Typical narcissus, it's all about them.  He's paying me for 3 days off this week...my holidays and I have too many banked up, too much money he'd have to fork out if I left.  Why should I have to take holidays when it's shitty weather like this ?
Anyway, I don't care, but he and other moaners love to see how unfair life is to them.
well instead of moaning about your boss why dont you start a business , laugh all the way to the bank like the other "moaners"

I'm not moaning about him, just saying he's moaning about others...as in the last line you quoted. Been there, done that with a business - yeah, it's tough paying a days pay with no money coming in for that day. But that's part of being in business.

While this is being considered & Australia has decided to give their people the day off on the day pf the national memorial service, this is not a good idea in NZ according to ACT, because it 'will be too expensive for small businesses to cope with.'
One day, just the one day rather than an annual holiday & you'd think people were storming the bastille again! 
The Nats are in favour however, which is interesting given Luxon's desire to end Labour day.

I'm pretty sure Piggy would have loved to restore National Airways.  Privatised of course . . . .

I wouldn't be at all surprised had he done so.
