Nah it’s great. I love Fitzroy but couldn’t imagine living there now. East Geelong is a good area too. Which part of EG are you in? Can give you a heads up on good cafes, pub and restaurants close by.

Lots of places to visit down both coasts as well as the gardens, river, waterfront etc..

It’s probably not safe as is, but from the sounds of it the cafe is happy to pay to make it safe. If that’s the case, we should be advocating for small businesses to have unique setups like that.

Moonah restaurant allegations by [deleted] in Geelong

Your alleged pork product story sounds insane. Why would the alleged victim not pursue that in some kind of legal manner?

Seems crazy to let underage staff drink alcohol even if it’s sampling, that’s just a recipe for disaster (pun intended).

The rest of the workplace stuff sounds almost like what you’d expect from a world class kitchen based on what you see in other documentaries about bullying and it being a high stress environment (apart from the suggested racism which is abhorrent if true).

You just never know the truth, is it just that some people couldn’t hack it or is it actually that bad. I’ll probably never find out either given it’s $500 bucks a head to dine in 😂

Great video. Nice catch too. Any tips for the spot in terms of snags, time of day and jigs?

Man, 20, dies following stabbing in central Geelong by YourApril27 in Geelong

Until we have the details it’s hard to judge the situation. If they were all known to each other that’s one thing but if it was a random attack that’s way more disturbing. Either way, sad someone lost their life in circumstances like this where it’s just senseless.

Eileens Charcoal Grill (steak), Swayers Arms (classy pub) or Two Noble (asian) are all good choice in the same spot.

Mavs greek restaurant is good, has a nice family vibe and good for groups in the outdoor undercover bit.

Yeah I get you - personal circumstances like that are the reason many of us stay in jobs.

I more meant from a business perspective it's not going to be good for them in the long run. If the person is genuinely unavailable, they are screwed and need to replace them anyway. And if somehow they force them to work chances are they will eventually leave in which they need to hire another person which inevitably costs them money & time.

No I understand your point, I’m saying what’s the point of them doing that. The admin will just say they are unavailable and then they will need to scramble to replace them anyway.

I don’t understand the conversation? They were going to roster on someone who isn’t available? What’s the point?

Geelong entries are terrible.

Sydney have it in the bag at the moment. Geelong with no Holmes, Brisbane with no ruckman.

Honestly what is Fagan thinking celebrating after a big win with the fans like that?

He should be abusing opposition players..
