This is what they do normally I don't have much faith in numberplate recognition after my car was driven to the snow and back past twenty highway patrol with no stop while my license was suspended last year. I wasn't driving, but they never stopped us. The cars/sensors are supposed to tag you within a second.

If they think they'll be out of this lockdown in just two weeks, they're loving delusional. Especially as they didn't stage-4 this thing like they should've two weeks ago. You poor bastards are in for the long haul trying to stamp this one out.

I was worried about whether everything in the order would come today given yesterday's announcement. Fortunately, everything was in my order. I picked up a few more things when daughter and I went down the road this morning. People didn't seem to be panic buying when we were there before 12, but I'll guarantee that changed in a heartbeat once the full lockdown was announced.

Still waiting to hear back from boss about Monday. I've said I want to go in for a few hours to sort out some poo poo for EOFY, and then asked for WFH. If they don't offer WFH, I'm not going in. gently caress it.

We dragged rear end because the NSW playbook has been "Do contact tracing", which to be fair has worked well in the past, it just wasn't 'designed' to deal with how quick Delta spreads. The tracing can't keep up with the spread, we should have locked down sooner, and it feels like it was delayed to keep inline with school holidays. Looking forward to all the fuckwits who cock this up for other states by not staying home. Some dickhead on the news last night getting onto a plane was "well I'll just take my chances to see if I get in" STAY HOME! gently caress!

The Sydney playbook sucks TBH. Realistically you need to slam that lockdown button immediately along with contact-tracing, because otherwise by the time you've traced a potential case they've spent days wandering around half a city through random eateries, shops, and cinemas.

Infinitum posted:Boss is telling me to come to work, and they not offering WFH From what I've been reading, they must let you WFH if it's possible for you to do so. They can only require essential employees whose job cannot be done from home to be on-site. Daughter was at the pub when lockdown was announced. They told patrons they'd be closing at 6 and staying closed for the entire lockdown period. Police actually came into the pub while daughter was there to check they were complying with the rules.

That tends to be at the discretion of the employer, and employers like having their staff where they can be seen looking busy.

My mate's crazy boss kept people coming into the office all through lockdown in Melbourne last year. They dobbed him in a bunch of times and he just hasn't paid the fines.

bowmore posted:Your boss sucks Yup. They just announced a bunch of new sites, and I was legitimately near one of them. So gently caress it I'll just say I went there, then use these 14 days to start applying for a new job. I said it earlier that I have basically gone to work every day since the pandemic started, and now when we're in lockdown, and they CAN offer WFH (but don't), they can 100% get hosed. "People will just have to wear masks inside" EXCEPT THEY loving DON'T. Over it. Absolutely loving over it.

I think it was in one of the Guardian articles. I will keep looking for it. It doesn't seem to be mentioned in todays public health order. edit There was a public health order requiring employers to allow employees to wfh where practicable but it was repealed in January. quote:Returning to the workplace https://www.nsw.gov.au/covid-19/safe-workplaces/employers/working-from-home Lolie fucked around with this message at 10:18 on Jun 26, 2021 |

State of Origin in Brisbane tomorrow will be interesting, if enough people (some I know from NSW who already went up to Bris a few days ago) pack the stadium and one of them has it.
