Fay Jackson - CEO
Please see Fays
'Profile Page' for information about her. It is far too long
and impressive to list
here. Fay has been awarded Master Trainer Status with
Melbourne University, Orygen, Mental Health First Aid.
She has won many awards for her work including the
Australian Meritorious Service to Community Award,
Australian Rotary Health Research Fund. Fay's favourite sayings are "Well that's the way I remember
it!", "what's normal anyway? What does a
normal gum tree look like?", "I'm not crazy,
I am a Psychologically Diverse Citizen", "George I've
done something to the computer (fax machine, printer, phone,
car etc)". Fay has many positive attributes but technology
is not one of them. And "oh can I tell you something
funny". |

George
Stinson - IT and Sound Engineer
George Stinson has the precarious job
of keeping the IT viruses, worms, wolves and glitches
at bay. He ensures communications are running smoothly
and
offers the male perspective to the company. (A very
brave man indeed). Georges favourite saying after one
of us has done something to the computers again "Geeeeze,
look, let me sit down so I can see what you've done" and
"now that's a good inscription for your head stone"
or "and that is why I killed her your honour" which is
always said quietly under his breath as he walks
away from Fays computer.

the dubious task of teaching Fay to keep track of her money
matters, receipts, invoices etc and is frequently heard
to say "No Fay the ash tray of the car is not where
we store our receipts" and "anyone want a drink,
because I surely need one" ( only at the end of the
day, we are obviously a highly professional team). |
