About Matt

I have been supporting Thunderbird users for what some days feels like forever. The merger of SUMOMO and SUMO brought me here in 2012.

I am an Aussie and like most of my countrymen I have little interest in beating around the bush. The following quote might enlighten some to the cultural realities of dealing with Aussies.

As a Brit, who has spent many years living in the US, workplaces to me were often places where people tried to avoid confrontation; skating around awkward conversations and hiding behind emails. Then I came to Australia, and everyone was so direct. It was at first refreshing and absolutely terrifying in equal measure. Candid to the core, Australians get straight to the point and I love them for it. — Kit Young, head of photography at Vinomofo
