  • Funnily enough, in Australia we call the broiler a grill, and what you’re describing is exactly what I thought a grilled cheese was. One of my favourite snacks when I was a kid was this, but with corn kernels under the cheese as well. Of course, being Australian, cheese and Vegemite was also a winning combination!


  • Aussie here, I’ve always considered a cheese toasty to be a cheese sandwich that’s been toasted in a jaffle iron. A toasted cheese sandwich, however, would be more similar to a grilled cheese.

    Not sure if this was just the nomenclature used by my family or is in line with what others call them, though.













  • 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.
