1164400 2010-12-23 09:06:00 Sigh.....why bother? These rabid bloodsuckers always get their way. That's how the world is, the rich and powerful keep sucking at the working people's neck like there is no tomorrow. qazwsxokmijn (102)
1164401 2010-12-23 20:52:00 Even the lowly MPs receive twice that of most people.:annoyed:

Ever thought that you may be in the wrong job? And you don't even have to work a full year!

So you can see why they don't work full time the same as us mere mortals - not for that sort of money. More than three days would be too much.:waughh:

The amount they would be paid if they worked a full year (perish the thought) does not bear thinking about.

1164404 2010-12-23 22:27:00 Disgusting I say.

I think they should not get a pay rise until

New Zealanders stop leaving New Zealand (therefore they have made it more attractive)

Crime starts going down each year.

And get rid of the free travel lark

The only time they should get free travel is if they need to travel overseas on government business.

And they should stop this free travel for all ex mps's

None of this crap about its in their employment conditions.
Well lots of other workers have lost perks etc.

They get a good super as it is.

1164405 2010-12-23 22:29:00 and there's more to come in the new year for them as well apparently

dirty great big rort this is

they're getting rewarded for not using the travel perk so much

they get paid enough as it is for doing SFA a lot of the time

Yes. Depressing isn't it?
My ex-workplace is going to be all over TV yet again next year. For those reasons. It's all about the money or rather how much the top gets and the hell with the customers.
Or even the staff.
For the work xmas giving I got:
Hassled and a note on my file for not paying my $10 and attending their miserly meal.

Stuff them.
