I take issue with the article’s assertion that it’s a “sneaky payrise” as if it’s somehow dishonest.
I’ve done this before after accumulating several years worth of leave due to a previous employer having strange ideas about project management and the mythical man-month.
I suppose I was kind of pressured into it, but I also liked having a pseudo-bonus that year.
Do you access from work where your work might have an IP-identified work subscription?
It seems The Post is a Stuff site deliberately split off so it can be paywalled regional content (along with a couple of others): https://thespinoff.co.nz/media/29-04-2023/inside-stuffs-bold-unconventional-new-paywall-plan
Weird! I’m using Fennec (a fork of Firefox for Android) and I get a paywall every time! I wonder if they have some criteria or maybe something in my stack is triggering it (I have everything from uBlock to Tracker Control to PiHole blocking stuff 😆).
Interestingly, on desktop (Firefox) I’m not getting the paywall! But desktop mode on mobile does paywall me, but mobile mode on desktop doesn’t. I don’t know what their criteria are 😮💨
