Don't know if it's changed now, but a couple of years ago you were expected to report income online, but if you worked more than 30 hours then you couldn't report it online, you had to call them...

It'd be easier just to put in 29 hours every week...

So I get this letter about putting the incorrect things in the recycling bin.

Turns out the Neighbours from 2 doors down been putting stuff into our bins. Not really something to get peed off at. Except they put a bunch of crap in the recycling bin... WTF! And then they denied it when I showed them the letter...

However, I found the footage in the CCTV... which i also forwarded onto the council who sent me the letter.

I doubt I'll get any form of an apology.

Some of the stuff included old clothing, old pots and pans, and an old fire extinguisher.

How could I forget the other thing.

Geez the Collingwood Shop are slow.

Almost 2 weeks and they haven't shipped my order yet.

People who say always buy from the shop are spot on, because we're gonna miss the date if they dont arrive tomorrow which seems unlikely as they have not been shipped.

And ten bucks postage too. Rolling Eyes

That’s Ł$%$ed, but I’d be in a world of pain if our council cared! Although not so much the recycling bin, but did dump some crap in the regular bin that shouldn’t have. But even if dumping in the recycling bin, I always make suede the top is legitimate so it’s only if someone actually goes through it.

But both here and my old place in Bendigo I have noticed the contents of the recycling bin ended up in my regular bin which I assumed was someone going through the recycling for cans and bottles.

Couple of things I'd like to add to my list.

1. Already mentioned but worth a retake, nimrods who drive at 80kmh in a 100kmh zone. Take the handbrake off you Fwit or hand your licence back.

2. Breakfast places who can't get their timing right when delivering Coffee and food. Coffee should arrive shortly before the food. Shortly. Not half an hour before and certainly not after you've finished eating the food. It's not fkn hard.

3. Toyota Corolla Hybrid hatch. To be fair, it has nothing to do with it being a Hybrid and everthing about the designing. The C pillars are so fkn fat you can't see shit when trying to reverse out of a parking spot, you have to twist your head and stretch your neck like fkn Plastic Man to vainly try to get a glimpse of what might be coming to hit you. The reversing camera is shite, the wireless phone charger doesn't work, the USB phone charger is on the passenger side under and next to the glove box (I had to google it to find it) and the Android Auto doesn't work. The seat doesn't go up and down, I felt like I was sitting on the floor. Lucky I'm taller than average but still, getting out is like getting out of a bathtub. On the positives, it has surprising pickup for a little shitbox, goes from 80 to 120 in nothing flat and does have very good legroom for the driver, but if you gave me one and I wasn't allowed to sell it, I'd cut the roof off, fill it with dirt and put plants in it.
