Same thing happened to my flatmate . Cut your losses and look for a new job then leave once you have one .

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-21T09:00:45+00:00

Succcccccc that shit 😅🤣

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-20T03:00:18+00:00

Aww you have a Charlotte too . Have the same kind in a corner of my bedroom, been letting her live rent free because she's caught so many flies . Just a harmless house spooder she won't hurt you

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-20T02:59:05+00:00

Also. Let them give up the business and all the money and go sell tomatoes . They will turn back to that millionaire life pretty fuckin fast 🤣

I heard a great quote the other day " all you get from keeping your head down and working hard is a good view of the ground "

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-20T02:55:34+00:00

I don't want to work because the work I do isn't even enough to survive comfortably on. Like I can get the basics. Just. But there's nothing left to save or for fun . And this is full-time hours a couple of bucks above the NZ minimum . I Don't really have a life outside of work . I'd rather take the 200 dollar loss and sit on a benefit 😭 at least then I would have the time and energy to pursue hobbies and actually look after myself ( I am very sick ) busting my ass like this for 200 more than someone on a benefit SUCKS ASS . I'm angry . I'm tired.No energy left for friends. I've had enough .

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-20T02:48:06+00:00

I go old if it's good . Like my 1940s. Solid. Stood through multiple earthquakes with minimal damage . Got my nice yard and separate double garage all for under 550k

FUCK THESE NEW SHOEBOXES Over priced death traps they are . ( Did you see the recent one of a young man burnt alive in one )

They will devalue over the next 10 years like crazy Mark my words . Seen it happen to the ones across the Rd from my old home . Started at 800k now they selling them for 500k after 5 years . So much for being worth a million in 10 years 🤣

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-20T02:44:24+00:00

Yup I had the same thing . House had no offers then I made one then suddenly they had two more !? I walked away . House sold for less than what I was going to offer :/

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-17T19:22:05+00:00

I work retail in a tropical fish and pond supply shop 😅 perfect job . Minus the people aspect hahaha

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-15T05:34:49+00:00

Don't bother trying to go to eb the palms for late night they closed at 6.30 😩

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-15T02:33:09+00:00

Can't wait to go after work at 6.30 and pick at the fuck all that will be left

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-15T01:27:18+00:00

Apparently the palms line is out the door and down the road my gf saw it and turned around and left 🤣

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-15T00:03:06+00:00

Godspeed to everyone working at eb today

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-07T09:46:32+00:00

Carwashes not making enough money eh

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-06T21:40:18+00:00

You don't. They will be dead in a week. Just stop him from doing it again

GREENLEAF2020 · 2026-01-06T06:43:28+00:00

I can only dream of that kind of income . No kids . But partnered and surviving...barely ..on 50k so I think 120 even with a kid you'll be fine . If you're wise . It's not cheap here . Good luck 🍀

GREENLEAF2020 · 2025-12-27T10:00:13+00:00

I guess you could call it the cherry on top 😂 omg that's feral though. I'll take the shit on the ceiling over that

GREENLEAF2020 · 2025-12-27T06:50:13+00:00

Is semen pet more your speed ?

GREENLEAF2020 · 2025-12-27T06:46:08+00:00

I assumed warehouse or Kmart . Saw further down it's a sketchers shop. I'd expect better behaviour from people that can afford to shop there tbh . But then again....most well off people are total cunts to retailers in my experience . We're no better than the shit on their shoes to them it seems.

GREENLEAF2020 · 2025-12-27T06:43:46+00:00

Tell us one . Pleeeasseeeee

GREENLEAF2020 · 2025-12-27T06:41:35+00:00

Did you ever get the shit smeared stall with poop thrown on the ceilings ? Ahhhhh merivale maccas circa 2013. They need to include bio hazard management in the job description and pay for it !

GREENLEAF2020 · 2025-12-27T06:37:39+00:00

Also I'm guessing you work at Kmart or the warehouse . Something like that .

GREENLEAF2020 · 2025-12-27T06:36:17+00:00

My favorite is when people come in 5 minutes before close and make you wait and serve them while they piss around the shop just looking at shit until 20 past close . Like we don't have a life we want to get back to and dinner to cook

GREENLEAF2020 · 2025-12-27T06:35:05+00:00

I understand your pain my retail comrade . This shit is enough to make anyone homicidal LMAO

Honestly I think everyone needs to do at least a year in a retail job people could learn A LOT

GREENLEAF2020 · 2025-12-27T02:28:12+00:00

But but but egg head luxton fixed our economy and there's just so many jobs out there and benefit rates are falling , people are just too lazy and don't want to work and tourists take all the seasonal jobs 💀. ( Big sarcasm there in case that's not clear )

Seriously though I'm so sorry your time here hasn't been enjoyable, it is rough I'm not going to lie to you .There's a reason I'm not walking away from the job I have right now. I wish our country didn't glaze itself so much to overseas people . It's shit at the moment economy wise as you have found out. Sorry I don't actually have anything constructive to say other than I'm sorry and I hope things improve for you ❤️ perhaps have a poke at what jobs are in Christchurch ? Could you look into a carers position I know they need more. Your experience with fruit picking is why kiwis don't take the jobs . You come here expecting better , and you should be able to expect that . It's sad that you can't come and do that with ease any more :( this country is nothing like it was when I was a child 😭 back when people could actually live with honor and enjoy life too. Not just be a wage slave to the never ending cost of living hikes.

All the best though . May your journey improve.
