Been in my job for almost a year. When I was interviewing I got told there would be two people in the role. Of course when I started there was only me. I feel like a bit of resentment has been brewing and had I known at offer stage I would have negotiated the salary. Whilst for the most part I like my job and have a good manager and team the commute is almost an hour and a half from door to door…. I don’t know if I should bother asking for a pay increase (doubt i’ll get what I want would be an extra $10K) or look somewhere else thats closer to home or at least with an easier commute. I was going to bring it up in my performance review last week but kind of chickened out because I haven’t bee

The last time I saw this friend everything seemed fine and she said how she was going to send a text to everyone about her birthday dinner, this was in may. Found out last night she did have her birthday “event” wasn’t a dinner more an outing during the day and I wasn’t invited. Must explain why the last time I tried to initiate a catch up she didn’t seem interested….

Im not sure why and i’m kind of hurt. Ive spent the last week trying to figure out if I get her a gift and try to do something for her birthday like take her out to brunch etc I think after this i’ll leave it at just text msg. Her actual birthday is not until next week.

Have this friend who I believe is quite insecure in her friendships and sometimes I never know what i’ll get with her when I reach out. Sometimes she’s keen othertimes she’s flaky or shows zero interest and is kinda dry. I reached out to her a few weeks ago trying to make plans to catch up and while she seemed keen at first when I suggested alternate plans in case the weather was bad and confirmation of the day she wanted to do something she took a week to reply saying she didn’t see the msg but never apologised or tried to reschedule. So I said another time. I could read between the lines she wasn’t interested.

Their birthday is coming up and I’m someone who will usually make an effort fo

I purchased this brush many years ago and I love it for cream bronzer and blush. It’s on its way out now and I think they have discontinued it 😭 Would love if anyone has any recs that are similar?

TIA xx

I have a guy friend who asked if I was free one night and I said I don’t have plans why? He said he had a voucher ($200) and wanted to book a set menu for two people (me and him). I already felt bad he was using it on me and him and I suggested he should use it on something else (he could of used it for so many different things that wasn’t food related) now he is kind of throwing it in my face that he is taking me to this “fancy” place and next time I owe him a free meal to make up for it. I was already planning on buying him a drink to say thank you but I also never asked him to invite me / use it on me and now it’s feeling a bit too transactional for my liking.

Bit of a rant. Took an AL day today and just gotten a msg on teams from a colleague in regards to only something I can do. My OOO is clearly on. Which they either saw and ignored or genuinely didn’t see it. I was thinking about replying but figured I have done enough over time this week and they weren’t worth my time, it can wait til monday.

Been eyeing glossier perfumes but wanting to know if Mecca do samples for perfumes?

TIA :)

Have a friend who i’ve been trying to catch up with for months and I always kind of be like to them “let me know when you’re free to catch up” bc ever since they got into a relationship they seem super busy which is usually a given. I get it.

Now that we’re all on holidays she’s reached out being like “i’m free sometime next week” and I said I was too and to let me know when suits them and all they did was react to the msg. i’ve gotten to the point where I cbf even bothering bc it seems too hard like I know people are busy but I sometimes get the vibe with this friend i’m the last min convenient friend when they have nothing better to do so they decide to hit me up. Like do you seriously no

Not sure if this is the best place to ask but I am after a kind of all rounder gym shoe recommendations pls :)

I tend to just walk on the treadmill/ stair master / occasional dumbbells + weight machines.

This friend and I use to text a bit and then they got into a relationship and I stopped hearing from them for awhile. The relationship didn’t pan out so he is back to making an effort with me again but only ever seems to call me and never texts me. Alot of the time he calls at inconvenient times when I am busy and never leaves context as to why he is calling when I don’t answer. When I do call him back he says “oh we could have gone out but you don’t answer your phone”….. but then he can send me photos (aka text msgs) about where he is but then can’t text me asking if I want to go out to brunch with him??? I told him if he really wanted to do something with me he could of texted me and then

Was at my previous job for 5 and a half years so I’m not a job hopper but been at a new job that I was a bit mislead on. Zero communication, no structure etc. Feel like I also made the mistake of taking a job I have to commute to everyday by car as opposed to my last job I caught the train. It’s just more car maintenance + tolls + petrol that i’m not sure the pay increase is worth it.

Still keeping my eye on what else is out there out of curiosity that’s easier to get to via public transport and there’s a few things I want to apply for in the public service and other jobs. Not sure what to put on resume and say in interviews? Should I just say I took a job break or act like i’m still at my

Is it worth travelling from western sydney for? 😂

Started at a new job today. Feeling extremely overwhelmed and wondering if I made the right decision to leave my old job I was essentially underpaid at. I left for more money mainly. Anyone else felt the same on their first day? I’m sure it’s common but would love to hear some more positive stories from people who felt the same on their first day and how they are doing now!

Loveeee her waves / curls on the show and would love to know how to recreate them!
