    Then how would I find out whatever all these people are doing if you’re not helpfully posting them in this thread for me? 😏

    I used Facebook more this month than in the past few years as my mate decided to post all the information about his wedding (I was a groomsman) on Facebook. 😠 I clearly need better friends.

    I guess he's wondering, like the rest of us, how you "stumbled across" that one.

    Regarded as being quite shit to work for and not paying particularly well probably has something to with the delays . When everyone is busy you get the dregs if you don’t look after the people that work for you .
    Speaking of which my mate did a ton of work for these clowns and they tried to screw him out of extras he did for them. Insinuated that he had padded the hours out and would only pay a fraction, when he asked to see the security logs on the gate that record who comes and goes , the times and the who is in the vehicle they grudgingly paid up .

    This article brings me joy .

    And the fact that former teammates were so quick to say "well done mate bet you feel better now" as if they suspected it all along.

    still in shock that the Herald have put up a motherfucking paywall hahahaha. Would've loved to be a fly on the wall at their frantic titanician meetings...
    alt text
    "We have to. We're fucking desperate. Put the fucking paywall up and rebrand as 'world class premium content' or some bullshit. Yeah, we'll still have the same garbage stories about lost cats in Timaru etc. It's fucking financial desperation. No one's been paid since November. We are fucked, the whole industry of 'journalism' is fucken dying worldwide, there's no point to our stupid little business enterprise at all any more when people can just go to facebook or twitter to get their news. For fucks sake, that's what we do here anyway, lug over some tweet, tart it up a bit, publish it as 'news'. Yes, it takes an unmitigated gall to even call it news let alone start charging people fucking money for it but we've just got to bank on grannies, thick fluffybunnies and lowest common denominators pulling us through here. I am SURE that after we put this paywall up people won't just immediately click off over to stuff.co.nz to get exactly the same fucken stories anyway. Sure of it. Yeah. This'll work."

    Hahahahaha I had a look a few hours back and they had teasers for articles, you get half way through and they ask you to pay for the rest.
    So I deleted the herald from my phone, I've still got stuff and the guardian to moan about so I won't miss it.

    There is nothing that isn't utterly hilarious about the whole thing really
