2/2 @Qantas still didn't know where it was! Is this partly there fault of the Qantas electronic bag tags, since you can't see the destination printed on the tag?
1/2 @Qantas Flew SYD-BNE-Townsville. My bag flew SYD-BNE-Mt Isa! Qantas had no idea where it was. I have a tracker in the bag. I told them Mt Isa. How the hell did it go to Mt Isa by mistake? I had an email from Qantas 30 mins after my bag was returned to me, saying that they
@qantas I flew SYD-BNE-TSV today. My bag didn't. QF tells me they assume the bag was left in Sydney or Brisbane. I KNOW it is in Mt Isa (the bag has a tracker). I can't tell QF cos they are only open business hours. How the F##k did it end up in Mt Isa?
@Qantas All Sunday plans in BNE cancelled. Staff in Business Lounge were angels and got us on a 2PM flight. Qantas as company hopeless. Text cancelling original flight came as 1:13 AM! 2/2
@Qantas Booked QF504 SYD-BNE 7:05 Cancelled. Qantas rebooked us QF540 TEN hours later. That flight plus 2 other BNE flights cancelled. EVERY staff member we spoke to said it was ridiculous they were cancelling flights. They should have been adding flights cos of the backlog. 1/2
@GreenJ I recently had cataract surgery in both eyes. I don't remember any trauma (although, I might have disassociated). Does this mean I AM an old person?
@timwand@DrJessTaylor The Invictus Games (for ex-servicepeople) was in Sydney a few years ago. In an interview, the organiser refers to PTSD. In the background, the prince formally known as Harry (an Invictus patron) can be heard saying “Get rid of the D”.
@timwand@DrJessTaylor In 2012, Ret Gen Chiarelli, former Vice Chief of Staff, US Army, urged name change to Post Traumatic Stress Injury. An injury can usually be treated or healed. Frank Ochberg, former Assoc Dir, US NIMH reports APA unwilling to change.
@Dom_Perrottet@MikeCarlton01@AshleighRaper Circulating explicit photos of a female opponent is NOT "a mistake", it is brutal misogyny. However, Poulos actions are not what adds to the coalition's terminal malaise; it is the Premier's unwillingness to take the actions seriously.
The Robodebt RC is daily shocking, extraordinarily surprising and politically HUGE. Yet @InsidersABC devotes ZERO time to it (except in Talking Pictures). Who decides these things? Priorities?
@macsween_prue@Dom_Perrottet I thought the "third level of government" argument had given up ages ago. It's clear in the proposed referendum wording AND in the more detailed papers that it will only ever be advisory. Why do NO proponents have to resort to falsehoods?
As a psychologist - if Ms Higgins supports this, I agree absolutely. However, if someone else reached this view but she wishes to continue, then our professional obligation is to do whatever is necessary to support her. Otherwise we are letting expertise mask oppression.
"The new material is understood to include opinions from independent medical experts that the ongoing trauma associated with this prosecution presents an unacceptable risk to the health of Ms Higgins."
@LindaMottram Thank you for your years of public service and commitment to journalistic excellence and to the national broadcaster. A warm and engaging presenter of ABC Sydney mornings and an authoritative but thoroughly human host of PM. Best wishes for the future. Michael
@sallymcmanus@MikeCarlton01@Qantas QF434 MEL-SYD 14 May … Boarded the flight, watched all the bags loaded … then, apparently, there were SIX bags from another flight that needed to be loaded on board. It took Qantas TWO HOURS to find people who could load the bags! Two hours late because of NO baggage staff!
