The Apprentice New Zealand

[Tank]

I love the apprentice. and I can see why a lot of very successful people would take a drop in wages to work for Donald Trump (love or loath him - the guys a legend in NY).

But - I just know that the Apprentice NZ is just going to be a disaster. We are going to take a show and do the entire thing on a budget of $6.

It needed to be lead by someone like Graeme Heart (not that he would even consider doing it) - then perhaps you would get top of the line people fighting to learn off the master.

Not a pack of drongo's fighting over a good but not fantastic salary (and Im betting its only for 12 months)

Must see viewing Im sure - but only for the cringe factor.

Fun - but couldnt make a series with him in it. None would last more than 10 mins.

These guys maybe? Hopefully?

[Tank]

nope. But in fairness a) I think Soccer is a girls game and b) I have no interest in his business - hes sucessful (a lot more than me) - but a lot less than a lot of people who would be far better at this than he is.

I'd just like to get close enough to mess up Trump's hair.

bitch

watched it last night.

Teams did a sausage sizzle. yawn.

Loved the 'package' of $200k - for a one year contract - including the value of the apartment for 12 months and the lease cost of the BMW (sponsors) car. So cash = $100k.

Top young business minds of NZ are earning more than that anyways.

Still - one of the girls had great tits.

Yeah I cracked up at that.....their big challenge was to do a sausage sizzle!!

We spend tens of thousands recruiting from NZ and overseas to get our staff (high level of specific skillset required).

Think of the money we can save by just heading outside the Warehouse on a Saturday morning and just grabbing the chick pumping out the most sausages.

I had to laugh at the context of the whole thing last night.
all he said was "team with most money wins"
I would have sold the bbq, and sent the team off to work for the day - easily bank a couple of grand. Competition won.
But then again this is "reality tv"
