Quick update for those wondering if #ScatteredLAPSUSHunters actually started leaking the Salesforce victims on the onion leak site:

Yes. They started with 6 of the 39 companies: #Qantas, #Albertsons, #GAP, #VietnamAirlines, #Fujifilm, and #EngieResources.

Clicking on the download link in the company's listing takes you to a Limewire link for downloading the data.

When the onion was timing out, links were posted in the Telegram channel that would take users to the listings on Breachsta[.]rs forum. To download any of these leaks from their forum listings costs 4 credits.

So the same Shiny who wrote a statement claiming forums are dead planned and implemented a plan to leak the data in a forum in the event there was interference with, or problems with, the onion leak site.

And yes, I tested a download, and it worked.

With that, I bid you all good night, and see you tomorrow.

Valid points all around. Work rules based on human science enforced for one work group and blown off for another takes its toll. Not just on the ramp, but in all service areas attached to this airline.

Qantas pilots have started training in preparation for the first Airbus A321XLR aircraft to arrive in Australia next year. As part of Qantas’ fleet renewal programme, 28 of the Airbus A321XLR aircraft have been ordered which will replace the Australian carrier's fleet of Boeing 737 jets over the next decade.

I love working on Election Day. I like working in the polling stations. I like helping people to vote. I think it is a great way to spend the day.

So in QLD it has been the local and state elections and they are run by the #ECQ. It may all be chaotic but having a computer to mark people off provides a speedy process.

The #ECQ run it. They register our details in their system and they pay us. All good.

I’m moving to WA and the #AEC runs the elections.

Why I don’t want to work for the #aec

1. They use books not computers. Makes the days longer and harder.
2. They use a private firm to take your details and pay you. So basically you are a subcontractor. I’m forced to give my private details to a private company.

Maybe someone out there can tell me that this isn’t so but i’ve checked multiple times and i’m pretty sure it is.

The federal government is a big out sourcing firm who doesn’t run anything particularly well. It didn’t used to be this bad. I worked for #DFAT when I graduated. Over time they have become a big tax wasting mess. Where giving our taxes to mates to do the job we should be paying bureaucrats to do. You may think the usual trope of bureaucrats waste money but it takes a private company to change millions into billions with the extra bonus of bad unaccountable service. #qantas

@rbreich and that applies internationally as things like #alanjoyce of #Qantas #Australia has spent the last years fkg the whole organisation and something that was once our pride and joy is now a #carcass on the #runways of the world that can't even sort out #baggage let alone flights on time.

Qantas upbeat about even higher pre-tax profit
Qantas continues to update its HY1 guidance but in a positive way. As demand continues to soar, the Australian carrier expects to close its first six months of FY23 with an underlying profit before tax of between A$1.35 billion and A$1.4
