Usual veneer opinion for you.
Let's try a little deeper.
"Morrison had a curious work history before entering parliament. He held a variety of short-term positions within the Liberal Party and short-term contracts within the tourism industry. In 1998, he became head of NZ’s newly formed Office of Tourism and Sport. In 2006, he was appointed managing director of Tourism Australia."
...
"On 17 November 2018, Middleton notes, ‘The 1999 report by NZ’s controller and auditor-general examined the December 1998 resignations of two heads of the NZ Tourism Board, as well as payouts to them, that were later found to be unlawful. The report criticised Morrison’s role in the lead-up to these events.’
‘Scott Morrison left NZ’s Office of Tourism and Sport, a year after the audit report was published and a year before the end of his contract. The reasons for his early departure have never been fully explained.’
Annika Smethurst describes Morrison’s Tourism Australia (TA) job: ‘Following a three-month hunt, Morrison was offered the Tourism Australia $320,000-a-year role as managing director of the federally funded body – reporting to the TA board chairman (and former Deputy Prime Minister) Tim Fischer and to the new Minister for Small Business and Tourism, Fran Bailey.’
From the start, ‘TA Board Chairman, Tim Fischer, and his Deputy Chairman, Tony Clark, met Fran Bailey for lunch… those familiar with the meeting say the pair came to Canberra for one reason only: to warn her about Morrison, who was already proving difficult to handle.’"
...
"‘In February 2006, after spending millions of dollars on market research, Tourism Australia unveiled its big new advertising campaign, which asked the world: “So Where The Bloody Hell Are You?”. But within weeks of its release, the campaign hit a major roadblock…’
Karen Middleton reports that this ‘period was the subject of a scathing 2008 Australian National Audit Office report that disclosed what preceded the then Tourism Minister Fran Bailey’s decision to sack Morrison, backed by then Prime Minister John Howard and his department.’"

Yup. Reeking in competence wasn't he.
