  • This may be Australia specific, but do job postings not spell out what they want in other countries?

    Like, job postings in Australia (these days) are: this is the job, here are the key selection criteria, please provide us a resume and cover letter (or just a resume, or cover letter optional, etc). Even down to maximum number of pages sometimes.

    They just tell you, and part of the way they weed people out is if they fail to follow what’s written (simple way to weed out anyone paying no attention).

    Do other countries just have to GUESS what the recruitment managers want at each company?





  • Then you are willfully ignoring the powers that your government has.

    You’re not wrong to say it’s all being influenced to the point of almost total control by the people with the money, but it’s not correct to say that both parties are equivalent and will pursue the same policies. Or that voting makes no difference.

    It absolutely does matter, and you’re either being disingenuous, or getting high on some copium.

    Please go vote, Jesus





  • Society has reinforced that women should be passive, and even after much progress on that front in general, somehow this still applies in some people’s minds.

    I would guess.

    No biggie though, depends what you personality traits you yourself are looking for, if being proactive is one of them, then I guess you haven’t missed out 😅

    And if you weren’t interested and the friend is yelling at you angrily, that’s mega questionable. Last I checked, no one is obligated to be interested romantically in anyone else…


  • I fundamentally disagree (on a social level). Social dance mfers don’t even start until 9:30PM, most people rock up at 10:30PM

    This some oppressive shit if you want to be up at 7 if that’s your body clock.

    I want to sleep hombre.

    I want to be up with the sun friend.

    Where are my 6PM socials. Hurt.


  • While I know that these days, bugs in code can cause real-world harm (personal info leaks, superannuation records lost, lol google), I find it humorous to think of the equivalent, even worse outcomes in my discipline (chemical/process engineering).

    “Didn’t do any checks, fuck it, I know this calculation is fire 🔥”
