Very not looking forward to this week of work. Doing the latest possible shift, 1230 to 8.30. then week after that back to 8am to 4pm, much better.
its probably a good thing that voting in mandatory. I already put 10x more effort into putting the stupid slip in the envelope than I would normally be prepared to do. Ended up giving up and holding it to stuff it in. Am I allowed? Dont care. Jobs done. and frankly given I did some research and didn't just draw a dick I'm prepared to bet I put in more effort than some folks will.
Just did mine.
First time I haven't voted green
made sure all the fascists were last so that meant plain idiots and single issue candidates were higher up
Dont think we had any fascists this year. We did have a real estate agent though ๐คฎ

I just folded mine. Then watched the other half try to gently fit his in the envelope with his giant man hands while laughing quietly.
Iโm still waiting for my papers to arrive. Makes me wonder how big it is.
Bigger than she says, but not as big as he claims.
My partner and I did ours over the weekend. 5 candidates, and one of them needed an editor for their blurb honestly. Completely nonsensical. Put them 5 haha.
Also we just folded ours haha
One of ours had a blurb that was just one entire sentence, no punctuation. Get someone to proofread, people!
Council elections? I had a lot of trouble getting the envelope open far enough to put the ballot paper in. Ended up sticking a skewer in and waggling it about before putting the ballot paper in. I diagnose crappy quality control of envelope specifications.

I'm debating whether or not I should take a gap year before starting the teaching course.
This is on the basis that I find a casual job with full time hours. I really wanted to do teaching but everyone around me is saying I shouldn't do it because of behaviour management, taking work home, and that I'm too much of a stresshead. I also have unmanaged ADHD, constantly submitting things late. When I'm a "bad student", I feel like I'll be a bad teacher.
I think I'll try the teaching course and then apply for OT if it doesn't fit.
I would say take a gap year if you're feeling a bit lost/overwhelmed because god knows it becomes much harder to do as you get older. And some of the people you meet/experiences you have may turn out to be pivotal to the rest of your life, even if you end up going in a different direction.

Oh sick discovered a camper my car can actually tow! Got a turbo diesel with nearly 2 tonnes of towing capacity, but if I stand on the towball thats almost too much weight for it. Not exactly the best design in the world.

Never watched the Sopranos until now. Great show, but as someone who grew up with Italian grandparents, calling pasta sauce 'gravy' makes my eye twitch.

If I ever see an old vinyl from the soviet bloc I am sure to snap it up.
Today I was not disappointed. I got a 1968 Supraphon recording of Beethoven 1st and 8th symphonies from Czechoslovakia.
omg, it is awesome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19jqWhCv2o4
