"I will buy from you, if you don't send it by Australia Post...."

Australia Post gets a Snake Oil Salesman as it's new CEO.

Vitamin company Blackmores chief executive Christine Holgate will be the new chief executive at Australia Post. First comments: Ms Holgate said she felt privileged to be appointed as CEO of such an iconic Australian corporation and, "one of the most resilient and successful postal businesses anywhere in the world". What she really means that she is either completely out of touch with reality or is a weasel wording corporate bullshit artist. What she said can be rephrased as "Australia Post is dying a lingering death and is an abject failure - that pretty much everyone in Australia it totally fed up with all their bullshit and is using other delivery services - if only to get away from the stolen parcels, late deliveries, being carded and bad service." Qualifies as being able to talk out her arse. [  ] Tick Previous Job. Snake Oil Salesman to the Profoundly Neurotic - "Ease your ailments with our potent magic pills".

The heads up on the Australia Post contractor scam.

Precarious work structures foster parasite economy that cut workers' pay     Josh Bornstein July 28 2016 - 12:00AM http://www.smh.com.au/business/comment-and-analysis/precarious-work-structures-foster-parasite-economy-that-cut-workers-pay-20160727-gqetwy.html In the lead up to the federal election, Woolworths got lucky.

Woolworths was spared the sort of ignominy that 7-Eleven has suffered after exposure of its own wage fraud scandal. The workplace watchdog's report excoriates Woolworths for its mistreatment of the workers caught up in "complex labour supply chains with networks of corporate structures and intermediaries to facilitate cash payments, recruitment of vulnerable workers and production of false records"....

Post Offices + PO Boxes = Pffft.

https://www.facebook.com/australiapost/posts_to_page/ ‎ Deanne Hanchant ‎   to   Australia Post 15 hrs  ·  We have a Post Office box and most of our mail is addressed to it, however, there are some Government departments and overseas deliverers that will not mail to a PO Box and insist on a street address. We do not have a street delivery where we are. The local PO has told us that anything not addressed to our PO Box will no longer be put into our box but will be kept inside behind the counter as per Australia Post advice.  When I rang Australia Post to query this they said it is  NOT the case in an area where there is no street delivery (which is what we were told when we first got a PO Box) and it is the local PO who have made this decision, not Austpost. We took the PO Box in the first place so we could actually get our mail because we couldn't get to the shop when it was open! This new policy will affect a number of customers. Do we all just cancel our...
