I guess we can all speculate, but until Robert comes back and tells us, we're in limbo.

Hi all,
in Oz, there industries such as IT (Information Technology (computers)), where a resignation or termination sees the departing employee end their work immediately. A security guard or similar then escorts the person from the building with personal belongings. If there is a minimum notice period, then that is usually paid out.
In this light, Robert's departure may be explainable, but still there is something about this that makes me a little uncomfortable.
Cheers,
