Embarrassing how inaccessible and unresponsive the @Officeworks customer support team is.
No response to email within 72 hours, and no indication of wait time on calls.
A timely reminder we need to make sure our customer support at @EasyAgile is top notch. We’ve work to do.
Monster. Love it. twitter.com/fox_netball/st…
Great night out with @bis_illawarra and some of the @EasyAgile crew last Friday. Great acceptance speech by Hayley Rodd.
The team owns this as they are accountable for our workplace and our culture. Kudos to the whole team!
Fun night. Some ended up at The Harp for karaoke... twitter.com/EasyAgile/stat…
@airport_girl Not obsolete. I often get the ‘don’t call me Sir, that was my dad’ as a response from older gentlemen.

Second to last session at Agile 2022. FOMO. Learning from my peers - such a lovely and peppy team for the morning post party last night.
Agile 2022 closing. It has been a fun week. Thanks team @EasyAgile!
Thanks for sharing @JeromeSalimao! twitter.com/atlassiandev/s…
Hmmmmm goodness. Better than a spoon full of Vegemite, that’s for sure! twitter.com/EasyAgile/stat…
There seems to be some trepidation from our US counterparts in the agile community. A few have been given Vegemite like it is Nutella.
Not Nutella! Needs butter. At least 50% butter / 50% Vegemite on sourdough is my recommendation.
Give it a try Leslie! twitter.com/EasyAgile/stat…

Exploring BDD again. Has always been so elusive for me, and never managed to attain the maturity or discipline to get there.
Here’s to continual experimentation and improvement!
Thanks @mattwynne.
Reflecting on a session from Women in Agile yesterday where @CatSwetel instructed us to drop ‘just’ from our introductions.
Don’t put yourself down.
You are not ‘just’ a product manager, you have tremendous experience in an area. Share what you are an expert in instead.

And yes, I look this stunned most of the time these days.
The team is gearing up for our quarterly Advance @EasyAgile which kicks off in t-minus 47 minutes.
Nice to have the remote and local crew together. I missed the last one due to COVID and unfortunately we have a few absent this time around as well.
Have yourself a lovely day.
Feels like the first nice winter day I’ve experienced so far.
And here it is folks. The retweet as I was incorrectly mentioned on a mug with the above tweet has now been put on a water bottle.
Definitely. Meta.

@Wise - just to expand on this. I have been waiting over 10 days now for a reply to various support requests.
If I don’t have an answer by 10am AEST tomorrow I am contacting the ombudsman: afca.org.au
@Wise team, I'm really struggling to get a hold of your support team and have some pretty basic questions answered about receiving funds which are still listed as pending.
How can we escalate this and get an answer? (hint; I need to make a transfer, and it's late due to you)

@rizvie Thank you Riz, I will take a look at Airwallex.
@michaelneale Yes, thank you. Should say I’m also an OFX customer.
OFX’s customer support is excellent, and I’ve found their rates pretty compelling too.
They don’t offer debit cards though which is a bit of a pain. If they had that … whoa, I’d consolidate.
Really frustrating experience with Wise over the weekend - their product mainly, their slow responses to requests for help as well.
Venting now. And seeking suggestions for alternatives.
Got an alternative you recommend? Let me know.
