Well, you can always tell an engineer, but you can’t tell them much.

Lobsterpillar posted:Almost certainly, given that he became a property developer afterwards, and it looks like he went into management rather than maintaining any technical skills. Uugggghhhhhhhhh it's like lovely boss bingo And since he seems to be trying to rule by fear and can't handle people who he can't tell to shut the gently caress up, I'd say we are on a winner

this is the email i just sent his council address Mayor Wayne Brown, I didn't vote for you because I didn't think you were up to the job. Your performance the last few days has confirmed my original opinion of you. Four are dead now, so I am imploring you to pull your head out of your rear end, stop focussing on who leaked your disgraceful text messages, and start leading. If you don't want to lead, get out of the way. Yours,

He's got chronic 'smartest guy in the room' syndrome. When all the mayoral candidates were offered a tour of the CRL project he didn't go and demanded a private briefing so he could ask more questions with his superior engineering brain. What a twat.

No. Maybe a little bad that our level of civics education lead to someone thinking getting elected mayor makes you King of Auckland. Edit, just saw the spinoff article Spinoff posted:Under-fire Auckland mayor Wayne Brown has doubled (tripled?) down on his criticism of the media, accusing reporters of ignoring the work he has done in the wake of last week’s floods. I bet he has lots of friends. Spyderizer fucked around with this message at 01:16 on Feb 1, 2023 |

It's not just Auckland and it's not like one vote per house, but yeah you get to vote in any area in which you pay rates. It's still bullshit and should be scrapped in favour of a single electoral roll like for general elections.
