Our conservative government is slowly exercising their "Social Dawinism" policies.

Good.

It's a jungle out there and if you can't survive, then you'll wither on the vine. No room for soft c**k compassionate tree hugger policies.

Damned f**king straight.

Just because we're less broke than other countries doesn't mean we're not broke.

Damned f**king straight.

Just as most people justify their own self-interest as compassion.

Especially the lefties. They hijack morality for their own individual causes like it's going out of fashion.

I just wish Abbott would scrap the paid parental leave nonsense.

Nope. Good policy. Maybe drop it to $100k like the Greens want but that's it.

Hi Gronk, you are rich, I have now left the workforce - can you send me some money so I can live as well as you :)

Hi Gronk, you are rich. I am too according to the Labour Govt. Sure I'm doing alright, but living in Sydney is expensive, so I could always do with a but more. Anyway, can you send me some money because I'd like to renovate my bathroom at home.

Hi Gronk.

f**k off to Cuba, pinko.

Test finished early gives our bowlers and extra days rest and less likely for a change

2nd test starts on the 20th

India are here next summer for 4 tests, Johnson didn't play them last time they were here and we won 4-0. No Harris either :eek:

Doubling up in strike power, it means we will win the next series 8 nil. ;-)

Hey guys, i have a question for you all.

I am going in for some surgery soon and i will need some time off work. It is for an injury i sustained before i started working where i am at the moment. I have not had any other time off while ive been here or am i claiming compo or anything. I need 2 weeks off and i am owed enough Personal Leave and Annual Leave to be able to do it. Although, my boss seems to believe that because i did this injury before i started working for him that i need to take it ALL off with my Annual Leave.

He has agreed on the dates, but i am under the impression that if i am unfit for work and have medical documentation to prove it, plus the Personal (Sick) Leave owed, i should be able to take it no worries.

Who is right?

You are. If you are sick you are sick. He cannot make you take annual leave.

First of all, best of luck with the pec implants. You're going to look huge.

As for the personal leave, you're sweet. You've accrued the leave, and you're unavailable for work due to a medical issue. End of story IMO, but might be worth checking with the Fair Work Ombudsmen just to check for sure. Were you asked to disclose pre existing medical issues when you were hired?

Cheers guys.

Nah i wasn't asked to disclose any but i told him that i did need an operation and he was all sweet for me to have it, he still is.

I was going to call the FWO but i will be speaking to him about it tomorrow morning before they open.

I'm on the same page as you two, but ive been thinking about it that much i was starting to second guess myself.

I'm having enough stress with the whole surgery part, the last thing i need is this shit.

well then you are gonna look weird with a baby cow hanging off your pecs :?

yeah, I'll back the sick leave people too ... medical situation and you can prove it
and he shouldn't be upset in any way - if you have been there long enough to accrue 2 weeks leave then you've been there a while - not like you have dropped the "oh I have to take 2 weeks off" a week into employment

don't stress about surgery - my theory has always been, they can do what they like to me once they knock me out, I won't know :sarcasm: .... you'll just have a nice sleep and then wake up

and you again. It seems that being a samaritan is antiquated and being a heartless prick is the new black.

Here I was thinking the Samaritan made a personal sacrifice rather than just voting for a government that would tax everyone richer than him so that he wouldn't have to make any sacrifices at all.

You have made many inaccurate assumptions there merkin.
