What made your day a crap one?

Saw a student I haven’t seen in a little while today, nice young man certainly not one of the lads and so very trustworthy. Told me he had a stage 4 cancer. I had no idea what to say to him apart from telling him to take care and find me if he needs a chat. You spend time with young people in education, you listen to them, help and teach them, but never expect news like that. Did make for a crap day.

I went back to the shop this morning and saw the owner, who I know well. He had the details of the transaction on his phone (along with the rest) and after confirming the prices of the cards I bought, made the refund there and then.

He apologised for the error and we shook hands, friends again.

A satisfactory outcome to an unfortunate mistake.

Perhaps his employee should become unemployed.

Diesel in Australia now at $2.80 per litre, and will go up to $3.00 per litre next month.

Tuesday I paid $5.29.9/Gallon for 92 Octane Gas, last week it was only $5.19.9/Gallon, and I said self recall when you paid $0.19.9 CENTS A GALLON in 1970?

Making little over $1.25/Hr also, and everything was cheaper in 1970..........Plus these was no Internet,Cell Phones, Cable TV, or Streaming.

Our federal government has included tax charges to all our petrol and diesel, which is why it getting expensive for all transport services (land, sea and air).

been trying to figure out how our Omega brush cracked in 3 spots between our last 2 SOTDs... saw the cracks whipping up yesterday's lather... photo is the big one... didn't drop it or bang it at any point... since we got it... a bunch of hairs came out whipping up lathers... since it's a used 1... maybe the previous owner beat it up & hairline cracks were in it...

Reknot a new handle, or go outside somewhere in private and cry like a bloody five year old child.
