    i tend to to stick to a select group of suppliers, even if the cost is more as the service is usually above what the low cost option is. Same applies to my customers, I try and go out of my way to fix their problems. However you can’t please everyone all of the time.

    skilled NZders are in sort supply (as are new imports with the right attitude)

    most people want a nice warm couchy job.

    i would only trust a few.....
    I don't think so. I see a lot of talented people, some making a lot of jewgold, across all strata of society.

    Yes, there is a large chunk of the population that are feckless, again, some making lots of jewgolds, across all strata of society.
    Even those "gainfully employed" (office workers, for instance (insert link about company time lost daily to facebook and internet shit))

    I've met a few ingenious imports (legal or otherwise) who are a benefit to their position, and often the bodgy shit they learn in the back alleys of buttfuckistan are applicable, or better than the OSH aproved method. but equally could round up a few locals could do as good-a job, just need to be motivated to do so.
    Which given the cushy (expected) standard of living here, usually means more than a sausage on bread once a year, and employers (ultimately consmers) aren't willing to pay, when they can get their shit shipped from fleabay from the comfort of 3-days-old-undies-on-the-couch-eating-doritos.

    i propose a retroactive ban on immigrants. from about 1900. vote akzle.

    I'd say that's probably worth a claim.

    Unobservant....the hospital will have filed an ACC claim to recover expenses. Even if you'd claimed to have gnawed the hand off yourself...You're on record now with that claim - which will be just as well if it turns gangrenous and falls off....

    As for outsourcing labour, yep, we're on a slippery slope...Bet that at least some of the docs you saw were not NZ born too.

    In spite of every obstacle the NZMA and ASMS could put in their path.

    Although to be fair they've managed to prevent enough immigrant docs working here to offset the NZ trained docs working off shore.

    errrr. so?

    if they were competent and best suited to the position, who really cares where they were born? people don't get to choose that kinda thing y'know...

    and i frequently hear tell of dentistry, opthamology, oncology, ornithology, fishing etc in india (and other "3rd world" places) being cheaper and better than here. so... who's really winning?

    Fucken hell. The rant of every thinly vieled racist that doesn't expect personal responsibility from anyone.

    In the example you give, the person doesn't seem to be at fault in any way. But you still decide to somehow blame the government in your whinge.

    I do honky... the gvt should look after NZ and NZers... ie if a NZ owned company wants to operate in NZ then it should HAVE to employ NZers brown. black, white or yellow... fuck even ginger, and NOT be allowd to send its work over seas to slave labour then sent back to line their and their pockets only...

    every bloody one... again GVT, NZ trained Docs have to go over seas to earn enough to pay off the loan they incured while others come here just to be happy they have a job... how fucked is that...

    Well I wish I could afford that move.
    i have thought long and hard about doing that exact same thing to get away.
    cant find a job that I can do that with.
    enjoy the lifestyle you have created. Remember you can always sell, but location, location, location.

    use ACC if that’s suitable. You are conscientious? I have the same in the past, back to work, no sick leave etc. well I don’t think I have ever taken a sick day yet.

    dont blame gubbermint.
    we need more practical studies in schools......
    get them more confident and able to stand by themselves or at least have some chance at bettering themselves.
