What are the chances of getting a government job in Toowoomba or surrounds?

I want to move out of Brisbane. I used to work for a SA call centre now i work in an aged care call centre for home packaging. I'm at an AO3 level, done payments and claims, etc. I basically just want to work in an office doing admin shit and answering calls. Another area would be compliance.

Best saving ideas?

I've always been terrible with money, I've worked jobs making 55k p/y and jobs making 100k+ p/y also been unemployed or student making fuck all money. Job hopped a lot and travelled. I just did whatever. Now that I am older I am actually taking money and working seriously. I'm currently in an entry level job at 70k p/y with potential for higher paying position later and 0 savings. After student debt and tax I get like $2166 p/f, now I just spent money on bills i have $1200 left for the next 2 weeks. My tax return will be a couple of grand if the student debt doesn't get me.

Currently I am trying to save for a cheap car to buy out of pocket, because I don't want to finance things. I'm trying to stay long-term in my current job or look for a government job in a regional location- hence I definitely need a car. I would prefer the regional option because the houses and rent are cheaper and I don't like living in the city, though in the meantime save with the current job then peace out after an offer + saving some more money so I can move away easier.

For those who are married, in a relationship, or dating. How much do you find your partner cares about your body hair?

3 areas of concern for me is my ass, area on my back, and stomach. In the past I tried laser treatment yet it didn't work while I find waxing too painful, and shaving too far or often causes irritation in certain areas. I don't leave things massively hairy e.g I shave my legs, tidy/trim areas, etc. With good hygiene. Though I want to start dating and I don't want to hear shit from a guy who is naturally more hairy than me. I also actually like body hair on men and beards.

Yes I deleted the app, I haven't been on dating apps in almost 5 years and the same people are still on them. There's no effort, people who want to smash don't even have anything appealing to offer, the ones looking for relationships put low to no effort in yet think people should date them. Some loser kept asking about my job, then wanted to apply to it so I told him I would get him signed up for the onboarding bonus, and he got offended. Some of them put 0% effort in life and expect a fully commented relationship for existing with no benefits in dating them. The conversations are dry and repetitive.

I actually started lifting weights again after encountering that shit. My options are: meet someone through work or friends, or become consciously celibate because online dating is terrible.

I have a coworker who is like late 40s to early 50s old who gets offended by everything. I am not the only person he does it to e.g there was another coworker in his 20s that the 40 year old coworker offered to hug, and the guy said 'no' and coworker was like 'aw, is it because i am gay?' Where the guy had to explain to him its because he doesn't like hugs- yet i don't think you should have to explain to your 40+ year old coworker why you don't want a hug from them.

Same guy has done things to me like offer me stuff I don't want e.g home baked cake, charging cords then gets offended when I don't want them, when I didn't want his questionable cake he started muttering under his breath. My dad thinks I should just take a slice of cake when offered next time to keep the peace and I am tempted to take it, then directly throw it in the bin with the coworker watching. On Friday the coworker shoved a box of tissues into my face where I waved my hand side-to-side and shook my head in a 'No' motion as i had my headset on and I was in a call. He immediately started complaining that 'you don't need to be rude about it *just* so you know' I ignored him. Because he wasn't getting the attention he wanted he directly started talking to me to tell me how he feels and he thinks I was shooing him away, I said 'it means NO' and I didn't elaborate or explain further.

Often it feels as if he expects you to explain yourself to him as to why you don't want what he offers to make him feel better, about the perceived rejection. I am a believer if you offer someone something and they don't want it, its perfectly fine for them to say no. Though this guy constantly wants reassurance and attention, or he will start being passive aggressive. Another factor is he walks behind our screens to check our clients, looks them up then criticises our notes, polices our time, nags you, and tries to monitor the workflow- he is not in management he has only worked here 3 weeks earlier than me. If you ignore him or tell him no, he starts getting bitchy. I've muted him on teams and don't acknowledge him besides saying good morning and good afternoon or hello/goodbye. which is upsetting him further. Like he saw me sitting alone before work then approached me to start talking to me about work, I said okay then took a selfie then he started complaining about me taking selfies. He also got upset because I talk to another coworker from work on social media.

Its hard to type out yet its not screaming and yelling but a passive aggressive type of behaviour, where he can just switch up suddenly. He often starts it more when the manager leaves.

▲ 5 r/uber

I got uber. It was raining and I was rushing to get in, I didn't immediately notice the driver. He didn't look at me or speak to me, while driving i realised he wasn't the driver in the profile.

Worth reporting? And how? It isn't a prompt on the app
