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.

    • Middle seat good for a slab of beer or Esky for a road trip. 2x kids, means 1x free seat lol.
    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.
