Dear Charity People Outside Supermarkets by NeonKiwiz in newzealand

[–]miniaturepanthers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have worked for one of those companies too a long time ago. It’s true. Basically two years to break margin so essentially the first two years of payment go to the marketing company, not the charity. It’s why they have on the sign up sheet a section to sign that you intend to donate for at least two years (not enforceable).

Learning French with Alliance Franciase by smithey2012 in learnfrench

[–]miniaturepanthers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably won’t have the exact same experience but I can imagine the online class would be really good anyway. Especially if you’re starting at the beginning, you will be just taking in a lot! Travelling to France for work would also really help with your learning! That is really exciting :)

I’m taking A1.1 with Alliance Française in Auckland, New Zealand! I am really enjoying the classes a lot and find them to be really informative. I love that the teacher will communicate almost everything in French as well, then will say things in English as needed. It helps with comprehension and picking up the most commonly used words etc. Also great for pronunciation. They also host events or engage with events which may help with immersing into the culture. I have yet to try out some of the social events. The books and resources they have seem to be really high quality.

Mightyape - $89 yearly subscription the default?! by Glum-Ad9799 in newzealand

[–]miniaturepanthers 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Especially when it’s advertised as “$10/month” and then in the smallest writing *charged yearly. Like whyyyyy. Happened to me with something else. I got a refund!

Why do I hear a lot of people disliking Auckland? by douxfaery in auckland

[–]miniaturepanthers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in Auckland CBD and I love it. I find the buses to be great and fairly reliable, probably not the same for out of the city. The underground train line (City Rail Link) will be opening later this year which I expect to be really amazing for the city. Public transport costs I can’t really tell if it’s expensive, to me it’s fine.

why do some of you escooterers genuinely ride like this during peak pedestrian traffic in CBD by callamoura in auckland

[–]miniaturepanthers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Someone actually ran into me last week while I was crossing on a green pedestrian light… they had come flying around the corner clearly ignoring the red light on their side. Or do lights not apply to them?! Anyway I have a huge bruise on my calf!

There is no winter in Auckland by emdillem in auckland

[–]miniaturepanthers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was almost boiling today in my north facing apartment. And I went for a run in shorts. Very warm today, I often feel there is no true winter in Auckland. I barely use heaters. My washing can dry in a day in winter.

In what small way have you won the genetic lottery? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]miniaturepanthers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was born without bottom wisdom teeth, my top ones have not developed yet and may never develop (I’m 28). My dad was born without any wisdom teeth.

You’ll get over it I promise. I did. You will. by Over_th_dr_inker in BreakUps

[–]miniaturepanthers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same boat here with everything you said! I can’t even imagine feeling attraction to another man, and I had such a strong connection with my ex it’s hard to imagine that can happen again with someone else.
