Freedom!

I've resigned as President, as an executive member, as the Media person and web developer and even as a member for Prosper Australia. This is, mind, having finished a politicians "re-education" pack, a "simple message" leaflet, three websites and giving necessary details for staff members to organise an event.

This is largely due to the inability of one (almost full-time) individual in the organisation to give clear instructions on what they wanted in areas of their responsibility, and their refusual to take direction from others when they had the authority to do so.

So rather than engage in what would be the equivalent of a long and portracted IR dispute, I simply left the organisation. It is probably easier to implement the ideas of Henry George outside the organisation nominally designed for such a purpose.

This does mean that I currently have no permanent work. Financially I am more than OK however; there is close to $10K in my savings account, I have another $20K in "incoming income" (invoices, loans etc) and my rent is paid for the next nine months.

Summer days approach ;-)

Quite the opposite really. Catharsis.

There's some good people whom I can still work with and was intending to do so anyway. We have plans.

"We have plans."

You will need that Mo' to tweak evilly as you plot and scheme then! ;-)

Good for you re bailing out of your untenable work situation. Take some deep breaths and enjoy your Catharsis.

That mental image did come to mind! ;-)

I spent some time weighing up the options. The fact is I can still achieve what I want to through different means and without the problems.
