AUCKLAND LIBRARIES DUMBING DOWN ITS STANDARDS.

Linda from Henderson

The powers that be who run Auckland Libraries have decided that there will be no more fines EVER for not bothering to return a book or twenty books, CDs, everything on offer.
They are not talking about the books you cannot return during pesky lockdown, but into the future.

The powers that be who run Auckland Libraries have decided that there will be no more fines EVER for not bothering to return a book or twenty books, CDs, everything on offer.
They are not talking about the books you cannot return during pesky lockdown, but into the future.
This decision just promotes irresponsibilty, and non accountability.
We all know the long suffering ratepayers will be the ones who end up indirectly paying for all these missing books, some of which are very expensive.
Who gives these people the power to make such shocking decisions.
NZ is fast becoming a "nothing of quality is valued anymore" country.
In modern idiom "Woke". SAD!

To all of the wonderful people down at the Henderson Vaccination Centre and all the rest nationwide, from the meeters and greeters, the admin staff, the vaccinators, the staff at the end and let's not forget the wonderful people on the Covid Hotline - 💗THANK YOU💗
For the hours you all put in, for the patience you have for all quirks and queries from us all, for all of the different languages you have come up against, for EVERYTHING you do and have done to make our time getting vaccinated such a stress free and reasonably pleasant experience.
Of course thanks should always go to everyone on the front line, but today all of the vaccination team ABSOLUTELY ROCKED!!!
From the people in the 'appointment' line when they should've been in the 'walk in' line, when people turned up not wearing a mask right to the elderly couple who wanted to carry on in their car to a carpark of their choice and almost taking you out - even though everyone was shouting and waving at them to try and stop them and let's not forget the black and yellow bar they were determined to drive through; you all took in your stride with a smile on your face (albeit hidden by your masks).
Your professionalism and genuine compassion as well as friendliness was most welcomed and noticed.
💐💗Thank you all so very much💗💐

"Everyone PLEASE be careful because people are going crazy from being locked down at home!
I was just talking about this with the microwave and the toaster while drinking my coffee, and we all agreed that things are getting bad.

I didn’t mention any of this to the washing machine, because she puts a different spin on EVERYTHING!! Certainly couldn’t share with the fridge, cause he’s been acting cold and distant!

In the end, the iron straightened me out! She said the situation isn’t all that pressing and all the wrinkles will soon get ironed out!

The vacuum, however, was very unsympathetic…told me to just suck it up buttercup! But the fan was VERY optimistic and gave me hope that it will all blow over soon!

The toilet looked a bit flushed but didn’t say anything when I asked its opinion, but the front door said I was becoming unhinged and the doorknob told me to get a grip!! You can just about guess what the curtains told me: they told me to “pull myself together!”☺️

We will survive 💝"
