Dirty tricks... let's explain why you need to enroll to vote NOW.

The Howard Government's changes to the Electoral Act mean that many Australians, without their knowledge, will not be able to vote at the upcoming Federal Election. Make sure that your family and friends are enrolled to vote - and enrolled correctly.

If you are NOT enrolled to vote BEFORE the election is called (before they announce the date of the election), then you will not be able to vote at this election. Very kindly of them, you can still enroll after that time.. but not actually vote at this Federal election.. how sneaky is that eh?

Did anyone see THAT point explained in all those lovely expensive TV adverts the current government are paying for ( i.e YOU are paying for ) NO ! Not a word said about it. They nicely omitted that important part didnt they?

ENROLL NOW - they could call the election any day.....make your vote count - pass the word on please.

Just doing my small bit...

They take away our rights at work whilst, at the same time, apply a very generous pay rise to themselves, and now conveniently omit an important message on voting enrollment????....

Let's get these bastards out of government before we totally loose our rights beyond remedy.......the Australian way of life that we are lucky enough to have become accustomed to

I'm still kickin !

Started a new job Friday 20th July... long hours and even a longer drive home in the afternoons. Gotta love Gold Coast bottle necks.. NOT .. argh !

I have not given up on this blog, but between the new job and family illness, time has just not stretched enough to allow blogging.

I have no wit, no funny url's.. and story telling about the new job would be boring as hell.

I started as receptionist and PA for a couple that run 4 companies. As of today, I am now book keeper / accounts / PA .. and I have to find a replacement for the job I am vacating. Of course, I will be doing said job till I DO FIND the replacement.. lol .. oh well.. I do so hate being bored?

Hopefully things will balance out soon and I will bring some funnies to the blog :D

Want to fly with Qantas?

Never let it be said that Qantas ground crews lack a sense of humour.


After every flight, Qantas pilots fill out a form, called a "gripe sheet", which tells mechanics about any problems with the aircraft. The mechanics correct the problems; document their repairs on the form, and then pilots review the gripe sheets before the next flight. According to a recent email I received, here are some actual maintenance complaints submitted by Qantas' pilots (marked with a P) and the solutions recorded (marked with an S) by maintenance engineers.

Although this is my kind of sarcasm, I swear, I have never worked in maintenance for Qantas.... truely...

P: Left inside main tyre almost needs replacement.
S: Almost replaced left inside main tyre.


P: Test flight OK, except auto-land very rough.
S: Auto-land not installed on this aircraft.


P: Something loose in cockpit.
S: Something tightened in cockpit.


P: Dead bugs on windshield.
S: Live bugs on back-order.


P: Autopilot in altitude-hold mode produces a 200 feet per minute descent.
S: Cannot reproduce problem on ground.


P: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear.
S: Evidence removed.


P: DME volume unbelievably loud.
S: DME volume set to more believable level.


P: Friction locks cause throttle levers to stick.
S: That's what friction locks are for.


P: IFF inoperative in OFF mode.
S: IFF always inoperative in OFF mode.


P: Suspected crack in windshield.
S: Suspect you're right.


P: Number 3 engine missing.
S: Engine found on right wing after brief search.


P: Aircraft handles funny.
S: Aircraft warned to straighten up, fly right, and be serious.


P: Target radar hums.
S: Reprogrammed target radar with lyrics.


P: Mouse in cockpit.
S: Cat installed.


P: Noise coming from under instrument panel. Sounds like a midget pounding on something with a hammer.
S: Took hammer away from midget.

Maybe this is part of the training package the maintanance guys get?

Dustin 'Rainman' Hoffman swears Qantas are the best


By the way - Qantas is the only major airline that has never, ever, had a major accident. Maybe sarcasm is their secret?
