datsun-jay Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 Hey all, Myself and a couple of friends are heading to OZ early next year, have our visa'a and all sorted......Just wondering whats the work sitiation like over there at the moment?, is it the same as the rest of the world? in termoil?, Were heading to perth first! Cheers, Jay. Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted November 18, 2008 Administrators Posted November 18, 2008 haha Jay, typical Irish person heads straight for Perth. I must have met over 100 Irish people who all tell me they have been to Perth. I have never been myself, I'm sure its quite nice. Not sure about jobs in Australia at the moment as I'm in Dublin, I'm lucky in that the company I work for is still doing quite well over here, so hopefully with that I have some job security. What are you doing with the 2+2 while you are in Australia? Do you need someone to take care of it lol. Cheers, Gavin Quote
datsun-jay Posted November 18, 2008 Author Posted November 18, 2008 Ha I was thinking about selling it before I went but decided to keep her, She'll be locked up in the garage for the year while im away Well I still have lots of work here, always wanted to go to OZ, recently split up with a long term girlfriend, and a few friends are heading over anyway so now is my chance. Must meet up sometime, supposed to meet Ozy to have a look at his car at some stage too. Jay Quote
C.A.R. Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 Still enough work in Perth/WA to keep most people employed. We're not in recession... yet. What sort of job you after, Jay? Quote
datsun-jay Posted November 19, 2008 Author Posted November 19, 2008 After anything really, im a coded welder, work mostly in pharmasuiticle plants over here welding stainless and carbon pipes, but fabricate too and anything along those lines would be perfect! Quote
sco_aus Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 There is plenty of work for someone with those skills, right Lurch? Quote
C.A.R. Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 Nice. You won't be out of work in WA then. Plenty of work for coaded pipe welder's/fitters in WA. I hope you like the heat... Quote
sco_aus Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 He's from Ireland, i'm sure he can't wait. Quote
Hunter Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 Due to Lurch's contempt and hostility towards CAPITAL LETTERS, I am re-writing this post as the last one was deleted. Just walk up the street in Kalgoorlie in Western Australia. You will have a job by the 4th pub you visit. That is if you want to work in an Underground or Surface mine. If you can drive a ZED you can drive a MINE TRUCK. P.S. I Apologise for any capitals used in the above quote, I feel they were essential. Quote
C.A.R. Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 Have a cry Princess. Since you wish to post this in public Hunter, so be it. I asked you politely in a PM to repost it in a more legible & readable way. Pressing the caps lock button off really isn't a major issue, as is retyping it. Unless it takes you 3 years to construct a sentence... Having Caps on - in regards to posting on forums - has always been considered as 'yelling'. It also looks very tacky. And yes I am being pedantic, but everyone else seems to be able to post messages in a reasonable manner... Quote
benny Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 cmon guys no need for the hostility lol you know what they say......fighting on the internet is like competing in the special olympics, if you win or lose you're still retarded.

Hunter Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 Just makes me laugh. I have already got my 40cents and rang someone who cares lol. Anyway.......Just go to Kalgoorlie you will find a job easily just by going to the pubs and asking around. Quote

Its SMS speak that really sends me off the edge though lol. Yet I use common internet acronyms like lol and lmao all the time . Quote
