Welcome to Wellington, New Zealand! Whether you're living here, moving here or are just curious, feel free to browse around and ask questions.
A sequel to my post! This time it's a private company pulling a job.
I know this is a bit of a shitpost. It just seems that a massively reduced public service will kill a lot of private businesses in Wellington as well. My barber just told me business was down 40% on last year, for example.
So people like me will be forced to sell up and leave, and the housing market will drop (seems good tbh), but the next few years could be pain for a lot of people that aren't public servants. We have large infrastructure bills due, and people fleeing Welly ain't gonna help with that.
Or maybe I'm just being dramatic, idk
