Our Melbourne ops manager moved areas so I promoted someone internally. She told some of her staff working from home that we understand that they’re only 50% productive. Had to have a conversation with her about telling her staff not to work hard ffs…
I find people sometimes work too hard.
You have to remind them that in the office you take time to talk to people about things, discussions, “water cool talks” etc
At home they think if they leave their computer they are being dodgy.

I’m definitely more productive at home. I just sit there and work and don’t get interrupted every 5 minutes
Me and my offsider are finally allowed back in the main building after 4 months of iso. With restrictions thou.
Everyone that can is still WFH. That combined with three people job sharing two jobs id just awesome.
I might see if i can find a wfh inventory controller job.
It’s not even about working more when you’re WFH. Previously our team had our own space and each of us had our own desks. That’s all changing and we will not have to use a desk booking system and compete with the other staff for an area. No guarantee that we’d be in the same area or near each other. Having to find out where each other is if we do want to ask questions etc. What’s the point in going to an office if we cant co-locate and work that way. We might as well be at home.
I was never overly keen on working from home. I liked to keep work separate from my home world. This experience has definitely won me over however. I see no point in going back to the office as a default.
The thing that kills me as well is working all day at my computer, logging off at 4, hanging out with the kids, dinner etc then sitting back down at the computer to study for a couple of hours then bed.
Doing the job I was, I hated having to work remotely. Absolutely doesn’t suit the way I like to work.
Traffic is fucked since school went back. It took me 55 minutes to drive from Watsons Bay to Randwick this arvo.
I love your instagram

I hope someday one of the statues I post about will be a Brosque one.
Yeah, my 45-minute commute has gone back to its usual 60 or so minutes.
Are there any proper flea markets left in Sydney? Also junkyards?
South West Sydney is fully off junk yards.
Reverse Garbage at Marrickville is a woke junkyard

Enjoy it while it lasts.
The manager at Addison Rd is doing her best to destroy it.
Oh yeah.
My sister did tell me that
Yeah I kinda picked up on that. 
Fatal shark attack at Little Bay this afternoon. A long time between fatals, last one was Marcia Hathaway in 1963 I believe.
Rock fisherman slipped into the water and just massacred by a 4+ metre shark.
