    Common sense is not all that common.

    Almost anyone here if holed up at any of the Uni's for 10 years could have walked away with a list of
    Tickets & an equally impressive Loan balance the length of their arm .. but most here are more sensible
    & probably had far better & more productive things to do with their 10 years ...

    This is good illustration of exactly what the Labor Beehive Simpletons have failed to comprehend..

    This is a well established business -- imagine what is happening to other less well resourced SME's
    The article appears to be "factually challenged". Last year The Warehouse Group paid about $43 million a month in wages. How can they be $192 million a month short? If the monthly wage shortfall is correct it means the wage bill has skyrocketed to $244 million a month or $20,000 a month per employee. Clearly I should have been a checkout chick at The Warehouse if that is the monthly pay.

    No more challenged than the cast of Beehive idiots who devised Selective Defective Wage Subsidies scheme in the first place which seems to have hit only part of the mark in places, overhit in others resulting in large smiles, and completely missed the mark elsewhere, but with glaring inherent large gaps that the whole of Govt's whole Transport Arm could navigate unnoticed .. while they missed & completely ignored the bigger picture ..

    Perhaps you could enlighten us in the perfect package you would have come up with in a week, or share five countries that have done it better.
