'Australia's daughters' - you turkey.  WTF kind of fabulous careers do you imagine Australia's sons had in times past?

You think it was all shoving the little woman into the kitchen barefoot and pregnant while hubby sat in a big leather chair and played the lord of all he could survey?

WTF is WRONG with you? Women were PROTECTED from the hard and dangerous work that killed men - most didn't make it to pension age, and those that did - the general rules was 'work fifty years, retire and die in two'.

MEN - no more than women - had access to higher education.... unless they were well off or at least had a solid family that was prosperous or were VERY fortunate and got a scholarship or a job that paid for tuition.

Sonny - I had the highest IQ in my school's A class, tested at a time when I and siblings were starved rats ....finished final year at fifteen... was on my own in life on next to zero income from sixteen... I joined up at seventeen and the Army gave me three meals a day and my first god pair of shoes..... and I'm not even black!!

Where's my affirmative action?  You - and all the fools like you - made one cardinal mistake in your heroic pursuit of equality - you started by force feeding women - and never got past that point, apart from a few wogs and blacks.

YOU still do it and you imagine this is NORMAL!!  It's not normal - it's madness and is absolute inequity writ large by government fiat = despotism... and it's been going on now for forty three years.  When do you reckon we might declare equality?  when they own and run the whole joint and hold all the good jobs and real careers?

You heroes of the revolution are absolute nobodies.


You just had a seance with yer grandpappys, then!

Highest IQ in your class, eh! What species were your classmates?


Three boys and four girls... the girls being so oppressed - one with teacher parents went straight to uni while living at home free etc...

Why do you think Dutton lost the election?




Dutton lost because he didn't have any hair and that scared children.


Well, he did look like Hannibal Lecter's accountant, I guess.

Sounds like me - at school I thought I was very smart but when I went to Uni -
in some subjects I struggled to pass the 50% grade on some exams.
The Uni bombards you with so much information that you can't consume it all.
It was so embarrassing when many Chinese students who had difficulty with English
were getting marks of 80% and even 90%.
I thought - God - I'm up against an army of Einsteins.   Shocked

The sheilified press were against him and nothing he said got a fair hearing.... he failed to show that he stood for anything substantial - in making his play for nuclear and back to the office - he showed the belly instead of going hard and sticking to the facts..

What he should have done is exactly what the rest of the Civilised Tribes countries are doing right now - rejecting transgenderism, rejecting mass immigration, rejecting religious intolerance and violence, demanding that people abide by a certain standard to become citizens, demolition of two tier legal practices, standing by the people's rejection of the voice in no uncertain terms, and stating what would be done about the Aboriginal problems....

He showed weakness - not strength - when he craw-fished after telling your sheilas they'd be back in the office and not coddled in the workforce any more - he showed the belly and it was yellow.... he did not say what he meant and mean what he said, win or lose.

That was the moment he lost the election... that moment when he showed the belly.

China is about to build 10 nuclear stations for $27Bn each US ..... hello??  Western Europe is returning to nuclear and continues to import fossil from Russia. Do you ever realise you've been lied to?

On top of that - clearly you think that this fabulous robotic advancement will just go on and on while its owners get billions out of it and those affected lose and lose... and that it will simply arrive at a beautiful fine point of balance between work and prosperity for all evenly not equally) and all will be roses ...... you have no understanding of economics or of genuine social justice or even of what motivates people.

I have heard of administrative divisions that tried to wind back WFH... and return it to a privilege granted to middle, upper and executive management, who could arbitrarily WFH as it suited them... mostly didn't happen... the hypocrisy was too in-your-face.

It's definitely those in their last working years, 60ish +, who seem to have the hardest time coming to terms with WFH.

'you've heard' - Brittany Higgins heard she was raped after she was put on the mat for late entry into the office...

'administrative divisions' - of what?  Public service? It's not a right - it's a privilege - and I would accept the resignation of any who said NO to being told to come to work.

You have yet to produce one iota of evidence....  now what about these managers who work from home and don't come to the office... name one...

... and name these 'administrative divisions'.

You wouldn't have to worry about firing them, many Millennials and Zoomers already won't apply for jobs where WFH is not a condition of employment.

By 2030, WFH conditions in administrative occupations will be the norm, like the 8-hour day/40-hour week.

Did your grandpappys ever talk of their grandpappys sh!tting on the idea of that?

Good luck to them in their unemployment then.

No answers to the questions then?  Heard it on the grapevine - the idle chatter between the boys in their cellars hunched over their computers.

Internet Borderline Disorder... heard it on the internet so it must be true... they won't work in jobs that do not provide work from home!  So there!

They'd be fine... plenty of companies on board with WFH... plenty offer nothing else but.

You'd be left with meth heads and alcoholics forced to apply to keep their dole.

Good thing you're at the back end of life and won't have to worry about any of that.

Your over-confidence far out-weighs your knowledge and skills... you haven't supported one thing you've come up with yet.

Now - which are these companies that are all on-side with this - and that won't start to change once the NAB gets through with it?

Seems to me they're all just waiting to see someone else start the rot.....  remember the transgender insanity?  Along came one review and down came the castle walls... the emperor's new clothes were seen for what they are...

One day - my son .... all this aged landscape will be yours!!!  Good luck getting there first....... the way things are going?  It's going to make a great deal of difference to a great number of Southern gentlemen.

Well - a quick search shows that the orders to return are building.... and the usual poo-stirring media is talking about it as a 'right' -  laughable..

Keep trying, kid.

Ah, the NAB! and the other three... who all use chatbots and AI throughout their customer support service to give customers that down-home feeling, and support "collaboration, teamwork and problem solving for customers",eh!
