    I actually really like her new song, "Been waiting". I think it's her best song.

    Social Networking Sites (Facebook etc) and Employment

    Obviously, it was because of the money. But you don't need to worry about that now because my days with them are over. I quit working for them and now I'm working at another workplace that IS SO MUCH BETTER. I don't care what happens to it because they honestly don't even deserve to be running...

    Dear CityRail

    It's not as bad as everyone makes it out to me? Please, they increased the price from $2.20 to $2.80 for Return tickets - is the service getting any better? No, so I don't see why we don't have a right to complain here. It's ridiculous for them to increase fares yet have the service constant. I...

    essays marking

    Definitiely more than one teacher marking - having teachers mark their own class' work for an assessment creates the possibility of unfair or bias marking, meaning the other class mgiht get better marks from a more lenient teacher. Unfair to you because it your rank might get affected.

    The worst job you've ever had?

    Re: What was the WORST place you've worked at? Tell me about it. Myer's the worst place in the world when it comes to customer service. Ambermorn, I find it strange that I keep seeing old hags working there. They always give you this bitchy look. I'm so over the Clothing Departments. And why...

    Jobs other than retail/food sector for a HSC graduate?

    Fast Food is a terrible job. Please don't go for it... It'll ensure no new trainees are taking all my shifts away.. LOL I'm a workaholic, and I love my workplace to bits.. In all honesty though, right now with the job market as it is, you can't choose to be picy with what jobs you get. Even...

    The worst job you've ever had?

    Re: What was the WORST place you've worked at? I'm 16. JJ is a very nice guy but he didn't speak up for us crew when we weren't paid properly on NYD. I know at least 3 other people who should've got double time but didn't.. I didn't get a break on NYD. Oh, and here's what else pisses me off...

    The worst job you've ever had?

    Re: What was the WORST place you've worked at? I started work there in December last year, at the start of the holidays. The manager Tarah is a lazy manager who most people hate. Christoffer "Pico" is a cheap store manager. Listen to me - I worked NYD for 6 and a half hours and he payed me no...

    The worst job you've ever had?

    What was the WORST place you've worked at? What's the worst place you've ever worked? Share the details of the management, and how it was like working there with the crew, the cleanliness.... etc. I landed my first job at McDonalds Liverpool F/C. It was the WORST place I've ever worked at. The...

    Cycling on the Road

    How? Some drivers just don't pay attention, or are too busy talking on their cell phones to notice bicyclists. And a lot of driving manuals don't actually cover the law in relation to cyclists. Sometimes when you give hand signals, drivers don't know what they are. Taken from the RTA NSW website:

    Cycling on the Road

    Excuse me for being cautious in case I get swiped by the unexpected drain on the far left of the lane. And by NSW Law, I'm allowed to take up a whole lane to myself if I need to.

    What are some basic road rules for cyclists who ride on the road? And can a cyclist ride in front of a motorist?

    The McDonald's Thread

    I have a seven hour shift on SUNDAY! LOL, why couldn't it be the Saturday? Hmm, guys, are they gonna ask me to have a break? I know my old place did it all the time, not sure about my new one. But I'm so glad to start work next week, I've been broke for weeks.

    Social Networking Sites (Facebook etc) and Employment

    I run a blog and I post on forums, and I regularly posted negative comments about my previous workplace. Should I be terminated for disclosing a public opinion that's negative? No, I don't think so.

    URRGH! VA Teachers are SO clueless

    I just think that if a teacher doesn't understand advanced English and marks you down because they don't understand your Essay, it's the teacher's fault and not the student's, so the student shouldn't have to be penalized for that. And secondly, I spoke to him about it, and asked him why I got...

    URRGH! VA Teachers are SO clueless

    The other teacher was my Photography Teacher, and she's always been a good marker, and she tells me how I could improve. My current VA Teacher can't even give me feedback, so that should tell you something. :mad1: I just think, you know, that it's always been a school policy for just one...

    URRGH! VA Teachers are SO clueless

    I'm getting sick of my Visual Arts teacher. He's so clueless. I use sophisticated language in my essay then he suspects me of plagiarism because "the manner in you speak is different to how you write" - Well of course, sir! The way we speak everyday and our language used in our writing is always...
