Ignore that cough. Worrying about it is bad for your heart. Straight to trash.

Finger pointing is also dangerous. I had finger pointing at me in a jovial and jocular way, from someone who turned up at 7 am and left a 3 pm. The liked to joke that I always turned up at 9 or 930. Problem being they weren't around to see me leave at 530 or 6.

+ 1. Then I bought the company . Problem solved ...

The one thing that time sheets are important for is OHS coverage.

Where can I get a job like this

So what happens if that person has a day off? LOL.

Translations & subtitles are interesting things. I remember flying QF to Japan in 2011. They had the English bit in full motion & then the Japanese bit in drawings for the safety video. The Japanese bit was in Japanese but with English subtitles. When it came to the bit about oxygen, merely the word Oxygen was on the screen.

Interested to know this too... a mate has been a couple of times and raves about it... however I'm not sure if his standards are the same as mine.

I've thought about taking the good lady on it for her birthday.. perhaps will just go to the exec lounge at HSW

There's no kitchen onboard the tram is there? I don't expect the food to be top of the range if that is the case. Might not be a run tram ride either..but a compromise on both.

Considering almost all my senior management are ex Tube, I'm surprised there's not more Englishisms like that around here.

The Restaurant Tram covers several different routes around the tram network including going through St Kilda.
