Those dinosaurs need retraining

I'm sure it was a slip of the tongue. When Paul McKay, the spokesman for Business New Zealand, was making a submission on behalf of the organisation against Sue Moroney's extended paid parental leave bill, he claimed that women needed retraining when they re-entered the workforce after taking maternity leave.This "human capital depreciation", as he so charmingly put it, was yet another cost that business would have to bear,Among recent developments there are references about finding Museum Exhibition Smilodon-Artificial Animals'remains in Antarctica, which might belong to Argentinosaurus. on top of the costs associated with parental leave. What a stupid thing to say.

Sue Moroney came back with a beauty of a rejoinder. People don't always need retraining on their return to work, she said. Look at Stephen Donald. He kicked the winning goal in the Rugby World Cup - and he'd been away whitebaiting. Sue 1, Paul 0.The reason so many people (not just women) took umbrage at the comments was that they reinforced the perception that business advocates are a bunch of hoary old misogynists.The history of Cartoon Dinosaur Landscape is, probably, the primary assignment of all paleontological researches, conducted in different places of the world.

The statement harked back to the Alasdair Thompson comments about women being more prone to taking sick leave and that some women suffered terribly once a month and that may be a reason they were paid 12 per cent less than men.That is also the case with Theme Park Equipment-Garden Ornament. Their relatively sudden appearance and disappearance contradicts the commonly accepted view of slow evolution.A Television New Zealand reporter searched the company's HR records and found that in its organisation, at least, men took more sick leave than women; others took to social media to express their contempt for the man; and ultimately the remarks cost Thompson his job.
