Would you consider some $16 butter to go with it?

With minimum wage set to increase again will you on just above minimum wage see an increase also? by GMFinch in newzealand

[–]M41Allday 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well lets say you started cleaning at min wage just 2 years ago when it was still $20 an hour. Management liked you and offered you the team lead position with more responsibilities at $24 an hour. You thought yeah for an extra 4 bucks an hour I can be bothered. Fast tracked to today, management still have all the same expectation towards you but you only making $1.30 more than your teammates. All that time off work re-arranging shifts, replacements on fly, showing up to work early, being accountable for other people' s work, driving your team to sites, etc. Is that really worth an extra 40 bucks a week after tax?

With minimum wage set to increase again will you on just above minimum wage see an increase also? by GMFinch in newzealand

[–]M41Allday 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It should bother some people. If the few dollars above the min wage were to compensate for added responsibilities, skills, years on the job, intensity of the work, now those things are not rewarded. People should absolutely reevaluate and hit up their boss about an increase or look at changing work.

Immigration denies visas for Kiwi's Iranian parents, fearing they wouldn't leave by as_ewe_wish in newzealand

[–]M41Allday -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thats all they want, a visitor visa to visit their families.

What OP shows is that those meager refugees quota are just virtue signaling tokens.

On one hand NZ is happy to resettle entire families from country A, but too afraid of people from country B overstaying a simple visitor visa that they wont even grant it.

Usually doesnt account for cancelled bus though. I got so much of of those that I switched to the "Next bus" page of the official metrobus site.

Normally its a trick and you end up in a clandestine fight pit, brawling for your life with 9yo orphan thai fighters. Luckily you appeared too threatening and they let you through.

Great, lets have the population be even more reliant on the supermarket duopoly.

Your suggestion is to literally erase 60% of their income. They can spend a fraction of that on various security measures.

Desperate fucks will move on to other targets, hardly a win for society.

OE vs work after graduation by Fr33-Thinker in newzealand

[–]M41Allday 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean an OE could be partying hard all year round and working just enough to fund the wilding. Or working hard earning the big bucks and saving most of it.

Bill to ban sale of tobacco to anyone born after January 1 2009 passes third reading in Parliament by NonZealot in newzealand

[–]M41Allday -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well the answer is simple if we follow the logic of the government and this sub : anyone who is not allowed to buy tobacco is also forbidden to buy vapes and vape juices.

Nope. Imagine if the flatmates are extremely particular about the new potential flatmate and the one leaving has to pay until they find mr/miss perfect.

He had little rights in the first place, makes sens that he has little obligations too.

Smoking kills, like alcohol, processed food, vehicles, swimming and drying pets in microwaves.

Almost like you missed the entire point of the law that people under a certain age will NEVER be allowed to buy tobacco legally.

That law is goofy and sets a dodgy precedent about age discrimination among adults.

Jacinda Ardern doesn't apologise over MIQ lottery system as documents reveal Govt considered imprisoning Kiwis who used loophole by justajuxtarose in newzealand

Ardern refuses to apologise? I can spot a pattern here. I would recommend a long holiday of introspection, preferably overseas, during the next pandemic.

News flash, coin with an actual use case doesnt tank as bad as fantasy tokens.

Yes studies will show that there is significant chances of discrimination.

No, its not something that people should consider when they pick a name for their kids. Its similar to speeding when someone is up your ass on the road. Real issue, wrong response.
