While not strictly accurate (like all political propaganda) it's still a disgrace.

There was plenty of industrial action under the previous liberal and labor government's it just wasn't an actual strike.

Last time it was stoppage of trains just before stations to hold everyone up 5-10 mins and throw out all the timing at Flinders st during peak hours which was actually worse than what they are planning now.

They get waaaaay overpaid as it is and it's not like negotiations have broken down to the point where a strike is required.

Free travel that day

Too bad I got a monthly ticket :(

nope....

Metro are getting the non-unionised (surely that won't be that many) AO's to work that day....

They are just saying it's still free to make the striking workers look like victims and demonise Metro when people get fines.

I really don't see how this isn't terrorism or sabotage or extortion.

Like, strike and stay at home or picket, but to fk with the system and innocent people's daily lives like that is rat shit.

Only reason medical personnel don't do it is because there are lives at stake but it's okay for these douchebags to cost the economy millions in lost productivity.

I'm sure those graffiti people who stop the trains so they can tag them would get thrown in jail for years for doing effectively the same thing.

I think terrorism is kinda a stretch.... but it's just pathetic.

fair enough if they were underpaid/overworked but nigga plz

Probably 10 days living in tokyo shibuya, then 5-6 in osaka.

Visit nara/kyoto whilst staying in osaka.

Visit fuji whilst staying in tokyo, or maybe stay one night in onsen at fuji.

hiroshima dunno.

Might be squeezing korea in for 4 days or so.

I dont think we want to be doing day trips with our luggage... What's wrong with leaving luggage back at accommodation and doing day trips?

Kyoto/nara are 1hour train from osaka. Hiroshima 2.5hr train from osaka (but we might stay in hiroshima for a night or 2)

Fuji is 2hr train from tokyo if we make it a day trip.

Boss left today for a 2 week holiday, then a 4 week working trip visiting distributors around the world...

HR is on a call as we speak to an agency, either to replace me or to get on board in case I do run out the door (even though I've said that I'm not going to) or to get me an assistant to reduce this workload.

Spoke to one of the girls in Accounts about the whole thing and she says that she's seen nothing to indicate I'm about to get let go. She's the one I leaked info to, knowing that she'd tell people... So was very careful in my wording about the whole thing.

We'll see over the next few days I guess... in the meantime, I'm banging out as many tasks as possible and helping out everyone in the office, to counteract the possibility of others planting the seeds of disloyalty...

Unrelated, going out to Bells Hot Chicken for dins with some track day mates. Should be a good time.

    • Clutch hydraulics are also all good, looks like a brand new slave cylinder and everything bled up well. No idea what the actual clutch is, and I don't intend to pull the box off on the floor to find out, so unless we have trouble on the dyno or at shakedown that will remain a mystery for the new owner
    • Front brakes are G4 8 pot calipers over 330mm discs with braided lines. Everything looks good, pretty sure these are off my old 350. Pads are brand new and judging from gold colour are Winmax which is what I also run on my race car, Neil and I both sourced brake stuff from Matty at Racebrakes Sydney who really knows his stuff Everything has bled up nicely with all new Motul RBF600 fluid, there were 2 loose hard line connections and the calipers were new on the car so I ended up doing it 3 times but it is perfect now
    • So, starting with the rear brakes. They look like standard R33 GTST, and will need new pads shortly (less than 5mm material, probably only 1 day left). The slotted discs (probably DBA) are near new at 18.01mm and the lines are braided
    • I clean my wheels every time I wash the car, I also clean the barrels, the only product I use on the wheels is truck wash and a pressure washer, followed by (inset your chosen name brand) wash and wax, time per wheel is probably 2 minutes total, cleaning the barrels is easy with one of these microfibre thingies on a stick from Sabco, they're also great for getting in between the front guards and body, and tight spots in the engine bay  
    • An updated post here. Sounds to me like there's definitely a bit of sketchiness here.  Old mate with 10 rusting Torana's in the front yard might be more who they're focussed on. (For right or wrong).
