Things that sh*t me the seventeenth

[rocker_oz33]

I took her home last week.
None of her NDIS carers were available.
I said I'll do it .
Because you need your walker for everything.
I'll see if the place is safe for you to move around.
You need earse of movement around your flat with your walker.

Things were moved like furniture etc.
But the ambulance service's would of needed to move stuff to get her from where she fell and hurt her self.

She's more worried about birth certificate that are missing..than the money .

Police were called .

Food delivery bikes.
I live in a one way street, and yesterday played chicken with two riders 30 seconds apart, one had a go at me.

The absolute nerve of going the wrong way and expecting to have right of way.
I try not to get angry whilst driving, but Jesus I swear people are getting more selfish every year

Try driving in Dubai.

The b**stards are like a swarm of metal mosquitos, their bloody motorbikes swerving between busy traffic, with no regard for road rules.

Food delivery “drivers” are the biggest threat to civilisation - global warming and nuclear holocaust coming a distant 2nd & 3rd.

I'll take you're word on it, living in St Kilda on a weekend is bad enough mate.
Last weekend I had a delivery guy blow through a stop sign, narrowly missing the front of my car, and when I beeped him he flipped me off.
At peak times the behaviour of these bikes legit reminds me of Vietnam.

Drove into the city last night for the first time in maybe 3 years just to see what's changed. Too many streets cut to one lane each way, for a start.

Some **** on a delivery scooter zoomed up my left and then cut directly in front of me, if I hadn't stabbed the brakes and jerked the car right he'd have been kissing my left headlight.

Five minutes later I almost cleaned up another **** on an electric bicycle with a food box on the back who thought it was a good idea to run a red light and turn into my lane.

It seems the lane restrictions and lowered speed limits have given them some kind of invisible cloak of impunity.

They're constantly rushing from order to order because they earn absolute peanuts, as a result road rules, courtesy and etiquette get the chop.

I stopped using them at the end of Covid restrictions, so many items would go missing it's was getting out of hand.
No way in hell would I trust them to handle my food anymore.

Houses in my estate would be ****ed. Cars line both sides of the street. My BT50 can struggle at times, a big wide firetruck has no hope.

 

[The Golden Glenferrie]

Thanks!!

Yep, unfortunately I'm entering the real world and saying goodbye to the mirage of young adulthood. Negotiation and taking ownership is part of that hahaha. Entry level sucks!

When i **** up, i realise i am not paid enough to worry so I just smile and cop my hiding

Seems like I have two choices. Bust my ass with a decent possibility it'll never be worth it and I'm pushing shit up a hill. Or be a realist and do enough to ensure my work is marginally above the bare minimum, and not worry my pretty little head.

Some of the newer estates have less nature strip they cut in places for cars to park.
Much better idea imo.

They're not meant to park on the road. Maybe I should be that guy that suggests to the council it might be time to drive around and collect a few k in fines.

Happens in every estate.
Cars Park to close to the intersection.
Can make it hard to see at times.

Cars are not meant to be on nature strip's.
But that also happens alot.

Yep, **** me in the CBD they truly are a law unto themselves, red lights do no matter to them. As I’m driving in the city in a company car this week I need to behave, but I’m so close to wiping one out!!!

At one stage tonight we were discussing traffic levels, my comment was moving ok until I hit a dickhead uber eats cyclist and close the road!

Probably need to apply the Mumbai Dabbawalas model.
Super efficient lunch time service.

I have a meeting with a customer soon, one of my colleagues has to come along, he embarrasses me in every meeting we go to. The bloke doesn't listen to the customer, doesn't shut up, reads no social cues, it's always painful.

Let him do all the talking, just lean back in your chair and let the carnage happen.

Absolutely what I do with this campaigner. Some things you can’t do anything about no matter what your job is, you need to enjoy the funny side of it all.

You could buy a lick sleeve. Or chop up the wife's old gym pants.
