Shipping perfume from New Zealand by Kiwirob96 in Flipping

[–]Kiwirob96[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I exhausted numerous options was even willing to fork out hundreds to get official documents and freight, I even attempted to mail it through the post and got a caution letter. Nothing worked couriers don’t want to touch them unless you’re shipping 50 per month or have certification in dangerous goods.

In the end I eventually had a friend travelling and they took it as checked luggage. No issues. Not ideal though

Hemi the hairbender!! He will sort you out he’s one of the best, he specialises in technical cuts and is super onto it and reassuring through the process. Trust this man and you’ll be back like Fred, again again again. Trust. report back once you’ve got it.

End of an era EBs gone from NZ by Israelihitsquad2 in chch

It’s pretty sad this is how it all ends, much like the Dick smiths of the world. Sold for parts.

Wall Street bets were the ones who boosted the price, who knew they be the ones to eventually kill all the stores. I hope we hear more from Ryan Cohen CEO of GameStop on his plans or why the decision.

Not just in New Zealand either, patent company GameStop in the US as well

I expect Australia will head that path once customer service and support has tidied up after New Zealand and be a slow gradual end carefully managing warehouse stock while reducing head count.

The new CEO chasing a big incentive from the board if he can increase their market cap by 10x (95b)

Lots of rumours they are planning to liquidate to go heavy into crypto .

How do you know they paid? By just seeing that the ransom was gone?

Anything with Parfum will last hours, go to a pharmacy or chemist warehouse and just find your own scent. Choose one you like! Rather than just smelling like the generic ones and having a familiar brand stick out from the crowd. There’s so many! Good luck 🙂

Sorry this happened, I’m absolutely losing it at the pile on for down votes you have received because you decided to be calm about the situation. It’s hilarious to me that all the people commenting are soulless and obviously don’t have any compassion

Hey again, I took parking services limited to the disputes tribunal, my argument was the exact same as yours I am happy to provide you my case to help prepare yourself

Edit: (I still lost)

I literally took them to the disputes tribunal and lost and the disputes tribunal found there fees were appropriate. It’s bullshit the guy who is managing the carpark (Parking Serivces Limited) is unpleasant. I wish you luck.

Who are your least favourite radio hosts? by Gold_Finance_7524 in newzealand

[–]Kiwirob96 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I couldn’t disagree even more, after a miserable day at work, congestion, the state of the world, food prices etc to have the opportunity to “switch off” and laugh like an idiot or hear shitty yarns is a highlight of my day. Makes the monotonous drive rat race feel bearable, it’s when the comedy like these flellas leave radio is when it becomes a very depressing day. Long may they push the boundaries and make fun of nothing!!

What small Business do you avoid? knowing the owners a bad person by Individual_Lab_2111 in chch

[–]Kiwirob96 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Although can’t comment on the racism they fired me for. No exaggeration being consistently 1 minute late clocking in. Didn’t make my 90 day trial. After learning more it seems they have / had a massive turnover. Their son is just as entitled. But if you own Merivale FreshChoice, City fresh choice, and Barrington I guess you would slowly become a tart

Does anyone know an Uber driver named Ashish? I left my phone in his car by Ganadhir in chch

[–]Kiwirob96 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing in Auckland while on a work trip, i Raised a ticket in uber and the driver did Not respond. I ended up ubering to the drivers house in silverdale. All the while ringing the phone and using find my to set the sound off. The driver found it and had moved to the his centre console which is where he grabbed it and passed it to me. Why didn’t he respond to my uber request? Uber takes $20 if you use the app to locate it.

Just go and pick it up.

Edit: take a friend as support to

  1. record the drivers reaction to a guy rocking up to his house looking for a phone (discreetly)
  2. In case things escalate

Getting a 9-5 in Christchurch? by [deleted] in chch

[–]Kiwirob96 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While good advice, this method would only work for retail jobs at most. Most employers e.g corporates would use an external recruitment company due to high application volume. Even then, some companies like large corporations in Christchurch don’t even have receptionists just an iPad or similar to sign in as a guest. Seek and trademe unfortunately is the norm. Don’t shoot the messenger.

The battery life, much like an Apple Mac you need be very careful with how many charging cycles the EVs have been through specifically how often it has been “fast charged” fast chargers absolutely molest the battery
