If you have been following my work life dramas, there is finally an update.
:bademoticon:
All claims and counterclaims were dismissed.
The basis for dismissal of all complaints, as stated by HR - "no witnesses".
Which is patently false.
But that's the decision.
The outcome of the role review is that my job description will change.
So officially, nothing happened and everything continues on as it was.
Except my supervisor was re-employed and promoted,
probably because he demonstrated his ability to bully staff and get away with it.
I discovered why I have not been able to transfer away from this team.
According to the pre-employment screening documentation,
without a supervisors referee report the applicant is automatically rejected.
Looks like my only way out of this mess is self-employment.

2020 Onwards + Upwards
I have finally found an OS/browser combo that actually works with DA (sort of) since their "upgrades". So it's linux and a fork of firefox that finally let me use the DA site again. As long as I use the old UI I can get around. No frilly bits like inserting emoticons or art, just the basics, but at least it's something. I will just flutter on thru . . . until I have something to say.
Aussie Hopping Mouse
Yup, the Americans stole the term "Kangaroo Mouse"
so the genuine article has to be referred to as the
"Hopping Mouse"
Yesterday I was pottering about my greenhouse
and out of the corner of my eye
I noticed something
like speedy gonzales
bouncing from pot to pot.
Probably not a
kultarr
or an Australian Hopping Mouse,
since most of them are extinct,
or on the edge of extinction,
and I don't live in a true desert,
although with the drought,
it feels like it.
But it was pale, almost pinky brown,
half-mouse sized and
hopped,
very fast.
I am only about 400km from where they used to range
back when homesteading was legal
in Oz
Life is still like that in Aug 2019
Life for me lurches on from one dilemma to the next,
sometimes without a moment to blink.
My VPS provider closed without notice.
My ISP is cancelling my subsciption
because the plan is too cheap.
Their cheapest plan is now double what I currently pay.
The mobile phone provider won't give me an account
because I like to pre-pay
rather than post-pay.
The fencing contractor I hired
fell off the face of the planet
after demolishing 25% of my old fence.
And, lifes general niggles and frustrations,
like having cancer again,
continue to bug me.
My April Fools Day 2019
I woke up with a stick of cheese in my ear.
