Not helped when the ss keeps changing, I'm sure they just all assume the first one has the basics right. Something seems to have changed in the Geelong office recently. I know they have made an effort to increase the number of admin staff, maybe that has finally made a difference, maybe its new upper management? Not only are they asking questions instead of just doing then finding out later that they were wrong, we are actually getting replies to emails!!

Sometime it feels slow but I think that is part of building unfortunately.
