Just had a company meeting about raises. I don’t quality because I just started, but they gave everyone:
2%
You should have seen everyone’s face. The mood in the meeting plummeted instantly.
I’m expecting some resignations in the next few weeks.
Wow! And I used to get upset about my 5% yearly raise at my last job.
We love an effective pay cut
Exactly. I’m staying for 12 months and grabbing the certs I need then I’m out.
That’s barely covers inflation these days. It just make sure you’re taking home the same realised income as the year before
I’m here for 12 months to up skill. If I get a real promotion and it’s equivalent pay rise, cool. If not, other plans will come into play.
The only way to get a pay rise these days is jump ship, it seems. Unfortunately
That’s how it has become these days. Companies don’t invest in their people like they used to, so you have to become the master of your own career
100%. That’s worked for me whilst I’ve been in corporate.
The beatings will continue until … every employee is 18 and doesn’t know any better
Fed the kitty this morning and we went back to bed, cuddling sweetly… she stretched her arm, dropped it and punctured a single secretly sharp claw into my eyelid like a fishhook.
After a delay of refusing to get up it was washed with antibacterial hand soap and dabbed with Betadine so fingers crossed. I have a spare box of antibiotics ready to go.
But yeah, that was literally half a centimetre from my actual eye.
That makes me feel sick because I can’t have anything go near my eye ( like I can’t wear contacts because I freak out about it )
My painful cat encounter story is, I was trying to save someone’s cat in a tree so I climbed way up and grabbed it.
It got scared and wriggled and thrashed around so much that it fell…almost. It managed to hook a single claw into my forearm and was just hanging there…stretching my skin.
I could only freak out and scream and shake it off. Of course it landed on its feet and just sauntered away.
It’s ok, it was just the top eyelid near my eyelashes. Nothing actually went in my eye.
Reaching out
Touching me, clawing youSweeeeet Mother of Jesus
Fuck fuck fuck 🎶🎶 Bedtimes never felt so sharp
Yup, they’ll do that. Cerys sliced my left nipple in half once.
Keep an eye on that shit. Uh. Pun unintended
I clip her claws but she always secretly sharpens just a single one so I don’t notice. It’s her stiletto.
Wondering about those colourful nail caps but they seem like they’d cause distress
Edit: And yes, I’m watching it because litterbox paws and will start the box of antibiotics that’s on hand if anything changes. It would be a nasty spot for an infection
Tbh i just gave up. It’s what happens when you live with a cat.
My WhiteBoy used to wake us up by delicately inserting a single claw into a nostril
You can pick your nose but you can’t pick your alarm clock

My dog was having cuddlyboos on my chest and he reached out and touched my bottom teeth with his nails. 🤮
Who wants rain 🎤?
Marge might.
I’ll do my best.
Might grab another beer and think about it
Crack us another tinny while you’re up thanks love.
You got it
Thanks toots
Great song
I’ll pass tonight thanks.
Those colours don’t instill me with much confidence.
Too late she cried as she waved her wooden leg.
That’s my phrase! 😝
Scuse I said the fly
I removed the work profile and applications from my phone.
Not anymore guys. No thank you.
But what about your grindset?

It was so nice yesterday. Whyyeeee is the weather like this?
Because we live in Victoria and therefore aren’t allowed two consecutive days of nice weather.
True, true.
Just exercising my local whinging. 😂
As melbournians, it is our right to complain about the weather
I completely agree, and as someone who originally grew up in Britland I love it.
One good thing about being flooded is a double rainbow:
Double rainbow all the wayyyy 😭🌈🌈
What does this mean oh my god
I read recently that the double rainbow guy died but left a heap of footage to continue his YT channel which is still going four years after his death.
Double the jackpot at the end of the rainbow?
I feel like people’s behaviour has got a lot more out of line since the lockdowns. Just me?
spoiler
Lock down did a real number on people and we barely even acknowledge it anymore.
Theres a psychic wound that was inflicted on a lot of people.
I think it changed a lot of people.
FEAR grief and anger
I am the great cornholio! I need tp for my bunghole.
And it isn’t just you, people are just that much more inconsiderate. I blame lockdowns, but also the general state of the world right now - wars, rescinding rights, needless death, no ability to buy a house, pollies are landlords and two faced scum, far right bullshit, climate change… I can understand people reacting with general disrespect when it doesn’t feel like this world will last, and we suffer.
But I also believe in times like these, we have MORE of a duty to be kind to one other, to show compassion and grace. And that is severely lacking within the general population. Their attitudes compound upon the state of the world and just hurt us even more than we already are.
It would be nice to be kind… but I’ve found people are just getting more predatory and boundary stomping to the point I’m forced to be hostile to protect myself. :(
Absolutely, and it’s painful to do because it goes against our personalities and our very nature as human beings. Empathy and compassion is sacrificed for survival.
I have hope kindness and love will prevail, but our suffering in the meantime is wearing on me.
I just remembered there was someone who used to be on the other DT a couple of years ago who lived with their son and was pretty active. Forgot their name but I wonder if they’re doing okay.

Good afternoon Mother. I have cleaned the kitchen.

First day of the free food market in its new location. I don’t think Eastland security were impressed by the unruly mob, hopefully they get crowd control sorted out and don’t get kicked out. The old location was closer to home, but being under cover is a massive advantage.
My main wish for today was tomatoes, and I got three of those so I’m happy. Also lots of bananas, I’m not sure what I’m going to do with all of those.
Pizza? With sardines?
At first I was like 👀, then reread the comment… and the horrible flashbacks started… … Now I need to go home sick…
Banana Bread! Banana Cake!
Ba na na na 🦇
I made a big banana cake not long ago & have lots of slices still in the freezer. Maybe I can just have banana sandwiches for all meals for a few days?
Feeling awfully impatient at work today. There’s someone in the office that just manages to bring the whole place down and loads of us are on edge. At least there’s a yum lunch to look forward to, and then end of the day to look forward to after that!
Yeah I’ll order the motion activated light and see what I can do. Then if that doesn’t work out things are about to get stinky. I also have some creative plans for bike locks.
Ultimately though I’d love to just move somewhere less eventful and have a proper little garden, catio, maybe a shed to tinker. Maybe a fire pit. In my dreams. Maybe if I win the lottery
