If you are referring to at roundabouts, there is none (or very minimal) in the US.
We dont have a give way to the right rule in Australia, except at uncontrolled four-way intersections (extremely rare) and four way stops (also rare).

Americans do have a give way to the left rule at four-way stops. Their road rules for roundabouts are the same as ours - give way to traffic already in the roundabout.

'Casually sophisticated' means relaxed, but carefully put together as such. i.e. relaxed as a conscious design aesthetic, rather than just naturally relaxed.

I would assume anyone who referred to a house in such terms is a real estate agent.

> Looking for work
> Agency sent me out to this place for an interview. Agency said they liked me etc etc but they are not sure when exactly they will need me
> Knowing agencies that could be never
> Get a call last night from another agency (which seems more organized) on Seek saying they liked my CV etc etc and then explained they role they are looking to fill
> "Hang on, this role is exactly the same one I went to with the other agency" which isn't really uncommon. For some reason big companies tend to use more than one agency
> Do I say to the new agency that the old one have already sent me for an interview etc etc?
> New agency I'm guessing will want to send me out to the company for another induction and they'll probably work out it's the same guy as last time
> Don't care which one I go through but don't want to stuff it up with both of them as I need the $$$

Wut do

Can't you contact the company directly? I hate agencies.
Everyone does but the company only goes through agencies. Big company too

My options are.

a) Go back for another interview/induction. I think this is stupid but my Dad thinks it will show how much I want it if I turn up twice
b) Tell agency I have already been sent there but will go through them if they can get me work (there or somewhere else) quicker.

Maybe just try b first and if they're not keen go with a. Not much choice really if you need the job.

Why does some songs take a few listens for you to like?

A lot of times, I listen to a song, discard it, but then listen to it for a 2nd, 3rd maybe even 4th time and then I really like it.

Wtf happened
