job requirements
 
just seen a job posted and one of the requirements is:

"Will sometime be in store by them self
Must have good hygiene"

seriously does that need to be stated in this day and age?

I suspect it's a lack of translation or different cultural standards. Looks like it's written by someone who does not have English as a first language.

I agree. It sounds like it is written by someone that comes from a place that I don't understand so the words are likely to have a different meaning to what I might expect.

I wouldn't read too much into it without further investigation.

Emploment rate is very low. If you want to employ someone at minimum wage you'll probaby be dredging the bottom of the barrel.

Little productivity or wage growth yet however which suggests employment habits are slow to change.

Was stood behind a guy in the lottery queue at New World, Orewa on Wednesday evening. He needed a damn, good scrub. His hair was filthy and he stank to high heaven :sick:
