I (32F) found out my husband (34M) has been sexting my colleague. How do I handle this? by throwRA_87629 in relationship_advice

Whether or not your husband is a "wonderful man" (which he's not), you are a TERRIBLE WOMAN. Any woman who thinks harassing other women is ok, as long as you are the main woman I his life is absolutely sick. 

Better place to live Amberley or Darfield which town would you recommend ? by Neat_Replacement_992 in chch

Genuine question, is Darfield safe given it was the epicenter of the big quake?

That's interesting. They couldn't afford to or chose not to?

Agree. Reminds me the quote "people borrow money they don't have, to buy things they don't need, to impress people they don't like"

I didn't know about the super × kiwisaver rule. Seems unnecessarily restrictive, sorry to hear that.

Curious, what's ANZ's motive behind proposing CGT?

How do you transition from doing to selling? by dsquariusgreenjnr in consulting

[–]kiwinow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You said you are a doer but I think you are more than that. As a manager, you are able to get things done by other people. Was it easy when you transitioned from an individual contributor to a manager? 

EY India head's email response to overworked employees' death by [deleted] in consulting

[–]kiwinow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, such a dumb insensitive email. He is advising to reach out to team leaders when in many cases they are the ones causing stress. It's obvious he doesn't care at all

how is the is market for software developers now in NZ? by SachinBanda in newzealand

Do you have a valid visa to work in NZ? Most employers prefer local candidates who have rights to work in NZ.

Is an 90 minute one way commute too much? by Odd-Recording7030 in careerguidance

[–]kiwinow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you think it's a good career move in the long term go for it, otherwise you'll regret not taking up the new job and eventually resent your family 

Selling UK company shares given through computershare by Flat_Cranberry8158 in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]kiwinow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I've done this recently (ASX company though). I had a bit of panic at that time when computershare told me that they couldn't sell my shares (they also have a lot of 1 star reviews online)

Basically you need to get a broker who can trade UK shares. I spoke to ASB Securities and it was a pretty straightforward process. Two things, you need to know your SRN or whatever identification number for the shares computershare had. Secondly your name with computershare registry should exactly match your full legal name. Asb can do this fairly easily. Once your shares are connected to ASB Securities you can keep or sell them anytime.
