''It's quite clear that we got ourselves through this recession by binging on drinks, drugs and burgers"
The marvelous sensationalists of Australian leftist media outlet, The Age are at it again. From a single survey and two purported 'experts' Richard Webb has deduced that during the Global Financial Crisis Australians "...painted on a happy face, popped a few pills then buried our sorrows in booze and junk food."
But whats even weirder is the way this 'journalism' (if you could call it that) somehow manages to metamorphosis into an Apple plug:
''We are about a year off open warfare between new technology and old,'' he says. He predicts that in two to three years' time this transition will reach a tipping point, ''then everyone will have to have a Kindle or an iPad''.
In year 9 Richard, I was continually reminded how important it was to link paragraphs in a piece, but hey! if a writer for the Age doesn't have to do it then why should I?
Nice work Richard

Update: Dave the Banker
In an about face possibly due to public pressure, Macquarie Bank has spared mid employee David Kiely, affectionately labeled 'Dave the banker' by media outlets. Dave rose to notoriety after scrolling through pics of Miranda Kerr
All we can say is, what next? Porn policy at your workplace? Sounds good :)

Is it possible to agree with Hitler?
Hitler was right about one thing, the iPad sucks...
Disagree? drop a comment
Do you have your rights at Work...to view porn?
Media outlets such as The Age and Herald Sun have jumped on recent controversy enveloping unfortunate Macquarie employee, David Kiely who was sprung during a live telecast "...looking at semi-nude pictures of Australian model Miranda Kerr on his computer..."
You can see Kiely left, caught in the act
But as online group, Here Is The City, launches an online campaign to save the job of procrastinating Kiely, Several questions come to mind: is Keily liable if Macquarie aren't filtering undesirable sites, is he really just one of millions of lazy, desperate accountants worldwide and is Aussie Miranda Kerr just too damn irresistible? Time will tell...
