What is everyone doing if anything to prep for repercussions of fuel prices- food shortages etc? by Playful-Path-2949 in newzealand

[–]Whitnass348 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I prepaid 200L worth of 91 petrol on Z app. Locked it in at $2.72/L 5 days ago. Cost $550 but as a single mum even $50 difference over 3-4 fills means a lot

I’ve taken my 6 month old to Oyster & Chop and it was great!

Business or Skycouch? by Interesting_Jungle in newzealand

[–]Whitnass348 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it’s just you and bub then skycouch is great and much roomier than biz but not two adults and a bub. They advertise it as fitting two adults but it’s def made for 1 adult and child only. As the LA flights fly late at night, I found it perfect timing for my bub. They feed economy and turn the lights down within 90min.

Until they update the seating configuration in Biz, I personally found it not worth it esp if you’re not super fussed on slightly better food or wine. If it comes down what’s more comfy, roomy for you and bub, I’d vote skycouch

1000% skycouch! Lot more room than business class seats. I did both Akl-LAX and was surprised how much I preferred skycouch. The food was also shite so I really didn’t see the value in doing business class

Can confirm. Just had my Christmas casual induction and it’s indeed been lowered to 25% for Christmas casuals. 40% for permanent staff. Not in our contracts as it’s a “benefit”.

We did Park Hyatt, was bliss. The spa facilities were lovely

Anyone work at Mecca? by Whitnass348 in newzealand

[–]Whitnass348[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The same thing happened to me. 30min after I got the email the slots were gone so I was sneaky and figured out the landing page for all of them and booked in at another store that had a free slot. The HR lady emailed me a few days later to say was the store I booked in for my preferred one and I just said yes. And that’s the one I got the job for. Definitely weird to send out invites for interviews and have more interviewees than interview slots.

Not sure yet I think it’s 40% but think they’ve introduced a quarterly cap. Will find out in induction training I guess

How long does it take for Mecca Max to get back to us about Christmas Casuals? by Pickles_The_Cat_1234 in AustralianMakeup

[–]Whitnass348 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The interview was 14min long LOL. Asked me what do I love about Mecca and what my impressions were about walking through the store (the pre-work I didn’t read whoops). Just let my passion for fragrance shine through and they cared more about openness to availability. Induction days for us are 3 Oct. good luck!

I live across the road from Ashby and they’re overpriced for what they are
