    Aussie real estate agent's 'strange' act rattles grieving family

    I spent some time as a real estate agent and it was a common thing at the agency I worked at. The slang for that was "coffin chasing". I would never take part in that as I think it is morally wrong but then the owner of the agency had no morals. One of the reasons I quit as I was not prepared to...

    Aussie real estate agent's 'strange' act rattles grieving family

    Flowers are just a tactic to keep his details in her mind when it comes to selling. I bet there was a business card attached to the flowers.

    Will paper receipts soon be a thing of the past? Kmart is going (mostly) digital using new 'smart' Aussie technology

    I refuse to use self serve checkouts. A friend of mine was conned into using a self checkout even though he said he didn't want to. He had a trolley full of stuff so when she scanned the first item he said that he'll pay for that and left the full trolley behind. Take that Woolies. If all of us...

    Will paper receipts soon be a thing of the past? Kmart is going (mostly) digital using new 'smart' Aussie technology

    It is all done to lead us into a cashless, digital society that does not have a place for old people. They are disposable as they are a financial burden on the government. By using your smart phone for everything you are playing right into the hands of those who want to monitor and control every...

    Beware: Popular family car model recalled over fire risk

    I personally witnessed a translator giving answers at a drivers license test. I didn't think it was appropriate to whip out my phone and start documenting it for someone like you. If you look at a lot of Indian truck drivers they have no idea of the road rules. Some of them can't even tie a load...

    This breakfast news program was discreetly axed after lacklustre ratings

    I was thinking the same thing. Talent?? Her?? Don't make me laugh.

    Beware: Popular family car model recalled over fire risk

    I totally agree. It seems to be all about greed. Many of my friends, and I, really tried to buy Aussie made or made anywhere else but China. It's not easy which shows you how trapped we are now by getting everything made overseas because it's cheaper. Australia has been sold up and sold out for...

    Beware: Popular family car model recalled over fire risk

    No wonder people can't drive. You don't even have to speak English to get a drivers license these days. What could possibly go wrong?

    Beware: Popular family car model recalled over fire risk

    I got my doubts about that one. They would be in damage control worrying about the cost of the recall.

    Beware: Popular family car model recalled over fire risk

    When I saw the headline I thought that it was about one of the new battery powered cars. They are a ticking time bomb. They catch fire for no reason and lithium fires are very difficult to put out as they burn under water. They had major problems with them in the USA when they had floods and...

    'Do not do this': Experts warn this internet cooking 'hack' is dangerous

    Just another reason to get off social media. The likes of TikTok, Farcebook and all the other platforms like that which are a social cancer that degrades the human spirit and creates jealousy, stress, depression and, as in that post, danger to your life. Morons that put steaks in toasters must...

    An old school doctor that really cared about people and tried look after their wellbeing unlike a lot of doctors these days that are no more that drug pushers for the big pharmaceutical companies.

    Australian Government hopes to cut smoking in half by 2030

    I am an ex smoker and I think it is a terrible habit. The government once again is engaged in window dressing. Smoking gives them a huge tax income along with alcohol and they need that money to"balance" their budget. I agree that smoking and drinking causes all sorts of issues but the elephant...

    Ex-MasterChef Judge George Calombaris opened up about his drinking problem and unpaid wage scandal

    You are right. He basically had a cash business. I had a Pty Ltd Company for over 20 years and I agree 100% that your employees are the heart of a business. I put in place a profit sharing arrangement for employees that were with the company for more that 18 months. I was also very selective...

    Ex-MasterChef Judge George Calombaris opened up about his drinking problem and unpaid wage scandal

    To start with I am NOT condoning wage theft by any means as I've been a victim of it myself in the past. Having said that how may here have had their own businesses? It's not a picnic and the government puts every hurdle in front of you that they can. Fart out of tune and they are there to 'get'...

    The new Pension Work Bonus rule is taking effect today

    It's all just window dressing to make the government look good. What they give you with one hand, they take away with another. In the end you are usually worse off anyway. Scott Moronson was "Scomo". Boris Johnson was " Bojo". Anthony Albanese , by those standards, should be called " Anal"...

    Shopper slams Woolworths’ new reusable tote bag: ‘They’re ripping after one use.’

    Whatever happened to "voting with your feet?" I remember that if you had a bad experience you would go and see management and try to solve it. If it wasn't solved to your satisfaction you would not buy that product again.If management is rude then would go to head office. No satisfaction? Don't...

    You might be paying a lot more for toilet paper soon - here’s why

    No, it's called renaming the flu so that they can make millions from injecting untested MRNA poison into your system which destroys your immune system for a start not to mention changing your DNA. What could possibly go wrong? More people have died from the injection than of the "flu".
