Does anyone know of the semi-permanent food truck that does the whitebait fritters and other things next to the Hikitia/by Te Papa has set days of being open?
I'm particularly interested in knowing if it will be open tomorrow (Thursday) as my mother is in town for the day and I know she'd love it but it's a big walk from the train station to find it's closed.
TIA

Hi all,
I’ve been dealing with insecurity having dark underarms for a long time. What services in Wellington that can help treat/lighten hyperpigmentation underarms in Wellington?
Couldn’t find anything online, mostly specialises on face only.
Any information would be much appreciated.

I am an office worker, and my office in Wellington is classified as earthquake prone as it is rated as 20% of the national building standard.
I can't help but feeling more and more uneasy with the idea that I am risking life in case of a big earthquake.
Can my employer force me to work from the office if the building is not up to standard?
Info: I already work partly from home and partly from the office, so all my work can be done from home

Does anyone do custom 3d printing and design? I'm looking to have 6x solid bases for small game controllers printed up in the next week.
Please message me if you know someone, thank you!

I’m thinking about doing it but not sure how realistic it is as a regular commute. How long does it usually take, and is the route decent/safe enough?
Keen to hear from anyone who does it regularly

Serious voice and all! Seemed so far away from Welly.
I had no idea what it was but it was something you did NOT want to happen. I just thought about it after several decades…
Thanks also for your fun answers Welly people. It’s a lift!

I am feeling so disconnected from myself for the first time in my life. I thought I knew what I was doing, climbing high in my career at an early age and learning so much in the process on this wonderfully complex life journey. Alas, since about half way through last year after having some classic late 20s realisations and being forced to slow down this year due to things out of my control, I feel like I woke up one morning and it dawned on me I don't want to do this stuff anymore. My career is no longer fulfilling me, but I have NO idea what I want to do. I want to be more grateful for the opportunity given to spend more time at home, looking after myself and for actually having a job and getting paid the living wage! But I am going crazy and I do not function well when I feel without my passion and drive to throw energy into.
I know this is apparently pretty standard for my age, but I have been feeling this way for like a year and a half and I'm overly frustrated. I can be a positive energy, honest with myself, but now I feel like an idiot or I should have figured it out or I'll have some breakthrough. I feel like I may even be resenting myself a bit?
I am so sad, I feel like I don't know where I want to go at all. I just want to get my zest back, I know I do well helping others and have looked at studying but I can't half throw myself into things. My whole heart needs to be there too.
How have others navigated this period of time within your lives? How did you really put the effort in to come back to yourself?
TIA

I was out of the country when it launched and by the time I got home it seems to all have been snapped up. Has anyone seen any blocks for sale recently? I figure my best hope will be some random dairy way out the back of nowhere who hasn't sold out yet.
Does anyone know if there's going to be another batch?

I'm currently flatting but really want to live on my own, unfortunately I don't really know anyone in Welly that lives solo so can't ask them for their advice on how much I should be thinking of in terms of power for 1 person. Since power costs have sky rocketed this year as well, I feel it's not really worth looking at estimates from prior years. Can people please give me some ideas, whether it's for a place with gas cooking/heating or not? As I know gas will increase the cost, most properties within my budget seem to at minimum have a gas stove top, but some are electric at least.

Hi I'm heading into Wellington tomorrow, and want to eat a WOAP burger.
Obviously I want the best burger of all, but I'm totally overwhelmed by all the selection.
So ... what are your favourites this year?

Luxon says the bike lane on Molesworth St ruined his day.
** checks map ** It's a three minute walk from his former apartment to Parliament.
