Work Rant!

[RubyRS4]

Man, am I going to be busy next week.

I've got 4 CAD projects to start and complete ... a Locality Survey for ETSA to draw up in CAD ... not to mention a MYOB Audit and new file creation in preparation for the new financial year ... then there's the EOY tax time shit and bonus calculations to work out for our consultants! And I'm squeezing in a trip interstate soon.

Good thing they pay me well ... I'll need alot of booze to get thru the week!

Heh u should work for me I got 1000 odd things on aswell. Always complicated that Im a subcontractor for a national company who subcontracts for another multinational. We got monkeys in india always stuffing things up, more sub divisions than worth counting. Im doing security audits, decomissioning/recomissioning rack units, servers, domain controllers, fixing blackberries, laptops, desktops, doing tape backups with a pool of 100 terabytes (700 odd tapes in the pool), fixing obscure softwares with their support team in india (eurgh) as well as replacing all the printer drivers on 3 sites (not including stuff at Olympic dam.)

Oh the JOYS of subcontracting

Got in early at work this morning. Locked my office door and put up a 'f**k off' sign (read: do not disturb).

Got alot of the workload for the day out of the way so far. Had a meeting this morning which I cancelled. Got no time to talk to clients or the business owners ... they can wait until I'm ready

Sadly there arent really any entry level jobs in the mines. They usually recruit from all over the world and get the best people for the job ;\ If you got a degree in ore refinery, mining, OH&S or anything like that, theyd probably look at ya. In any case if u guys want a job at the mines, check seek.com.au cause thats where all the jobs get advertised.
