good to see someone knows how to serve their customers and pack their groceries nicely.

I'd much prefer June to serve me any day over some sullen teenager who can barely mumble a greeting. 5 hours a day on her feet - I can hear all the young people whingeing already.

I'd be surprised if Waiheke Island was the kind of place with rampant youth unemployment anyway.

Not to put a damper on this story - but she's 80 years old and already receiving at least the super, which is not income tested so she's adding to her household income and therefore not exactly poor. But is she taking away the opportunity of gainful employment from a young person by staying on, and we have to pay them the dole? There's something wrong in a weird way about this story.

My wife and I stay on Waiheke for 3 months each year.... this checkout lady is equally one of the best at Woolies.. we are just amazed that she is 80!!!!!! Our best wishes go to her and we look forward to seeing her in January when we will remind her of this video report.
