So may've got one of 178 00:08:15,613 --> 00:08:18,533 Speaker 4: those texts saying that you've got a delivery that we 179 00:08:18,573 --> 00:08:21,093 Speaker 4: didn't manage to get. Yeah, but this was about four 180 00:08:21,173 --> 00:08:23,613 Speaker 4: or five years ago that was just starting to do 181 00:08:23,733 --> 00:08:28,253 Speaker 4: the rounds right, and to Mave's benefit, she was expecting 182 00:08:28,293 --> 00:08:31,413 Speaker 4: a delivery. So she clicked on this text, took it 183 00:08:31,453 --> 00:08:34,093 Speaker 4: to a website. Then it asked for credit card information, 184 00:08:34,253 --> 00:08:36,413 Speaker 4: and she thought she was being real crafty that she 185 00:08:36,653 --> 00:08:40,093 Speaker 4: used a credit card of mine that I had canceled 186 00:08:41,333 --> 00:08:43,333 Speaker 4: in to get into the website and to see if 187 00:08:43,372 --> 00:08:45,213 Speaker 4: it was legit or not. But what she didn't know 188 00:08:45,293 --> 00:08:47,533 Speaker 4: even though I'd canceled the credit card, they could still 189 00:08:47,573 --> 00:08:50,612 Speaker 4: access it. It was in the process of being canceled, 190 00:08:50,852 --> 00:08:53,413 Speaker 4: so they managed to rack up about two hundred bucks 191 00:08:53,413 --> 00:08:54,293 Speaker 4: on that credit card. 192 00:08:54,653 --> 00:08:57,973 Speaker 2: So she was suspicious and she used your card, yeah, 193 00:08:58,053 --> 00:08:58,652 Speaker 2: to test it out. 194 00:08:58,693 --> 00:08:59,693 Speaker 3: Does she talk to you about it first? 195 00:08:59,773 --> 00:08:59,853 Speaker 7: No? 196 00:08:59,973 --> 00:09:02,933 Speaker 4: I was a living it's absolutely living. May that can 197 00:09:03,012 --> 00:09:05,852 Speaker 4: still use that credit card. Luckily, when I went straight 198 00:09:05,892 --> 00:09:08,213 Speaker 4: to the band and said, hey, this has happened, they 199 00:09:08,492 --> 00:09:11,252 Speaker 4: canceled that straight away, so that was they didn't manage 200 00:09:11,252 --> 00:09:13,973 Speaker 4: to get any money.

We spent months ringing him, even 341 00:15:48,213 --> 00:15:50,453 Speaker 4: when we were drinking fun times, but never saw the 342 00:15:50,453 --> 00:15:52,773 Speaker 4: money again, sweet revenge. 343 00:15:53,093 --> 00:15:53,413 Speaker 6: John. 344 00:15:53,533 --> 00:15:56,573 Speaker 2: You've experienced attempted scammers in the past. 345 00:15:57,333 --> 00:16:01,093 Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, this one's pretty dumb. So it's kind of funny. 346 00:16:02,293 --> 00:16:03,932 Speaker 11: We've had a couple of phone calls. We have a 347 00:16:03,973 --> 00:16:06,733 Speaker 11: confidential number, so we already ever give them and that goes. 348 00:16:06,733 --> 00:16:09,733 Speaker 11: So this hire for us Spark and we really want 349 00:16:09,773 --> 00:16:12,333 Speaker 11: to talk to you about your landline. And it's really 350 00:16:12,333 --> 00:16:15,373 Speaker 11: good because we're not with Spark, so that one's pretty easy. 351 00:16:15,173 --> 00:16:17,093 Speaker 12: To take care of and we just play along with it. 352 00:16:17,773 --> 00:16:22,373 Speaker 11: So that's the whole level. But this one is pretty nasty. 353 00:16:23,133 --> 00:16:27,413 Speaker 11: So what they did was somehow they knew that this 354 00:16:27,493 --> 00:16:29,813 Speaker 11: person was waiting for a phone call from the bank. 355 00:16:29,893 --> 00:16:33,093 Speaker 11: So you've got to guess these are very clever people. 356 00:16:33,133 --> 00:16:35,653 Speaker 11: And you've got to also wonder is it now organized crime? 357 00:16:35,693 --> 00:16:37,733 Speaker 11: And I'd say yes it is. So what they did 358 00:16:38,493 --> 00:16:41,453 Speaker 11: was they ring them, and they ring this person and 359 00:16:41,453 --> 00:16:44,253 Speaker 11: they had a little chit chat and said, hey, look 360 00:16:44,333 --> 00:16:47,253 Speaker 11: we're the bank, and everything checked out because they were 361 00:16:47,293 --> 00:16:50,013 Speaker 11: expecting a call from the bank. And even while they 362 00:16:50,013 --> 00:16:52,573 Speaker 11: were on this call the real bank where I tried 363 00:16:52,613 --> 00:16:55,093 Speaker 11: to wring them, but this person said, don't pick up 364 00:16:55,133 --> 00:16:57,173 Speaker 11: where are the real bank? And then I stick with us. 365 00:16:57,373 --> 00:17:00,453 Speaker 11: They knew all their details, did everything to the point 366 00:17:00,533 --> 00:17:03,493 Speaker 11: that this person did give over the phone permission for 367 00:17:03,613 --> 00:17:06,253 Speaker 11: what they wanted to do to do, and they transferred 368 00:17:06,253 --> 00:17:08,213 Speaker 11: the money out of their bank account. And we're talking 369 00:17:08,773 --> 00:17:11,292 Speaker 11: lots of money here, and they moved it out and 370 00:17:11,333 --> 00:17:13,813 Speaker 11: they moved it to an A and ZI bank account. 371 00:17:13,813 --> 00:17:16,613 Speaker 11: Now this is where the good part of the story happens. 372 00:17:16,653 --> 00:17:19,813 Speaker 11: They freaked out, going, oh, how what did I just 373 00:17:19,933 --> 00:17:24,053 Speaker 11: do because of how good they were, And what the 374 00:17:24,093 --> 00:17:26,053 Speaker 11: bank said is, look, it could be too late, but 375 00:17:26,133 --> 00:17:28,133 Speaker 11: what we're going to do is we're going to it's 376 00:17:28,173 --> 00:17:30,093 Speaker 11: gone to an am Z bank account. If we can 377 00:17:30,133 --> 00:17:32,373 Speaker 11: get hold of A and Z real fast, we can 378 00:17:32,413 --> 00:17:35,093 Speaker 11: stop that money from leaving their bank account. The poor 379 00:17:35,173 --> 00:17:38,373 Speaker 11: person sweated on this for let's say a week, and 380 00:17:38,413 --> 00:17:42,413 Speaker 11: they were more than worried because everything was gone. Fortunately 381 00:17:42,573 --> 00:17:44,853 Speaker 11: am Z was able to put a hold on that 382 00:17:44,933 --> 00:17:47,733 Speaker 11: money and it never went any hurt anywhere and it 383 00:17:47,813 --> 00:17:51,573 Speaker 11: was returned slucky. This is how good they are. 384 00:17:51,213 --> 00:17:51,733 Speaker 12: Real good. 385 00:17:51,893 --> 00:17:54,413 Speaker 2: So John, do you think that they knew that the 386 00:17:54,453 --> 00:17:57,853 Speaker 2: call was coming through, or that it was just an 387 00:17:57,893 --> 00:18:00,572 Speaker 2: incredible coincidence and they're scamming so many people in now. 388 00:18:00,573 --> 00:18:04,213 Speaker 11: In the beginning, I reckon they knew because one of 389 00:18:04,213 --> 00:18:06,773 Speaker 11: the things they said to this person was they go, oh, 390 00:18:06,853 --> 00:18:09,133 Speaker 11: but the bank's calling me, Nona, don't pick that up. 391 00:18:09,173 --> 00:18:10,173 Speaker 11: We are the bank, We. 392 00:18:10,133 --> 00:18:10,853 Speaker 12: Are the real deal. 393 00:18:10,933 --> 00:18:13,333 Speaker 11: And they gave that even more information that only they 394 00:18:13,373 --> 00:18:17,013 Speaker 11: could know if they had had their accounts. They knew 395 00:18:17,133 --> 00:18:19,893 Speaker 11: all this stuff, and that's why they were so plausible, 396 00:18:19,973 --> 00:18:22,773 Speaker 11: because it really looked like you were talking to a 397 00:18:22,813 --> 00:18:25,453 Speaker 11: real person from the bank. They had a perfect kiwi 398 00:18:25,533 --> 00:18:27,853 Speaker 11: accent the whole They were good, real good. 399 00:18:28,053 --> 00:18:30,333 Speaker 4: You're very lucky that was it a bank teller or 400 00:18:30,373 --> 00:18:32,573 Speaker 4: a senior manager who managed to stop that in time. 401 00:18:34,013 --> 00:18:39,133 Speaker 11: Odd the people were more than relief day, I mean 402 00:18:40,333 --> 00:18:44,693 Speaker 11: really really really relieved, like oh yeah, because the turmoil 403 00:18:44,773 --> 00:18:46,173 Speaker 11: they went through when they didn't know. 404 00:18:46,173 --> 00:18:50,413 Speaker 12: What was going to happen. Major yeah, major sleepless nights, 405 00:18:50,413 --> 00:18:50,853 Speaker 12: et cetera. 406 00:18:51,013 --> 00:18:52,973 Speaker 4: I mean I say that because I know banks get 407 00:18:53,013 --> 00:18:55,773 Speaker 4: a lot of heat when these when people get ripped 408 00:18:55,813 --> 00:18:58,773 Speaker 4: off by genuine scams. But I wonder about the liability 409 00:18:58,813 --> 00:19:02,293 Speaker 4: of the bank. Sometimes that's incredibly lucky in your situation, John, 410 00:19:02,333 --> 00:19:05,413 Speaker 4: that that bank worker knew something was up and stopped 411 00:19:05,413 --> 00:19:08,333 Speaker 4: at it. But I don't know that that's the responsibility always, 412 00:19:08,453 --> 00:19:09,733 Speaker 4: you know, if they say something. 413 00:19:09,453 --> 00:19:09,813 Speaker 13: Good on that. 414 00:19:11,213 --> 00:19:14,213 Speaker 11: Yeah, but I'll tell you something you've just reminded. We 415 00:19:14,253 --> 00:19:16,413 Speaker 11: did get scammed, and I won't name the bank. Let's 416 00:19:16,453 --> 00:19:20,413 Speaker 11: just say it's Stay owned. So we got scammed in 417 00:19:20,533 --> 00:19:23,893 Speaker 11: the US and we were boarding a flight and it 418 00:19:23,973 --> 00:19:26,093 Speaker 11: was to try and get an esther. Okay, I hate 419 00:19:26,093 --> 00:19:28,133 Speaker 11: this digital world, by the way, I think it sucks. 420 00:19:28,453 --> 00:19:30,533 Speaker 11: So we had to get this special thing to get 421 00:19:30,533 --> 00:19:33,493 Speaker 11: into Canada from the US. Nobody told us, even the 422 00:19:33,533 --> 00:19:35,653 Speaker 11: airline at the time that we're not allowed to tell you. 423 00:19:35,693 --> 00:19:39,213 Speaker 11: Just scan this QR code, so we did. Anyway, we 424 00:19:39,333 --> 00:19:42,613 Speaker 11: get to Canada and then I quickly get on my 425 00:19:42,613 --> 00:19:44,453 Speaker 11: phone to have a lock in there. Two one hundred 426 00:19:44,453 --> 00:19:46,613 Speaker 11: and twenty five bucks has gone out of the account 427 00:19:46,613 --> 00:19:49,333 Speaker 11: on some kind of sports shoes on another side of America. 428 00:19:49,733 --> 00:19:51,293 Speaker 11: And then we get back to New Zealand.

It probably 599 00:27:54,373 --> 00:27:55,973 Speaker 16: wasn't good because it improved his game. 600 00:27:56,533 --> 00:27:59,413 Speaker 2: Right, But it used to be if you went to 601 00:27:59,493 --> 00:28:02,253 Speaker 2: a fake website, it looked lower rears, it looked rubbish 602 00:28:02,253 --> 00:28:03,933 Speaker 2: because it was a lot of energy to put in 603 00:28:03,973 --> 00:28:06,373 Speaker 2: to create a website that looked legit. But now it's 604 00:28:06,413 --> 00:28:09,693 Speaker 2: so easy, and with AI coming through, the amount of 605 00:28:09,693 --> 00:28:12,013 Speaker 2: effort to be put into make a website there where 606 00:28:12,013 --> 00:28:15,653 Speaker 2: all the links will go to places is becoming easier 607 00:28:15,693 --> 00:28:18,813 Speaker 2: and easy. So even if you if you're trained to 608 00:28:18,813 --> 00:28:23,493 Speaker 2: see what wasn't isn't quite right then. 609 00:28:22,573 --> 00:28:25,213 Speaker 16: But even then I was probably quite stupid in the 610 00:28:25,413 --> 00:28:29,773 Speaker 16: entering my bank details into I think, so, yeah, just 611 00:28:30,493 --> 00:28:31,413 Speaker 16: just watching out for that. 612 00:28:31,573 --> 00:28:35,093 Speaker 2: If you're even slightly I mean, that's really the thing. 613 00:28:35,133 --> 00:28:39,133 Speaker 2: If you're even slightly even I mean basically, don't give 614 00:28:39,133 --> 00:28:43,013 Speaker 2: your credit card details when they're asked for, as basically on. 615 00:28:43,493 --> 00:28:46,373 Speaker 16: My rule of some would be don't follow don't follow links. 616 00:28:46,653 --> 00:28:48,693 Speaker 16: If you're buying or selling something, just go through a 617 00:28:48,933 --> 00:28:50,893 Speaker 16: z saying look, will you take a transfer if they 618 00:28:50,893 --> 00:28:53,813 Speaker 16: won't take a transfer after yourself wise, Yeah. 619 00:28:53,573 --> 00:28:56,373 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I guess what I'm saying is if someone 620 00:28:56,413 --> 00:28:59,813 Speaker 2: comes to you, then don't give them your details. I mean, 621 00:28:59,853 --> 00:29:01,893 Speaker 2: if you've gone obviously, if you've gone to a site, 622 00:29:01,893 --> 00:29:03,173 Speaker 2: you've seen it, you've put it in the cart, and 623 00:29:03,253 --> 00:29:06,053 Speaker 2: you bought it, then then that makes sense. But if 624 00:29:06,053 --> 00:29:10,213 Speaker 2: someone's approached you with something and then they want to payment, 625 00:29:10,733 --> 00:29:13,573 Speaker 2: then you have to really, really really think through before 626 00:29:13,573 --> 00:29:14,413 Speaker 2: you make that payment. 627 00:29:14,533 --> 00:29:17,653 Speaker 4: Yeah, but you've just reminded me, James.

Not the oldest 864 00:40:28,773 --> 00:40:31,333 Speaker 2: private school in the country, but the most expensive. 865 00:40:31,453 --> 00:40:34,413 Speaker 4: I think Nelson College, my alma Martin might be the 866 00:40:34,453 --> 00:40:35,693 Speaker 4: oldest college in the country. 867 00:40:35,733 --> 00:40:37,893 Speaker 3: That's the oldest college. But that's not a private college, 868 00:40:37,933 --> 00:40:39,053 Speaker 3: is it. No, that's public. 869 00:40:39,453 --> 00:40:40,933 Speaker 2: That's public. It's the oldest school in the country. 870 00:40:41,013 --> 00:40:42,933 Speaker 3: I believe, so that I'll run out and go there. 871 00:40:43,013 --> 00:40:46,253 Speaker 4: He did a beautiful bust of Sir Ernest Rutherford and 872 00:40:46,373 --> 00:40:49,013 Speaker 4: the halls when you walk in and man, it's a 873 00:40:49,013 --> 00:40:51,893 Speaker 4: good school school for a public school. Okay, Yeah, But 874 00:40:52,253 --> 00:40:55,813 Speaker 4: as I think, there is one private high school Nelson 875 00:40:55,813 --> 00:40:59,613 Speaker 4: now called garn College, that didn't exist when I was there. 876 00:40:59,653 --> 00:41:01,933 Speaker 4: But on the talk about public versus prime but we 877 00:41:01,973 --> 00:41:04,253 Speaker 4: didn't really have an option, so I went to Nelson College, 878 00:41:04,253 --> 00:41:06,773 Speaker 4: which is a very good college for a public school. 879 00:41:06,973 --> 00:41:10,453 Speaker 4: My older brother went to Nayland and Nelson, which again 880 00:41:10,573 --> 00:41:12,573 Speaker 4: public school, and then my little bro went to Nelson 881 00:41:12,573 --> 00:41:15,373 Speaker 4: College as well, but it wasn't an option, saying that 882 00:41:15,493 --> 00:41:18,333 Speaker 4: there was a boarding house and from memory, the board 883 00:41:18,333 --> 00:41:19,373 Speaker 4: has paid about. 884 00:41:19,133 --> 00:41:22,732 Speaker 3: Ten ten k term. Oh yeah, so that was about 885 00:41:22,773 --> 00:41:23,573 Speaker 3: forty k oh. 886 00:41:23,653 --> 00:41:25,653 Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd have been eaten up and spat out in 887 00:41:25,733 --> 00:41:27,333 Speaker 2: a boarding school. 888 00:41:27,093 --> 00:41:32,453 Speaker 4: Mate, dodgy boarding schools at Nowson College, that's for sure. 889 00:41:32,613 --> 00:41:36,813 Speaker 2: The question is whether or not boarding or not or 890 00:41:36,853 --> 00:41:40,172 Speaker 2: such or whatever, are private school's worth it? Are they 891 00:41:40,173 --> 00:41:42,933 Speaker 2: better than public schools. I've got a very wealthy friend 892 00:41:43,213 --> 00:41:45,813 Speaker 2: who sent his kids to public school even though he 893 00:41:45,813 --> 00:41:47,573 Speaker 2: had more than enough money to go to private school. 894 00:41:47,573 --> 00:41:50,773 Speaker 2: And his theory on this situation was that he wanted 895 00:41:50,773 --> 00:41:54,053 Speaker 2: his kids to experience New Zealand society as it is 896 00:41:54,573 --> 00:41:59,453 Speaker 2: not some kind of purified, rarefied version of it where 897 00:41:59,493 --> 00:42:02,933 Speaker 2: all the you know, all the all the roughness had 898 00:42:02,933 --> 00:42:04,893 Speaker 2: been come off, so to deal with a whole lot 899 00:42:04,933 --> 00:42:05,732 Speaker 2: of different types of people. 900 00:42:05,813 --> 00:42:09,773 Speaker 4: Really, it's anos philosophy. They could and poor you know, 901 00:42:10,213 --> 00:42:13,293 Speaker 4: you'd be a more more well rounded person going to 902 00:42:13,253 --> 00:42:13,893 Speaker 4: a public school. 903 00:42:13,973 --> 00:42:16,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, you, and you'd hit the workforce being able to 904 00:42:16,133 --> 00:42:17,973 Speaker 2: deal with all kinds of people. That was his theory 905 00:42:18,013 --> 00:42:20,373 Speaker 2: on it. I went to I went to public school. 906 00:42:21,173 --> 00:42:23,212 Speaker 2: I was threatened every now and then with being sent 907 00:42:23,293 --> 00:42:26,053 Speaker 2: to boarding school due to my poor behavior. But I 908 00:42:26,093 --> 00:42:29,133 Speaker 2: went to public school, and I had a terrible education 909 00:42:29,413 --> 00:42:31,213 Speaker 2: and came out dumble. 910 00:42:31,013 --> 00:42:31,333 Speaker 3: Than I went. 911 00:42:31,373 --> 00:42:33,413 Speaker 4: And I think, yeah, but look at you now. Yeah, 912 00:42:33,453 --> 00:42:35,013 Speaker 4: it's a hell of a threat, though, isn't it. So 913 00:42:35,053 --> 00:42:36,853 Speaker 4: if you don't pull your head and we're going to 914 00:42:36,853 --> 00:42:39,933 Speaker 4: spend forty thousand dollars to send you to a private school, 915 00:42:39,973 --> 00:42:42,373 Speaker 4: so you better make sure you behave yourself. 916 00:42:42,453 --> 00:42:45,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, I hardn't though, John mcgreshon, was that much money 917 00:42:45,093 --> 00:42:47,292 Speaker 2: back in the day. But yeah, I wait, hundred eighty 918 00:42:47,413 --> 00:42:49,773 Speaker 2: ten eighty do your kids go to private school and 919 00:42:49,813 --> 00:42:52,093 Speaker 2: what are the advantages or I waite hundred and eighty 920 00:42:52,173 --> 00:42:54,613 Speaker 2: ten eighty a year happy with the education you get 921 00:42:54,653 --> 00:42:56,933 Speaker 2: to a public school and you just cannot imagine spending 922 00:42:56,973 --> 00:42:59,493 Speaker 2: that money because because I actually think, you know, my 923 00:42:59,613 --> 00:43:02,573 Speaker 2: kids went to public schools, and I think it's an 924 00:43:02,613 --> 00:43:06,933 Speaker 2: amazing thing that a school is provided for you. I mean, 925 00:43:06,973 --> 00:43:08,813 Speaker 2: I pay a lot of tax, but the school is 926 00:43:08,853 --> 00:43:11,413 Speaker 2: provided for you. And it's a fantastic school that especially 927 00:43:11,413 --> 00:43:14,333 Speaker 2: the high school that my kids are at. It's a 928 00:43:14,373 --> 00:43:17,333 Speaker 2: fantastic thing that's been provided and put together and there's 929 00:43:17,373 --> 00:43:20,252 Speaker 2: great teachers and great opportunities there. So I think I'd 930 00:43:20,293 --> 00:43:23,053 Speaker 2: be crazy to ship them away from the public school 931 00:43:23,093 --> 00:43:23,573 Speaker 2: that they go to. 932 00:43:23,733 --> 00:43:26,093 Speaker 4: Seems to be a big thing in christ Church that 933 00:43:27,053 --> 00:43:30,293 Speaker 4: the private schools are held in very high esteem and parents, 934 00:43:30,293 --> 00:43:32,613 Speaker 4: if they can afford it, we'll get their kids to 935 00:43:32,693 --> 00:43:35,333 Speaker 4: those private schools. A hell of high water and it is. 936 00:43:35,413 --> 00:43:38,652 Speaker 4: It feels very christ specific there. But I think I 937 00:43:38,693 --> 00:43:40,973 Speaker 4: was lucky going to Nelson College. That was it's quite 938 00:43:40,973 --> 00:43:43,453 Speaker 4: an esteemed college, very well to do. They had a 939 00:43:43,453 --> 00:43:45,573 Speaker 4: lot of resource and they get a lot of money 940 00:43:45,573 --> 00:43:48,053 Speaker 4: from the community and got a good old boys network, 941 00:43:48,373 --> 00:43:50,973 Speaker 4: but still public. And I think that's a big thing 942 00:43:51,093 --> 00:43:54,973 Speaker 4: for Cantaps. And we're talking. What kicked off this topic 943 00:43:55,053 --> 00:43:57,053 Speaker 4: was Christ College the old boys network. 944 00:43:57,333 --> 00:43:58,212 Speaker 3: Yeah, right, so. 945 00:43:58,253 --> 00:44:01,493 Speaker 2: You meet people in the upper echelons of society, and 946 00:44:01,693 --> 00:44:05,453 Speaker 2: so you will, even if you're not that flash yourself, Yeah, 947 00:44:05,533 --> 00:44:07,692 Speaker 2: you will operate in that. And then one day, You're 948 00:44:07,733 --> 00:44:11,693 Speaker 2: going to a job like we remember crumpeting you and 949 00:44:12,493 --> 00:44:13,413 Speaker 2: we are in the dormant. 950 00:44:13,413 --> 00:44:15,413 Speaker 4: It's very Charles Dickens, isn't it. That's how it used 951 00:44:15,413 --> 00:44:16,853 Speaker 4: to operate. I don't I don't know if I buy 952 00:44:16,933 --> 00:44:18,933 Speaker 4: that anymore. I don't know if the Old Boys network 953 00:44:19,013 --> 00:44:21,172 Speaker 4: is still as strong as it was fifty years ago. 954 00:44:21,333 --> 00:44:24,093 Speaker 2: This Texter on nineteen nine two says ex secondary teacher 955 00:44:24,133 --> 00:44:28,333 Speaker 2: taught in both private private as a networking exercise. Teachers 956 00:44:28,333 --> 00:44:30,413 Speaker 2: that train the same resources are better on the private, 957 00:44:30,453 --> 00:44:32,573 Speaker 2: but they have the same issues bullying, eating disorders, and 958 00:44:33,933 --> 00:44:37,333 Speaker 2: mental health problems.

Hey, when you said 1018 00:47:10,453 --> 00:47:13,093 Speaker 2: that you're one of your kids went to Catholic school? 1019 00:47:13,133 --> 00:47:15,893 Speaker 2: Were you Catholic?

But my 1022 00:47:20,173 --> 00:47:24,173 Speaker 13: wife parents were Catholic, so we used that way. And 1023 00:47:24,333 --> 00:47:26,893 Speaker 13: since then I found out that I'm being either statised Catholic. 1024 00:47:26,893 --> 00:47:28,853 Speaker 13: I had no idea and I'm sixteen years old now, 1025 00:47:28,933 --> 00:47:34,253 Speaker 13: so my brother told me and so. But yeah, that 1026 00:47:34,453 --> 00:47:35,853 Speaker 13: was more of a convenience thing. 1027 00:47:38,293 --> 00:47:39,373 Speaker 17: For for us. 1028 00:47:39,733 --> 00:47:42,373 Speaker 13: My stays with the sport the kids are doing. 1029 00:47:42,373 --> 00:47:43,172 Speaker 18: It was he deal. 1030 00:47:43,213 --> 00:47:45,692 Speaker 13: I got a art way between the and the signing pool, 1031 00:47:45,773 --> 00:47:49,133 Speaker 13: so they made their life eat yet but yeah, I 1032 00:47:49,173 --> 00:47:51,853 Speaker 13: think they're paid off too well.

But I think quite 1153 00:53:44,773 --> 00:53:50,373 Speaker 19: public schools do an amazing job at giving young young 1154 00:53:50,413 --> 00:53:54,813 Speaker 19: adults just as much opportunity as private schools.

I was thinking, 1571 01:13:25,133 --> 01:13:26,173 Speaker 2: I save a lot of food. 1572 01:13:27,133 --> 01:13:29,972 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean there were sometimes at Nelson College when 1573 01:13:30,013 --> 01:13:31,852 Speaker 4: we saw what the borders were going to get at lunchtime, 1574 01:13:31,893 --> 01:13:34,293 Speaker 4: and you'd pay five bucks to eat what they eat, and. 1575 01:13:34,253 --> 01:13:37,612 Speaker 2: It was some good feeding teenagers.

Oh 1579 01:13:47,333 --> 01:13:49,012 Speaker 4: you went to both private and public? 1580 01:13:51,013 --> 01:13:54,892 Speaker 12: Yes, So I went to a well known Auckland boarding 1581 01:13:54,933 --> 01:14:00,093 Speaker 12: school and I decided to leave there and attended a 1582 01:14:00,093 --> 01:14:01,732 Speaker 12: Auckland public school. 1583 01:14:02,893 --> 01:14:03,053 Speaker 14: Right. 1584 01:14:03,692 --> 01:14:08,892 Speaker 12: It's a very interesting comparison between the two. And I 1585 01:14:08,933 --> 01:14:13,132 Speaker 12: found the education that I was receiving at the private 1586 01:14:13,173 --> 01:14:17,653 Speaker 12: school to be great, and I was in advanced classes 1587 01:14:17,692 --> 01:14:20,732 Speaker 12: for English, for maths, and something that didn't carry on 1588 01:14:20,772 --> 01:14:25,012 Speaker 12: when I went to public school, where sort of said 1589 01:14:25,013 --> 01:14:26,532 Speaker 12: to me, I will take a back seat since really 1590 01:14:26,572 --> 01:14:28,572 Speaker 12: know this stuff. And wait, we went out sid of 1591 01:14:28,612 --> 01:14:31,532 Speaker 12: catchers up rather than trying to push your head, which 1592 01:14:31,572 --> 01:14:35,772 Speaker 12: you get at the private school. So it's it's probably 1593 01:14:35,772 --> 01:14:38,772 Speaker 12: an exciting depend which public school you go to, because 1594 01:14:38,772 --> 01:14:40,132 Speaker 12: they're not all created equal. 1595 01:14:40,333 --> 01:14:42,492 Speaker 3: What age did you swap over from? What age? 1596 01:14:42,492 --> 01:14:42,612 Speaker 15: Did? 1597 01:14:43,013 --> 01:14:45,932 Speaker 3: What year did you swap over from private to public?

That wasn't a very great school ahead 1605 01:15:14,893 --> 01:15:17,492 Speaker 12: a bit of reputation, I guess, sort of as one 1606 01:15:17,532 --> 01:15:20,133 Speaker 12: of there's no uniform, call your teacher by their first 1607 01:15:20,213 --> 01:15:21,812 Speaker 12: name for the schools shocking. 1608 01:15:22,093 --> 01:15:23,572 Speaker 2: I'm not a support of those kind of school. 1609 01:15:28,173 --> 01:15:33,372 Speaker 3: Was coming to schools. How come you moved that was? 1610 01:15:33,372 --> 01:15:36,572 Speaker 2: Was that your choice or the family moved or circumstances changed. 1611 01:15:38,772 --> 01:15:42,892 Speaker 12: I experienced bullying at Dilworth, right, so that was the 1612 01:15:42,933 --> 01:15:43,612 Speaker 12: reason to move. 1613 01:15:43,893 --> 01:15:44,173 Speaker 7: It was. 1614 01:15:44,253 --> 01:15:47,013 Speaker 12: It was a great school as far as education, but 1615 01:15:47,333 --> 01:15:51,772 Speaker 12: the whole that school's obviously got problems, right, Yeah, everyone, 1616 01:15:53,213 --> 01:15:57,732 Speaker 12: So some people enjoy it, some people don't. But you know, 1617 01:15:58,013 --> 01:15:59,892 Speaker 12: I definitely think that you're going to get a bit 1618 01:15:59,933 --> 01:16:02,972 Speaker 12: of education at a private school. They definitely foster you a. 1619 01:16:02,893 --> 01:16:05,372 Speaker 7: Better try and push you, encourage. 1620 01:16:04,933 --> 01:16:09,452 Speaker 12: Sports and extracurriculum things, you know, so just music and that, 1621 01:16:09,452 --> 01:16:12,132 Speaker 12: which don't necessarily at a public school. 1622 01:16:12,333 --> 01:16:14,692 Speaker 2: Yeah, when you'd expect that, wouldn't you expect? You know, 1623 01:16:14,692 --> 01:16:16,932 Speaker 2: if you're paying for something, then you'd expect to get 1624 01:16:17,013 --> 01:16:17,852 Speaker 2: more for your money. 1625 01:16:18,492 --> 01:16:19,293 Speaker 3: That's the whole point of it. 1626 01:16:19,333 --> 01:16:21,933 Speaker 2: But did how was the bullying when you went to 1627 01:16:22,053 --> 01:16:24,652 Speaker 2: the public school? Did you not experience bullyting? Was that 1628 01:16:24,452 --> 01:16:25,692 Speaker 2: that problem sorted for you? 1629 01:16:28,412 --> 01:16:28,652 Speaker 21: Yeah? 1630 01:16:28,812 --> 01:16:33,572 Speaker 12: I think for the most part, I found my social 1631 01:16:33,612 --> 01:16:35,612 Speaker 12: life got a lot better being at a public school, 1632 01:16:35,933 --> 01:16:39,253 Speaker 12: and it did at the at the boarding school.

It just feels dirty, It just 1978 01:30:44,732 --> 01:30:47,173 Speaker 2: feels it just feels like your money is just being 1979 01:30:47,253 --> 01:30:50,572 Speaker 2: removed from you. And I know a lot of companies 1980 01:30:50,572 --> 01:30:54,053 Speaker 2: are moving away from self service because of theft, and 1981 01:30:54,652 --> 01:30:57,052 Speaker 2: you know, you have to hire someone to check the receipts, 1982 01:30:57,133 --> 01:31:00,692 Speaker 2: and there's there's a lot of software updates and there's 1983 01:31:00,732 --> 01:31:05,692 Speaker 2: complexities around it. But also you quickly lose You don't 1984 01:31:05,732 --> 01:31:08,333 Speaker 2: really have any what's the wood loyalty to a brand, 1985 01:31:08,612 --> 01:31:12,492 Speaker 2: you haven't talked to anyone's there's no interaction. 1986 01:31:12,333 --> 01:31:14,333 Speaker 4: And it's the wild West at those km Art self 1987 01:31:14,333 --> 01:31:18,452 Speaker 4: service checkouts is horrendous and nothing against Kmart. All the workers, 1988 01:31:18,452 --> 01:31:20,013 Speaker 4: you guys are doing God's work there. 1989 01:31:20,053 --> 01:31:20,692 Speaker 3: It's the public. 1990 01:31:20,812 --> 01:31:24,052 Speaker 4: Like Gary just said, I mean it's crazy town in Kmart. 1991 01:31:24,053 --> 01:31:26,772 Speaker 2: It does it feels dirty? Yeah, I feel dirty going through. 1992 01:31:26,812 --> 01:31:28,492 Speaker 2: I don't know, not dirty is not the word. I 1993 01:31:28,572 --> 01:31:30,852 Speaker 2: just feel there's no there's no experience. 1994 01:31:31,013 --> 01:31:32,932 Speaker 3: You yourself just go and pick. 1995 01:31:32,853 --> 01:31:35,412 Speaker 2: Something up off the floor, take it to the counter, 1996 01:31:35,893 --> 01:31:39,053 Speaker 2: swipe it and then sort of slunk off with your 1997 01:31:39,093 --> 01:31:40,052 Speaker 2: towel between your legs. 1998 01:31:40,093 --> 01:31:41,253 Speaker 3: Do you know? What does my head? 1999 01:31:41,253 --> 01:31:43,652 Speaker 4: And when I go shop at Kmart, is I you 2000 01:31:43,692 --> 01:31:46,452 Speaker 4: know I might be looking for some towels or some 2001 01:31:46,572 --> 01:31:52,253 Speaker 4: crockery or some kitchen implements, and people just if they 2002 01:31:52,293 --> 01:31:54,452 Speaker 4: decide they don't want the product, they don't take it 2003 01:31:54,452 --> 01:31:56,293 Speaker 4: back to where it needs to go. They just drop 2004 01:31:56,333 --> 01:31:59,532 Speaker 4: it any old where if you come across there. So 2005 01:31:59,532 --> 01:32:01,372 Speaker 4: if you actually want to try and find the product, 2006 01:32:01,412 --> 01:32:04,772 Speaker 4: good luck, because all these all these muppets and kmart 2007 01:32:04,812 --> 01:32:06,652 Speaker 4: who are doing their shopping just drop it all over there, 2008 01:32:07,133 --> 01:32:07,853 Speaker 4: more stuff. 2009 01:32:07,692 --> 01:32:10,213 Speaker 2: And you can't go you have anything in the size 2010 01:32:10,213 --> 01:32:13,253 Speaker 2: out the back? Do you say that to to a machine? Hey, 2011 01:32:13,293 --> 01:32:15,412 Speaker 2: this six says never allowed km maut or Buntings to 2012 01:32:15,452 --> 01:32:18,213 Speaker 2: scan your receipts. Once you have paid for it, the 2013 01:32:18,213 --> 01:32:20,452 Speaker 2: products are yours and you have no legal obligation to 2014 01:32:20,492 --> 01:32:23,092 Speaker 2: prove it. It's their own problem to prove otherwise door 2015 01:32:23,853 --> 01:32:27,333 Speaker 2: their self service only checkouts. That's a good point. Actually, 2016 01:32:27,372 --> 01:32:30,732 Speaker 2: So if I've paid for something, right, yeah, then it's mine, 2017 01:32:31,173 --> 01:32:33,013 Speaker 2: so don't ask me about it. You might as well 2018 01:32:33,053 --> 01:32:34,253 Speaker 2: come up to me on the street and ask me 2019 01:32:34,253 --> 01:32:34,612 Speaker 2: about it. 2020 01:32:34,612 --> 01:32:36,612 Speaker 3: But don't you have to prove it with your receipt? No, 2021 01:32:36,692 --> 01:32:38,173 Speaker 3: but it's mine. 2022 01:32:38,732 --> 01:32:40,732 Speaker 2: So by that same logic, they could say prove that 2023 01:32:40,772 --> 01:32:44,293 Speaker 2: those pants are yours, they're mine. They're my pants as 2024 01:32:44,333 --> 01:32:46,052 Speaker 2: soon as I've paid for it, that's. 2025 01:32:45,812 --> 01:32:47,932 Speaker 3: Mine, So but how do they know that you're paid 2026 01:32:47,933 --> 01:32:48,253 Speaker 3: for it? Though? 2027 01:32:48,293 --> 01:32:50,692 Speaker 2: I mean, that's their problem. They've run a self service, 2028 01:32:51,173 --> 01:32:54,052 Speaker 2: so that's their problem. That's why for the longest time 2029 01:32:54,612 --> 01:32:57,372 Speaker 2: they had the checkouts at the door, because you paid 2030 01:32:57,372 --> 01:32:59,093 Speaker 2: and you went out the door, so they knew. So 2031 01:32:59,133 --> 01:33:01,812 Speaker 2: now if you've got self service, I'm walking to the door. 2032 01:33:01,853 --> 01:33:04,333 Speaker 2: Someone asked me about it, and bless Gary that we 2033 01:33:04,333 --> 01:33:05,892 Speaker 2: were talking to before, I think was Gary, wasn't. 2034 01:33:05,973 --> 01:33:06,732 Speaker 3: Yeah, we were. 2035 01:33:06,612 --> 01:33:09,253 Speaker 2: Talking before, and don't be rude. Anyone that's got their job. 2036 01:33:09,293 --> 01:33:12,012 Speaker 2: It's not his problem. But you're asking me to prove 2037 01:33:12,093 --> 01:33:14,212 Speaker 2: that what is mine is mine. You might as well 2038 01:33:14,372 --> 01:33:15,812 Speaker 2: knock on the window of my car and ask me 2039 01:33:15,812 --> 01:33:16,372 Speaker 2: if it's my car? 2040 01:33:16,692 --> 01:33:17,972 Speaker 3: Have you got a receipt for this vehicle? 2041 01:33:18,013 --> 01:33:18,293 Speaker 2: Set? 2042 01:33:18,333 --> 01:33:20,892 Speaker 4: But Bunnings is odd. What's their policy? Because sometimes they 2043 01:33:20,893 --> 01:33:23,013 Speaker 4: scan it and sometimes I'm rocking there and I've got 2044 01:33:23,053 --> 01:33:25,173 Speaker 4: my receipt ready to scan and they look the other way, 2045 01:33:25,293 --> 01:33:27,293 Speaker 4: and it's real awkward. It's almost like going to shake 2046 01:33:27,333 --> 01:33:29,932 Speaker 4: someone's hand and they remove their hand away. What's said 2047 01:33:29,933 --> 01:33:32,013 Speaker 4: about Bunnings? Do you want to scan my receipt or not? 2048 01:33:32,253 --> 01:33:33,013 Speaker 4: I'm ready to go. 2049 01:33:33,492 --> 01:33:35,893 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I don't know about that one either.

They've got 2146 01:37:55,093 --> 01:37:56,852 Speaker 4: a pretty good formula which is fair enough to. 2147 01:37:56,973 --> 01:37:57,772 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, mind you. 2148 01:37:57,812 --> 01:37:59,412 Speaker 2: The first time I went to costcos in the States, 2149 01:37:59,492 --> 01:38:01,973 Speaker 2: I thought, this is really really cheap. And then I 2150 01:38:02,013 --> 01:38:03,412 Speaker 2: went up to the counter and I was about to buy. 2151 01:38:03,412 --> 01:38:05,452 Speaker 2: I was so confused and they said, oh, you remember, 2152 01:38:05,893 --> 01:38:07,532 Speaker 2: you know, and I was like, what, No, can I 2153 01:38:07,572 --> 01:38:08,013 Speaker 2: just buy this? 2154 01:38:09,013 --> 01:38:10,652 Speaker 3: And so it's a weird thing. 2155 01:38:10,812 --> 01:38:12,612 Speaker 4: I've never been to costco.

I would like to request a change to 2231 01:41:52,853 --> 01:41:55,692 Speaker 2: my working arrangements to the price status quo as per 2232 01:41:55,772 --> 01:42:01,412 Speaker 2: Employment Relations Act two thousand, Parts six AA, flexible working. 2233 01:42:01,572 --> 01:42:04,772 Speaker 2: And don't think they can point to any exemption as 2234 01:42:04,812 --> 01:42:09,772 Speaker 2: per six nine AAF the guy knows legislation, Man, they 2235 01:42:09,853 --> 01:42:14,652 Speaker 2: sanctioned me for asking for this variation eg. Refuse bonus payments, etc. 2236 01:42:15,372 --> 01:42:16,452 Speaker 2: Thanks boys. 2237 01:42:17,253 --> 01:42:21,132 Speaker 21: There's so much in that one, isn't there? I guess 2238 01:42:21,652 --> 01:42:27,212 Speaker 21: summarizing it, a lot of businesses went fully remote during COVID, 2239 01:42:27,933 --> 01:42:31,293 Speaker 21: and now they've seen that that comes with a whole 2240 01:42:31,293 --> 01:42:34,213 Speaker 21: lot of downsides, and there's a lot of pressure for 2241 01:42:34,293 --> 01:42:37,852 Speaker 21: people to return to the office. You don't have to 2242 01:42:37,853 --> 01:42:40,932 Speaker 21: be a genius to work out that. If everybody's working 2243 01:42:40,973 --> 01:42:45,052 Speaker 21: from home, it's so much more difficult to train junior staff. 2244 01:42:45,213 --> 01:42:50,532 Speaker 21: Mental people include people on meetings and discussions and often 2245 01:42:50,572 --> 01:42:53,093 Speaker 21: say you learn a lot through osmosis listening and what 2246 01:42:53,133 --> 01:42:55,612 Speaker 21: the person next to you is saying on the phone. 2247 01:42:56,532 --> 01:42:58,093 Speaker 21: So there's a lot of pressure for people to go 2248 01:42:58,173 --> 01:43:02,852 Speaker 21: back to the office. Very difficult to answer the coolest 2249 01:43:02,933 --> 01:43:08,692 Speaker 21: questions because it is so fact dependent. Now, if you 2250 01:43:09,532 --> 01:43:11,972 Speaker 21: got the job and it's heid that your work would 2251 01:43:11,973 --> 01:43:15,213 Speaker 21: be remote, the employer would have to consult with you 2252 01:43:15,333 --> 01:43:18,213 Speaker 21: and essentially do a restructure before they could force you 2253 01:43:18,293 --> 01:43:23,093 Speaker 21: back to the office. You know, as I've seen for 2254 01:43:23,173 --> 01:43:26,253 Speaker 21: years and years on the show, that you need to 2255 01:43:26,293 --> 01:43:29,053 Speaker 21: be very careful in situations like this because yes, you 2256 01:43:29,133 --> 01:43:32,253 Speaker 21: may have legal options open to you, but do you 2257 01:43:32,293 --> 01:43:34,532 Speaker 21: want to be the nail that sticks up because you 2258 01:43:34,612 --> 01:43:35,892 Speaker 21: might get smacked down? 2259 01:43:37,293 --> 01:43:38,853 Speaker 3: You good analogy? 2260 01:43:39,053 --> 01:43:42,932 Speaker 21: Yeah, you know, if you're really difficult when times are tough, 2261 01:43:43,973 --> 01:43:45,692 Speaker 21: you might be the first one out the door when 2262 01:43:45,732 --> 01:43:50,052 Speaker 21: there's a restructure. So I think there's a fine line 2263 01:43:50,093 --> 01:43:52,492 Speaker 21: to be walked here. Yes, definitely you can ask for 2264 01:43:52,572 --> 01:43:56,053 Speaker 21: flexible working arrangements. Your employer has to consider that in 2265 01:43:56,093 --> 01:43:58,372 Speaker 21: good faith, but they don't have to agree. 2266 01:43:59,412 --> 01:44:02,732 Speaker 2: Okay, we're talking to employment law a Gareth abnan Or 2267 01:44:02,853 --> 01:44:06,653 Speaker 2: from Admoral Law. John, you've got a question for Gareth. 2268 01:44:08,973 --> 01:44:09,333 Speaker 6: John. 2269 01:44:11,173 --> 01:44:14,532 Speaker 4: Yeah, hello, yeah, okay, now you're on with Gareth John. 2270 01:44:14,572 --> 01:44:15,253 Speaker 4: What's your question. 2271 01:44:17,492 --> 01:44:19,852 Speaker 24: We've recently been taken over by another company. In it 2272 01:44:20,093 --> 01:44:23,412 Speaker 24: the new company has taken us on the old old 2273 01:44:23,652 --> 01:44:26,613 Speaker 24: terms and individual agreements. 2274 01:44:27,053 --> 01:44:27,293 Speaker 3: Yep. 2275 01:44:29,412 --> 01:44:32,772 Speaker 24: This issue coming now is that based on a salary 2276 01:44:32,812 --> 01:44:37,413 Speaker 24: for forty hours a week and any time anyhow overtime 2277 01:44:37,532 --> 01:44:40,652 Speaker 24: work over and above it was taken off as pay 2278 01:44:41,973 --> 01:44:46,972 Speaker 24: paid leave right. But now in our individual agreement it 2279 01:44:46,973 --> 01:44:51,612 Speaker 24: says that there'll be no overtime paid over and above 2280 01:44:51,652 --> 01:44:52,573 Speaker 24: forty hours. 2281 01:44:52,893 --> 01:44:57,373 Speaker 21: M Yeah, and that's not not an unusual situation. 2282 01:44:57,652 --> 01:44:57,932 Speaker 22: John. 2283 01:44:59,532 --> 01:45:04,213 Speaker 21: You may have an argument here that the arrangement with 2284 01:45:04,253 --> 01:45:09,013 Speaker 21: your previous employer became part of your employment agreement. But 2285 01:45:09,053 --> 01:45:12,412 Speaker 21: I think where there's a new employer, what's in the 2286 01:45:12,452 --> 01:45:16,612 Speaker 21: contract is likely to be what's what they're going to 2287 01:45:16,612 --> 01:45:19,532 Speaker 21: stick to, So you can give it a go. But 2288 01:45:20,013 --> 01:45:24,133 Speaker 21: I wouldn't be I wouldn't be digging my heels in 2289 01:45:24,213 --> 01:45:25,253 Speaker 21: too much on that one. 2290 01:45:26,612 --> 01:45:27,412 Speaker 3: Hopefully that outs. 2291 01:45:28,652 --> 01:45:31,133 Speaker 4: Thanks very much for your phone call, So just on there, Gareth. So, 2292 01:45:31,372 --> 01:45:33,372 Speaker 4: if you're part of a company and it gets sold 2293 01:45:33,412 --> 01:45:38,612 Speaker 4: to a new buyer, new owner, do your contracts still 2294 01:45:38,652 --> 01:45:41,132 Speaker 4: remain in place or at that point do you start 2295 01:45:41,173 --> 01:45:42,493 Speaker 4: with new contracts. 2296 01:45:43,013 --> 01:45:46,772 Speaker 21: Yeah, it really depends on whether it's a sheer purchase 2297 01:45:46,973 --> 01:45:50,852 Speaker 21: or a purchase of the assets of the business. What 2298 01:45:51,133 --> 01:45:54,892 Speaker 21: normally happens is there's a new employment agreement with the 2299 01:45:54,973 --> 01:45:58,172 Speaker 21: name of the new employer, and often there slight changes 2300 01:45:58,213 --> 01:46:01,172 Speaker 21: to the terms of employment, so there might be changes 2301 01:46:01,213 --> 01:46:04,612 Speaker 21: to benefits, and often there changes to things like this 2302 01:46:04,853 --> 01:46:08,333 Speaker 21: the hours of work. You know, as I said before, 2303 01:46:08,532 --> 01:46:12,612 Speaker 21: times are tight, and I think if you're on a 2304 01:46:12,652 --> 01:46:16,172 Speaker 21: salary that kind of comes with the arrangement that sometimes 2305 01:46:16,213 --> 01:46:18,012 Speaker 21: you're going to have to work over your forty hours. 2306 01:46:18,173 --> 01:46:18,932 Speaker 3: Yeah.

Plenty of texts coming through Gareth. 2320 01:46:56,652 --> 01:46:59,532 Speaker 2: Yeah, so here goes one. We went out with the 2321 01:46:59,572 --> 01:47:02,532 Speaker 2: new boss. He paid for the first two rounds. 2322 01:47:05,572 --> 01:47:05,892 Speaker 13: Is gone. 2323 01:47:06,093 --> 01:47:09,572 Speaker 2: Yes, he called it I get to know me post 2324 01:47:09,572 --> 01:47:12,652 Speaker 2: work meeting that we had to attend. After two we 2325 01:47:12,732 --> 01:47:17,333 Speaker 2: started paying for ourselves. Things took off, a glass got broken. 2326 01:47:18,013 --> 01:47:20,692 Speaker 2: He comes back over from his mates and tells us 2327 01:47:21,372 --> 01:47:24,412 Speaker 2: we all got to go home, saying because he paid 2328 01:47:24,452 --> 01:47:27,532 Speaker 2: for the first beers. He is responsible for us. 2329 01:47:27,933 --> 01:47:28,612 Speaker 3: We told him to. 2330 01:47:28,732 --> 01:47:32,412 Speaker 2: If off he's still angry, Can your boss kick you 2331 01:47:32,452 --> 01:47:34,372 Speaker 2: out of a pub? Aren't we in charge of our 2332 01:47:34,412 --> 01:47:36,293 Speaker 2: own lives after we're off site? 2333 01:47:37,293 --> 01:47:39,692 Speaker 3: There seems a lot break next. 2334 01:47:40,093 --> 01:47:42,932 Speaker 21: Oh man, Well, I don't even know where to start 2335 01:47:43,053 --> 01:47:47,092 Speaker 21: with this one. I guess the first thing is, yeah, 2336 01:47:48,093 --> 01:47:51,972 Speaker 21: maybe don't tell your boss toforf that that's career limiting. 2337 01:47:52,093 --> 01:47:52,692 Speaker 3: Good advice. 2338 01:47:53,812 --> 01:47:58,173 Speaker 21: I think that's the advice of the day. It's really 2339 01:47:58,213 --> 01:48:01,692 Speaker 21: tricky these days, and I don't think it was a 2340 01:48:01,732 --> 01:48:04,093 Speaker 21: great idea for the boss to take people out to 2341 01:48:04,213 --> 01:48:09,092 Speaker 21: a pub if there weren't clear expectations in the beginning. 2342 01:48:10,572 --> 01:48:17,572 Speaker 21: These days, employees aren't treated like adults often, and employers 2343 01:48:18,652 --> 01:48:20,572 Speaker 21: aren't allowed to do the sort of things that they 2344 01:48:20,692 --> 01:48:23,732 Speaker 21: used to be allowed to do, And so we see 2345 01:48:23,772 --> 01:48:30,053 Speaker 21: a lot of Christmas parties being canceled parties, if you 2346 01:48:30,093 --> 01:48:34,492 Speaker 21: can call it that, with no alcohol. So this situation 2347 01:48:34,652 --> 01:48:39,612 Speaker 21: is a recipe for disaster. I think these employees should 2348 01:48:39,692 --> 01:48:44,732 Speaker 21: be quite lucky that they're not facing disciplinary action, and 2349 01:48:44,812 --> 01:48:47,852 Speaker 21: I think everybody should just chalk it up to a 2350 01:48:47,893 --> 01:48:49,852 Speaker 21: bad idea and try and forget about it. 2351 01:48:50,253 --> 01:48:52,892 Speaker 2: So if you're in a location so you've been out 2352 01:48:52,893 --> 01:48:56,732 Speaker 2: with the boss though, and the party initially starts there, 2353 01:48:57,053 --> 01:49:00,372 Speaker 2: and if the boss clearly goes it's over. Now those 2354 01:49:00,452 --> 01:49:02,892 Speaker 2: few two bears and it sounds like he's over at 2355 01:49:02,893 --> 01:49:05,013 Speaker 2: another table because he says he came over from his 2356 01:49:05,093 --> 01:49:07,333 Speaker 2: other mates, so I'm not sure if he did this, 2357 01:49:07,853 --> 01:49:09,933 Speaker 2: But he goes, that's over. That was the drink, that 2358 01:49:10,013 --> 01:49:12,933 Speaker 2: was the get together we wanted to have. I'm not 2359 01:49:12,933 --> 01:49:15,772 Speaker 2: paying for any more drinks. He goes over to another table. 2360 01:49:16,532 --> 01:49:20,452 Speaker 2: His employees still his responsibility at that point, or has 2361 01:49:20,492 --> 01:49:23,972 Speaker 2: he shut down the function even though they're both still 2362 01:49:24,013 --> 01:49:25,173 Speaker 2: in the same establishment. 2363 01:49:25,692 --> 01:49:30,253 Speaker 21: Yeah, I think the risk is that there's a reasonably 2364 01:49:30,333 --> 01:49:34,892 Speaker 21: high risk that if anything goes wrong, the venue will 2365 01:49:35,013 --> 01:49:39,212 Speaker 21: blame it on the company, and the employees could claim 2366 01:49:39,572 --> 01:49:42,532 Speaker 21: that it was still a work event. It started as 2367 01:49:42,532 --> 01:49:46,293 Speaker 21: a work event. Alcohol was provided. You know, best practice 2368 01:49:46,333 --> 01:49:49,173 Speaker 21: in a situation like this would be to say we're 2369 01:49:49,173 --> 01:49:51,213 Speaker 21: going to go out, We're going to have a couple 2370 01:49:51,293 --> 01:49:54,692 Speaker 21: of drinks, and then everybody leaves. Then if you go 2371 01:49:54,732 --> 01:49:58,853 Speaker 21: to a different venue without your boss, I think everybody's 2372 01:49:58,893 --> 01:50:02,013 Speaker 21: on much safer territory. But the fact that stayed in 2373 01:50:02,053 --> 01:50:02,772 Speaker 21: the same pub. 2374 01:50:04,053 --> 01:50:06,772 Speaker 3: Yeah, good around. 2375 01:50:06,812 --> 01:50:11,013 Speaker 4: Yeah, don't tell your boss to off from the number one. 2376 01:50:10,412 --> 01:50:12,932 Speaker 3: I like it says we told the boss. 2377 01:50:14,853 --> 01:50:16,333 Speaker 21: It sounds like there was an insurrection. 2378 01:50:17,853 --> 01:50:20,932 Speaker 3: Siah. You've got a question for Gareth, right. 2379 01:50:21,452 --> 01:50:21,652 Speaker 14: Yeah. 2380 01:50:21,692 --> 01:50:27,093 Speaker 7: I work in sales and quite any specialty, and I 2381 01:50:27,093 --> 01:50:30,412 Speaker 7: believe I've got quite an intense restraint of trade in 2382 01:50:30,412 --> 01:50:31,092 Speaker 7: my contract. 2383 01:50:31,173 --> 01:50:32,692 Speaker 19: So it sees that they can stop me. 2384 01:50:33,173 --> 01:50:34,972 Speaker 12: Worn't for a competitor for twelve months. 2385 01:50:35,093 --> 01:50:36,812 Speaker 20: How unenforceable is that in New Zealand. 2386 01:50:37,253 --> 01:50:43,732 Speaker 21: Yeah, that's a fantastic question, Sarah. There's this idea out 2387 01:50:43,772 --> 01:50:49,133 Speaker 21: there that restraints aren't enforceable and that's not correct. And 2388 01:50:49,173 --> 01:50:53,372 Speaker 21: then there are some pretty onerous restraints in employment agreements 2389 01:50:54,612 --> 01:50:58,932 Speaker 21: that clearly go too far. So the test that the 2390 01:50:58,933 --> 01:51:02,053 Speaker 21: court will look at is is it reasonable and is 2391 01:51:02,093 --> 01:51:07,892 Speaker 21: it necessary to protect a legitimate interest that your employer has. 2392 01:51:08,853 --> 01:51:13,853 Speaker 21: If you're in a niche role and you've got relationships 2393 01:51:13,853 --> 01:51:17,812 Speaker 21: with suppliers, relationships with customers, and it would take a 2394 01:51:17,853 --> 01:51:21,532 Speaker 21: long time for them to protect those and you could 2395 01:51:21,532 --> 01:51:25,853 Speaker 21: take advantage of them, potentially that restraint could be enforceable, 2396 01:51:26,213 --> 01:51:29,492 Speaker 21: But it really comes down to the particular circumstances of 2397 01:51:30,452 --> 01:51:35,852 Speaker 21: each case. Twelve months is definitely at the upper end 2398 01:51:35,933 --> 01:51:40,533 Speaker 21: of what would be considered reasonable. Generally three months is reasonable, 2399 01:51:40,933 --> 01:51:43,652 Speaker 21: six months is starting to get up there, and twelve 2400 01:51:43,732 --> 01:51:46,692 Speaker 21: months is at the extreme end. But there are cases 2401 01:51:46,732 --> 01:51:49,132 Speaker 21: where twelve months has been found to be reasonable. 2402 01:51:51,013 --> 01:51:52,852 Speaker 3: Hopefully, thanks Sarah. 2403 01:51:53,133 --> 01:51:55,532 Speaker 4: Just on that twelve months, I mean, would there is 2404 01:51:55,572 --> 01:51:58,452 Speaker 4: there sometimes a caveat or part of that deal that 2405 01:51:58,492 --> 01:52:00,572 Speaker 4: they pay you out something so that at least you 2406 01:52:00,652 --> 01:52:02,092 Speaker 4: can survive for that twelve months. 2407 01:52:03,013 --> 01:52:08,852 Speaker 21: And often those extended restraints only apply to peace on 2408 01:52:09,812 --> 01:52:15,972 Speaker 21: relatively good incomes. As I say, twelve months is quite extreme, 2409 01:52:17,253 --> 01:52:22,732 Speaker 21: and that can't prevent you from working full stop. It 2410 01:52:22,772 --> 01:52:25,492 Speaker 21: will just prevent you from working in a way that 2411 01:52:25,572 --> 01:52:29,293 Speaker 21: would be unfairly competing with your previous employer. 2412 01:52:29,492 --> 01:52:30,933 Speaker 3: What can the previous employer do? 2413 01:52:31,612 --> 01:52:34,972 Speaker 21: Though, they can file proceedings, they can seek an injunction, 2414 01:52:36,173 --> 01:52:40,093 Speaker 21: so the court could actually issue an injunction preventing you 2415 01:52:40,173 --> 01:52:42,933 Speaker 21: from from doing whatever it is that's in breach of 2416 01:52:43,013 --> 01:52:48,492 Speaker 21: the restraint. You know, generally these things are resolved before 2417 01:52:48,532 --> 01:52:51,532 Speaker 21: that point because once it goes to court, everybody loses 2418 01:52:51,572 --> 01:52:57,052 Speaker 21: except the lawyers. Yeah, yeah, you know, with a restraint 2419 01:52:57,053 --> 01:52:59,213 Speaker 21: like that. I think it's a very good idea to 2420 01:52:59,293 --> 01:53:02,452 Speaker 21: get some legal advice so you know where you stand. 2421 01:53:02,692 --> 01:53:04,892 Speaker 4: Yep, great stuff.

My question is I resigned 2435 01:53:42,532 --> 01:53:48,092 Speaker 9: from a position late last year, and what I did 2436 01:53:48,213 --> 01:53:51,813 Speaker 9: after I left I went to make contact with previous 2437 01:53:52,652 --> 01:53:59,692 Speaker 9: managers that I worked under, and so from working with 2438 01:53:59,812 --> 01:54:02,812 Speaker 9: them previously, I asked if it would be okay if 2439 01:54:02,853 --> 01:54:05,572 Speaker 9: I use theok for future for a future reference will 2440 01:54:05,612 --> 01:54:12,892 Speaker 9: work at that point? Yeah, that's that's fine. When I 2441 01:54:12,933 --> 01:54:17,173 Speaker 9: actually resigned, I had a new area manager come in 2442 01:54:17,812 --> 01:54:19,892 Speaker 9: and that was one of the reasons the way I thought, 2443 01:54:20,053 --> 01:54:24,892 Speaker 9: I'm out of here, I'm just I'm going and this 2444 01:54:25,013 --> 01:54:30,932 Speaker 9: particular person who only just gained that position, this person's 2445 01:54:30,973 --> 01:54:34,772 Speaker 9: actually gone to these people who I used to work 2446 01:54:34,812 --> 01:54:39,333 Speaker 9: for and it has asked them not to supply any references. 2447 01:54:39,493 --> 01:54:40,133 Speaker 3: That's a big one. 2448 01:54:40,133 --> 01:54:42,493 Speaker 4: And sorry, Josh, we're almost running out of time, but Gareth, 2449 01:54:42,573 --> 01:54:43,333 Speaker 4: can they do that? 2450 01:54:44,653 --> 01:54:49,293 Speaker 21: Yeah, they most probably can. An employer is under no 2451 01:54:49,453 --> 01:54:53,653 Speaker 21: legal obligation to provide you with a reference. They do 2452 01:54:53,772 --> 01:54:56,453 Speaker 21: need to confirm that you work there, but they don't 2453 01:54:56,453 --> 01:54:58,892 Speaker 21: have to provide you with a reference. And a lot 2454 01:54:58,933 --> 01:55:02,413 Speaker 21: of businesses have a policy not to provide references and 2455 01:55:02,573 --> 01:55:06,892 Speaker 21: only to provide certificates of service. So yep, potentially they could, 2456 01:55:07,173 --> 01:55:07,812 Speaker 21: they could do this. 2457 01:55:08,413 --> 01:55:12,012 Speaker 4: Yeah, very good, Gareth, great to catch up again.
