    You won’t believe what this boss asked a fired employee to do—Would you put up with it?

    Similar experience, nearly 60 years ago now. My ex was in the army and we were posted to WA from Victoria. I got a new job as a senior stenographer with a firm of architects here in Perth. I explained to them at the interview that my husband was in the army and any time after two years we...

    Dashcam captures risky rural driving mistake sending Aussie motorists into meltdown

    Same thing happened to my friend's son, just outside of York. Six months later he is still learning to walk again. Driving home from Bunbury a few days ago I was playing dodge the birds all the way home, mainly 28s, galahs and a few grass parrots taking a snack on the road at every corner. My...

    Bendigo Bank to close 10 branches, leaving some regional towns without financial services

    Wish these conspiracy theorists would stay together down the same rabbit hole , instead of popping up and annoying the heck out of sane people. What makes them think we want to hear their incessant ramblings.

    Are families ready to ride 'Australia's wealth tsunami'? Here's why good legacy handover matters

    You would think that would be right. But life isn't that simple. I once worked in a solicitor's office and you would be surprised what goes on with peoples wills. There was a case where one old codger left his eldest son everything and his wife nothing. The son planned to sell the home and...

    Well mate I don't know about members not being up to date on THE GREAT RESET, but if they are interested there is an enormous lot of information on THE GREAT RESET CONSPIRACY THEORY out there. Please note the Capitals. You've possibly run into my son in law at some stage, he lives down that...

    I don't know if this is everywhere but I recently got some cash out at our local country Post Office, for the first time and was charged $6.00. When I shopped at the Iocal IGA and asked for $50 cash out I was charged $7. What a rort. We have a Commonwealth Bank but no ATM and seeing I don't...

    Do you have a favourite quote that inspires you?

    I will pray for this outcome tomorrow as my dsughter once again has to go for another op. Because of the massive dose of radiation she needed after her first cancer operation that was in her tongue, lymph nodes and jaw, her teeth are now completely disintegrating and all need to come out. She...

    AHPRA takes action against more than 50 practitioners in medicinal cannabis crackdown

    I'm in WA. I think my son is beyond help. He is in jail at the moment, for about the fifth time. He gets high goes off in his car which is unregistered. He lost his licence years ago. Of course the police know him and his car and there's always drugs in the car. He never learns. At least...

    AHPRA takes action against more than 50 practitioners in medicinal cannabis crackdown

    So right. It doesn't work for all people, like many things, but works wonders for others. People are paranoid about cannabis, and cannabis can be a gateway to heavier drug use. But is no different to people drinking alcohol. Some people become alcoholics, some pot smokers become addicts...

    AHPRA takes action against more than 50 practitioners in medicinal cannabis crackdown

    Buying cannabis oil for the wrong reasons would be counter productive. The THC has been removed, or is supposed to be, so you're going to have a hard job getting high.

    Alright, be honest...how do you feel about BIG W stocking a MAGA hat?

    The only person I've noticed with Trump Derangement Syndrome is orange clown himself. He's definitely truly deranged.

    Alright, be honest...how do you feel about BIG W stocking a MAGA hat?

    No, it's not just a bloody cap! If it was plain red it would be just a cap. We don't need the grifters merchandise in our country . Next we'll be selling his gold sneakers and Trump bibles.
