Job change starting tomorrow. After 19 and a half years pulling spanners on large heavy earthmoving equipment here and overseas for dealerships and various companies, it's time to get off them. It has taken its toll with stuffed back, knees, neck, ankles and hands.
So permanent supervision and planning is now necessary. Going to miss fixing stuff but a change is necessary if I'm to have any quality of life.

trainee loco driver. Cant beat 3 locos with v16 twin turbos pulling 3500tonnes up a hill, but going to dimboola a couple of times a week can be quite depressing...

I've never had a stable job, just odd jobs.

It's really hard, because I'm 22 and employers are turned off from my lack of experience.

I was hoping by going to Tafe my employment prospects would increase, but it hasn't so far. Just recently got my Forklift ticket aswell.

Oh well I wont give up. Getting sick of being on Centrelink, and feeling like a bum.

Fingers crossed because I have found bugger all jobs so far

Tuesday? As in April fools day?

I hope the interview is in the afternoon (jokes stop at midday). Good luck with it anyway.

I've been in IT (government, private, and back in government) for around 15 years or so, and I have no degree, so if I can do it, you can too. I'm actually looking at getting recognised quals for what I do (Project Management/Business Analysis) - but it's more of a "just in case" instead of a real need to have a bit of paper.
