Elusion welcomes 1st year apprentice Jake to the team.

Patrick Koot from Elusion Electrical Ltd

Morena
After sending out our last level 4 update I had completely forgotten to let everyone know we have grown. Patrick has been so busy this year and 5 day weeks became 6 which became 7 so something had to give.

We decided the best way to employ someone and know they would do it the Elusion way was to teach them from the very beginning and take on a "first year apprentice" . Around the time we realised we needed help, Jake phoned us for some work experience, and helped convince us we needed him. We are glad to say he is now Elusion's official first employee .

For our customers security wise, Jake can only work under direct supervision from Patrick so won't turn up without him. You also have the reassurance you will always have our sign written van and team in uniforms to help confirm they are who they are. You can ask at any time also for their electrical registration cards and drivers license for photo ID.

Pip and Otto are loving the extra attention twice a day, Patrick's load is a little lighter and our customers can expect the same high quality service.

If you have any urgent level 4 jobs you won't get to meet Jake he will be back on board in level 3!

Remember under level 4, power, heating and cooking is classed as essential.

Stay warm, stay safe and stay well
Patrick , Shan and Jake

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
