For every article like this, there is another article saying how hard it gets for retail workers stuck with no work during a lock down. What do they want exactly? Their situation is no different to any other essential business that continues on with life.
Bet there are loads of other retail workers made to stay at home who would be happy to go pick and pack in a room of 4-5 people and continue getting a wage.
Edit to add: Being notified after 9pm is a direct result of this governments obsession with announcements after 5pm. Our essential business had staff waiting until 6:30pm in order to know what was happening so we could plan accordingly. Time to start doing lockdown announcements at 4pm.

Well there wasn't the bargain at the WHS I was looking for today.
No surprise. So much cash on the sidelines waiting for this event. Too much.
Also, who exactly would panic sell? It's not like we haven't been here before.
So just to clarify the bonus was for all permanent staff. If you usually work 20 hours or more they received $1000 and everyone else got $500. I cant see any media article's reporting on it though only lockdown controversy...
With Z getting a formal takeover offer today - WHS must be in the mix to replace it as a NZX50 constituent?
any arguments for/against inclusion now that foodstuffs has sold down it’s stake?
Yes, very good point ! (Also waiting for the Swedish owners of MET to try and takeover OCA)
Ecclesiastes 11:2: “Divide your portion to seven, or even to eight, for you do not know what misfortune may occur on the earth.”

is there enough in it for them... raiders of opportunity by past history... farmers and sailors.
They going raiding for gold within easy reach.. OCA doesnt look like it got much loot sitting on the alter within easy reach yet. Net assets ratio's of the NZ population and percentage increase in retirement contracts would be where they are looking for gold. If they have already raided the easy gold, it's a big world.
