Bureau of Meteorology clustafek
Seems the Bureau of Mismanagement has no money for basic met stuff…
Bureau of Meteorology management has threatened the organisation’s global status after unilaterally deciding to further cut costs in its forecasting and observation programs,… …meteorologist, … alarmed about the cuts to the balloon program. “They are vital to our model inputs, verification and updating of severe weather forecasts, especially for thunderstorms,” this person said. “The bureau has decided to cut upper-air observations for cost despite this stupid rebrand.” While a three-year rebranding program ate into company resources and time, resulting in a new logo and a desire to stop referring to the bureau as the BoM,… …The Saturday Paper can reveal a plan by BoM leadership to extend the reduction in balloon launches to capital cities, to save money and move to a “launch on request” model after a morning release. This plan has been fiercely contested internally and may have been delayed after an offer from the aviation division of the bureau to fund the twice-daily launches from its budget until the end of the financial year… Meanwhile, a new uniform…:hmm: ...As part of the BoM rebranding effort – which management insists was just a “refresh” – certain public-facing employees were told they would have to wear a newly designed bureau uniform. When the polo shirts arrived, however, many women on staff realised the largest size of shirt was “smaller than would fit the average Australian woman”… Full article via: https://www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/...-forecasts#mtr … |
…”When the polo shirts arrived, however, many women on staff realised the largest size of shirt was “smaller than would fit the average Australian woman”…
And further, on matters meteorological, should the aforesaid women on staff wearing these new uniforms happen to be caught out in the rain, say for instance taking observations, the lucky members of the public would no doubt be delighted to be invited to join the judging panel. All in the spirit of friendly competition and perhaps next year’s calendar? |
BoM, from the same management school of expertise as Queensland Forensic and Scientific Sciences.

The CEO making all these decisions is a Liberal Party hack who has banned any comments about global warming. Don't blame the left for this.
“…in 2014, the Minister then (Greg Hunt) killed off a proper investigation of the BOM to supposedly “protect the reputation and integrity of the institution”…” “…the Bureau of Meteorology’s strange practice of “editing” raw data. The Bureau says it works to the “highest possible standards”. So an independent audit would clear them, silence the critics, and restore their reputation. Strangely, instead they have been apparently avoiding an independent audit for six years now and counting…” https://joannenova.com.au/2017/08/bo...s-why-not-bom/ |

When the polo shirts arrived, however, many women on staff realised the largest size of shirt was “smaller than would fit the average Australian woman”… Wet T-shirt contests remain wildly popular in northern Australia, despite being in decline internationally |

“…While Australia is flooding and lives depend on forecasts, the management of our weather bureau is cutting back on meteorologists and on weather balloons, but they’re making sure they do frivolous exercises in rebranding with a new kindergarten logo and calls to be “The Bureau”, and not the BoM…” |
“The Bureau”, |

Humour. Lost in the perennially woke. Life is short, take it less seriously. There really is more to life than spending your waking hours looking to be offended.

Well spoken Lucille!
