TIL there's no legal minimum age of employment in NZ. Technically this makes child labour legal... But also only technically...

@JDabknee This has to be someone you actually know. Also 123457 suggests they did 123456 but got banned

I guess I'm just... Not getting any sleep tonight... Okay

Wheeeee, I love anxiety attacks so much. Especially when they stop me sleeping!

@not_fake_jack Oh okay... I'd heard some *things* about people getting fined for working on cars on their own property so I wasn't sure

@crk5 Thankyou

@punkoutnz For sure... And becoming an owner in that complex is *not cheap*
