Excuse me while I vent.

Firstly it is a not a strike, it's a lockout (basically NZ Bus has told the workers not come in unless they meet with their conditions).

Secondly, could they please, please get it sorted? I'm having to take my car into the city which

a) adds to the congestion
b) is bad for the enviroment.

Also I hate spending 20 minutes trying to find a carpark when I could take a bus which literally drops me at my door.

Grrr

I reckon.
It's ridiculous really, they need to get their A into G and get it sorted. Finding a carpark in town is hard at the best of times, plus expensive.

Yeah mine cost $7 today, the same as my bus fare but that doesn't factor in the petrol I use sitting in a traffic jam!

You can get parking in town for $7?! Tell me, where is this mythical place? I usually end up paying at least $12...

Actually there's $5 12 hour parking in Auckland. Turn left at the corner of Welselly West and Sale Street. Les Mills has the first few parks at the front but the rest of it is for us plebs.
