Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

100% agree with your colleague here, work considerations end as soon as my personal time starts.

ACC are running their "have a hmmm" campaign which originally about "if something bad happens, here are all the things in my life which will be negatively effected" and it was a decent campaign.

Now the messaging has changed to "Hey if you hurt yourself, your workmates might have to work extra shifts" which is a decent consideration but seems really tone deaf without all the other life impacts. Like "Hey if you hurt yourself, you are hurting the company you work for" and tbh idgaf about the company I work for outside our contractual agreements.

I might be overthinking it but this new angle has really put me off their messaging, and I'm not even someone who actually likes my job.
