Shock horror - what was the crime? Operating a sweat shop? Child exploitation? Or lack of proper record keeping and paperwork? Mostly the latter, nothing as serious as the prior but still, a clear indication not all is well in the world of employer/employee relations in Queenstown. It is a common problem here for employers to have to hire countless times a season as the revolving door of transient working holidaymakers, or as the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) call them “migrant workers” come and go. The wages are low, befitting the level of previous experience most “migrant” workers have and the commitment level is also low given the migrating lifestyle of the workforce. Here today and gone tomorrow. Promises are made and promises are broken on both sides of the employment negotiation table. There is however no excuse for not paying a worker, any worker over 16 years of age, the minimum wage at least. One thing everyone should agree on is that a worker having to fight to get the minimum wage is a sad state of affairs for a town like Queenstown which prides itself on being modern, sophisticated and worldly. How can we be worldly and offer quality services when we have such a reliance on young migrant workers only worth the minimum, or in some employers eyes less than the minimum. Sophie Bartholomew, Rachelle Comeau, Dave Gardiner and Alex Wilson at the Lone Star’s 23rd Birthday on Friday (Photo: Jodi Walters) It is part of the deal for some visiting backpackers to pick up any job for any pay and chalk the “exploitation” they experience down to overseas adventure, before starting a much better paid career back in their home countries. For employers the cycle of recruitment and training of inexperienced uncommitted staff results in an unwillingness to value employees. This has to stop. And if that means less job opportunities for working holidaymakers and more invested into long term employees, then the recent toughening up of rules around working holiday visas are a step in the right direction. The consequence of that however is an even greater desperation for those young visitors unable to get work visa extensions who really do need to earn money in New Zealand, which pushes worker rights deeper underground and further from New Zealand employment law standards. There is no easy fix to employment issues here in the Wakatipu. We will always need seasonal short term low value employees to bolster the roster in peak holiday periods. However it takes commitment to an employee, who in turn needs to show commitment to the employer even on a short term contract before appreciation of worth translates to higher wages. That’s the positive result everybody wants. More committed employees, more profitable businesses and higher wages.

W ER INN You Can’t Eat Your Sense Of Entitlement To the minority of people who don’t understand how restaurants and reservations work… When you rock up to a popular local eatery without a reservation, on one of the busiest weekends of the season, you would be wise to prepare yourself for some bad news. Yes, you are correct in observing that there are empty tables. Sadly, they will not be empty for long, having been booked already by legends able to use a phone and/ or the internet. Please believe me when I assure you that local businesses do not get a kick out of turning away customers; nor do we do it for our own entertainment. I understand that perhaps you would prefer not to eat at the bar, but standing and muttering about poor service over a drink will not ingratiate you to the staff, nor will it magic you up a table. Most restaurants book tables in slots of two hours – that means that a table booked for 7pm will be unavailable at 6pm – will you really be able to enjoy your time with us if we allot you an hour to eat a three course meal, or better yet chase you off the table before dessert? Nah, I thought not. Trust us when we urge you to book ahead. Trust that there are processes in place to ensure that things run smoothly, and our guests have the experience they deserve and pay for. Trust that the service industry is not saturated with a bunch of imbeciles who need outside help to discover that a vacant seat could be making them a buck. We’ve got this. We expend a great deal of effort on delivering impeccable customer service. The other side of the coin is that some people deserve it more than others. Hospitality workers are subjected to an awful lot of criticism, and rarely afforded the chance to answer back. I’m only writing this because of your loud comment at the time to the tune of ‘this is why the Lakes has a whinge section.’ Yeah, it is. Thanks for the suggestion. Waiting on Queenstown The Destruction Of Christmas Is Almost Complete I thought I heard it the other day, albeit in a hushed tone, almost a whisper, and delivered in a soft conspiratorial voice -- something that honestly sounded like “Merry Christmas.” But when I asked the speaker to repeat what he said, his face turned pink and apologetic, and the gutless, weak-as-dishwater, politically correct “Happy holidays” formed on his lips as he walked off. Further evidence of the destruction of Christmas and everything it stands for can found in my local New World supermarket at Frankton, where I shop each week and hand over my hard-earned cash as I support that store. There is no sign of Santa, not that I expected such a blasphemous outrage, but surely a “Merry Christmas!” somewhere in the store? But no. Above the vegetables as you go in the door, they have an almost primitive, child-like sign in large white blocks, reminiscent of primary school, saying: “happy holidays” and strange drawings of pixies and dwarves marching up and down above the cabbages and cauliflowers. Happy WHAT holidays, you gutless people? In case you have been living in a hole somewhere or under a rock in the petrified forest in Siberia, we are about to celebrate Christmas. No, don’t fall into shock. Dear Christmas Lover I guess the simple answer is that Santa had an untimely early end to his career in our store. For the last few years the centre piece of our decorations was a large Santa, in a sleigh, with reindeers pulling him along, all suspended in our produce area. The ‘happy holidays’ sign complimented this piece. Don’t react violently towards New Zealand’s main annual celebration. Don’t hate me if I ‘offend’ somebody somewhere in my own country. I don’t want to get taken to court and lose my livelihood because I want to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. Is somebody ‘paying’ you to destroy Christmas? Because wherever we look now you are certain to see the neutered replacement for Christmas, that ‘happy holidays’ -- that gutless, simpering, ‘nice,’ ever so fluffy nonsense given to us by the politically correct controllers of this once proud nation, where our fathers and grandfathers fought to preserve our way of life. We are so naive, aren’t we, folks? We don’t even have the guts to stand up for what we believe in case it offends some bugger somewhere, somebody who hates our way of life and all that we stand for, somebody who has chosen to come HERE and not us THERE, somebody for whom we fall over backwards to please, while full of apologies for even discussing our own culture and way of life. “Merry Christmas to one and all.” Squeaky Shoes Unfortunately, in the process of moving Santa, some key parts were broken and this has meant that Santa is no longer able to be put up in our store. We haven’t found an appropriate replacement yet but we are looking. Our friendly Christmas elves are still smiling at everyone on their arrival in store and we have Christmas decorations about the checkouts.
