A woman says she was left shaken and humiliated after her lifejacket was pulled off by a staff member at a water park in Auckland, but the company says the holding of jacket was just to ensure her safety. The woman, who did not want to be named, went to Waterworld water park in Browns Bay on 6 January with her 6-year-old daughter. "Based on my life experience, I thought I have the right to use the life jacket for the hour because they wouldn't refund me. "There appears to be some dispute, some confusion about the rule, but the staff member should have approached this in a much more professional manner. If he was concerned she was taking the life jacket, he should have called the police," she said.
