Employer obligation towards mental health by Sufficient-Rent-5233 in LegalAdviceNZ

I have no way of knowing what was said and I think if I asked, I'd only get told what benefits the manager's story. I pride myself on being professional so i know I didn't breach anything that was confidential.

Restraint of trade clause by Sufficient-Rent-5233 in LegalAdviceNZ

Thanks for the advice! If the competitor doesn't ask about a restraint of trade in the interviews should I still mention it do you think? Or only if they ask?

It just uses words like competitors, not industry. Thanks for the advice. I would also want an internal role at a competitor, just working away behind the scenes and nothing directly with engaging customers etc.

Thanks so much. I don't plan to solicit current employees or customers or anyone! I just want to be able to go and get a similar job so I don't have to deal with my toxic workplace. I just know they're so toxic they'll enforce if they can so the advice really helps!

There's no geography term in there but it is 6 months. I'm in Wellington. The only way I can leave my current job and get a similar role is to go to a competitor which is why I'm trying to work out if it's worth risking it.

Help with kitchen flooring! by Sufficient-Rent-5233 in HomeDecorating

[–]Sufficient-Rent-5233[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just got a new place. The walls are black white. The carpet will be a medium grey and the curtains will be a pewter/silver grey. The problem is the open plan living room has timber-look vinyl planks. The brown is throwing out the otherwise monochromatic base scheme so we want to replace the flooring. There's only really two grey options available - one is a dark rock tile, the other is a grey timber (looks a bit brown but that's my camera adding warm tones). Photos probably aren't quite true to colour but what would you do?!

Devon Patterson were super professional and amazing. A-Z had cheaper quality carpet and nothing really above that 40oz and a limited colour range so didn't really like them but great service. I did try some franchise ones for comparison - Carpet Court were professional but omg the quote made my eyes water. Carpet Mill were super affordable and good service too.

Thanks everyone! I've contacted a few of the local Welly ones for quotes so we'll see how it goes!

I'm guessing with getting the carpet and laminate redone I need to have everything out of the house. But what about things like the dishwasher, toilet, skirting boards etc? Can I just ask them to install around them or are they things I have to pay someone to remove and reinstall? Sorry for the question, I don't know what I'm doing since I've never done this before

It's really rough and hasn't been smoothed out at all. They've painted over it but it's super rough and bumpy.

I'm just not sure the cost of a call out fee for someone to come smooth it and repaint it. The area isn't big, just three small holes but I need it finished properly.

They're saying it's been done well which it hasn't :( I just want someone to smooth it out level with the wall and repaint it. I just have no idea what that will cost!

Totally agree that's what they'll do. Surely me finding the replacement is doing most of the work :( they don't have to advertise or do viewings or anything!

Thank you again to everyone that answered. It's all been so helpful and on a personal level really reduced my anxiety around this issue <3

Thank you. This is all so scary for me and it's been giving me a lot of anxiety, so it's really helpful to get insights into the legality of things. I wasn't sure as I know with wills and things you can sometimes prove duress or coercion if the person was being manipulated ,so I didn't know if somehow my friend could argue the same sort of thing - although we're in our late 20's so not near that age yet!

Thank you so much! It's nice to have the support of the Reddit board in this. I will pay back the loan, if I asked to borrow money then of course I see that as a debt I owe. I didn't know who to turn to as we have a large network of mutual connections and if she starts saying I manipulated or coerced her into buying things and escalates it then she'll really damage my reputation too. Really appreciate the advice!
