Once again, to save people from paying a $39 monthly subscription for Capital Brief, I’ll clarify my side of the story here on X. Don’t believe their sensationalist headlines crafted to drive clicks, controversy and subscriptions. I did not cancel International Women’s Day at Employment Hero. This is disinformation, and ACMA may want to investigate any reports to the contrary. Employment Hero operates according to ā€œThe EH Way.ā€ The EH Way means we are: Mission First - Our mission is to make employment easier and more valuable for everyone. Remote First - We believe that by working remotely, we can be as inclusive as possible and access incredible talent from regional and remote areas, working parents, carers, and people living with disabilities. Apolitical - We believe work is where you come to work, not a place for politics or DEI agendas to be imposed. We also believe in a workplace meritocracy that recognises performance first, not gender. Additionally, with a team of 1,300 people across 19 different countries—each with unique ethnic, religious, and political landscapes—this approach is both simpler and more inclusive. I’m regularly told by employees that the EH Way is a refreshing shift from the corporate BS that’s been getting out of hand lately. Yes, I have some personal opinions that I share here on X, including some jokes, memes, and a belief in free speech. That’s my right as an individual, but at work, I stay laser-focused on achieving our mission. If you’re looking to work for a business with a meaningful mission, the ability to work remotely full-time, and a refreshingly simple, apolitical approach, then Employment Hero might be just the place for you.

Been a huge fan of Melb artist @Rhett for a long time, so I was fascinated to read about the memecoin $turbo he created that reached a market cap of $80 m. @dvanboom asks Rhett what happens to memecoins when the hype dies down. Great read on @CapitalBrief. capitalbrief.com/article/thi…
