It’s my IRL birthday today! YAY!

I’m having to work it for the first time in probably 14 years because workplace is shit. BOO!

Going into the city for a staycation tonight. YAY!

Happy Birthday.

Hope work breezes by and you have a wonderful staycation!

Thank you - not how much work will actually get done...

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago

I haven’t done much. Just spent about 40 to 50 mins chatting to the receptionist here.

I better do stuff to look like I’ve done something.

Thank you!! Good luck with getting a kick ass offer!

Thank you :)

Toshiba is putting one together but I'm getting the vibe that its lower than my current salary. Not worth the jump if it's not at least 10% more.

Hippo birdies! 🍫🌻

[–] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 2 points 1 week ago

Now I'm picturing a hippo the size of a bird and a bird the size of a hippo but also a weird mix and I love you for the imagery.
