“being myself a smallish employer forced to hire greedy millionaire proofreaders…”
Excuse me, are you slanderously accusing me of being a millionaire, or are you *gasp* TWO TIMING ME with a millionaire proofreader? I can assure you that your millionaire proofreader’s ability to nit pick your typos will be severely constrained by the Scrooge McDuck style swimming through piles of money they are required to complete, which will distract them from the aforementioned nit picking 😑
You'd make a superior Chinese spy, JB. Hope you get the job!
As for work from home (WFH), I'm still confused as to why there's any issue with it as long as you submit your work on time and of an acceptable quality. How and where you completed it is completely irrelevant, surely? WFH has so many pluses: no commute, saving time and fossil fuels, not to mention the atmosphere; if you WFH you do not require costly office space or equipment; add in the work-life balance and flexibility for the employee, and literally everyone wins! The employer, the employee, and the environment all end up well in the black.
So, where does the obsession with getting people back into offices come from? My theory is three-fold:
1. managers fear there will be demand for fewer managers, so want people working in the office to protect their jobs;
2. extroverts prefer to be around people and can't deal with the isolation of their home offices;
3. office politics bullies crave their fix of making everyone miserable, but they can only really do it face-to-face in the office without leaving an electronic trail HR departments can feast on.
As someone who was fucked over many a time by office politics bullies, shysters, credit-stealers and other varieties of ghoul, I now refuse to take anything other than a WFH job. So there, ghouls!
"I assume it has to be the Chinese because nobody else can afford the asking price of your average former Australian politician" I think you overestimate the current market value for Australian politicians.
We've been having fun guessing who the spy is. So funny to see the lefties blaming the right and vice versa. Dutton knows I reckon because he wants them outed publicly. I tried AI. It knows but it won't say.
I confess some bafflement at the fate of the unnamed former MP. In a robust security environment, one might reasonably expect the miscreant to be discreetly disappeared, with a footnote in Hansard to advise the House of Reps of their sudden memory-holing.
Isn't this individual going to face any consequences besides being assessed as 'not being stupid enough to do it again'?
' Dear Mr Ping ' 🤣🤣🤣

Hang about. Didn't you once work for one of them agencies what wear Drizabones instead of trenchcoats and have acronyms and stuff?
Wait til Innes finds out some bank workers are wfh 5 days a week because the banks got rid of their office space the second the pandemic hit
I wonder how Mr Wilcox' $/yr/day productivity number works? My productivity *accelerates* when I work from home?
So few people even do dimension analysis these days, to check their statements, let alone back-of-the envelope checks.
Sorry. I laughed my nuts off at this.
Mr Ping and Mr Willcox are definitely cut with the same cloth. Both have a vast spy network of frightened proles.
I just want to know who the spy is.
Just update your LinkedIn profile and brag about your security clearances you’ll be a shoe in. 🤣
Ok, take my money

JB is not Jason? James Bond perhaps.
