Rhinorebel Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Newcastle sux ass!! I had to live there for 8 months and it was bogan central!! It has changed a bit since then, but the bogan part is the same. It is like Summernats only every night!! If you won't do fuli sic skids for them, they will pelt your car with bottles (some not empty!!) I think you should stay where you are happiest, and if Brisbane fulfills your needs with friends and job, why move. This whole moving to further your career gambit is why so many people are unhappy or divorced. I personally love Brisbane and I have lived in Sydney, Melbourne and Newcastle for work. Unless it is going to make you a millionaire, I would stay put.

Ryan.R34 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 I closed my business down on the Gold Coast after 8 Years to go work for a Company based in Sydney, it was crazy money doing stainless work on Refrigertated Mining Skids. It sent me all over N.S.W out Bush and in City but I didn't last 8 months, I had to chuck it in and come home, After a while the cash didn't mean shit and just wanted to get back to friends, family and my dog Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/157731-decisions-decisions/page/2/#findComment-2930774 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demoniak Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 ok guys i thought i better update this. i am not going anywhere. after sitting down ansd weighing up the pros and cons, it just wasnt worth the extra money to move down there. at the end of the day being with my family means to much to me to move away. thanks for everyone opinions, i appreciate everyone of them Ive been in the same boat.. Unless you got one of those traveling bugs where you cant stay in one place longer then 1 month then i would hang where you are now. I mean i have changed my position 3 times in the past year, however its in the governement and they shuffle you around more then cards.. But you get to see and do new stuff and move around a little ( within a 100km radius of your place of residence) If your keen for extra bucks//new position why not ask them to move you sideways//up? But yeah.. if you hadnt of made a decision i was going to tell you to write up a "pros & cons" list. I think i would miss my family and friends after a while.. sms and email does not equate to hugs and sore heads from drinkin with them in the flesh Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/157731-decisions-decisions/page/2/#findComment-2941170 Share on other sites More sharing options...
