Beautiful day in the bay - the silt shovelers will be sweating - great excitement in the neighbourhood one dove of the thirty or so that were living in the reserve has returned looking very bedraggled - still no birds singing in the trees -
Kiwimade your cafe experience is so widespread - Robie has 40 vacancies - he is having to bring in 4 bakers and two butchers from overseas - at the moment he is flying butchers in again from Auckland - there are just no kiwi butchers - they breakdown their own meat so he can sell quality meat cheaper so he needs real butchery skills -last week the butcher had broken down the carcasses and the meat was all sitting in the chiller ready to be cut up and put out to sell - he didn’t turn up on Monday - a young bloke had walked in off the street the previous week - he was tidy didn’t spit or swear at the HR lady so was hired immediately - he worked his butt off - the sole of his shoe was flapping so Robie sent the HR lady out to buy him shoes - found out he was living in his car - anyway on the Monday he was wiping out the near empty meat fridges and a lady asked him for steak - Robie was down on the floor so the kid came to him and asked if he could cut up some steak - he had seen them do it on Masterchef and he reckoned it looked real easy -HR lady told him the health and safety requirements and away he went - he spent all day in the butchery - got somebody to show him how to weigh and wrap and cleared the chiller and filled the shop shelves - Robie has had so much drama he was tickled pink seeing a kid blossom - he has got himself a permanent job and help finding accomodation .Robie started out stacking yoghurt when he was at Uni - was going to be a criminologist
My other son had one bloke on Monday go off site to buy smoko and never returned - he was supposedly job ready - went through all the induction procedures to keep all his benefit entitlements intact then told Winz the job was too stressful - he was packaging product .Feel so sorry for business like cafe -it’s hard work and small profit margins and often they have put all their money into setting up the business .There should be zero unemployment that’s for sure
