Congrats mate.

Patience always wins, young Grasshopper. I am glad you didn't burn any bridges the other day when it all came to a head. Now you can enjoy your work, and if the other bloke starts giving you a hard time, refer him to us. LOL.

Have to wait 2 wks for test results to find out exactly what it is but I now also am sporting metal clips inside the wound in case they need to pin point the spot for radiation?? Hmmmm don't like sound of that but hey, I not going to stress until pathology results are back :)

Getting in quick before the winter rush hey!!!??? ;)

Hey guys. It'd been a pretty big week for me. Here comes a bit of an insight into me and who I am.

I've been a workplace delegate for a few years now, at Qantas, and have put my all into my role and the protection of my colleagues rights and their jobs. As most will know, it's been a massive year at Qantas with 5000 jobs to go and massive hits in my area of telephone sales with 540 jobs being made redundant in Melbourne and Brisbane.'

Anyway, the first half of this week was spent in Melbourne at the Australian Services Union National Conference. I had an amazing time, meeting other delegates and hearing from some fantastic speakers but the best part of the conference for me was the conference dinner. At this dinner the National Delegate of the Year award was presented to the delegate that was shown to have put the most into the role and met a range of criteria. This award was given to me.

You can read more about it, as I think I have written enough on a post, here. There's a rare photo of me there too.

Good on you Aaron, Would have been better if you were wearing a Forum Shirt but pretty cool anyways ;)

Good effort there mate.

having the satisfaction of proving to a customer that they were indeed wrong and having them apologise for being absolute cocks

About to head to the hospital for the planned Caesarian of our first child William Scott Macdonald. If all goes to plan we will be parents by 8:30am today.
After 3 years of trying and looking at ivf we fell pregnant naturally by a little miricle against the odds poly cystic ovaries and endometriosis made it almost impossible! After some interesting times during pregnancy we have made it to the big day!
Here goes nothing!

Good luck and all the best mate.... my first was an emergency C-section and it was so surreal like I was looking through the lens of a camera but my second was booked in and planned so I could take it in a bit better and enjoy the arrival of my son Alexander..

Look forward to the good news a bit later.!!!

good luck mate we got our precious lil girl through similar circumstances not quite as bad as your though. but once we "stopped trying" she fell pregnant.

anyways best of luck I love fatherhood is a life charger but can't imagine life without her now.

Thought the same, seems wrong you have less time for holidays that you want. Don't treat my staff like that I pay them out of their sick leave because they never take a sicky.
