    Our public "service" spending your tax money. $1m to put a spreadsheet together, to justify making mgov look like facebook *shakes head*

    "The federal government will pay consulting giant McKinsey nearly $1 million to develop a business case for its Facebook-inspired myGov update over the next three months."

    Government spending is always very odd.

    I was recently discussing it with my partner and she didn't know that during my years with the ATO that they supplied basically no food/drink whatsoever to staff. No tea, no coffee, no milk, nothing provided.

    Every so often a meeting might be important enough to be catered, and I'm quite sure the high up SES probably had catered meetings quite a lot, but for the most part for 95% of staff, buy your damn own.

    But yeah, go and spend money on projects with external agencies, but of course that's a whole other part of the budget....

    Obviously because someone in the federal government is mates with someone at McKinsey lol.

    The same story goes for some of the people/companies we using in the mining industry.

    Easy place to get rich here, just need to know the right person to help you out, even if it is a "one off", happens all the time out there.

    Well not really ... it was meant to get company's core business back in focus.

    It's when the company the technology is outsourced to then outsources that to another outsource, then it gets murky .... and what do you think concoursing of cars is .... QA indirectly :)
