    These guys had a disgusting reputation, they were someone you’d work for as a last resort . A guy I knew insisted on being paid in advance and walked off the job when a payment didn’t go through. I strongly suspect them taking another guy I know for over $20000 was a contributing factor in his suicide a few months later.

    Yep franchised , the main franchiser is sorting out the mess . The local franchise is the one at fault . I never hear anything good about him . This was three years ago

    I was just posting in the RIP thread about Peter Fonda’s death. Then I saw this on the website of the NZ Herald, home of premium news. Honestly why would anybody trust this bunch of cocks if they can’t even use IMDB? The headline writer clearly just winged it and they couldn’t be arsed checking whether it was true. For the record, he was never in On Golden Pond. His Dad was, as was his sister. I wonder which one they got him mixed up with?

    I used to freestyle it as a youngster. Decided to teach myself how to use them the "correct" way. Probably took a couple of weeks to develop the required muscle memory. It isn't that hard

    @canefan Agree, not hard to get some form of technique. Amazing though that in the race to find the best tools for eating rice, two sticks won.

    If you'd ever spent time in a Happy Eater in the UK you might not be so confident.

    @canefan I got reasonably proficient the 'right' way living in Taiwan. But that is nearly 20 years ago now, think I'd be pretty shit with chopsticks now.
