Another mate atm is at cape Preston iron mine. Just off the coast. Spoke to him for a good couple of hrs last night on the net about new concerns n a few things others have told me. Sounds like a good mine to go to, better than first thought lol, so it looks like that's where I'll be heading. Work for a year or so n save for Europe n a deposit on an investment property down here. I have not planned how many yrs I'll be away overseas but was going to go back to mines after I got back. But maybe this sap stuff or even something similar could be on the cards..atm carpentry has taken its toll on my back. Framing for 4yrs is balls..but Ill get my ticket so I'll have that at least if all else fails.. Edited 16/02/12 06:12 AM by Shyfrd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bigger the stuff up the bigger the bonus. That's how it works here, anyhow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 2m 27d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 16/02/12 07:29 AM Share Posted 16/02/12 07:29 AM (edited) I started a cadetship with the government.. Also went insane.. Hold a meeting to pick a suitable meeting date for future meetings.. Now we just contract back to them and we actually get stuff done... And on time.. I really feel sorry for any IT professional working for the gov though.. I swear people would deliberately f*ck their computers to get out of work..Where I am it's more like 1/4 of our typical rate.. but overtime is paid at 1/2 and when you're doing 30 or so extra hours a fortnight that adds up..
