Our flight was delayed by nearly 2 hours. Tracy at the tickets sales counter in CPT was simply amazing in getting us onto an earlier flight without any issues. I am a frequent traveller (locally #CustomerExperience #FlyWithFlySafair #FlySafairCares

Seems like @Afrihost is no better than our SOE's when it comes to systems & service. Over 2hrs on whatsapp line & when agent cannot resolve I'm told to email some generic account because their system doesn't allow internal escalation! Wow! Then I get told to call a 0800 no! Yoh🙈

Zero draft is a critical part of the academic writing process.

But a lot of folks ignore it and run into all sorts of problems including the writer's block.

Here's what a zero draft is and why you should write one:

Cape Town isn’t just Muizenberg & Clifton 🌊 here’s a list of *other* places you can cool off in.

📸: Woolies tidal pool, just past the Kalk Bay harbour. There’s a parking bay and steps leading to it.

No better way to start 2022 than revel in earlier optimism of being in a new phase of pandemic. Further variants always a likelihood, however, Omicron in SA hopefully a prelude to what to expect moving ahead- death rate only 13% compared to delta wave.

Racism & discrimination is getting out of hand (La Tribuna, Spain). Specially as over 80% of the initial COVID intro in South Africa came from Europe - Tegally et al Nature Medicine 2021. Is not time to stop the discrimination and face this global epidemic together?

Different versions of this graph showing 7-day rolling avg #COVID19 cases in Gauteng floating around. For those interested, here's the latest update tonight:

Will share an analysis, including a look at hospitals and deaths, as soon as I get a chance..

Just ordered a phone for the lady who cleans my house who had hers stolen, that was paid for by a friend from overseas who has a fund set up in SA to help in situations like this. That is such an incredible thing to be the smallest part of and watch happen. Generosity rocks!

Germany Shuts Unvaccinated People Out of Much of Public Life https://t.co/9sPbBLdOEw

[brett Fish anderson @BrettFishA]

Doctor friend confirming that over ninety percent of people in ICU beds have not been vaccinated which has run on effect on cancer patients and others who need surgery but can't find a bed. So way bigger than just covid. Hectic ripple effect on why vaccinations are for everyone.

[farhaadhaffejee @FarhaadHaffejee]

@WOOLWORTHS_SA @WOOLWORTHS_SA continues to tweet about other things but continues to ignore me. Shem, its tough when you profess to be this ethical business and but u get caught out & u not sure how to react hey!!

@WOOLWORTHS_SA what do you recognise as an acceptable time to respond to online queries sent directly to your inbox? This is a continuous problem with the standard answer of the online team being inundated. Hire more people or get your offers right so we don't have to bug you!

[farhaadhaffejee @FarhaadHaffejee]

@WOOLWORTHS_SA So @WOOLWORTHS_SA has basically lied to a customer (in writing) about 'pure online'. Whats the chances that someone will actually deal with this & give me, the customer, feedback??
