What cheeses me off

In the MEL F lounge a man sitting at the table next to me was wearing a training singlet and shorts. Looked like a NZ Rugby player to me. Not that it annoyed or CMO, more that I was surprised he was allowed in. Maybe the bloke at the front desk was intimidated..

When the financial app doesn't work , ends up locking you out , so you do the recommended!!!! solutions on app issues . Contact said credit card provider who says 'oh no you don't need to do that " unlocks my account , notes my travel , tells me I am the first with the issues

So now I have to log in via the browser as the app doesn't work for me , freezes after first stwp
Now has locked me out again

WCMO is unpublished protest crippling city and monopolising Police resources so a small number of people can march.

Caught bus into city this morning, met friends for lovely brunch, nice walk from Barangaroo to the Quay, icecream. No signage anyway warning of road closures. No trains running on the city circle or north sydney line.

We had to walk all the way to Central to get a bus to go east, south or inner west.

Taxis and Ubers couldn't get passengers to hotels, a huge cruise was boarding passengers anyone who hadn't got there by midday would have a long way to lug cases from central.

Never seen so many cops not even on NYE or Anzac March, not sure why they had to close access to George, Pitt, Castlereagh, Elizabeth and all cross streets from Circular Quay to Eddy Ave.

Spoke with some of the coppers who said were expecting violence, but were getting sick of explaining to tourists (2 massive cruise ships in port) that walking was only option.

I can't see this helping their cause, all it does is piss off locals and tourists, doesn't impact politicans one iota.

If there had been signage at the bus stops this morning we would have caught ferry to Balmain and picked up buses there.

WCMO is Facebook can load a post with hundreds of comments fine. Then you try to expand the subcomments (can't be more than half a dozen) on a post and it times out. (Yes, I have All Comments enabled)

Open a new post with a few comments only on it. Times out.

Open some other post with comments on it. Loads fine. Go back to the last post as maybe FB have got their **** together. Times out loading the comments.

Facebook… is that still a thing?

WCMO is pre-reading and pre-work for an in person training course that takes longer than the in person training will!

Its 2am, I have a 2 day classroom training for a new certification Mon/Tues, was sent pre-work after 5pm on Friday with no real indication of how lengthy it would be. Just spent 8 hours on it and have to call it a night (well morning as its just past 2am), lest I am unable to stay awake in class injust under 7 hours time; with 7 papers still to read.

Cant wait for the feedback form Im going to have a field day, so much repetition in what I did get through, wondering what there could possibly be left to learn in person?

My CBA NetBank phone app has been showing a notification that I needed to supply ID information.
This is not a new account and my ID information previously supplied was correct.

I phoned CBA and after 1 hour 39 minutes hearing the same music and announcements every 2 minutes thanking me for my patience I finally spoke to someone.

I was advised that the notification should not have appeared and nothing was required.

I wish Board members and senior executives should have to be on hold like I was for any or no reason.

I get the same notification in Qantas. In my profile, I've been through everything there and nothing is missing and nothing has changed from a month ago.

Hotel Safes. We are in a pretty up-market serviced apartment in Salzburg. The in room safe is not only too small for a smallish laptop but is not secured to any part of the room. Basically it is designed to act as a convenient carry bag for any thieve.

Guess you'd call it an unsafe?

... When QR want to charge me an $80 CC fee for a $198 award booking!

 

[Guvner]

Cripes . That’s ridiculous.
Isn’t it illegal to charge more than the actual cost incurred to facilitate the transaction if that CC transaction is Aus based? If it’s Doha based then I suppose they can do what they want?

Hotels that have nothing bigger than a double sized bed.

Doha based. Glad I spotted it before paying.

I had this for 18 months and could not work out why.

When I had some time to spare I deceded to try to address the issue.

What worked was changing the email in my profile. With that the notification went away.

At a guess it seems an email to me with a perfectly valid @ddress had bounced at some stage and was blacklisted.

Allowing smoking in public places, full stop.

Today first mobility scooters in Coles. He in one and his partner with trolley beside him going up the aisle. No room to pass. I stopped in front of her and she told me to move. i replied politely I can't move so you are going no where until you move.

Number 2. SUV pulls out into right lane as slow truck in left lane. Then proceeds to go at the same speed as truck and just behind it. nothing for 200 metres in front of him. Why change lanes if this is what you probably always do.

The blow by blow commentary on the Lehrmann defamation case. I don't care. But even if I did, wouldn't need updates every day. (OK, not living in Australia, my main media sources are ABC news (streaming radio and TV) and The Age, and they both seem to be going over the top with it).
