You ok?

I had someone reach out to me on the weekend and they're seeking help from someone far more qualified to deal with their situation than me, but I'm reinforcing what I've said on here many times. I'll always listen. I'm only one PM away.

It aint weak to speak.

If genuinely ill straight away with a doctor’s certificate.

Otherwise blow your nose and get on with it.


Dude is on his 2nd stint of sickies and he's on his 3rd week, he's not setting the world on fire either despite the agency giving him a huge wrap.

Last one came out like a bull out a gate then had pretty much a week off through illness, somehow the agency hadn't paid him the 3 hours that we accredited him for that pay period and he was going off at me, even after I showed him where I had entered his hours and submitted them..................that convo didn't end well for him.

:lol: :lol: :lol: a while now

I first found out they had them after waiting a good 10 minutes in line, looked to my left and there are self serve checkouts.



What is with Aldi closing checkouts every 35 seconds ??

There’s 2 on Anzac Highway and one has them and one doesn’t

I would take that as a resignation.

Sick is one thing. No phone call, he doesn’t want to be there.

Unless his arms have fallen off then that's how I've taken in, I'm still waiting for a 3rd party to get back to me.

Yep......i reckon a quick call to fair work would agree that would be deemed reasonable for the employer to assume its 'Abandonment of Employment'
