I've got two emails so far from Richturd and decided to open
the last one up and see what the spruke is about.

Saw this first and thought it wasn't a bad retainer even after
NZ's ridiculously prohibitive tax, considering the Kiwi will be
strengthening over the next 12 months -

Payment
On commencement NZ$130,000
On completion of 1 year of service NZ$133,900
On completion of 2 years of service NZ$137,917
So I'm thinking ok, where's the actual salary?

Scrolling down I hit this -

Bonuses
Sign-On Bonus
NZ$24,000. Pay back in full if leave within 2 years of payment.

Note: The sign on bonus may be used to cover relocation expenses. On production of receipts for
expenses incurred, expenses will be reimbursed and the reimbursement will be tax free. Total
reimbursement may not exceed the value of the bonus.

Annual Retention Bonus
Guaranteed - NZ$18,000 per annum.
Performance based – NZ$0-$12,000 ($6,000 at target).
Dependent on performance against KPIs.
Paid after end of financial year.
$6,000 if KPIs achieved at target
$12,000 if KPIs achieved at stretch
Sliding scale (pro-rata for partially achieved KPIs)
Pro-rata for time in role (must be in role for 6 months or more of financial year to be eligible).

Pay back in full if leave within 2 years of payment.
I thought fcuk off - what's this "pay back in full if leave within
2 years" bull****? Scrolling down I couldn't find anything at all
about annual salary... and that's when it hit me that $130k
WAS the salary!

You'd have to be an absolute financially-suicidal d!ckhead to
even CONSIDER applying for this job!

I stopped reading and deleted the file. I wonder what moron
would be silly enough to go for it, especially anyone presently
sitting atop a high tax-free salary.
