Ill be based at another government organisation, but on behalf of a managed service provider.
Its a brave new world for me, I have spent the last 13 years at 2 health services so this will be a very different scenario. Note to anyone who is interested in a leg up, there are opportunities available that wouldn't ordinarily be open for people who might fall short on qualifications, simply because there is a shortage of people out there and a lot of roles are opening up because of Covid. You might even find, that previously where one person was required companies are putting 2 resources in, just in case of a covid layoff. Thry, You will be fine as Cap suggested, we know a few frontline nurses who have called it quits or gone into other healthcare areas. There is a burnout factor in healthcare services and I reckon you have done your time and will be happier elsewhere.

Yep
Good luck with the change Thry.
There are quite a few areas that will be impacted long term by the pandemic.
It's a bit bizarre
Just around where I live roads and shops today are as quiet, in fact quieter, than at any time during lockdowns.
So we open up for the sake of the economy, but people have introduced their own forms of lockdown.
Not sure where that leaves the economy.
It's probably just a period of readjustment after Christmas, combined with increasing case numbers...but some businesses are probably no better off than they were during lockdown.

Vic Ambulance service has gone code red which means not enough vehicles/crews to service the metro area.
Long lines at Western health ER with Covid symptoms and rumours of lockdown measures...

Finally, there's some reason to be happy that Barnaby Joyce is back in the Cabinet. Let's hope he can use the skills honed in dealing with Johnny Depp against The Joker. He'd be much better than the spineless Scotty from Marketing who has spent the last week trying to avoid responsibility for the situation. Now his own Border Force is involved, that aint going to wash anymore.
I never warmed to Djokovic even after the shuttle drivers who drove players from their hotels to the stadium described him as one of their friendliest and funny customers. But the arrogance is out there for all to see now. Can you imagine Federer or Nadal acting in this way?

We gave him an exemption, copped massive backlash as he was flying here then detained him for 10 hours before changing our minds. Laughing stock of the world.

Yep.
SloMo is to leadership what a flathead is to a marlin. He has two cards in his deck - 1) Slogans ...2) (Shallow) Pep talks. Sometimes he marvelously combines the two. Dutton is rubbing his hands together.

Yep, I'm glad I'm getting a booster today.
Surely, the Federal Govt could have cancelled his visa anyway on character grounds, to wit being an outspoken anti-vaxxer. And then there's his father's feeble attempt at mounting an insurrection, although to be fair anti-vaxxers everywhere are now swapping their hi-vis gear for "I love Novak" T-shirts before heading out for another rally (if they can find any mates who have such T-shirts, that is).
