It once was a government department, remember. The Post Master General Department.

Absolutely it was and if we want to return to that situation then lets re nationalise it. Its a bit like being partly pregnant - there isnt such a thing, AP is either an enterprise that is government owned paying a divident to government through its economic activity or it is a government department running as a cost centre that may recover some of those costs but isnt defined by corporate policies designed to make a profit.

The PMG was a service department providing, mail, telephone, telegraph, the ABC, and many other services across Australia with offices in the big cities and the smallest hamlets. Some people thought that something doing a bloody good job could be privatised and do better. Ha, bloody Ha.

Dunno, I thought the watch 'bonuses' was way out of line for well salaried 'public servants'.

Performance bonuses are normal business practice.
I get far more angry when corporate heavy weights get there bonus regardless of performance. Or lack there off.
If the execs did a good job & earned the company many hundreds of thousands then a $3000 watch is a drop in the ocean.
To me it is a storm in a tea cup.

Is Posty1 a member of AULRO? We may have to respect forum rules.

I just want my small parcel that was last recorded as having arrived in Perth on 8th from Singapore. An online inquiry lodged last w/e hasn't received any attention but prevents any other online inquiry. The phone tracking inquiry can't decipher tracking numbers, skips parts of its messages then says good-bye and hangs-up.

Can't find a Cartier that cheap on their website? Must be a Chinese knockoff, eBay special.
