LOVELY NEW sling bag/slouch bag I just made a few days ago and hadn't gotten around to photographing until now!!!!! =D

Sharon from Te Atatu South

It is a very nice faux suede-feel fabric and is nice and roomy inside with a VERY long zip, as the ends go up in a crescent shape. The main body of the bag is 48cm long x 31cm deep in the middle. 104.5cm long webbing strap, and the rises at the ends of the bag are about 10cm long. They are to lengthen the straps, since the webbing would have been too short otherwise. I am taking this bag and my other bags to the Blockhouse Bay market tomorrow if it's not too rainy. =D Come and see me and grab yourselves a bargain!!!!! =D The weather forecast says showers in the afternoon, but we'll see. =D

What workplace change would you like to see most?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This coming Monday is Labour Day in New Zealand. This public holiday marks when the eight-hour workday and 48-hour workweek became law in 1899. The idea started with Samuel Parnell, a carpenter in Wellington, who in 1840 refused to work more than eight hours a day. Since skilled workers were in short supply, his employer had to agree.

As more skilled workers arrived, employers tried to change working conditions, but Parnell and others kept pushing for better rights. In 1890, Parnell led a Labour Day parade of 1,500 people to promote the eight-hour day. He passed away shortly after, and nine years later, Labour Day became an official public holiday.

Do you feel that we have reached the ideal in working environments yet? What rights are you passionate about relating to employment? Share your thoughts!
