I thought i read that all the oz day merch was taken to landfill. Guess thats the only upside - maybe some will have a single time use for a week or so before landfill

Conversely I don’t think this was an issue with the Yes posters for the voice to parliament, I still see them in some front yards

In previous jobs when someone leaves, typically you might have a lunch, wave goodbye and be on your way.
I’m at a relatively new job and the typical stance on what is required as I’ve been told by my manager is ‘a lunch with your local team, a morning tea with the extended team, a leaving card and a leaving gift’ is the general requirement.
Surely this is overkill. What a waste of time, have a lunch and a wave goodbye and move on, surely.

It just feels like overkill having to organise 4 separate things.
I don’t see any reason a morning tea with everyone can’t be organised, have a card there for signing and off you go. Maybe I don’t feel the same way about colleagues on a personal level.
My previous job before I left, my team caught up for a beer and said good bye and good luck and I was gone.
Luckily my manager told me, because I organised a lunch and that was it for a member of my staff that is leaving shortly. Need to organise sourcing money off everyone for a gift, secretly getting a card signed by everyone and teeing up the entire team (60+ people) to a morning tea, just feels like a waste of resources while we are already under resourced.

"So that's it after 15 years, good bye and good luck?"
"I don't recall saying good luck."

At the risk of sounding sexist I think this is purely a female thing, I don’t understand it or agree with it!

Wasn't there someone here who celebrated a birthmonth?
You could narrow it down to about 3 if it happened, that’s about the amount of females on here

That was a thing until about 5 years ago. Companies started moving to WFH and hotdesking so you didn't have much of a relationship with your colleagues. Covid exacerbated that. I know people who didn't go into the office for 3 years and now begrudge going in one day a week. If someone left the team it would be mentioned but no-one would be there for a morning tea or lunch.

I don't under stand how eBay battery sellers make any money.
Any time I need a FOB battery I normally buy one off eBay for a couple of dollars. It gets to me in a few days, with postage included.

Why all anti vax/lock down nutters on Facebook all seem to have photos of cars/boats and or esp Donald Trump as their profile pictures on Facebook, esp as Donny has admitted he has been vaccinated
