| 1243965 | 2011-11-19 05:17:00 | Don't export the jobs to China. We already have exported most of them. "We the New Zealand consumers (and the buyers) bought Chinese stuff when it started coming in, despite please from Buy NZ and the unions and Jim Anderton etc to buy NZ Made" So now we have very few factories left. In the USA whole towns and cities have been "hollowed out". Which ones do you think we can or should bring back ? |

| 1243967 | 2011-11-20 08:05:00 | I just took a minimum wage job, food on the table, and It will keep me out of the house. Long hours, hard work, zero job certainty. Awesome. right, so they declined due to my ACC history Then the father-in-law waded in ( he works at the company), applied some pressure, pulled in some favours and they reversed their position. so, Its a 6am start, a 6.30pm finish, and don't expect a lunch break, they eat on the run. Wait...what? Hard work, minimum wage, 12 hour days, no breaks? uh.........no. I wouldn't last a day. So, I lied, via txt, as to why I wouldn't be able to make my start. And now my name is mud. awesome. |

| 1243968 | 2011-11-20 08:38:00 | :lol: Congratulations Metla. Thats the biggest load of hogwash youve ever written. :thumbs: Well done. Nah! You just won the "maximum hogwash effect while using minimum words" award. Metla is dead right. Higher education teaches you to think; you learn to understand and also to write intelligible english, you can express yourself verbally, and can communicate effectively. Arts degrees do not just produce artists, they produce thinkers and 'doers'. Higher (or any formal) education trains your mind, and regardless of what you then do with the certificate or degree you earned, you are a far more useful and versatile member of the workforce. The introduction of education for the masses freed humans from servility (go look it up) and I challenge you to produce a cogent argument to the contrary. Don't hurry, I'll wait. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

People have said a great deal of things about Uncle Winnie... corrupt, evil, poopstirer... Idiot certainly isn't one of them. If you want a good example of an educated idiot, your best candidate would be Don Brash. www.youtube.com |

| 1243972 | 2011-11-20 20:34:00 | Hard work, minimum wage, 12 hour days, no breaks? Why don't you go back to IT, safer if nothing else, and at least there's breaks...........Pay is better than minimum too. |
