Judgement time | The Spectator Australia
When does an error in judgement cost someone their job? It depends.
If it is Gladys Berejiklian, you are safe. If it is Laura Tingle, you are safe. But what about Christine Holgate, Australia’s Postmaster in Chief?
It was reported yesterday that Holgate gave ‘luxury’ watches as presents to a number of her senior staff as a reward for completing a task. Total cost of $12,000 for four watches.
To start with, what an idiotic thing to do. To give (relatively) cheap Cartier watches to her already highly paid staff. Where are the IWCs and the Patek Philippes? Even downmarket with Rolex. Surely Holgate would recognise the insult in giving such cheap presents to her highly paid executives.
Adding insult…
