We live in a crazy world

I don’t know about you but I found the Government’s reaction to the Qantas grounding astonishing. 

Sure lots of people were inconvenienced …

BUT…

Lots of people have been inconvenienced for months by the unions without any Government comment or condemnation. 

I distinctly remember being inconvenienced on a trip to Melbourne and again both going (very slow luggage as the baggage handlers were off) and coming home when I was rerouted via Melbourne after quite a lot of uncertainty when my flight was cancelled due to union action.

Hmmm!  Enough said.

What can you do in your business to gain some sanity and protection from ever increasing legislation like the new federal OH&S laws starting on January 1st.

There is no lead time.

January 1st is it!  Coming ready of not.

One of the best ways to help yourself is to learn more about how this will affect your business.

So come to one of my workshops.

Adelaide Saturday 19th November

Gold Coast Saturday 26th November

Book in and don’t miss out. 

Melbourne people don't miss out again! - It is a short flight to Adelaide with the airport is close to the CBD.  The court says Qantas will be flying and their prices are down.  Come over in the morning and back the same night – it will still be a low cost workshop.

I cancelled the Melbourne workshop because people left it until the very last minute and Melbourne venues require confirmation early.    After it was cancelled, of course people try to book – my apologies but decisions have to be made. 

My kindest regards
