First Day in Job
Hi everyone. Just thought I'd let you know that I have done my first days work here in Oz. Got a job in a hair salon, only part time but its a start. The owner phoned me last week and asked me to come in today as she would be away and need cover for the salon. I was the only stylist in the place :scared: and her mum (not a hairdresser) was around to help answer the phone and be there for when I went on my lunch.
It went well and I am going to stick it out, and hope for more hours. Just in case any hairderssers are interested, pay was $16.74 an hour and I got $123.55, for 7.5 hours work, after she took $2 off for tax.
Only a small salon but its a start.

Well done snips.
Agree with your attitude....have to start somewhere.
Sounds like they may need you anyway so could work out okay.

Congrats for the new job. Was wondering if its a well paid profession over there in Oz. What will be your advise for someone want to get into HairDressing.
