Yesterday’s #SaturdayPaper page 1 story on the misfeasance finding against a senior Medicare employee mentions that the submission, totalling 929 pages, was only emailed to the public servant 17 minutes before she made her decision.
But there’s more column space given to the lack of evidence that she printed it. Modern office work does not require printing things. I signed off on many thousands as a Minister, almost never printed anything. But I read everything I signed, and IT data showed when it landed in my inbox, and when I signed it.
Printing is irrelevant. 17 minutes between receiving info and making the decision is all that matters in this case.
Better than my usual result thanks to a couple of lucky guesses. I’ll take the points. #SaturdayPaper

"No-brainer"
A reminder about the Sunday Paper, begun as a middle finger to the #SaturdayPaper deplatforming a certain group of writers.

Every Saturday, I do the quiz online while I flatten the newspaper under the chess board. Unless it’s cold and rainy, then I stay in bed to do the quiz.
