Eating kiwi beef ribs in an Argentinian restaurant on Cuba street Wellington, proceeded by drinking a Spainish beer, washed down with a glass of Italian wine. All while being served by a Vietnamese waitress.

By the time I checked into my hotel and headed out for dinner it was 9pm local time. The first 2 places I walked into said sorry kitchen closed. Cuba street in the city is pretty funky... loads if restaurants to choose from. The place has a good feel about it. When it's not blowing a gale the Wellington harbour is spectacularly beautiful. My only other tip is fly in on Air NZ at least the local pilots know the place it can get a bit hairy coming in to land and the plane is sideways!

Cheers CM, keep the tips coming* as they come to hand.*

No local pilots for me, I'm flying Qantas.

Wellington is the pick of the NZ cities I visit. I really like it here. Only here for 1 day then off to Napier, my first trip there to see a few new customers. Then down to Christchurch on Friday, which is still a building site after the earthquakes. You will enjoy Welly tho!

People who try to pass the buck when they've done something wrong.

Someone here constantly does things late, and when it's an issue, blames it on other people not having done their job.

Her new thing is to tell me I haven't entered things yet, which she needs to be able to do her part. The funny part is, our system keeps a detailed audit trail of time, date, employee names of everything entered. So it's really simple for me to put her in her place. She still tries it though. Idiot.

This may sound rude, but i tend not to believe people that continually think everyone around them is terrible at their job but they arent - and yet do nothing about it.

Why not move jobs? Or if you are that good why arent you running the place?

HH3 manages the office (among many other tasks) and he doesn't own the place, he's not the hiring / firing person and the bloke who is couldn't give a shit as long as he's making money which he obviously is.

Keep up people, FFS.

I'm constantly working things out to make them better. But you can't change peoples personalities. Most of it isn't worth throwing someones life into turmoil by sacking them.
