WGMG: Having to move nearly everything in the house so that the carpets can get cleaned.



When i first moved to Aus, i found this to be one of the weirdest things ever. We hired a cleaner and they told us that we have to move everything if they want that area cleaned. And they would just rush in and rush out, sometimes we couldnt even move the bed back in time, they couldnt care less. It likes, "wtf, its your job to do a proper clean, im not here to move shit for you"
You need to move shit to get an even clean, so when you move out the carpet doesnt need replacing. They put the onus on you to move shit... A) Because its YOUR SHIT, and generally most household are dirty and untidy as fuck; B) They could make you sign liability waivers in case shit gets damaged or goes missing, but theyd still cop whingeing dicks when something does go wrong; and C) They're cleaners, not removalists. It's an added time and cost that clearly the industry can't be bothered with. They can earn more money in a day doing several jobs without moving stuff than a single job that requires furniture removal.

Yeah i figured, its all about getting more jobs in the day. Just not use to the style they do it. In Zim, the cleaner would come out and do a proper job. Take his time to move stuff and move it carefully and properly, then do the cleaning. Different laws though, more liability here if the cleaner damages something i guess. Guess houses in Zim are also generally cleaner as you have maids and/or gardeners.

Hahaha, well actually, we dont have a Zim dollar anymore, so there you go.




When it was $14,000,000, that was pocket change.

WGMG: I login automatically to my PSN account on my PS3. I don't know my password and I need it to link it to my COD account so I can actually get the stuff I paid for from the hardened edition. Tried 'forgot my password' but it asks for my date of birth which I apparently lied about.

WGMG: People with the mentality that if they don't like something they are just dismissive and assume it's shit, I mean for example I'm a bit of a film fan and watch a lot of films or shows I don't necessarily enjoy but I can still appreciate quality when I see it.

Given that you're of legal age to do whatever you want, why would you put a different age in?

WGMG: Got asked to run in a 4x400 realy at athletics on Friday night for Canning Districts Under 18's. Which is awesome, except my best time for a 400 is 58.2 seconds, and the rest of my team are all sub-55 runners. So I'm nervous about letting them down.
