Planning on having some drinks after work on Friday?

Sarah Reporter from Stuff

Hi Aucklanders,

'Tis the season for beers or bubbles in the sun after work, and we have some good news for you if you're planning to be out and about this Friday!

In a bid to curb drunk driving, all buses and trains around the city will be free from 4pm. So eat, drink and be merry - and know you won't have to pay to get home. Happy Christmas indeed! To read more, click here.

Does free public transport encourage you to leave your car at home? Should Auckland Transport look to do this more often?

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟

While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.

We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
