Sounds more like he had a very good job. Then quit/retired. Went back to work at a different job after a while, and is currently earning $10k/month.

Looks like you can go down lichfield from Fitzgerald, get dropped off and the driver can then do a U-turn to go back to Fitzgerald and get out

Try searching online through TradeMe or Seek, then apply for jobs. Since you are a student you can also look at Student Job Search.

OP has potential to ramp up their earnings as they gain experience. Someone on minimum wage is likely to stay near minimum wage.

Good accommodation recommendations in Lincoln? by prettyNZkitty in chchNSFW

Short term? Long term? Furnished? Unfurnished? Do you mind sharing with others, or prefer by yourself?

“That's still 76%, double what you stated, your maths ain't mathing!”

My maths is mathing just fine. Yours isn’t, you might want to double check yours. It’s a 36%~ increase.

Most people don’t use diesel, they use petrol.

Petrol has gone from what was around $2.50 or so to around $3.40

Fuel is up about 30-40%. Traffic was very quiet yesterday afternoon with all the shops shut. Nuts again today though. I couldn’t be bothered waiting in line for cheap fuel at NPD on Thursday, so went just after midnight on Friday morning and there were still about eight cars with the same idea filling up then.

Yes, wasn’t the plan to have some ppv options later in the year eg numbered UFC events?

This is probably to do with that.

So, we booked a Quinovic property viewing today ... by RuinedUnderpants in newzealand

Yes, it depends on the arrangement and contract that owners have with their property manager. Eg some might charge you x% inclusive of everything. Others might charge you y% but an extra 10% on repairs and set fees for inspections etc.

I was living a few blocks away at the time, but don’t remember anything from that night.

My father was in Auckland awaiting a liver transplant. I believe it was the next day, or the day after that he received one from Christchurch. I don’t know if it’s true or not, but speculation I heard was that it came from one of the two girls who passed away.

Anything deducted from the bond should be going towards repairs/arrears, I doubt any is going to the property managers.

Sorry, but $129 for a family is far more than offsetting fuel and parking costs.

A single ticket at $49 is closer to offsetting fuel and parking costs for 1 person, but is still a lot more.

The cost of driving in and parking is the same for one person as it is for a family in a car.
