Yes, a little bit. The pension is enough to survive on but not much else. I think society does not properly respect what a lifetime is, nor does it respect the value of the volunteer work that many of the retirees do.

you can be alone but not lonely, or partnered up and extremely lonely its not about being with someone its about how you are with yourself - i personally like myself and love my own company - my husband is the same so we work well as we don't rely on each other to 'fill' the void we are independent but enjoy each other too

We've had pandemics before.....Spanish flu, the Plague, etc. It's social media that's making people crazy...... Have a camera aimed your way and all of a sudden your dumb idea or theory goes viral. Shut down social media and I think you'll shut down the crazies, the conspiracists and all those who have nothing better to do. Hell you never know, they might end up being...dare I say....a productive and contributing member of society or at least to their family.

Instead of baking for almost an hour, I'd prepare in the morning and use my crock pot instead on low to save electricity! Also, no turning the sausages! \ud83e\udd17

simple but elegant. it is nice to make a 'it is a me' statement but not when you end up with people pulling (oh dear what was she thinking) face. i believe in being an individual but you can go too far

That is a healthy option! That would make a serving for me! Anyone else will have to make their own! \ud83d\ude0b\ud83d\ude02

I want to spend and use as much government resources as I can, to get back at all my taxes wasted to support useless politicians and public servants.

That's the same photo they used for a simple seviyan recipe last week. Does this mean the photos are not real examples?

Feeling comfortable in their presence. Feeling safe,happy. Whether that be because they are good listeners, have empathy,genuinely interested in what you have to say. Other things that aren't really quantifiable,the feeling you get when your with them and they with you. Like a connection of sorts but deeper.

I was in a relationship with a narcissus. It was the darkest time in my life. But when you are at rock bottom, the only way is up.

My phone blocks calls that I dont have on my contact list but if this did happen I would have asked who was calling when I answered the phone

I told my date I was taking her somewhere really expensive tonight: I took her to the petrol station!

Public Hospitals in Adelaide give discounted parking for visitors of a family member, but it is a 7 day pass no casual parking and you have to apply. Out patience get a parking permit if they apply, I think it would pay to ask what is available at your hospital.

Many drivers are driving on foreign licences from countries where the roads rules are different to ours. People in NSW are allowed to take their test in a language other than English. When I made a complaint about it I was told road signs are the same worldwide so it makes no difference. I disagree, the word DETOUR comes in English only, so if you can't read English you won't know what it means.

never tried an audiobook. Joined my local library at 5 years old and am still a member (of a different one) and avid reader at 69. Books are best and always will be imho

In Australia before they done away with the white Australian policy. They seem to let all kinds in these days, people and races that won't assimilate.

I am not expecting any visitors for Christmas. so if anyone shows up, what they see is what they get.

Fish is difficult to assess, some fish get a bad taste after only a month or so and others seem to last for ever. I found a pack of seafood highlighter frozen in its original packaging in the bottom of my old freezer, that was 22 years old. I defrosted it and gave it a go, and it looked and tasted exactly the same as another one I had bought frozen from the supermarket still inside the use by date. You just have to experiment a bit to find what works. For instance bacon rashers get a funny taste after only a few months, but short cut bacon, without the fat lasts much longer before the taste changes.

Half of my son's mates went to Uni and have a lot of debt and no job. He got flack when he started at McDonald's (is now a manager earning good money). He has people with degrees working under him, their course fees would be a deposit on a house. And yes I'm proud of my son, now I just have to work on the other one....

Don't answer unknown numbers. Back during Covid it was rife. I turned the tables on scammers trying to sell a cure, I said I had created a cure with Maori herbs yada yada. I was so convincing they were asking if I could send some and were giving me their details! Kept me entertained.

I have a building background so am the unofficial house inspector for family. A house is a long term investment so you need to check it out from a registered inspector (if they get it wrong, it's on them). It's like buying a car and going "she'll be right" instead of getting a mechanic to take a look.

The nostalgia 's back up the charts ! Ads .?. https://youtu.be/85ubtVs5n6A?si=WowJjz2bwMeZtUxE And here's the old yet exciting discussion most guys used to have when this one cropped up on Telly . .. 2 Gin and tonics, 2 Vodkas and a Scotch . https://youtu.be/ozgvM5YXvCs?si=cRmBrj8dZ6RDp_3p

this saying was introduced to ensure staff were always courteous keeping customers happy ensures future business the saying may be wrong but it does keep things civil

As you reach 50 there are a massive quantity of reasons that are given for not getting a position...I came second in at least 12 positions...to people less qualified...no-one believes that you just want the job...you are after their job...no-one wants to employ someone who might be smarter than them....its tough

Lived common law for 15 years till she passed from a heart attack in front of me. Other than my teens and early 20's, the best 15 years of my life.

Any explanation the difference between on-work and non-work screen time? My previous job was on-work screen time 9.5hrs each shift, 4 days week for over 18 years. Here I am \ud83e\udee3\ud83e\udd79\ud83e\udd23\ud83d\ude1d

I am retired. I am attending college (online) - I should matriculate in June of 2026 with a BA in 2026 - if I am still above ground at that point. I travel (aboard) during the summer months (I reside in the Northern Hemisphere). Mostly, I enjoy being a LAZY BUM!

If you had Monday or Friday off, it would be like having a long weekend all the time. In medical professions and teaching professions, that would be hard to implement. I don\u2019t think that a four day working week would work for everyone.

Cost of living is totally irrelevant to what actors are paid. Only idiots pay 25 to go to see a movie, there's plenty of cheaper options

Been banned in Western Australia for decades. A lot of human eyesight injuries, etc., been avoided. Not to mention accident fires.

The Banking Scandal of 2008 proved how smart criminals are - especially WHITE-COLLAR-CRIMINALS. WHITE-COLLAR-CRIMINALS 'ripped' the world off for trillions of dollars - and 'none' of the money was recovered. However, every government on this planet had to payout trillions of dollars to stabilize CAPITIALISM - or CAPITIALISM will have collapse. Furthermore, in the late 19th century - ROBBER BARONS' stole and looted a country in broad daylight for decades - it is known as USA these days, and ROBBER BARONS are known as OLD MONEY these days. History has proved on numerous occasions that WHITE-COLLAR-CRIMINALS - always get away with the money and NEVER get CAUGHT! Other words - crime pays very WELL - lol!

All doctors are not created equal. I see a General Practitioner (GP). I completely trust my General Practitioner. When a health issue that is not part of her in-depth area of medical expertise - she will immediately refer me too the appropriate MD (example: Heart and blood vessels concerns - she will refer me to a Cardiologist - which she has done). Furthermore, she has been my GP for 26 years and counting!

I won\u2019t comment on whether people should or shouldn\u2019t have children. It\u2019s very much a personal choice. I\u2019m a Baby Boomer, now 66. I still clearly remember the day my in-laws visited, and MIL announced in no uncertain terms that couples who decided not to have children were the most selfish people in the world. I was 25 at the time, and had been married 6 years. We went on to have children, but I was disappointed that she had voiced her view in such a way, and created an \u201cexpectation\u201d in our relationship. Children are everywhere (nieces, nephews, children living in care, neighbours, friends\u2019 children \u2026.. ), you can quite easily have children in your life that aren\u2019t your own, and they are just as special.

"Elderly" is such an ugly way of describing Senior Citizens. I'm 76 years old, and I have the "heart" of a 16 year old. I'm still compassionate and caring, lively and loving, thoughtful and thrifty, and I have empathy and humility. I was a good kid, and now I'm a good "Baby Boomer". As one grows older in years, our minds stay young, even if our bodies don't and, given the chance, I could love someone just as much now, if not more, than I did when I was young! ;-D

They all do that now. What was considered a little bit of money is now considered lots. They are just abiding by cash laws which compels them to report suspicious transactions. By law any transaction that is considered suspicious can be reported even if it is below $10000. It is no longer "your money, Ralph".

If everyone on this earth lived by the guidelines written for our benefit in God's inspired word, the Bible, there would be no wars, no poverty, no abuse, no loneliness, none of the things we see in the world today. Please search for answers in the Bible to whatever problems you are having because the answer is there. You just have to search for it! Please read 2 Timothy 3:14-17. ;-D

I have been wanting to do the same thing. I'm 72, and I still ams clinging to dolls and baby furniture and even my baby clothes! I have no children and basically no family who cares! They are only valuable to me. I also have a doll that is in perfect condition in the size of a 3-year old! I've had her since the early 60 or late 50s! She is worth a couple hundred dollars. How do you sell your child? lol I am terribly sentimental and anything belonging to my parents, I cherish. Again, no one else care which breaks my heart because my parents have great-great children now! I would love anything that belonged to my ancestors, and I do have a few things. Again, no one wants them! It's so sad! My problem is that I think things are worth money, and some are, so I don't want to donate them. Yet, I'm physically unable to have a sale. I have a very large shed that is stacked literally from front to back with boxes that the moves put there in 2006! I really need the money, but I have no friends, and I'm afraid it would turn in to an episode on hoarders if I invited my nephews. They aren't as close to me as I am to them, and only two of the four speak to me. One speaks, but said he'd come to visit almost a year ago and hasn't. To sum it up, I'm old and alone! There are some resources for the seniors, but no the ones that provide relationships. Anyone that comes to help us, we are not allowed to do anything with outside of their normal duties. They can't even take me to the doctor! I need a friend, but what do I have to off one at this age? I get panic attacks even at my home so some things, some days I just can't do. It sucks, and I was dealing well, but now I want to have someone for companionship and to learn on and perhaps get a hug! Don't I deserve that? People don't want to get to know an old woman with depression and anxiety who is on her way out, but who knows when? I could live for 20 years! I love everyone and try to show it everywhere I go!

Tipping or giving tips over here in New Zealand, is not considered a common thing. It's belongs as part of the america culture, & over in the US. Sure if some people wish to tip alright, not for me. They'll see I like their business if they get repeat business from me or not.

One, who is John Cleese....Two, my jobs called for civil service written exams based on experience or school - high school or college. Three, you had to score in the high nineties out of a hundred score - scoring a hundred was a perfect score. Four, the incompetents were weaved out - during civil service written exams. Five, over ninety-nine percentage of all the other people who do my job were really good. Last, over hundred thousand people who still do my job are still good at it!

Drop the "Step" tag. Treat then as if they are your own biological grandchildren. They may not be of your blood but they are still your grandchildren.

Probably will turn the other cheek and forgive but will always be cautious and things between us will never be the same again!

By 'wanton' killing off of other species on this planet - most famous example is the dodo bird - we/humans have been playing GOD for centuries! If evolution actual works, then humans will permanently disappear from the planet - one day. Which will give other species the opportunity to thrive and the planet time to heal itself!

Is this your first baby or do you have others you need somebody to help with the care of them? Having visitors is tiring so you may need to set a time limit for everybody, unless maybe they offer to help with various household chores and you may be able to grab some rest while baby is asleep. I'm sure things like doing the washing would be helpful even better if you can sort it to the point of which room it goes in.............I would be grateful for casual help if it is a c-section as there is a lot of things you are not supposed to do......... That's when you need a granny flat to evict them to.

We all have individual lessons to learn in our life journey and sometimes it just isn\u2019t the right time for a relationship, and as noted by several of you, love can be rekindled. My circumstances were different, I found my life time partner in my early 50\u2019s, after several learning lesson experiences and two children, once those relationships ended, there was no going back!

Scammers are white-collar-criminals. White-collar-criminals ARE NOT severely punished as blue-collar-criminals in the USA (where I reside)! Are scammers going to be a regular problem going forward - YES (there are numerous ways to get anyone personal data)! The only person who can make it more difficult - for scammers to steal your money - is you. I do not use credit cards or my bank's debit card to pay bills online or offline. I do not use my bank's checks (since your account number and routing number is at the bottom of the checks - which is all the info a scammer needs to hack your bank account). I pay all my bills by USPS's money orders which are expensive - but they come with two receipts. I use cash for daily purchases. My credit score sucks - because I don't have any debt - but I have never been scammed/hacked (it is a constant juggling act to keep your monetary info security). Furthermore, I have a landline phone with twenty-first century technology but does not have an internet connection - my landline phone cannot be hacked! Other words, you have to make your digital footprints as small as possible - so a scammer will not (hopeful) notice your digital footprints online or offline.

The older I get, the less I care about what other people think of me! I care about the health, happiness and safety of my daughter, myself and our animals

My answer is that the same thing should be done unto them as they did to the animal, and it should be made public so everyone knows what type of person they are!!

I would say to them go for it I am always with you as your friend have a good time and enjoy your new life I will always be your friend no matter what you do

For Christ sake enough of the political correctness already..if you don't like Australia find another country to put up with your bullshit

It seems the tradie merely quoted and had not been given the go ahead. If there was no agreed price, I certainly wouldn't pay. from the facts you've given there was never a contract, verbal or otherwise.

We go hiking and often see parents take the children of all ages hiking. It is a great family time and extra curricular activities for them

And that\u2019s why I\u2019m not going to work today. I\u2019m sick and I don\u2019t want to get my seniors sick. Even if I need the money \ud83d\ude2d

no way everyone needs to start using cash again instead of cards. When the Internet drops out everything shuts down in a cashless society

Fertility in both males and females is dropping at a quite surprising rate...it might even be as high 5% or more per generation...I suspect the planet has had enough of us....

Like them all except for the ones that people dress up in stupid clothes and carry around in handbags.

Smiling faces sometime pretend to be your friend. Smiling faces show no traces of the evil that lurks within people. The TRUTH is in their 'eyes'. Their 'eyes' don't LIE!

Absolutely. Someone came knocking on the door, said he was collecting for the orphanage, so I gave him my 2 kids!

Not "child proof", but the tin cans with the pull tab lids are often extremely difficult to open. :-(

Mostly depends on genes and diet as to what size your body is to be. Some can be well overweight with no health issues others just have health issue no matter their body size. If you do daily exercise and eat mostly healthy go with the flow, don't let all the hype get you down as that will create more health [both mental and physical] issues that being over weight

Money makes everyone happy. If you have any spare, I am only too happy to take it.!!! Will give it a good home.

One day, not long after losing my favourite cat, and still paying off a big vet bill, a lady paid for my order at a McDonalds drive through. So now, every so often I pay for the car behind me.

Free speech (aka opinion) has never existed in the history of homo sapiens (PERIOD) - it is a FALLACY (aka a mistaken belief, especially one based on an unsound argument) - EXAMPLE: See civil (aka public) discourse in a SUPPOSEDLY Democracy (USA) on 01/06/ 2021?????

Because of racial segregation (DEEP SOUTH) - I was born in my parents' house - Blacks (AT THAT TIME) could not use the local hospitals (WELCOME TO AMERICA). It was touch-and-go for two weeks (MY MOTHER HAD TO PERFORM A CESAREAN SECTION OPERATION ON HERSELF) - obvious - my mother and me - survive the ordeal!

The "Middle Class" has already disappeared in Australia and it is entirely the fault of that same Middle Class! Once, and it is not so long ago, a young couple were content to get a modest loan and buy a modest house and then, as time went by, gradually buy a better house to accommodate their family, leaving their older, more modest house for younger people so that they, too, could start achieving the Great Australian Dream: A Home of their own. Then a New God, with absolutely nothing to do with religion reared it's evil head. Its name is GREED. No longer were those starting out content with that modest, affordable house. They wanted the Biggest House they could find. It was reported recently that Australia is building the Biggest House in the World. Not only do these younger people want the Biggest, Most Expensive houses they also want to have everything which opens and shuts and, preferably, without them having to lift a finger as it is all programmed, the lights come on so that the house is ablaze with lights when they get home, the Aircon is left on all day, the pool is ready, the garage is big enough to hold 2, 3 or 4 Range Rovers, Lexus, Mercedes and the children are returned by their ersatz parents to the parents who bred them. Every child Must have her/his own bedroom - no sharing.

Many years ago now...a prominent scientist in the area of radiation was employed by the mobile phone industry to finally and totally debunk the harmful effects of using a mobile phone...his final report was never used and he concluded that use of a mobile may result in some damage to the users brain...and in fact damage the user's DNA....that report is still available on line...and this was just for earlier mobiles ...not the smart phones that we cannot live without

When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when character is lost, all is lost. Everything in moderation, and there's a perfect balance in this life if we can find it.

Call me old school but, whatever happened to actually fundraising like selling goods and services to raise money for whatever the need is ?!?

Farming is an ancient and noble profession. David was a shepherd and Jesus was a figurative shepherd.

In an ideal world Kindness would always be followed by Gratitude. In today's "ME First. Last and Always" world, Kindness is not always followed by even an acknowledgement - a simple "Thank You" is enough. If you are a Male, try opening a door, or standing aside to let heavily laden woman in/out and the best you might get is a snarl or verbally abused for being condescending!

A smile costs nothing so why not use them? What I find Most Annoying are those customers who pay no attention whatsoever to the person serving them - particularly in Supermarkets. These Female & Male louts spend the entire time on their damned mobile phones - discussing, Sandra C, Their Private Lives, they make no attempt to respond to the Check-out operator, when the goods are put through they wave their phones over the eftpos terminal, wait long enough to see if their payment has been accepted (when not they blame the store staff & seem to think they are responsible for their credit/debit card being maxed out) then they simply walk away. No Smile. Most certainly NO "Thank You". It is the Customers who are so often extremely rude and if the indifference we sometime experience (it disappears when we speak with then thank & smile) irks then maybe we should remember those Serving us are Real People and it is as a direct result of OUR Indifference to them which makes them indifferent to us! One of the Most soul-destroying jobs and one of the lowest paid ones, are those unfortunate Women and Men who spend their day swiping goods past a scanner in our Supermarkets. Give them a Smile, Say "Hullo", "Good Morning/Afternoon" and Thank them for their Service - they do appreciate it and will respond in a Friendly way.

I’ve never had a day off in my life when I had a cold. Now I’m retired a cold never stops me doing what I want to do

should parents to be - need a license to raise children - YES - ask any kid(s) that has to deal with (mental cruelty - negligence - verbal abuse inflicted on them by their parents) - (sex abuse inflicted on them by their parents) - (physical abuse inflicted on them by their parents) - I GOT LUCKY - I am a survivor of physical abuse and (mental cruelty - negligence - verbal abuse) by my parents - surviving on the streets for four years as teen-ager - after becoming a teen-ager runaway - was a piece of cake - since returning home (as a teen-ager) was not a reasonable option - have not seen my parents in over 56 years and counting - BOTTOM LINE: BECAUSE TWO IDIOTS CAN BECOME A PARENT DOES NOT AUTOMATIC TRANSLATE INTO A FACT THEY WILL BECOME PARENTS !!! P.S. Society should have never ALLOWED my parents to become parents - UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!!

Sometimes I pay full price when I need something specific urgently otherwise I wait for sales especially online there is always a sale to be found.

Just sick of life is not fair, Kaz. In many cases it is severe mental illness. Does a person suffering from severe depression for decades not have the right to die? In the recent case, the Australian man was 103 years old. He was not in good health. I feel strongly about this as I worked for a quadriplegic, named Jo Ann Dolan, when I was younger. She fought for the right to die and an article appeared in "The Age". We have no right to interfere. I am sick and tired and people saying "people will kill their family for money". Stop hiding behind this BS as some people face suffering that we would not allow on a dog. They have the right to die and it is not your or my business.

Confiscate the dang thing, I've noticed kids destroy each other while the bloody zombie parents are staring at the phone without even flinching.

I've tried the alternative treatments for my issues but they just don't work. I have used alternative medications in the past but sometimes you need the pharmaceuticals

Here in Australia we are too reliant on things from Overseas. We need to go back to being self reliant! Start with food!!! Let's support our farmers who feed us!! We are already in WW3 - different way to kill people.

Governments like cashless societies...then they can keep a complete record on all your spending..and for those who don't have mobile phones they then also know when and where you have been....they just luuuvv surveillance.....

I think here in Australia we have been relatively lucky in comparison to other countries even with the idiots who flout the rules which have been put in place to nullify the virus effects. However, as I also live in Queensland we also have been left relatively free of the virus and our lockdowns have been limited. I do live on the border of NSW/Qld which causes angst but until this virus is under full control and it is safe to travel to other states I will be staying put. I have done my overseas travelling and visited many countries and although I loved it my sister who I travelled with has since passed and I have no further wish to travel without her. I am happy in my little bubble at the moment trying to keep away from the unmasked, unvaccinated, un social distancing people. I have family members with young children who live in Melbourne and Country Victoria now under lockdown and in isolation so am aware of the restrictive life they are under but they unlike many do not complain and realise it is safer to do so. Maybe this virus will be with us for years to come in some form or other and we will have to learn to live with it having yearly vaccines to protect us. Plans and dreams may have to be put on hold until there is a safe exit. Who wants to bring this virus home to their children, parents, grandparents and it seems now anyone can get it. We have a lot in hospital all under 30 and some under 5. We older people have at least realised some of our dreams and the younger ones will also be able to realise theirs maybe not this year but hopefully next year. Hang on to your dreams for now. Like the saying goes "it might not happen today but it will happen"

We need policies that put dollars into the pockets of people who cannot afford to buy their own home, so they have the money to do so. That way there would be little need for rentals, or for social housing either. My suggestion is to pay everyone a basic living wage (not means tested).

personally i think its a waste of time,i read a coulpe of weeks ago our PM said once international borders are down when we are all vaccinated,and all travellers coming are vaccinated to expect 1000 cases per week,we have never had 1000 cases per week before,so does this vaccine work or not? apparantly it only lessons the symptoms if you do get it,allegedly

Actually ban all cars. And ban those Lycra ridden cyclists too. I think horses would be better, or walking, or just normal people on riding bikes.

Listen to my mothee we r! Unfortunately trauma in my childhood gave low self esteem and nerves about everything. I messed up lots. But lm trying really hard to live in the moment have happy times with a positive attitude which really rubs off on those around you. I have well and truly learned this lesson \ud83d\ude0a\u2764\ufe0f

The people who complain about such things as being "revenue gathering", etc. are usually just the morons who want to do stupid things on the road. Public roads are not a playground - follow the rules or get off the roads! It's very very simple: if you don't do anything wrong, then you won't have to pay any fines / penalties.

Music is always a mood changer for both good and sad moods. I always say that music is a time line of our lives.We can hear a song And mostly remember the year or period of our lives.

my worst experience is when i first went to these new toilets in shopping centres getting in was ok but i neglected to see the big red sign and button that locked the door ,but half way into my business the door majestically opens the lady who opened it was aghast and took off while i sat there bare arsed on the toilet seat waving to the food court for what seemed like an eternity

My dad said to me if you want to drive you have to know how to change the tyre and change the oil and that was 45 years ago

I happened upon my old stamp collection this weekend . Then my mother's even older scrapbook ...all neatly labelled and arranged. Just opening that one..it SMELT of old Brittania !

Spend the card on things that you can resell or give as gifts. Don\u2019t let the store get the money for nothing.

Did I experience a career change? My career change came with my first job - I got a (federal) civil service job based on civil service exam score instead of having to take a job in the private sector! Was it worth it? YES! Am I happy with my choice? YES (my civil service retirement comes with a COLA every four years). Furthermore, I retired on 100% disability - aka my civil service retirement check is 100% tax free. Am I thinking about a changing career? NO (been retired over 20 years and counting) :-)!

Years ago my daughter wanted something off Amazon and I was ok with giving her my credit card number and I supervised her while she purchased online. Several months later I noticed for the previous 2 months $35 was coming out of my account for Prime that we didn\u2019t sign up for. Trying to get in touch with Amazon to question this, and try to cancel it was damn near impossible. I couldn\u2019t get through to anyone and due to my lack of computer skills I just kept going around in circles and it was extremely stressful! They ended up taking over $300 from my account, we never did use the Prime account and I never ever got reimbursed! And finally when the payments stopped (my daughter\u2019s Dad sorted it out for me)\u2026 \u2026.blow me down, the buggers started it up again the following year!!!! I\u2019ve not ever used Amazon ever again!!! They know they can get away with it to those who aren\u2019t tech savvy online. Still to this day I\u2019m owed close to $400 for a service we never used or even signed up for. 3 years on and I\u2019ve never used them again or even tapped the word Amazon into the search bar ever again!! Hate Amazon!!

Sorry 10 cats and I buy fresh and usually cook for them. Aldi brand is the only can food and raw meat they will eat.

I've completed my bucket list. And, yes, there is one thing that I can think of that I can do retired but not while working.... I can sleep in until 8 if I want to:) and be to bed when I want to, take a nap in the middle of the afternoon or even evening if I want to. Short answer - sleep.

Never did. But I do buy a dozen beer each Christmas for the rubbish collectors. Rain, hail or shine they still do their dirty work.

I\u2019m confused. I don\u2019t know what you are saying. I may be having a bad day but I\u2019m lost.

Why give a review, if the company are doing a good job they will get return customers. If they do a crap job they won't get any return customers. That should give them the information they require, no need to give special praise, they are doing the job they get paid to do, that's all the praise they should expect.

SO TRUE, IF YOU COULD HAVE ALL THE MONEY THAT WAS SPENT ON THIS DAY AND JUST HAD A SMALL ONE WITH TWO FOR FOUR FRIENDS OVER, THINK HOW MUCH MONEY YOU WOULD SAVE //////// $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ FOR MAYBE A HOUSE OR ANYTHING YOU NEED TO START YOUR NEW LIFE WITH THE MAN YOU LOVE. THANK YOU O/K MIKE

Thanks to email, I\u2019ve discovered that I have a big family in Nigeria, who are sadly all dying, but fortunately leaving me their money!\ud83e\udd23

I did a damned boring job myself for half a century and I was paid very little. After almost 30 years with the same employer I finally got a raise to $7.47 an hour and I was so proud. Then they dropped the bomb on me that same afternoon! My job description was being terminated and that meant after the layoffs and the rehiring began, I'd not be hired back again. Instead at age 59 in 2008 I was force retired and now I struggle with only SS and a tiny pension each month which si why I do asinine online surveys for next to nothing- just to live! $$$ USD is the important thing! Ask any team's players!

It's the usual nonsense that has not been properly thought through. 1. If people can do the same amount of work in one less day, then they are obviously not working properly now - too much slacking off. The company could enforce proper working and get rid of some of the workers ... saving money (not that the company would lower the prices of their products / services). 2. If people are working properly now and getting "stressed", then removing one day means they'll have to work harder to get the same amount of work done and get even more stressed. 3. If people are working properly now and a day is removed, less work will be done, so the company will have to employ extra people to fill in the gap ... and therefore raise prices of their products / services.
