Society & Culture Your first world problems

Had Pho for lunch, love it. Only have it once a week now and get a small serve as i'm trying to drop a few, the place I go to the small is still plenty enough (when not being a pig ha ha)

Yeah, they can be pretty filling but for the most part they are healthy at least.

Yeah it's not too bad but the carbs in the rice noodles are the issue I guess. Being in Vietnam was great, you get it served for breakfast there!

I'm on a ****ing work call now because the delicate flowers in India don't want it too early and complained previously. So we have to dial in a dinner time so they can have it at 13 ****ing thirty!?

Was 11 AM too early for the dears? Feeling sorry for people in NZ on this thing.

And they're ****ing late.

And I bet they will just talk bullshit for 45 minutes and there will be 30 seconds a needed information that could've been email or relayed.

****ing corporate machine!

Urgh, this is such rubbish

Getting a bit pissy about not being able to go on an overseas holiday, really...

I have a laptop at work with an external keyboard, my earphones plugs into the side of the laptop so i either need to run the cord underneath or to the side of the keyboard. The cord isn't very long either so I feel like I'm chained to the laptop.

Should i ask my employer for Airpods so I can watch bullshit Youtube videos while I work?

If you use the phone for work then just tell them you need the pods for posture

You? Or someone else?


If i was 21-25, wanting to travel the world, i'd be filthy af. Now im 40 and been around the world twice + one "there and back to USA" i couldnt care less about not being able to go OS.

 

[Poetic Justice]

Me. I guess I more meant a trip to Bali than Euro holidays. I'm 35 and have been to Europe twice so not itching for that kind of thing.

And I know I can go within Australia, but dollar for dollar can't argue with Bali or other similar destinations.

Yeah can understand that.

Places I'd love to go here incl Broome, Alice/NT, FNQ. Costs an arm and a leg tho. So I'll just go beach places around Vic.

Sisters fiance is giving me/ making me store a gym bench /bar/weights because he bought it on a whim and has no intention of getting in shape. I already have my own equipment and a gym membership. Going to have to make room in the garage

I'm very hungover and can't be bothered doing any work today.

Watching a show about toddlers having tantrums and they are trying to break one's dependence on the dummy.

First world problem.

Try breaking the dependence on the boob, that has resulted in blood spilt and chunks of flesh going missing. Wish that was as easy to break.

Get married and you will slowly get weaned off the boob.

My company has been acquired, my December expenses were not approved in time so I need to re-enter them into the parent companies system, going to take a few hours.

 

[Cruyff14]

Having to work on my laptop rather than my PC with two screens as I am getting a DNS error and cannot connect.

Ever since my battery got changed in my car, the reverse camera takes an extra 10 seconds to start up so I either have to wait or turn my head to back out

 

[Stratton_Gun]

Also, maybe not the right thread but I bread the median wage for Aussie's (including casuals) is around 50k. Surely not? I'm never one to worry about money but I would have thought it was like 80k

[Cuzz09]

ever since I got my battery replaced I lost my radio. Dont know my code and cant look it up anywhere.

Been over 6 months without radio in the car.

U get used to it. Be one with my thoughts more.
