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.

-D

:) Looks like all have to look into prostitution.

don't do it Damo, you may starve to death!!

Ugh, fine :blush: .

Get me a job with you then. I did apply for the police force twice, "not enough life experience" both times. Even had a family friend (who is quite high up in the detective ranks) write a letter asking them why they dont recruit people like me if they are desperate for new cops? Yeah. /rant

sorry bud, just jokes.

seriously, thats the last thing you need.....just creates too many cowboys & heroes in the industry.

Do a tafe course Damo and apply for a licence once you're accepted into the course.

If you have any criminal convictions though, don't bother cause licencing laws are very strict now

Lol i have too much life experience :) would make a good copper :P

My ex-wife often use to ask me why I didn't become a cop, and some friends.

I had the knowledge, the training, and the desire. But I knew I'd be booted out because I'm "old school".

I couldn't take shit from mouthy punks. I'd be like Martin Riggs in my methods. I hate the soft cock approach some cops use today. Bullshit red tape, rights and all ... the crims have more rights than the victims! I'd be a bit 'rough' for sure.

I'd be best for a desk job in the force, but I'd hate that shit too :)

I've got family/friends who are cops and I couldn't do what they do without pushing the envelope.

:ermm:

Im an Electrical/Communications/Security draftsman. Sounds like you have a tough job. Do you run your own business?

I run the business for the two owners. I've been there from day dot. Started the business for them and been on board since ... its been 9 years now and we turnover over $1M each year. They know nothing about running the business and freely admit to relying on me heavily. I also ran my (ex) mother-in-law's business for a few years.

When I'm ready, I'll leave here and start my own business for drafting work and also business/management consultation.
