The Airtasker Browse tasks feed is a window into everyday Australia, and we really do see it all. From urgent deliveries to getting things out of trees, heartwarming moments to things that make you go hmmm the community never fails to surprise us, and you’ve come up with some good’uns this year.
When you need to outsource a Nonna.
“My cat had a bad day recently where someone called him ‘a rat looking thing’…”
When you have an urgent need to bring a personal joke to life…
…but how did they get dirty? ?
“I have accidentally cut the cable to my beats whilst in the gym…”
Damn practicality ruining dramatic “I QUIT” scenes since work was invented.
Drew’s shoe got thrown up on the roof (apparently it’s a long story). Tasker Randy rescued it but next week this popped up…
What are you doing Drew??
“Must have own mop.”
“I have a lovely lady friend who loves going out to live music. She loves dancing, whereas I dance like the proverbial drunken uncle at a wedding and am too embarrassing to be near.”
“The need to recap on past lessons is great. Can you teach me before I forget altogether?”
“As above. Very hungover.”
“Please make a fence so it doesn’t come back.”
“How do they pay fuel stations?”

“I know this sounds dodgy but…”
Did Jake win her back??
“I done effed up this morning and need to apologise to my roommate as creatively as possible.”
At the end of the day, we’ve learned that everyone needs a hand sometimes, and that no matter how random your skills are, there are people out there who will pay for them.
Australia, never stop doing what you do. We look forward to a whole new year of people helping each other get more done.
