@GingerGorman @oxox1122331 @VirginAustralia The crew could have run out of hours. They are not allowed to fly for safety reasons. All airlines are short staffed so replacement crew not always an option. Also need to be trained in that aircraft.

As many of you will already know, every year, all proceeds from the sale of (either version of) Tim’s sentimental Christmas song ‘White Wine In The Sun’ over the Christmas period (Nov-Jan) go to an organisation which supports children and adults on the autism spectrum: @AutismSpectAust.

This video, uploaded last year, is the latest version of the song, from Tim’s special, BACK, which was filmed at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire in 2021. More details on https://t.co/yxvGlWJDGP including a link to the YouTube playlist with two other versions.

@CatieOsaurus Where you keep it when not travelling. You would have put it back there first thing after the last trip knowing this would happen. You will have already looked there. You need to look again & ask others to look there as well (repeat as many times as necessary:)

@GrogsGamut I voted today & was marked off on a digital roll. Was also asked if I’d already voted. If you are lodging multiple votes there will and should be a penalty.

This isn’t about your home or backyard or money. It will not affect you. It’s recognition of an unrecognised people - a sign of respect for the human beings who lived on the land on which we stand for tens of thousands of years. It’s time is now. Please vote YES.

‘Push the envelope’ has nothing to do with stationery.

One of the senses of ‘envelope’ is “the outer covering of an aerostat (lighter-than-air aircraft).”

Aeronautically, ‘push the envelope’ refers to a set of performance limits that may not be safely exceeded.

@adhdjesse Me as a student: been off in a ‘haze’, everyone else working quietly, whisper to ask what we are doing.
Me as a teacher: ask three before me and encourage conversation about the work.

@SarkySage cockatoos are the juvenile delinquents of the bird word - you just gotta love them 😀 as long as they're not destroying your bin, balcony, lemons, passion fruit, oranges, lychees, macadamias, etc.

@lifelonglit Sister & I only have to say, ‘Midvale’ - often jinxed 🤣

I often see this as an issue in leadership.

Leaders take too long to decide.

This creates a culture of atrophy where decisions are paralysed

In dynamic organisations, decisions are made constantly, carefully, but quickly.

I meet with my senior team daily at 7am.
