Argh! :o
Also, having a flu/cold sucks! :(
Ugh the flu.... but id be more worried about the dusty mo-fo's! :DQuote:

I remember they were $250 RRP here.
There was one on EBAY from usa - $150USA ($135) postage up front.
I bidded up to a maximum of $200 USD and lost. Auction finished at 3am and I was zzzZZZZ.
It ended up going for $382 USD so a total of $532 posted to AUS :eek:
The only solace I can take was that this Devvy statue arms were broken and repaired in 3 places and it had scratches! They could have broken in transit.
Oh well - next time!
yeah palisades devy always seems to go for high prices i think the highest i have seen it go was 800ish usQuote:

This is singing to me...it sings 'buy me'...
Common sense tells me that it's too expensive and I will look like moron out on the street wearing it on but it looks so cool...

The full 'helmet' hood is what got me, look at the 2nd and 3rd pictures.
Buy it buy it! You wouldn't look like a moron if you wore it out in public, it's the lighting in that image that makes it stand out which makes it awkward, but if you wore that in places of people they wouldn't notice really as it looks like a motorcyclist jacket

I have this image in my mind that your TAFE is really posh, cos Sydney's Northbridge is a highly affluent suburb - similar to Perth's Cottlesloe.
Yeah, I know that suburbs in different cities with the same name doesn't mean they're comparable (e.g. Melbourne's Box Hill is an urban neighbourhood with shops etc. - Sydney's Box Hill is in the middle of nowhere surrounded by lots of nothing :p)
All the slots that hold pins in my toys are snapping, Classics Rodimus is the newest victim. He's going to be expensive to replace. Why does this happen? I'm not rough with them at all and am always careful.
Replace pins with toothpicks? Using a small drill make holes where the pins used to be and where the snapped parts are is there any way to anchor them out?Quote:

I have studied so crazily this week... still feel like its no hope... damn wills so much crap to study..
Its not the pins, its what holds them in place, the little plastic loop. Thats 2 it's happened to now, 3 if you include the one last year. Its like the hinge moves but stays in place tearing the plastic loop.Quote:

I think you and Defcon own one.
So I've been working on this big Counter Strike map recently, spent about +60 hours on it. Just tried to compile it then using the proper optimization method... ...it's still on stage 2/10 after about 2 hours. HOLY CRAP
Hahaha, I did that once when I was a kid when G1 Powerglide's pins fell out (although years later I managed to find them or get another one). Even with those fat round toothpicks, it's still heaps loose. :pQuote:

to those who prevented my vacation, f**** you. You can't replace that w/ money unless you give me a free vacation. but the timing may not work out :( even if you give me one.
I hate mondays.
We hate mondays.
And Sunday agrees for sure.

I hate it more when you have to treat people like dollar signs to get statistics!
Gah, also sorry to hear this mate. There are some real nasty pieces of work in the workplace at times. :mad:Quote:

Dude: How do I do that (this guy has been here for 4+ years)

Yeah, I'm in Perth. No idea which company it is, but it's not a big deal so much as a constant-yet-minor irritant.
Cheers anyway though.:)
EDIT - It's stopped, thank Heavens.
yeah... that does make it hard zippo
personally... i'd bail, unless it's your "dream job"... then fight like all hell.
i'm sure the laws in NZ are similar to here.
my wife went through some pretty full on bullying at work a little while ago. ( by her supervisor )
it was easier in the end to get a new job, but the new job has required a bunch of workplace training.
basically if she'd known back then what she knows now.... they'd be screwed.
my wife wants me to mention too that, you actually have alot more rights than you think you do.
anyways... goodluck mate
janda :)
Got the offical warning letter, the former HR manager of the company I work for was shocked at the outcome.
I have decided to end my employment at the company - 4 years of service means nothing to them and I want them to fail in providing a decent IT service now.
why would they make a 4th year engineering student make a poster?
the last time i made a poster for education i was about 14...
take them to the cleaners!!! whos to say the manager wont bully the next employeeQuote:
