    Certainly wasn’t intended as such. You usually need help to turn things around and even more help is definitely needed if you aren’t at a great starting point. Was just saying that while it will take time they at least have time!!

      It’s just that you keep putting it on them, as if they need to be the one to “turn things around” when their rant was specifically about external systems prejudicing them. They can’t “turn around” AusPost’s decision to deny them the ability to redirect their mail?

      Basically, they are trying to ask these systems for help, and are being denied. So why put it on their shoulders? Why not be outraged that someone is falling through the gaps, through no fault of their own?

      I get that you have good intentions here, but I feel like you’re kind of missing the point in a big way…

        Because at my age I’ve ran out of energy to be outraged after having to face many of the same things myself.

        You don’t know my life so back off and stop attacking me. Thanks.

          It’s pretty poor form to call any criticism against you out as “attacking”.

          Because at my age…

          I guess I shouldn’t expect much from someone your age though. Have a good night mate 🫡
