That road back from Mt Gambier to Heywood, there are some craters in that thing. Signposted down to a red & black 60 now and that's almost too fast if you end up in the wrong spot in the lane.
I'd reckon that stretch between Winnap & Lyons has to be the most dangerous stretch of road in the state.

Work....
Three years ago we were told that we had to drop a days production, which also meant a days pay. That lasted for about 2 and a bit years, then we went back to our normal roster (7 days, 12 hour shifts, 84 hours per fortnight ).
Now we're told that we have to go back to dropping a day, 72 hours per fortnight.
My department has gone from Peking @ 42 million dollars of sales to down to 11 million dollars of sales over the last decade.
We're also told that they will review in 6 months. What a load of crap. This came from management. We lost a 800,000 job to a competitor. We can only hope that their product isn't good and they came back to us, that and he told us if everyone could do 7% more production that would help with the labour cost.
Next step would be for everyone to go to a 8 hour 5 days a week roster, loss even more $, then they may have to look at redundancy. Something that some people are happy to take now.
One thing for sure is that I have 64 weeks + over 400 hours of entitlements owing to me, so I'm not walking away.

Sorry to hear that. Last company I worked (contract) for had been in business over 40 years. Due to cheep Chinese imports we could no longer compete. A couple of old blokes there had been with this company right from the beginning. The company went under and these poor blokes lost all their long service leave entitlements and accumulated annual leave (plus some super). The director managed to sell the company name and piss off back to NZ.
personally I'd keep a keen eye on where the business is going. and jump ship early if need be. one sign would be if the company isn't paying suppliers on time.

I was neer blinded early this morning by a wanker with a ute covered in wanker lights. Yes some people do need spot lights but not in a well lit city street. Some of the wankers have never seen dirt but put fit them to their cars because they look cool.
