Yes they do rate right up there in the king of fuckwit stakes for sure but this is not about Panuku, which is a maori term that must mean 'trust us and we'll still fuck you over just for fun'.
Driving up the Northern motorway at around 3:30 this arvo and in the lane next tome was a ute branded up 'AT', Auckland Transport, and under that in big bold colourful lettering was 'Dive safe, everyone deserves to get home tonite' an admirable sentiment for sure.
The ute was being driven by a dude who had a man bun but that's OK.
What wasn't though was the dumbarse fuckwit had paperwork on the steering wheel and he was writing shit on it while in an intense looking discussion either with himself or on the phone, all while driving down the motorway in a vehicle covered in road safety messages.
I was going to video dipshit but the idea of committing murder by ute is not appealing to me, even if it was what AT dipshit was certainly trying to do.
Unbelievable.

I could almost guarantee that wasn't a direct AT employee but one of their contractors. All Council and CCO contractors now have to ditch their own company branding and brand their vehicles in AT, Watercare or who ever. The reason I think it is a contractor and not a direct employee is because the contractors are the only ones that do any work. As in the ones that are so strung out busy they have to shove a broom up their arse so they can sweep the floor as they go. Massive cost pressure, KPI's up the wazzoo, cultural impact assessments, ecology training, five different traffic management plans, and still actually get the day-job done. But that said, that is a shocker. If you could have got any identifying numbers off the ute (as in a number plate) I'm sure heads would roll. And fast. Video not required, not even photos. Management, more so contractor management, would take that sort of thing very seriously. Infact, even without any identifying numbers, you should probably still phone that in. I would expect a report of that nature from a member of the public would ring alarm bells and almost definitely result in a safety alert being issued, which is a straight forward way of telling everyone in branded vehicles they are being watched. |

But normally the actual company's name is still marked on the vehicle's side doors in small print
