Today I have my optimistic pants on and choose to believe that this government is not creating a compliance regime for people who are currently on Disability Support Pensions. 700,000 DSP recipients. There’s enough for one for every medium-sized business in NSW.

My workplace could apply and become all manner of disabled person friendly.

We could look forward to learning the basics of sign language, understanding the finer points of recharging the battery of a wheelchair, carers coming and going, sharing the refrigerator with tiger balm, voltaren and poultices, colleagues on flexible work hours and working from home regimes, and of course, all those water dishes for all those support pets, companion animals and guide dogs…

Pleeaase Boss, pleeeaaaaaase can we get a disabled person?
