It was fully applied over a 3 year span I think at the time ( 40 years ago, lol). Lurking. Ps. glad to be receiving Rob's super. lurks.	Lurking (218)

(actually it turned out rather long...:p ) How can those that are not or have not lived through what the chch people have lived through, how can they have a comment....... and to try and dictate to what should be happening down there when you, me and the rest of NZ do not live there, and have not lived the earthquake crisis....... we have not been affected at all, we still have showers, lawns to mow, jobs to go to, and probably a far more perfect house and lifestyle than most chch have had for a long time... How can you sit back and say........ they suck... it seems to me the rich are still getting richer and the normal joe blogs of the city are still being ignored...	beetle (243)

They certainly do apply at lower levels - but usually you get a better deal when you first sign up, you inevitably seem to lose ground if you stay with one employer too long. Good managers in competitive areas like IT, pay their staff well and look after them, otherwise they lose them to someone who will.	Twelvevolts (5457)

1256276	2012-01-29 21:05:00	If by Rob you mean Muldoon, he did more harm than good, by far. Yes I know Ci, think big, etc. But he gave the super @60, not that I was amongst those. Christchurch is not communist by this link: www.stuff.co.nz Me thinks they are waiting for the east side to sink in the mire, then they will take land in the west under the Public Works Act, but at going Market Value, rofl.

1256278	2012-02-01 18:32:00	Good to see Mike Hosking getting stuck into the "small town navel-gazing" protest in Christchurch yesterday that was "whining about $68 grand". These protestors should get on and do something positive for their city, if they don't like democracy tough sh*t. Good to see Nick Smith staying out of it as well.	Twelvevolts (5457)

Why not have a FIXED SALARY 3 year contract ?? no bounus's, no pay rises. What does the same job pay in Aus, UK ?? how can you really justify any bonus , he's doing his job, exactly what hes paid to do.. Did he start working 80 hours a week ?? Is CHCH now running at a profit ?? Is he that special that he simply couldnt be replaced ?? Isnt all he's doing,is just overseeing the tier of managers below him ??	1101 (13337)
