Returning Items to Mitre 10

Thought you might be interested in our experience.....We were bought a gift for Christmas, but we already had the same item. Obviously, we couldn't ask for the receipt as this was a present, so we went to Mitre 10, explained our dilemma and was refused point blank, any help. This item was $25., so quite a lot of money to 'loose'. No receipt/No refund/No bending the rules. It will be interesting to see if the Manager's Manager does phone us back..... We've been in this situation before with Bunnings and K Mart. Their Customer Service was exceptional (Australian companies, perhaps more flexible?) Needless to say, despite being previously good customers of Mitre 10, we will never be going there to shop again. Just a simple heads up, if you find yourself in the same position.

Just what is it ....

Peter from Kamo

In less than 3 weeks I will be a pensioner. So, what shall I do with myself? I saw an ad on Neighbourly by an outfit called English Language Partners a few weeks ago. Asking for volunteers.

I saw an ad on Neighbourly by an outfit called English Language Partners a few weeks ago. Asking for volunteers. Teaching English to new immigrants I expect. Now, I have a post-grad diploma in education (that's a bit more than an M.A. where I come from), I spent years teaching German as a Second Language to Vietnamese Boat People, I have specialist phonetics training. I am familiar with the Berlitz method.
I've taken people with no knowledge of the language through to university entrance level ....

I thought: I'll give these guys a ring. I might be able to help, I don't need extra pay ...

... well, I have barely started to introduce myself when the woman goes "Do you have a certificate in teaching English as a Second Language?"

No, I don't. (but I probably have better experience and teaching skills than many of the people working for you -- I didn't say that, though).
She just fobbed me off: "Well in that case I cannot employ you." Click.


I wasn't actually looking for EMPLOYMENT. I was offering to volunteer. This was a real Simpsons moment for me .... doh! Ah well. Sadly, I know I'd be no good at picking up trash by the roadside, my knees would not allow me. Ho hum. At times the ignorant arrogance of some Kiwis is just mind-boggling to me.

Wanting to buy a (semi) commercial ride-on mower

Tunney from Central Whangarei

Preferably one that is not too old. This is needed by a small rural school in the Far North. We have a field just a little smaller than a footy field and small areas around the school buildings.
Thanks
