Amazing revelations in The Age on Saturday about pornography and sex in the workplace at Connex. http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2004/03/19/1079199421820.html What the report leaves out is the fact that also in the County Court documents, which are publicly available, it states that the other executives who had a "personal involvement" with Mrs Michelle Mazzarella were Mr Bruce Hughes the CEO of Connex Melbourne and Mr Barry James the General Manager for Human Resources. The documents also indicate that this "personal involvement" involves Hughes and James possibly having an adulterous affair also with Mrs Mazzarella at the same time she was having one with another employee � a big love ring. Then Hughes and James took action to dismiss this employee based on allegations made by Mrs Mazzarella in relation to their affair. Seems like Connex is also covering up the email pornography scandal as well. I wonder what �real' counselling and discipline was served upon the senior executives and senior managers within Connex who were involved in the grossly serious misconduct of downloading and distributing to each other sexually explicit and discriminatory material � NONE I BET! In the public interest, the question Connex should answer is who actually was involved in this and what action did they really take to stop this behaviour. No wonder the Melbourne Train system is in such a mess when the CEO of Connex has his mind on other matters. It is good to see the people of Melbourne will get value for money being paid $345m pa.

If they are too busy rooting one another and trawling the web for electronic gash to do their jobs, you'll suffer.

Sounds like a fun office to work in, a few jokes, everyone enjoying each others company and everyone getting laid. Until someone gets jealous and presses the "f*ck you" button and all shit breaks loose. I can see a day coming where same sex offices will the norm. As far as looking at "porn" on the net, I maintain a web site that contains nudity, pictures are updated each week. The busiest day of the week is Tuesday. The quietest day is Sunday. Kerry

The perfect way for Connex to improve customer service! I have developed the perfect marketing strategy for Connex to commemorate operating the entire Melbourne Rail system from the 18 April and to entice more people to use the system. For the male traveller Connex can give away free passes to either the Men's Gallery or Goldfingers on Lonsdale Street and for monthly or yearly ticket holders, they receive as an extra, lap dance voucher. For the girls of course, Connex can give them free dinners for two plus a nights accommodation, the only condition is Connex selects your partner for the evening. Don’t worry it will not be a Connex employee (certainly not an executive), rather it will be a man obviously selected from a range of available AFL football players accustomed to this sought of activity – and yes only one man - sorry! And the major prize to be provided by Connex for the women selected as the best sports fan and frequent train traveller is a free end of season trip to the Gold Coast to be with the Canterbury Bulldogs rugby league team. So phone Connex now for entry details!
