Given that most students get to university and still have no idea how to do in-text referencing properly I think it's probably right that it's mandatory.

Hell i'd take that, sounds fantastic.
Research, 1. Find good academic journals.
2. Find good libraries.
3. stake out said libraries, take notes.
4. draft essay.

Piece of piss.

And for those not planning on going to uni?

Because we all know that when making vital life choices about one's future at the age of 18 nobody has ever made a mistake or changed their mind.

It's still a useful skill to have in the event that you change your mind and turn to tertiary education later in life.

I hate referencing. Worst thing ever.

Still remember my year 12 law teacher completely losing his shit at no one knowing how to reference. :lol:

WGMG: working at Hurstville tomorrow. Treck.

Your argument rests on this fact, where'd you find it?
I dunno.

My argument would stem from having to memorise SQL, Java and many other HR and Commerce related things to care about what the difference between p. and pp. is

Dont remember having that as an option in NSW 10 years ago, but does sound like an awesome option until procrastination kicks in for 3 terms

I'd have jumped at the chance to take it as a class when I was in High School.

Same .actually doing that right at the moment for the building course . Just print PDFs and brochures and that my friends is an assignment
Wgmg: washing my and having to redo it .

The main thing I hate with referencing is when you find an important point but forget where you got it from or can't find an adequate resource to draw that point from.

It's up to the FFA to make the investment in the health of the league. They need to restore referee integrity. And also evaluate their recruit and employ people suited and committed to the role.

WGMG: Sick as a dog, :(

Probably would get scaled down shitloads though :lol:

People who deliberately light fires in dangerous fire conditions

the punishment should not be a fine, or prison

It should be The Cane!

And I shall be more than happy to dish out the lashes myself!

WGMG: Trackwork on the Eastern Suburbs line on Saturday. I hate catching buses to games.

WGMG: my boss isn't happy with me. She thinks I didn't get enough done yesterday. The fact is I messed up one thing (not too badly, but it left her with some work to do), but the other thing she blames me for was out of my control.

WGMG: Trying to get back in the habit of watching my nutrition during a slow work period. Have spent most of this week daydreaming about chocolate and it's making the days drag >_>

WGMG: Apparently it's OK to post images of gore and people being decapitated on facebook as long as you "don't glorify it". But boobs are a reportable offence. Go figure

Wgmg: my cousins partner committed suicide. This is 6-12months after my cousin lost his arm in a car accident. And 4 years after his mum passed away. There can only be one thing on his mind right now, and the entire extended family is working in overdrive to prevent it

Fuck.

Jesus. Thats horrible.

That has got to suck. I remember reading a good quote about suicide. Something along the lines of, "Suicide does not end the chances of life getting worse, it eliminates the possibility of it ever getting better".

WGMG: My current job. Boss has become a real bitch and they starting to piss me off. I couldn't agree to one thing on the new roster policy so now they making me suffer by reneging on the policy and making me work shifts that they know I could not commit to when I first started. Would love to leave but still having no luck on the job search front.

WGMGEM: Can never remember whether full stop comes after quotation marks or before.

THIS THREAD WAS CLOSED!!!!

Best of luck mate

My life was nearly over :lol:

Timing much

Yeah.... That was poor timing...

But it wasn't a joke aimed at someone's unfortunate circumstances. Not in the slightest.
