Just a quiet day here, a little tidying, one load of washing, I don't have to do cooking because I made pies last night. Will continue to watch telly and do calligraphy.

Mr Woof was causing a ruckus in the kitchen, so I went to investigate. He was trying to get at my sweet potato! I've had to move it to a higher shelf for safety.

Bloody corporate training videos, using a big red gift box to symbolise a bribe to a politician.

Don't they know it's always an Aldi Bag filled with cash.

I had no idea I’d given out 200+ Community Awards on Rdt. Not sure how I feel about that now.

So r/Melbourne is back but the mods are having a temper tantrum so they've made it so you can only talk about Melbourne, Florida, USA? Those mods are fucking stupid

Malicious compliance. If they kept the sub down to protest reddit, reddit was going to replace them with mods who won't protest them. So they opened the sub back up as directed, but are still protesting.

Just consider it as still being down, except funnier because thin-skinned people are getting super mad about the Florida posts.

So for some reason the main person at my job agency said that the period I did the trial run for would be unpaid, and it seems like the ombudsman says unpaid Labor is fine within certain areas. But when I asked my job provider if I was getting paid, for the trial run that I would be and that it's illegal for him not to.

I'm a bit confused, and annoyed that it might be unpaid.

Edit: so okay it looks like I will be paid. It's just up to the boss man and I. Iunno, it's very confusing. Because I'm his first like in-house non contract/freelance person. It's a little different.
