The latest employment forecast from consulting firm tangent Deloitte Access Economics is out, telling us things we know and guesses we don't. We're across that inflation is moderating, wages are tracking in line with RBA expectations, and interest rates are coming down. But that healthy outlook but that masks "imbalances in where jobs are being generated, and an abysmal productivity performance". (Not you, you're very productive. They mean it broadly).

It is largely tipped to make a 25-basis point cut (in practice the rate would lower by 0.25%, but it's not a literal 0.25% lowering of the overall rate). Some outlier economists suggest the rate will be cut by 50-basis points.

I'm back at work! (And happy about it). If you're back at work, but can't stand it - you might need to wait a bit... it's not the best time to be looking for a new job. https://t.co/BCuSXUjZb0
This year (August) workers at small businesses get the ‘right to disconnect’. For those already with it, has the first few months changed our always-on work culture? https://t.co/H3nOYZfYmo
I'm not a huge gambler, but I'd have put a hell of a lot of money on "Crown opens a 'VIP casino' without pokies, and almost immediately begins lobbying to have pokies" https://t.co/2bVk1maxvd
