oh don't get me wrong i think middle to top level bureaucrats are overpaid coddled leeches sucking off the public teat.

frontline PS eg paramedics, nurses, police are the soul of the nation

with respect to Australia post, its slightly different. This is a commercial enterprise, makes money for its shareholders, and such should be treated the same as any publicly listed company. If you delve deeper into why those execs were gifted $3k watches, ignore the hyperbole, it was because they were able to stitch up some lucrative deals with the banks.....job well done! reward for "having a go" as opposed to reward for sitting at home and watching their ABC luvvies harp on about "why australia is so divided, or why we are so racist"....
