My wife's friend works for BoM and was in charge of the rebrand. She was gloating about it at a BBQ back in December and it took every ounce of my being not to laugh uncontrollably at her. She said something to the effect of "we make sure to call out how stupid people are when they say BoM instead of Bureau. It's our identity and employees need to be proud of it, period." She wondered why they have such a bad staff retention problem???

Yeah I don't like her but Mrs Beardcrumb insists on keeping every single friendship she's ever made l, despite how crappy those people may have become lol

Just finished a big feed, my father in law's partner used to work in a restaurant so she cooked enough Chinese food to feed about 30 people.

Will have to have a nap and try round two in a few hours.

I will never understand organisations replacing their perfectly good names and logos. Almost inevitably they're replaced with something worse.

My daughter's manager came from private enterprise and she's all about staff building their "personal brand" as well as the IT section's "brand". She calls a lot of pointless meetings to discuss this kind of poo poo.

Distant thunder here and sky is getting dark towards the south.

quote:

PSC Heads Up Post

Severe Thunderstorm are now tracking towards our coverage area.
Thunderstorm are still developing at the moment.
These thunderstorms are likely to produce heavy rainfall that may lead to flash flooding.
The likelihood of medium to large hailstones
and damaging winds over the next several hours.

Locations which may be affected include, Katoomba / Blue Mountains
Penrith LGA
Blacktown LGA
Hawkesbury LGA
Fairfield LGA
The Hills LGA

These thunderstorm may be severe at times and are producing lots of ground lightning strikes.

I guess the thunderstorms might drown out the sound of the fireworks later tonight.

Id say the more accurate takeaway is that capitalism is versatile. Same with kmart not selling cheap flag poo poo. The generation gap is very wide between your typical gen x and even y on this one although zoomers as usual probably deserve most of the credit

I think a big part of it is gen x ers are about the last generation where at least some of them experienced a society not actively hostile to their existence
