  • I’ve owned five, but have worn/used three.

    First pair from age 13 or 14 through to 17. Second pair from 17 until 24. Third pair has seen daily use for over 14 years.

    I have replaced the lenses in my third pair once, and have a couple of pairs of spare lenses if the need arises. I already have my next two pairs of sunglasses, bought them maybe eight years ago, just in case.

    This doesn’t include tinted safety glasses that I wear at work, I usually only get an average of 6-8 months out of those.






  • Most of my passwords are based around strings of characters that are comfortable to type, then committing them to muscle memory. There’s a few downsides to this:

    • If I need to log in to something on mobile and don’t have a proper keyboard with me, it’s tough to remember which symbols I’ve used

    • I share some of my logins with friends and family for certain things, if they call and need to re-enter a password, it’s usually impossible to recite it to them over the phone (most of my shared logins have reverted back to proper words and numbers to make it easier for the others)

    • If I lose an arm, I’ll probably have to reset all of my passwords.

    But yeah, words alone provide plenty of possibilities. There’s a reason cryptocurrency wallets use them for seed phrases.

    From the Australian fair work ombudsmen:

    When overpayments occur, the employer and employee should discuss and agree on a repayment arrangement.

    If the employee agrees to repay the money, a written agreement should be made which sets out the:

    • reason for the overpayment

    • amount of money overpaid

    • way repayments will be made (for example, cash, cheque or electronic transfer) and how often (this has to be reasonable).

    Granted, this is generally for overpayment of wages and not specific to redundancy pay. There may be clauses in their contracts with varying terms that allow them to reclaim, but I’m just some dude on the internet.
