Fletcher Building redundancies announcement must be the first of quite a few I'd have thought.
Air NZ announced another round, this time it's the cabin crew (pilots have had theirs).
On the plus side, pubs are open today.

That sort of person pisses me off.
What a piston wristed gibbon. Has obviously been reading far too many 'They're taking our Freedoms!' posts on Facebook.
She stayed pretty calm.
I'm giving businesses a bit of latitude at the moment. It is obvious when you go out at the moment that some stores are either misreading the rules......"Retail stores do not need to record details of their customers. You must still keep records of your employees and any visitors, such as maintenance workers or suppliers. You should keep customers 2 metres apart at all times, where practical." or are playing it safe if they think they aren't solely a retail outlet (e.g. with an attached workshop)
I had actually been to an Animates the other day and thought they didn't need to take my details but it was my choice to either go in or not. I just thought they will work it out soon
Fucks me off when people think they have some kind of 'right' to enter a private business -
@Crucial I went into a store yesterday (predominantly a trade store, but anyone can purchase goods there)
I had to sign in when I arrived, as it was a cash/eftpos sale, they then took my details at the till, and then I signed out when I left.
Made my visit a minute or so longer, but I battled on after.
Also visited the library, only allowing people to pick up books requested online (and drop off books)

@Crucial I only watched the first 30 seconds. What a total piston wristed gibbon. Clearly went in with an agenda.
If it had been me the first time he asked if they wanted his business I'd have said no and escorted him from the premises. Oxygen thief.

A haircut yesterday. Well, clippers, but I wouldn't trust a family member to do it. I had to sign in and out as this is home-based business.
i got one yesterday as well, i feel like a new man

It is amazing how feral you can get over six or so weeks. I had to book at the barbers for the first time ever. Now my ears, neck and face are freezing without the Chewbacca look I was cultivating.

According to my sons my beard got greyer over lockdown.
Considering it's usually ginga I guess this is an improvement of sorts.

Saw this pop up on crackbook. Not so taken with racism/injustice circle - but we know certain groups are over-represented in data on poor health and lack of access to services. I think you could swap that out for concern about our medical systems (and embedded policy etc) to cope with a pandemic.
But I dig the message that there are multiple elements to this shit-show of a pandemic.

The mission I had was getting rid of 2 months of beard growth. I usually have some facial hair as I am too lazy to shave regularly but even my clippers gave up this time.
BTW, the old fella getting his hair cut before me had a decent mullet going. I was impressed.
