I have no wisdom for this situation. It sucks. But man, the audacity of National to simultaneously insist that “everyone who can work should work” while also endorsing and encouraging an economic system that requires people to get fired to lower interest rates (which isn’t even NECESSARY!) is the biggest load of bollocks ever. I could rant about it for hours. It’s hypocritical and cruel. ARRRGGHHHH. Head explode.

To everyone who lost their job recently: it is NOT your fault. You will find another. Dont let this situation lead to losing faith in yourself. You are far, far more than your job title. ❤️

Yes! I have been in a rage about this latest round of fuckery and you articulate it so well - and they encourage an economic system that just benefits them and their mates. Arohamai to all those doing it tough right now ❤️

On a tangent from volunteering - local charities like City Missions do more than just food, they often coordinate between donors & recipients of rehomed homegoods. We just passed on a washing machine this way. And if they don't have a thing you need, they often have the network to ask. ❤️
