People realising that main-stream media is unreliable. The alt news guys I follow have called this out for nearly 3 months so we're in a good spot. Hoping this changes the media landscape and truth gets back to the fore-font of what they should be doing.

@Hooroo I’m now working from home and if this continues through to clock change, golf will go through the roof!
Naturally there will also be a upswing in births come November (Putting a different stress on facilities)

It's actually a great chance to really look at how we do our work as well as when and where. I know many of us have be trying this and slowly transitioning for some time but this could be a much more forced changed and actually can be very productive (even though I am here posting on the fern).
Oh yeah and more time for golfing, fishing and mountain biking.

Yeah, it's going to really test the "work from home" idea which has been tabled as a partial solution to traffic and emissions. Even if working from home 2 days a week becomes the norm for people in jobs where that is possible, that will make a big impact.
It is also forcing many companies to consider investing in the technology to enable this for the majority of their staff - it's a great BCP plan as opposed to trying to have alternative sites for people to work out of.

I'd love to get the provincial rugby thing humming again. If no super rugby then get the all blacks back in to club rugby and then out for the provinces. Could be an exciting competition even if we have to watch it from the couch.
Oh dammit! You've just reminded me of one I left out of the first post.
This could kill off super rugby a bit and inject a whole lot of life into the NPC. Imagine full or near full NPC games because people have missed rugby so much! Even I could get back into that. Auckland v Canterbury at Eden park with 50,000 people as there were no AB tests etc! That would be wicked!!
Drive it Waikato!!!

This will be the litmus test on whether or not NZRU do genuinely care about the NPC or not.
It really is a massive opportunity.

@No-Quarter apparently 88% of my company can work from home, 6% said they cant, 6% said they didnt know...
I heard one NZ organisation with ~1800 employees advised all staff yesterday to work from home indefinitely.
I am off on schol camp tomorrow...

School camp would be canceled wouldn’t it?
Ours was canned earlier due to other factors but we recently signed up our oldest to a camp in the school holidays. That must be in serious doubt now

Guess if schools are still open it won’t change
Ours has stopped with school assembly in the mean time.same.

@Virgil not yet...the surf part has been moved to another beach with the tail of that cyclone making waves too big...
@Hooroo IAG, think @WillieTheWaiter still works there...not sure how many of them can work form home, but they have asked all to do so.

Ours is meant to be in 6 weeks. They should seriously think about pulling the pin now
