“unlimited time off” is a scam. Actually any non-government mandated leave is dubious.

In Australia, you get 4 weeks PTO (called “annual leave” here) by law, which accrues if you don’t use it and is paid out when you resign or are laid off. Companies want you to take this leave because otherwise your accrued leave becomes a liability.

Most places I’ve worked, everyone sees people going on leave as a very positive thing.

We also get 10 days of sick leave which accrues every year as well so you can save your annual leave for vacations.

A contract for a salaried position may say something like “you will work 40 hours a week but you maybe have to work some moderate overtime to complete tasks at certain times throughout the year.” (Probably better worded than that) but that means they can expect you to work overtime every now and then if there is a deadline or a project that requires it. But if its every week or an unreasonable amount of overtime per week then you should be compensated with time in lieu or extra money. It all depends on your contract.

Nikola, you son of a bitch! epic hand shake

Why do you have a picture of his ass in your wallet though?

I’m tired, boss.

When I ready mini painting I though you were talking about doing normal paintings on tiny canvases. 😅

Do yourself a favour, delete your account and never look back.

I lean into it. “Oh you only slept for 20 mins? I feel great, I got a full 8 hours. I don’t even drink caffeine because I sleep so well”.

*American apple people. No one else on earth gives a shit.

The one time I missed it was when I was trying to sell a subwoofer which only has RCA inputs and I had to use my laptop top prove it worked to potential buyers. Other than that, I use Bluetooth exclusively.

All hail the fork!

This happened to a guy I knew but the other way around. He turned up late to the bucks party, started crying and saying he wasn’t ready for marriage and ended up cancelling everything and paying the bride-not-to-be’s parents back for everything.

I think they just rushed into it and he realised at that moment.

Once governments stop or reduce funding for the meat and dairy industries, prices will continue to go up and more people will be like you. At the end of the day, animal products (especially those from bovines) aren’t super sustainable and cost a lot more than we pay at the supermarket.

We call that a tactical vom in my circle of friends. My mate was known for it back in the day!

“who the fuck shit on the floor!?”

Generally, yes. I like MacOS more than windows because it’s at least *nix.

But to be honest I have no strong opinions on OS when it comes to work. I’ve used windows*/Linux/MacOS and none have stood out as far superior to get my work done faster or more efficiently.

I use MacOS with my Mac because that’s what’s installed out of the box.

The main things that seem to hold me back from working efficiently are programs that are required by the company to maintain their ISO accreditation like Microsoft “intune” or what ever it’s called.

*Only when required.

There are plenty of developers who use macs for work, me included. I mainly go with Mac for the build quality/battery life/performance though and also because my work pays for it so I don’t need to worry about the exorbitant price. I would agree that MacOS is pretty janky at times and it requires a few third party apps to be reasonable usable.

But I’m not really sure what you mean by useful bits? I don’t feel like I’m really restricted in MacOS. If there isn’t a UI element for something, you can probably adjust it in a terminal.

In Australia you can send money via phone number or email (called payid) but it’s not sent in an email or SMS, it’s just that your number/email address is used as a unique identifier linked to your bank account. When someone pays you via either of those, the money gets directed into that account instantly.

And yes, being paid directly into your bank account is standard here and I would say really the only option for most jobs. I’m 35 and have never had a job that doesn’t pay you direct to your account.

Currently rewatching Fullmetal and thought the same thing 😄
