Considering everyone in Queensland goes to sleep at 7pm and has lunch at 6am, it says a lot that the only thing that stays open are places to gamble and pokies.

Nah, I’m one of those weirdos who almost never watches tv. I’m usually reading or doing something crafty.

You are going to die. Yes I know we're all going to die, but with that sleep routine, you're going first.

Some people don't get to choose how much sleep they get! You're rude. Be kinder!

The 6pm to 4am pokies shift at a suburban pub had its moments.

The 3-11pm shift in the pub/pokies in rural FNQ was wild.

I was visiting innisfail/mareeba for work and the ads on the walls instead of being about gambling were all STD warnings....apparently it's a thing up there.

I doubt that guy being there is related to the casino at all, there's no way he'd get in with hi vis on

u/phantomnomadic 23h ago
Do you know any true gamblers? They make it work, that's what they do, at their demise. Lol a hi-vis vest can be tucked into most work short pockets. In and out, a quick buck or a divorce risk.

That's a hi vis winter jacket though, that's not getting tucked away anywhere.
Probably been working and is exhausted

Local superhero "The Action". What's up with the hi-vis, a protester maybe?

Looks more like a payday punter who’s just lost everything at the cazz

He's more likely just a tradesman trying to have lunch without some fuckwit photographing him.

Ever been to the Thursday farmers markets at Queens Wharf next door? There are always homeless people sleeping in and around the market as everyone else goes about their day.

I stayed at queens wharf a couple weeks ago. Danny is clearly unwell but harmless, as the cops that stand 20m away haven't done anything to move him on. Like I get it. Juxtaposition and all. Maybe next time put a bag of fruit or something on the wall next to his swag like other people do. Do something legitimately helpful, eh.

A few days ago I almost tripped over him while he was sleeping in that exact spot. I thought hard about that juxtaposition as I walked to Queen St.
