4 I’ll say.

…what movie is that?

Did you read? What are you reading?

That sounds tough. You are putting some good strategies in place for yourself though, I hope it gets better!

So I am leaving my job and this is my last week. I am 2nd in charge, but my manager has taken this week off. So I am acting manager for this last week and did not get a handover for the work. So I am spending my last week trying to manage it all and catch up of the work that was left hanging as well as my own. I also catch 3 trains to get to work over an hour away (one of the reasons for leaving) and today my train was delayed mid way for an hour because the police needed to remove a passenger. I also had to submit a 32 page report to exit a staff member who has literally been getting paid to do criminally negligent work. I’m tired. But my staff are great. I am at a train station now and I miss my dog.

Probably a few times a week.

I didn’t realise this was a thing.

I am here. I managed to not return to Reddit, and now would only go there to look up something specific, and not as a signed up member. I make do with Lemmy. I am hoping it grows too.

I think in a lot of cases they would have been looking out for the signs of one coming and moved to higher/safer areas. They would have passed around knowledge on how to cope, and especially focus on survival and rebuilding later on. I wish I knew more. But I don’t think they cared as much for the destruction of their structures as they would for moving the community elsewhere to survive the storm and rebuild.

Yes I do. I’m in my early thirties, Australian lady. I drive manual by choice because it is more fun and I appreciate the mechanics of vehicles. Most cars here are auto I guess.

…The fact that people need this pointed out to them is concerning.
