Leeann from Roslyn - Terrace End

I am so mad at the level of callousness demonstrated by Bunnings that I am going to boycott their store here in Palmerston North. They are bad corporate citizens who do not care about their New Zealand staff. They would have been planning these closures for many many months, and there is no excuse for the short notice period. I hope more people boycott their stores and email them to let them know New Zealanders won't stand for this poor treatment of our people.
