JOB CHANGE 2020

Garth from Awapuni

According to Seven Sharp last month this is the time of the year that is most popular for people changing JOBS.

After working as a Jims franchisee for 15 years now I have to say this is the best way to get a work life balance.I now am seeing many of my neighbors being told there is no one available to look after their lawns,I am asking for your help here in Palmy.I need to find another franchisee to help service all the work round here.According to the stats there was over 500 disapointed clients last year and that would equate to $246,000 worth of income someone could of had.Jims has an opportunity for anyone who wants to get out in the fresh air and still earn a good living.If you know of any one who would like a change in career and would like to work for themselves forward me their details and I'll pass them on to our support people.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
