    JJ. hang in there champ, I think we've all had similar experiences.

    As far as Big W go , hopefully the mark up on those cubby's were enough to break even. But still, you'd think people would be happy to receive a better item. . ( big W make enough as it is, Probably a small tax wright-off for them).

    I think the government doesn't help with ..dumbness?. e.g.
    No job= have some money
    No job +baby= have more money. (some people make a career out of this formula) (obviously study is a different story, your aiming to better yourself or others)
    I had one chick rent a property off us. $280 a week . So 4 weeks in advance,2 weeks up front.... she moved in and gave me 40 bucks. The gov paid the rest. She was there for 8 weeks, trashed the place ,I couldn't rent it for 6 months. I took what i could from the bond and fixed it.
    The gov sent me a letter a year later asking me for the bond money back that they had lent her ????? Now that's dumb. (they didn't get it back)

    Ever been screwed over for 50 bucks by someone who owns 6 waterfront houses... thats greed. (probably the type that want 2 refunds for the better cubby)

    best thing you could probably do is get a job where you don't have to deal with the public too much.

    Damn that bites! Yeah I was once living with some guys and one of them allowed 4 others to move in rent free with out paying for food or for bills. The spilt once I started to demand cash for the bills and then they split a few days later.

    Thanks to The Official Transformers Collectors Club, my credit card details were stolen and used for unauthorised purchases when I tried to register for the Botcon set with their faulty website.

    I am getting sick and tired of people doing bad jobs on stuff hey are meant to fix. I have had a plumber out twice to fix a leaky tap, and it is needing to be fixed again. This is will be the third time in three months.

    Tired of fixing registers that are supposed to have been fixed by an offiical IT guy who came over from the east to sort out.

    Tired of dealing with companies that like to take your money and give you bad products, thengetting aggro when you complain about the quality and try to get them to fix whatever the issue is.

    Is this the Australian way? It certainly feels like it.

    That sucks about your CC PB, better keep a very close eye on mine. That TFCC sure are an amateur bunch.

    Sounds like a pain. Does he know what is causing the leak. They would have to fix it proper this time?? , maybe re-seat it or change out the whole thing (not just the tap washer)

    I hope it's not the Australian way.
    Time after time you get someone in to do something, after they've gone you think " I could have done a better job" (with reno's anyway. I know nothing about I.T.)
    That sucks.

    When your the 2nd highest bidder on an item on ebay... then it turns up again a week later (listed by the winner) at double the price.

    It's out of town (Toodyay, 80k from Perth), hence the cheap rent.
    Sorry , we have a new tenant now. But who knows.
