probably is, if i didn’t get my bond back id be more inclined but it lined up well with losing employment so im not too stressedThis feels quite illegal btw... unsure if you can take any action now, but worth looking into.
just venting my frustrations mate, i’m well aware of the various incentives wrt working in NT and rurally that teachers are being offered for signing on (including the debt removal ones, but i already paid those debts off myself) but presently it’s simply just airing grievancesMeh. No sympathy. I've gone overseas teaching, as well as in remote communities in the NT, earlier in my career in order to get a job. The younger generation just want everything handed to them on a silver platter. A bit like these mumma boys drafted to an interstate club who don't want to go, or go back home a year later. You're playing AFL footy. Suck it up princess.
Right thread for itgastro!

Once went on a school camp where 38/51 staff and students ended up with Gastro. It was not pretty. Ended up with paramedics coming to assess the situation and a bus of six extra staff driven from Mildura to Adelaide to help us outgastro!

something similar happened on my year 7 camp back in the day, most of the cohort (except for my cabin ironically) got super sick, not goodOnce went on a school camp where 38/51 staff and students ended up with Gastro.

FTFYPeople.
and vehicles entering roundabouts despite not being able to exit, blocking the intersection...People. It is give way to the traffic "in the round about " not drive flat out and then get on your horn because there is a truck in the round about you ******* dipshits.
That is why I refrain from reading comments. It is not just Boomers or lefties or righties . It is all sides when they band together on a common cause. It is also media. I know I am in the minority though as I will read the news from all sides. Sky. ABC. The Guardian but I never bother reading the comments. I suppose it is why I have never had Twitter or Insta . Just not interested in reading hundreds of random opinions.Way too many cookers out there banding together to encourage each other. MSN comments are just a cesspit of boomerwaffen.
I got crook for a couple of weeks just as Israel-Hamas kicked off and got deep into X (Twitter). It really got in my head - it’s amazing how it shapes and warps your view of the world and your mental state.That is why I refrain from reading comments.

I had twitter as a way of curating my own newsfeed, follow the journalists directly from any side and all of them to find articles I wanted to read from various perspectives.That is why I refrain from reading comments.

I want intelligent, balanced news but that is 100% not the place to get it. Nobody on there actually thinks - just regurgitate the taking points of whichever side they are rusted on to.
So true. You know their thoughts on one subject, you know their thoughts on every subject.One thing I've noticed in the last couple years is how many people, online at least, have coupled beliefs. For example, if you see they have opinion X on subject Y you can predict with a high degree of accuracy what their opinion will be on a lot of seemingly unrelated things.
I get it with tribal and essentially harmless things like football. But with real word issues it's scary because it is indicative of a lack of critical thinking. The hypocrisy kills me too. I try to go out of my way to read opposing views from different sources but you really have to make an effort as if the algorithm picks up you are leaning a certain way on an issue it very quickly creates an echo chamber, which unfortunately works for engagement (which is the new measure of "success" - to hell with accuracy...) because it keeps people doom scrolling and clicking on things they agree with for a dopamine hit.
Yep. Agree. It is why I read different news feeds. Although they still carry their own bias I prefer to read both sides in that forum rather than jumping into the pack.I got crook for a couple of weeks just as Israel-Hamas kicked off and got deep into X (Twitter).

I'm the same. I've tried Twitter, failed to see the value. Don't use Facebook, TikTok or those platforms for the same reason.That is why I refrain from reading comments.
