Two road workers' efforts to kill time on the job have sparked a fierce debate online after video of their antics was shared to Facebook.
The clip, filmed near Waihī, shows two road workers engaged in a game of flipping the road cones through the air to try and land them on the base.
The man who filmed the clip wasn't impressed, not by their failed attempts to land the throws, but by what he saw as their lacklustre work ethic.
"This is what our tax money pays for, it pays for these guys to chuck cones around," he said.
"They've been standing there for three hours now, chucking that cone back and forth, flat out these fellas."
