@BernardKeane Great to see many cafes opening, but penalty rates hurt capacity to open and give work hours on Sundays and public holidays. -
@ACCIBizVoice@BernardKeane Nonsense-increased business on weekends more than offsets-I own a small business & am happy 2pay staff extra. -
@martinrev21@bjakd@ACCIBizVoice@BernardKeane next the ACCI will want staff to pay to work... coz business can't afford them otherwise -
@pceebee23@martinrev21@ACCIBizVoice@BernardKeane I'd say they want to change to the American way.. pay $3 an hour and staff rely on tips. -
@bjakd@martinrev21@ACCIBizVoice@BernardKeane and worse we have a govt that supports poverty for all .. their idea of equity -
@pceebee23@bjakd@ACCIBizVoice@BernardKeane There are bigger issues at stake here than just employer profits- we are a society!

@BernardKeane@timmellor@ACCIBizVoice ..public who cannot gain other employment..so they take the chance running their own.. -
@Colin_J_Potts@BernardKeane@ACCIBizVoice Maybe so But I'm sorry this whole penalty rate Hoo Haa is just total BS -
@Colin_J_Potts@BernardKeane@ACCIBizVoice If businesses are that impacted by penalty rates then they have a seriously flawed business model -
@timmellor@BernardKeane@ACCIBizVoice ..Four shops closed in my mall since Xmas..why..goodness knows..mixture of everything maybe.. -
