What has made you Angry Today???????

I also work in an industry where private practice and local councils overlap. Where council directives say no, you can't, not possible etc, we in private practice who actually think for a living say how can we get this to work, what can be altered to comply, how can we prove this solution meets or exceeds standards. Huge difference in thinking between public servants and private industry. One needs to be proactive and one is restrictive. Sh!ts me to tears the "no" attitude. It can be done, think how to achieve it.

Here I was thinking you're new belt failed you lol

Perfect explanation.
The shit I had to go through to register my SA Patrol to Vic was extraordinary. Such a simple process, but the people at Vic kept hand balling me everywhere. Girl at one counter says one thing, the bloke at the other counter says another...

Theft of patrols and theft of pretty much anything that's not bolted down in Melbourne is slowly creeping out to my once normally peaceful area

They're getting nicked from my area too. One got stolen from a few streets away from me.
Can't wait until we move house and I can lock it up in a shed, out of sight!!

Vicroads. Bloody inept bureaucratic plebs they are. I have club rego (heritage plates) on my old road bike which means I dont pay full registration costs but am limited to 45 days on the road per year. So Vicroads sends out annual renewal which needs to be signed off by the club to confirm I'm still a member. So i post the form off to the club scrutineer, he checks I'm still paid up, signs it and posts back to me. I then take the signed form into Vicroads to renew the permit and pay the fee, but oh no, lo and behold this inept bureaucratic non-thinker bureaucrat says no this is not acceptable. Not acceptable even though this is how it has always worked. The form needs to be signed by the national president, treasurer, secretary or club permit officer (not a club scrutineer officer). Well hello!! This is why this national club has appointed a club permit scrutineer, but oh no this is not acceptable, he's a club permit scrutineer, not a club permit officer, and we nave no details of his name on file. So i get bluntly refused at Vicroads and sent packing. I get home and call Vicroads. Why have i been rejected? Whats your name and whats your permit number and whats the scrutineer's name? Ok yes hes on the system so alls good everything checks out then they put me on bold and call Geelong Vicroads. 15 minutes later she gets back to me and says this was an interpretation issue and the new ruling on club official titles comes in 2 January 2017. Go go back to the Vicroads office and they'll stamp it. I go back, she stamps it while the bloke who knocked me back 2 hours earlier doesnt make eye contact with me. On my way out i cross paths with him and couldnt resist. Call out hey whats so obscure about this new rule coming in 2 January 2017, you didnt mention that on the memo you so blatantly read out to me? Ooh its always been the rule. "Dickhead" I signed off with. Fair dinkum a wording technicality between club scrutineer officer and club permit officer gives this d!ck the come-uppance to get all high and mighty?? No wonder these morons dont work in private industry or for themselves, these d!cks wouldn't know how to keep a client and earn an honest dollar.

Phew, rant over.

Now you've got that over & done with, you can head on down to the Medicare office and sort something out there, that's always a great place to visit ;-)
