People can get things very wrong. Have a look at the bozo answers. Australian slang I get that you might never have heard it. It doesn't mean the op is wrong though.
reddit has turned in to a steaming pile of crap. or maybe it was always like that. thankful we moved away for our special kind of banter. A gig is a job, a kind of horse cart but I'd never heard of being a sticky beak slang term, learn something every day. I'll never quite understand why people bother to waste time being jerks online.
Reddit was better when it was just the tech heads using it.
The normies ruined it.
