In the old days of 5 days a week in office, people would only grab a coffee or snack/lunch once or twice a week.

In the new world, with people coming into the office twice/thrice a week, they now grab coffee/lunch every office day as a treat, with the extra costs being offset by less spent on transport.

Also, this is just another step in the wrong direction climate wise. Aren't we meant to be reducing transport and our carbon footprint? Maybe first focus on improving public transport before making statements such as these that will inevitably lead to more vehicle traffic and congestion onto our roads.

Is the game any good? Been on my radar for a. Bit, but still needing to finish mount and blade bannerlord. Not sure if this game is different enough to warrant it.

Watching from over here in New Zealand and if your reply to the thoughtful comment above you is - "he didn't raise minimum wage enough" - 1. You don't understand jack shit about economics, and 2. You forgot to adress all of the other points raised. But oh, your threatening to go vote against your own interests to spite this anonymous dude online.

You are everything that is wrong with this world and I'm glad that I live far enough away that it won't affect me. Fuck you and do what you want.

Fuck my mate who went out for a fish with us whilst sick.

If you're sick just stay home. I'm tired of this convoluted game of germ tag we keep playing.

Can we just all agree that the majority of the actions the current gov is focusing their time and effort on are dragging this country backwards?

Is there anyone who's able to say fuck yea to all actions the coalition are completing?

Like my family is a bit more on the right then me, they definitely voted for one of the three parties, but even they are like "what the fuck" to half the shit that they are doing.

I'd be surprised if they extend their reign at the next election.

Vodafone just let us know our fibre bill will be going up by 6$ a month, citing their costs changing.

Shouldn't fibre costs decrease overtime as it gets more users and achieves economies of scale?

Vaquitas are the smallest of all the living cetacean species measuring between 1.2 and 1.5 meters (4-5 feet). They are only found in the Gulf of California and it's thought there are just 10 left, down from around 30 in 2017. The reason for this decline in the population is due to fishers using gillnets, a specialized flat net used for the illegal hunting of totoaba fish, which are sold into the lucrative traditional Chinese medicine black market

It's messed up that we have to put a number on body parts for insurance reasons, but it sure should be a hell of a lot more than just over $1k

I'm all for innocent until proven guilty, but man it would take some good explaining as to how she and her kids survived her own dinner.
