Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

    That does sound ripe for abuse. Probably opens up other opportunities for other sectors to start to classify people as contractors as well

      I’m curious how long it will be until every minimum wage job is hiring “contractors” as standard, so they don’t have to give them annual leave or sick pay or KiwiSaver.
