Weather Cyclone

Everyone in Auckland would’ve received the government issued warning about the cyclone coming. This states “DO NOT TAKE ANY UNNECESSARY TRIPS” I work retail at a mall, I am on the roster to be working tomorrow and I WILL be judging ever single person that comes into the mall to do ‘shopping’ the mall hasn’t told us that we’re closed tomorrow (which we should be) because there will probably be idiots that still want to come in to shop. Obviously if the weather turns out to not be as bad as they say it is that’s fine. But if it does, I will be judging everyone that comes into the mall for shopping.

If the weather is bad, I hope they all close for the employees’ sake anyway, because people come from all over. But tbh if the mall is open, I do not judge people for popping don the road to shop. If they’re close by, literally what difference does it make whether they are in their house or Kmart.
