00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,880
Speaker 2: come into summer because the shots from Bondai yesterday were

00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:10,320
Speaker 2: just great.

5
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:11,879
Speaker 1: You've got some employees.

6
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 2: Saying you've got to come into the office and others

7
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 2: saying no, it's a right to have a work from

8
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:18,040
Speaker 2: home day. But the thing is Bondai Beach has got

9
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 2: a brand new look because it's full of laptops. Oh

10
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 2: how good is this? Just people grabbing their laptop, tuck

11
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 2: it under the arm, grab your towel as well.

12
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: Bikinis are on, Let's go to work, Let's.

13
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,320

14
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 3: then the swim and good in it.

15
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:38,840
Speaker 2: I mean, what are you doing if you need your

16
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 2: laptop because you should be able to do most of

17
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 2: your tasks on your phone. But it's interesting to see

18
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 2: that people are going for that professional look. I'm definitely

19
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 2: on the the laptop that almost screens open, that's how

20
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 2: busy I am.

21
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: But hang on a minute, I'm just putting a bit

22
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 1: of SBA fifty on.

23
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 3: You don't want your laptop near the sandy and like

24
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just.

25
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 2: It's a good point, like to me working on a

26
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 2: laptop from the beaches, like breakfast in bed.

27
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 3: It's just horrible. It's I agree, it is. It is horrible.

28
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:09,559
Speaker 1: It's crumbs and sand.

29
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 3: Well, that's right, you're sweating, you know what I mean.

30
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 3: You've got a nice cream. It's just that your hands

31
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 3: are all greasy. It's you don't want to be working.

32
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 2: Your laptops are overheated in the sun.

33
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 3: Yep, you're flirting with some Brazilian guy who's just rocked up.

34
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you're having a conversation with him. He's saying,

35
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 2: do you think you've got to play some sun squen

36
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:32,199
Speaker 2: on my back?

37
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: And you're on a work call and all of us,

38
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you can hear these foreigners that

39
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 1: are just hitting on you.

40
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 2: Godsense, a Buccants has a drink.

41
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 3: A vet's given us, a girl from Bondi. You've seen firsthand,

42
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 3: Bondye laptops.

43
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: What are you seeing of it?

44
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 3: So my business works Monday to Thursday, so every Friday

45
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 3: i'm around bond Die.

46
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 2: I find it just bugier than the weekend.

47
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 1: That the boardwalks can't walk.

48
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 2: Through laptops everywhere, But everyone's probably thinking the same about me.

49
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 2: But I'm thinking, why aren't they at work? Where?

50
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 3: Where are they? What are they doing? Could could they

51
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,079
Speaker 3: set up desks down on Bond Page so you can

52
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:14,959
Speaker 3: hire them out.

53
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: It's not a work station.

54
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 3: It's because we were going to have a couple of

55
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 3: bars down there at Kabana Bar and stuff, weren't we.

56
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 2: And on the hot days, Fits and Betty, you could

57
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 2: actually put the desks into the kiddie pool at the

58
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 2: north end, so you've still got your feet in the

59
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:37,119
Speaker 2: water while you're working. You'd high high one when you're ready. Yeah.

60
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: No, Fridays didn't work, so I'm relaxing on my Friday

61
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: thirty dollars a day.

62
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 2: Grab yourself a desk, I reckon.

63
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:46,160
