We have the occasional network issue from Perth to
Port Hedland (both in Western Australia, with Port
Hedland being a couple of thousand km's north of
Perth).
When management phone up, I always reply with:
"Have you looked at a map? See how far north Port
Hedland is...that's all uphill you know!"
Never fails to amaze me how many will nod in
agreement...
Cheers
Connor
