Yes NZ has its downs, like many countries. Boy racers are obviously keeping you up all night making you bitter, but there are positives that people would like to read about as well.
I'm not stopping them

Perhaps your time complaining about me complaining could be used better by starting positive threads

There you go mate

Some positive input from me

Default Two cents is no sense................

Evening all

Just my two cents worth.........but in my very limited experience of working in both NZ and Oz IMNSVHO I have found that both countries have a 'can do' work ethic.

The staff appear to take their work very seriously indeed and will go that extra metre to turn a mediocre performance into an extremely good show.

Sad to say but there is also a very ugly face of Capitalism evident (more so in Oz) and exploitation of the workers by several means.

Strangely enough the exploitation is readily accepted by the plebeians.


Errrmmmmmmmmm............that's it, thanks for reading.

Sorry the above sentence upon literal reflection makes little sense.

It should have read:


Strangely enough the exploitation by management and others is readily accepted by the plebeians.


Apologies for any confusion.........

So where do you place yourself in this social structure, plebian or patrician? Are you the the Havelock Vetinari of your workplace?
