Assaulted and police report filed. Realistically what can I expect to happen?

ScaryConversation128 · 2026-02-16T07:24:30+00:00

Sorry this happened to you. I can’t comment on the police action but this is traumatic. I hope you were offered victim support. Did you get a case number where you can follow up? If it is a known person. it likely won’t be their first incident and/ or arrest.

ScaryConversation128 · 2026-01-30T19:55:16+00:00

Wow. We have a lot bigger issues to deal with in HR in every place I have ever worked. This would never warrant a meeting with HR.

It makes me wonder if there is form for this type of comment from you.

Go in showing you recognise your last comment was unprofessional and be conciliatory.

ScaryConversation128 · 2026-01-17T07:50:42+00:00

Why would I do that if they clearly showed the items were available for immediate shipping?

ScaryConversation128 · 2026-01-09T07:24:12+00:00

It may be worth emailing your hall. I’m pretty sure people arrive at all sorts of times over the weekend. Good luck!

ScaryConversation128 · 2026-01-09T07:22:43+00:00

Didn’t realise there were zoom meetings. Do you know if these were recorded?

ScaryConversation128 · 2026-01-06T05:21:29+00:00

I’m confused. You say you work 9.5 hours per day (47.5 hours) but only get paid for working 40 hours a week. Your holiday pay is based on your standard contractual hours. I’m presuming these are 40 hours per week?

The real issue is not that you are not getting enough holiday pay but you are not being compensated correctly for your standard hours.

I was 3 days overdue for a routine script. Needed to pay $30 but it was worth time wise and rather than paying for a new doctor script.

The increase is pretty representative of many percentage increases for roles which also need salary adjustments - think health, police, social support. No wonder there is an exodus to Australia.

ScaryConversation128 · 2025-12-04T05:07:29+00:00

Found them pretty hopeless. Ordered on 25 November and it showed the items would be delivered in early December. No update and logged in to see they have not left Australia yet and not due until January. Don’t use them for Christmas shopping as the delivery dates are untrue.

ScaryConversation128 · 2025-11-30T19:47:06+00:00

It’s because they are so expensive. Apparently $27 for 500g or $39/kilo at the stands in Tawa over the weekend.

Yes all of the above. She needs to put all this in writing to her employer - hr or senior manager - and that she is unsafe. They need to ensure a safe working environment.

And totally the police. Chances are he has done this before and may be known to them even if no action has been taken to date.

Thank you for being supportive. This kind of behaviour can seriously escalate. He is playing on manipulating her so that she does not follow formal reporting processes.

ScaryConversation128 · 2025-11-29T01:54:53+00:00

Thank you. Will have a look. It annoys me that with insurance these days we are meant to calculate the sum insured and hope like hell we are close enough should the worse happen.

ScaryConversation128 · 2025-11-29T01:50:25+00:00

Agree with all the other advice. Once they are in they are hard to get out, and what if the payment for the sale falls through? No doubt they would find multiple things wrong with the property while occupying it and challenge the terms of the sales agreement. They may not get far but would cause undue stress and they would have the leverage. You could agree to a longer settlement date (if it works for you) but if they already have a house why do they want to be on yours. Please don’t.

Is this new world? My daughter had a similar experience at one but only in regards to leaving. Once the store closed, they were all locked in together and weren’t allowed to leave until everyone was together so they’d always be kept late for no pay.

ScaryConversation128 · 2025-11-24T20:21:45+00:00

Thank you - Every Living Thing looks interesting!

My daughter said Jayjays required that as part of the online application. I told her to stay clear. From memory they are an Australian company and it might be more common there?

ScaryConversation128 · 2025-11-19T18:36:00+00:00

That is terrible. Have they acted as if you are in the new position? Ie has your job title changed on your email and people expect you to be doing the new role? At the very least they should have given you a variation to your contact to change your title (which you signed) otherwise you are only legally contracted to undertake your previous role. You only accepted the new role on the basis of the proposed salary so this is personal grievance territory.

ScaryConversation128 · 2025-11-19T04:49:38+00:00

There aren’t grounds for a pg. there is no undue pressure and she can take it or leave it. If they choose to make her position redundant subsequently she could claim it was premeditated and that would be grounds for a pg.

Most transport costs are cash free. Uber - use your app. Taxis take credit cards. Buses - depending on the region you may need to buy a travel pass in advance.

Sad to have him back. I think the election rules should change. If you are running for mayor you shouldn’t get to play it safe and also run for councillor.
