COVID-19 Round 18 - Dan Dictates you must get back to doing the things you love

Make sure they made it with alcohol instead of methanol. Unless it’s just for sterilising stuff.

And now WFH is not required, it’s return to the office and long commutes. So pretty much catch omicron or quit.

Wonder if this becomes a worksafe issue. Would be an interesting case I wouldn’t understand. We can’t all be Sam Lane.

Got to love government. I work for a department that has decided to enforce different restrictions to DHHS, so I can’t go to work but free to roam…

So Hunt criticising Labor now for wanting free RATs so give it a couple of days (once polls reaction comes in) and they will be.

I work for a company that is ok for us to work side by side but their expectation was that we didn’t socialise outside of work (eg Xmas breakups). It made it really difficult for us as I have family members that I work with. :joy:

I thought only Japanese companies told their staff what they should be doing outside of work?

When I worked for Nissan, the mother company decided motorbikes were dangerous, so staff were no longer allowed to ride them to work (in Japan, not here).

ACTU has COVID workplace guidance paper on its site

Wife works in the CBD and they all have to work in office at this stage but company policy doesn’t allow them to catch PT currently. They are given a allowance for fuel and parking daily and are allowed to car pool with one other co-worker only

Lol you cannot be serious? This is exactly the sort of scope creep that scares the crap out of me. What next? Cant leave home during the weekend or after work?

Completed :heavy_check_mark:

I started well below the clouds (1100 metre elevation gain from Warburton).

Uber, taxi and work will compensate.
PT is absolutely packed currently and masks rarely enforced (most do the right thing) but it’s just too much of a risk currently. They will be WFH in a fortnight but first two weeks of New Year is their peak time and work in that period can’t be done from home

Yeh I know, just being a bit flippant. But how low were the numbers before we reached the magical 80 and opened the doors? How many cases of omicron were there?
3 Hobart businesses closed today, hopefully still to open, due to lack of staff who are sick. PM Pete is copping flak now for giving in to Scomo and the feeling is its a BS positive spin untill the 5th test is settled.

Bad headache/tooth ache does that for me.

Most notably on uni campuses. Well, der, there is no one there this year!

Also, ACT claiming >100% vax rate.
