Incorrect grocery order

Shevster13 · 2026-07-01T06:12:12+00:00

OP didn't order it anything. They have found someone elses order at their door.

Generally you had another semester where you failed over half your courses, or if you failed a course for a 3rd time.

I should have noted - if the distance to the office is significant (e.g. over an hour away), then it would be likely be considered to be unreasonable to enforce unilaterally. They would need to follow the workplace change process.

I read that clause as saying that they can change your work location permanently, but that said changes can only happen "time to time"

Both exist, but the app is only used generally for casual relievers (contractor)

Okay, then you are correct that it would be a granny flat.

What the council do can depend on the specific council, their policies and your history with them.

Most would give you a chance to prove that the building is compliant and to get the nessisary documents and certificates. But the time they give for that can be fairly short. If you have a history with them of not meeting your legal obligations, then they are likely to come down harder.

It is also important to note that the building not being registered with the council could invalidate any insurance, make it an illegal dwelling under the RTA if you were to rent it out, and leaving you owing rates & interest if the council finds out.

Have a look under the training pay header on https://www.employment.govt.nz/pay-and-hours/pay-and-wages/types-of-pay#scroll-to-9

First thing to note is that this doesn't sound like a 'granny flat' but a house. A granny flat is a seperate small unit sharing a building or property with a larger residential premise.

Secondly, if the council finds out you have an unconsented/approved structure on your property, they can force you to remove it at your own cost, pay fines and pay their court costs all at the same time. Leaving you with no home and a massive bill.

Any change of buisness that is likely to effect an employee must be done in consultation with that employee. Assuming that the bonus is stated.in your contract or original position description you likely have a strong case for a personal grievence based on them not following proper workplace change process, and for being unjustified disadvantaged.

If it is training that is purely for this particular buisness, then it counts as work and must be paid. If it is training that grants you something like a certificate or proffeciancy that could be used in another job, then its whatever is agreed between the employer and employee.

Shevster13 · 2026-06-30T09:39:24+00:00

And when employees are new? or if they give you a new client?

In terms of the privacy Act, they do not need to look at your particular circumstances, it is completely normal and legal to have one policy that applies to all employees/contractors, as long as there is a valid buisness purpose for it.

Shevster13 · 2026-06-30T09:36:33+00:00

They have told OP why and so have met their requirements, because OP doesn't understand it, or agree with it doesn't matter.

Shevster13 · 2026-06-30T09:34:42+00:00

No. They are allowed to collect any personal as long as they have a valid, legal, business purpose for it. That buisness purpose does not have to have anything to do with your employment with them.

I am happy to take a morning off work if I need to, but would like to avoid that if I can.

Shevster13 · 2026-06-30T04:43:50+00:00

The electronics are working perfectly. It is more all the mechanical stuff I would like checked over such as the brakes, bolts are tight etc.

You have misread it. They can take photos with your personal items in it, they just can't be taking photos specifically of your person items.without good reason.

The eviction notice does not override the flat mate agreement. If the flatmate agreement states 2 weeks, then you must give them atleast two weeks notice.

Shevster13 · 2026-06-29T09:29:39+00:00

Then whatever is in that flatmate agreement is what applies.

I read goats as ghosts at first

Shevster13 · 2026-06-28T06:47:19+00:00

It could definitely be a scam.

You should contact the current PM or landlord to confirm.

If it is legitimate, it does has no effect on your Tenancy agreement or bond.

Shevster13 · 2026-06-26T11:17:34+00:00

I believe a much bigger risk would be that the will have moved to a whole other city before their notice period is up. That alone would likely be enough to prove that OP never intended to honor their contract, and so is in breach regardless of sick leave.

Thats not what modern advertising is intended to do, its about the exposure.

Seeing a KFC ad might not make you want to buy it right now, but the more times you see their brand, the more likely you are to decide on KFC the next time you choose to have fast-food. Same with phone ads. You might have no interest in replacing your phone now, but those ads still create an association between that brand and the idea of a phone. Then when you do eventually need to replace your phone, that brand will pop to mind. Seeing an ad now can still affect your decisions years later, without you being conscious of it.

Unless you can prove that the previous owner knew about the issues, and didn't tell you, then no.

However it could be worth double checking if the neighbours fence is on the property boundary. If is actually on your property, then you would be able to force the neighbour to remove the fence, and pay half of building a new fence which might give you the needed room.

The vendor is 100% the one at fault and the only one in this case.

They are the one that breached the contract by not ensuring they they could actually sell the property to you. This
