The discourse around the Israel-Palestine thing has reached a very specific nadir.

I got harangued by strangers while I was out because my mobility scooter is an Israeli brand.

I get it. I do. But there aren't that many alternatives for mobility aids that actually do what I need them to do. Please do not shout at me for using the scooter I've owned for ten years.

I wish these people would go place their energies at where it matters - Malcolm Turnbull + Peter Garrett for approving Chevron in Australia who enabled this conflict. But no, lets target the vulnerable instead. I'm so sorry for the suckage.

mobility scooter is an Israeli brand

I'm not getting involved in the Israel / Palestine conflict discussion but randoms having a go at you for the brand of your scooter is taking it too far and you shouldn't have to deal with that at all.

His followers, though, have done some terrible things in the name of faith. When formal religion enters the picture, common sense and compassion flies out the window. I think this is deliberate, and has been through history. One of the reasons I don't approve of puritan religion in any form, including my own.

Ooo I'm stuffed, but not exhaustipated. Mostly weighing and packing frozen food, and chipping in in production where needed. I like finishing at 2.30-3.00pm, I can still enjoy the arvo and I don't feel shitty about being on the phones because I didn't even see a single phone today looool just three of us weighing and packing for our lives

Also no regrets about the boots, especially with the "tradie" socks I bought, super comfy, barely an inconvenience.

Did get a lil sus when my pack room supervisor said it was a trial shift. I think she was mistaken, as far as my contract is concerned, I am an employed casual lol

Pace yourself. Also, moving big weights should be pushed not pulled. Use your BIG muscles (thighs, upper arms) to push weights (up or down) - and your hands for grip and keep your back straight as much as possible. You will be exhaustipated by the end of the day, stiff but hopefully not sore.

Have to pull out all the watering drip lines for the garden I did a while back because the fence fell down.

Then put it back.

Can't put it back until a nu fence is built.. neighbour is already difficult.
