragged chores out.
Added to that I’ve found cockroaches love the moisture and some are nesting behind it. It’s very easy to spill water while filling so you would have to move the heavy bulk and wipe the drips behind every time, and there’s not much you can do about having to leave the door open after use.
I seriously regret the purchase. It isn’t suiting my needs and I don’t like it.
Maybe you got a shit one. I don’t like how you can’t leave it ajar so I put a magnet there.

Yeah I don’t get it. Either the reviews were padded or I got a lemon.
I went to go leave a review and they’re no longer being sold there so that’s weird
Noosa’s Chip n Mix. What could possibly be there that you can’t make at home? $8 for 150g. I give it 3 years before the crash n burn.
Can’t imagine it’s particularly sustainable at all, but Noosa is a bit of a weird place.
Only time will tell I guess
Being generous with the 3 year plan.
The frozen yogurt places can kind of okay, cause it’s sweets. Can’t say the same thing about savoury things being sustainable.
Yeah, I was being generous. Everything is riding on the chicken salt and gravy I suspect.
Loaded fries can only take your business so far.
I’ll let you know when they’re 3/$5 at Savemore.
😂
but it’s Noosa and Noosa is well off and prone to mindless fads
Is it like when people line up at the Apple store just to be the first and say they did it?
people still do that?
They do it for sneakers still, I wouldn’t be surprised if people still do it at Apple stores
I don’t know. The only place I line up at is the post office.
I also found out the few people using linux in head office were asked to switch back to Windows. Because work offers no support, you were given root access and could just sudo anything onto your computer you’d like.
Sounds sick but that’s exactly why they’ve backflipped on this
What’s your most hated font? Every time I come across a document or email in Arial I just want to change it right away. It’s so bland.
Papyrus and New Times Roman
Calibri. Geez just makes me raaage. I am quite partial to Railway but I don’t hate Arial
I hate comic sans with a passion and I secretly judge people who use it, particularly at work
At this point they’re trolling the haters.
Ha! Probably
I’m shocked people still use Comic Sans in this day and age.
Oh I’ve seen it. In multi colour and blink.
comic sans should be used on legal documents to take the edge off.
I once saw a detailed ecological survey map by a qualified environmental consultant using comic sans. I may have shed a tear.
It would just make me feel more litigious
The font on the old theme I was using on the website was some serif font where the lines were all the same thickness.
There was something about it when doing white text on black what was just too heavy and hard to read
beeeeeach
Goodnight all! I have laundered and tidied, worked, shopped, cooked dinner, tidied up afterwards and am officially retreating to my room for the alone time my introverted soul needs. Will most likely pretend I’m going to buy a house and check out property listings before falling asleep. 🥱😴
Gathering ingredients for primordial soup
I can offer some methane 😏
That would be splendid. Thank you.
🧪💨
Here’s a copper 🪙
But I heard they’re all bastards. Should we have them in the soup.
In small amounts to spice things up, yes
🤣
bathroom sink is fixed, can now set up bathroom
and have a bath ( i’ve been having showers )
and a pedi
do my hair and brows
and generally look after myself better 🙂 yay
I love how the news re the sharemarket has gone from ‘bloodbath’ yesterday to ‘don’t panic’ today
I checked the “aussie dollar plunges” headline and the AUD which has been in the toilet for a while now, had gone from like 60.5c to 59.9c, plunges I tells ya.
Oh dear, we are clearly done for as a country 😂
Finally caved and put the doona on the bed. I’ve been holding out, alas.
Couldn’t hold out till this weekend’s “heat wave” passed? Weakling
(I’ve been rocking the lightweight doona so no claims of strength from me)
Back in melbs. Silly bus replacement. Wasn’t as bad as expected but yea, 4 and a bit hours :(
I guess one good thing is there are far fewer people.
One thing that perplexes me is to get from geelong to wyndham vale station and vice versa by road, you have to meander through a shitload of back streets. Poorly thought out.
This time was paying very close attention to the synthetic lawns. EVERYWHERE! I’m really not sure why people do that (sorry to anyone here who has one). Just put some rocks down, few bigger feature rocks, maybe some cacti. Wouldn’t be any more work, cheap as but would look a shitload nicer.
We need an update on your furry room mate please.
The furry friend lived to see another day. However (!), the bottle was put outside apparently last night and the peanut butter was gone the next day.
There is something out there. I want to believe.
Clever rodent.
Hey, just get a rat trap.
I’ve seen synthetic lawns all around here too
as someone who had wood tiles on a terrace and a neighbour who had fake lawn , don’t do it
it will collect dust and soil and plant particles and seeds brought in on the wind and when it rains it will turn to mud and sprout weeds
also, I second the call for furry room mate update 🙂
