What is a food truck 🚚 (for those they may not know)? A food truck is a roaming quality restaurant on wheels. Most food trucks are run by trained chefs passionate about delivering delicious food and menu options that may not be seen in the area. Their culinary skills are more remarkable due to the size of their kitchens and time pressures they may be under. These food trucks help liven up Auckland, giving it colour and character. Te Atatu Food Truck Fridays brings you an ever-changing selection of Auckland's best food trucks and a great atmosphere. They run monthly every first Friday of summer daylight savings months.

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!
