Some of the savings the ABC could make without job losses were highlighted for us yesterday in a Fairfax paper, the Sydney Morning Herald, where a former manager of Radio National said:

They didn't have a 9-5 mentality. They had a 10-3 mentality. They planned their work day around their afternoon yoga class.

That does not happen in Hobart, it does not happen in Adelaide, it does not happen in Gladstone but it does happen in Ultimo and that is where the ABC management need to come to grips with its charter and the aspirations of the Australian people.
