Poll: Do you agree with Domino’s new ‘tip your driver’ feature?

Ripu Bhatia Reporter from Community News

Domino’s is under fire after adding a tipping feature to its online ordering system, with critics saying the pizza chain should “pay staff properly” instead of relying on customer generosity.

But Domino's says the system helps keep its workers safe and there is no obligation to tip.

Domino’s is under fire after adding a tipping feature to its online ordering system, with critics saying the pizza chain should “pay staff properly” instead of relying on customer generosity.

But Domino's says the system helps keep its workers safe and there is no obligation to tip.

The new feature gives customers the option to pay a fixed amount or choose their own tip for their “delivery expert” before completing payment.

The move has been met with outrage on social media where some have said Domino’s should “pay staff properly instead”.

I know it's hit some families hard. I used my "spare" time sewing face masks for my family. When my friends saw them, they said " I want some of them too". So am selling them for just $8 or 2 for $15 + postage or pick up from Sunnyhills. It's been a great way to use up the material I have stored for many years. And for every mask sold, I am donating $1 to Howick Croquet Club. Please let me know how many you would like. I have attached a photo of me and my granddaughter on the morning of the 2nd lockdown. I have used up all of the bright material Issy & I are wearing but still have plenty of options. Looking forward to helping you keep "covered" from COVID.

Sky Tower to fly white flags for mental health

Ripu Bhatia Reporter from Community News

Three white flags will fly from the very top of the Sky Tower this week, to raise awareness about mental health in the construction industry.

SkyCity spokesperson Arron Money said the construction industry has one of the highest rates of suicide in the commercial sector in New Zealand.

“Flying the flags from the top of the Sky Tower is our way of acknowledging the problem and empowering the industry to do something about it. The flags are a visual reminder for workers to stop and have the courage to ask a mate if they are alright,” he said.

Fly the Flag is a campaign created by Mates in Construction - an organisation established to combat the high rate of suicide among construction workers in New Zealand.

As a mark of respect for the families who have lost loved ones to suicide, the Sky Tower will also be lit as large ribbon with colours of orange and gold on September 10 to support World Suicide Prevention Day.

Any one interested to have this washing machine, just message me.
Bought this just more than a year ago from a previous owner. In fairly good condition with all electronic parts intact except for a mechanical problem which was caused by the exceeded washload KG capacity when I tried washing beddings the last time i used it.
I think this can be fixed by a handyman or someone expert in washing machine. But can also be disassembled to get other working parts
