NZ Post Call Centre -hopeless
Just hung up after being on hold for 16 minutes . Why do they think people have so much time to wait for someone to answer ? I called just after they opened at 8am. How can you have" higher than normal call volumes" 5 minutes after you open. I guess one way to not have to employ more staff is just not answer and people will hang up eventually.Grrrrrr

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
