Interview done - went as well as it could have done, once I had to stop because my voice shook but she reassured me and I took a deep breath and went on.
A lot of the questions I’d prepared she didn’t ask and a couple she asked I hadn’t anticipated, but I got through them just fine and she could see how I’d think on the fly and (I hope) knew my stuff.
She said I’d probably hear by the end of the day, so fingers crossed!- Seagoon_ ( @Seagoon_@aussie.zone ) 4•11 months ago

I did make da McDonald’s dis morning coz i am a certified tight-arse. Egg and sausage macburger deluxe macmuffin with unlimited hash browns (2 per person) and a bottomless instant coffee.
I did learn if one touches the inside of a hot airfryer wiz ze fingies one can become a human car alarm.
- useless_modern_god ( @useless_modern_god@aussie.zone ) 4•11 months ago
Once again you have my attention. Tell me about the sausage component please.
- CEOofmyhouse56 ( @CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ) 6•11 months ago
Fry up these babies
- useless_modern_god ( @useless_modern_god@aussie.zone ) 3•11 months ago
Interesting. The sausage flavour of the mcmuff is really hard to replicate, however, several years ago I found a butcher that offered “breakfast sausage” (whatever that means.) It tasted exactly like the McDonald stuff.
Have not been able to locate any since. It’s a very specific flavour that eludes me to this day.
Your version looks great though and making me hungry.
- CEOofmyhouse56 ( @CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ) 3•11 months ago
It is hard to replicate and these are the closest I have found that takes the least effort. Saying that I haven’t had a mcmuffin for years now so I’m not sure how far off I am.
- Thornburywitch ( @Thornburywitch@aussie.zone ) English5•11 months ago
Nagi comes good again egg & sausage mcmuffin fakeaway
- useless_modern_god ( @useless_modern_god@aussie.zone ) 4•11 months ago
Thanks might try those tomorrow.
- CEOofmyhouse56 ( @CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ) 3•11 months ago
I think Woolies have a version too. Let me know how it goes.

I hung up my new solar lamp outside. Is pretty.
Hopefully it holds up to the weather OK.
- CEOofmyhouse56 ( @CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ) 3•11 months ago
That is beautiful. We have lights too for the sole purpose of not stepping in dog poo
lights
Little dog likes to line them up on both sides of the car.

Just a friendly reminder that cooking gyoza at 2:30am is natural, healthy and perfectly normal.
- Seagoon_ ( @Seagoon_@aussie.zone ) 11•11 months ago
Also, racism and anti-Semitism of some fam members is so subtly expressed. Most know it’s wrong, that’s why they state it in passive aggressive ways. 🤬 The stupid ones just repeat shit they hear on Fox. Then there are the ones with “inside” knowledge. 🙄
I’m so sick of the petty hate.
- landsharkkidd ( @landsharkkidd@aussie.zone ) English5•11 months ago
I hated experiencing that when my ex-stepdad used to live with us. It always gives me such uncomfortable feelings and so jarring too.
Glad he’s not here any more, though not saying that I myself am perfect, but doing my best to unlearn a lot of it that’s just imbued in our culture. So I sympathise with you a lot.
- SituationCake ( @SituationCake@aussie.zone ) 4•11 months ago
My family is full of them. Partners family is full of them. They know my thoughts but they have safety in numbers at family gatherings so don’t hold back. Not looking forward to Christmas and hearing everyone’s opinions on the voice. Or Gaza. Puts me in a shit mood for the holidays every single time.
- Seagoon_ ( @Seagoon_@aussie.zone ) 3•11 months ago
I suspect the racists/idiots etc can detect my utter dislike and contempt for their views. And yet I listen to them carefully and try to understand what they are saying and why. Something they never seem to reciprocate.
in a way I do not enjoy these discussions at all.

There’s a blue tongue lizard chillin next to my water heater tank outside. Lilttle dude is just basking and loving life.

I mixed sour cream and Philly cream cheese into my scrambled eggs mix. They’re fluffy and delicious!
- Thornburywitch ( @Thornburywitch@aussie.zone ) English3•11 months ago
Yes. Philly is a good ingredient - the Sopranos got that bit right. For eggs, if you like em super fluffy, try mixing the beaten egg with some of the ‘water’ from around a can of corn kernels instead of milk/cream/philly - makes scramblies and omelettes super super fluffy.
- useless_modern_god ( @useless_modern_god@aussie.zone ) 9•11 months ago
Feet up. Beer open. Game console on.

Do you what’s good about being a CEO? I tell my workers that I’m leaving the room and when I get back there better be music on. I don’t care who or how just make it happen.
- wscholermann ( @wscholermann@aussie.zone ) 8•11 months ago
So much stuff I would love to buy at the moment but given the interest rate environment I’m trying to exercise self restraint.
- SituationCake ( @SituationCake@aussie.zone ) 4•11 months ago
Discount season is not far away. Make a wish list and wait for the Black Friday or Boxing Day sales?
- wscholermann ( @wscholermann@aussie.zone ) 1•11 months ago
I have some very specific items in mind. Let’s see if the retail gods grant my wish with some deep discounting.
