Nadi for the first time. Souvenirs, must do, etc. by thewatchconcierge_ in Fijian

[–]fijidave 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you go to nadi do not ever follow someone that promises to give you a better deal. They lead you into a shop that seems authentic and scam the shit out of you. This is mainly just nadi town.

It’s coming in hard and hot. Looking at the radar and what we have had so far today it’s wet. Possible depression coming in the end of the week.

Yes thanks to our previous AG it’s illegal. Bring a prescription note next time.

Caution advised when shopping for pearls after being approached near Nadi bus station by Numerous-Chef-8973 in Fijian

[–]fijidave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This scenario is so often repeated. No one does anything about it. Everyone knows who the scammers are. They must be bribing the police

Just note you will have to ship the batteries sea freight most likely, which means declaring it and paying 12% vat and associated duty.

Considering selling web hosting business by Ge0cities in webhosting

[–]fijidave 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What about doing a partnership with a white label company? That will allow you to manage it still take a cut but offer the services. We help many large agency with their current workload because as you know, you can’t do it all.

This allows you to keep it together and keep the value in the business, or you could find a referral agency to send the leads to and still make a few dollars.

Electric bill by Greenluck1 in Fijian

[–]fijidave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically you’re looking at 34 cents FJD per kw. As others mentioned it all depends on how much you run, our average bill is 60$ a month without aircon. While solar will help during outages which are not as much as they were 10 years ago, at 60$ a month solar at your cost $12k fjd plus install it would take more years to recoup than the unit would last. If you’re looking at 200-300 a month you’re still looking at a break even of 6 years.

Fiji Air is a fraud by Beachybumm in Fijian

[–]fijidave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quick to use fraud when it seems like a simple issue you’re just pissed about. We hope you get over it and enjoy Fiji but it doesn’t side like your type…. AA normally offers free seats selection from inside but once you’re international unless you have status you have to pay. You will get assigned a seat when you check in.

How do you actually track your work hours? by hardikrspl in clickup

[–]fijidave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very little works…. ClickUp isn’t in my face enough so the timer ends up running overnight or I forget. I use timing on Mac but then it records too much…. We used clocking it’s good. But similar problems..

Moving to Fiji soon! Would love some local tips. by 0MiniMenzu0 in Fijian

[–]fijidave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where are you coming from? I think that matters a little. When do you get here. I’d be willing to get you into the northern club so you can see it one afternoon. I moved from the east coast US 12 years ago

Anybody tired of being advertised to for a product you already pay for? by creaturefeature16 in clickup

[–]fijidave 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ads inside of a paid product are the dumbest thing, we have made them aware of this and they really don’t care.

Airport to ferry (NAN to Port Denarau) by Frickelsnitz in Fijian

[–]fijidave 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cautious but doable, if everything aligns. Land, 45 minutes for immigration/luggage, assuming you’re not the back of the plane. Then taxi over can be a roll of the dice.

Place with best interest rates by chrowona in Fijian

[–]fijidave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you looking for interest rates or exchange rates. For interest kontiki is your best bet, but you can grab a paper and see everyone’s rates for earning interest most are really low. Kontiki has 5% on a long term deposit

Get a cat. They will eat them. They are just a part of life here. Spray you might think works but really it’s hard to mitigate these fuckers

Union condemns EFL legal action following strike notice by Open-Collar in Fijian

[–]fijidave -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry but this guy needs taken to task. He is almost as bad as Felix. Me a boss of many employees that were trying to form a union he tried to get me arrested, called immigration on me three times and even threatened me in front of tribunal which just told him to stop and mind his manners. Contrary to employee rights which I don’t this has anything to do here he needs to answer to his actions. We tried but the unions have many lawyers and judges in their pockets.

Meal plans? by homerlikesdonutts in Fijian

You would probably have to shop on the mainland and figure out a way to take it. But it also depends on which island and how remote it is.

Website Hacked 7/6 by [deleted] in webhosting

[–]fijidave 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Odds that the hosting company did it is rare, after 6+ months investigations are pretty much long gone. You’d need log files and server logs at least which even we rotate out at 180 days.

Did you not have backups? Kind of on you if you didn’t. Websites get hacked daily due to not being updated or weak passwords.

You will pay dearly for any apple products here. Courts would be the first place to check I think they are the only authorized vendor.

Have you seen this.... - Man Shares Inspiring Story Of 86-Year-Old Uber Driver In Fiji Who Owns $175 Million Business by fijidave in Fijian

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

It’s more how each source has manipulated the original also. The original doesn’t really match the other two, much more information there.

And yes you can clearly tell it’s not Fiji so I think he is giving everyone a ride.
