Well always, but especially if you are live on national television.

At least today's rate announcement was a little more interesting than usual.

Right at the end he turns around and realises what he has done - gold!

Ahhhhh,.. So this is the fabled "Elderly Control Centre"
I knew it existed somewhere and my bet is, this is it!.
For those that don't know, it's the place where they control the deployment of the slow, befuddled and elderly so that they can get in your way at the most critical and inconvenient moment.

They have cameras set up all over the place to detect when people are in a hurry and rushing to do something important.
When they find such a situation, they radio through to their field agents who shuffle in on their zither frames and get to the ticket machine just in front of you, and then fossic through their purse/ wallet/ pockets for the right money/ train ticket or whatever, while you stand there behind them and watch your train pull out of the station, or your car cops a parking ticket, or, or, or, the dozen other things which you thought you could avoid if you could just nip in and do what you need to at a normal pace.

You can see in the screens that the critical areas where lots of people are in a hurry come up in red. They are the areas they concentrate on.

The areas of a less critical nature come up in yellows.
Areas where noone is detected in a hurry come up in green.

Mr. Tightlines,.. SHAME ON YOU!!!

Hi All

I watched this video and didn't find it that bad to tell you the truth. I then forgot all about the matter.

Today, I have learnt that the guy has lost his job:

idle.slashdot.org/firehose.pl?op=view&type=story&sid=10/02/05/1459220

and

news.hereisthecity.com/news/business_news/9904.cntns


Imagine if you were sacked at work over a technicality ?. Who here has a mortgage ? (me). It would be the end of everything for me. I for one have opened up a rude email as work and kept on reading it. Very sad that somebody has lost their job over a silly thing like this. I think Macquarie need to man up and reinstate Dave. What do you think ???????

pweedas, no doubt the control centre also co-ordinates the Toyota 'Crowns' on the road. You know the ones, as soon as there is a free flowing lane of traffic, along comes a Toyota Crown at half the speed limit, stopping at all the green lights.

I follow this blog: http://thingsthatexciteme.tumblr.com/ and would scan quickly through it once while at work each day. I guess it could be labeled porn, but I think of it as art. Kind of scary to think I could lose my job for looking at art?
