Default Hubby back on track... He's got a job

PANIC OVER... Hubby starts a new job next Wednesday. Thank goodness.

See it's easy to get work here, don't know what all the fuss is about.

Must say though it's his trade. No one seems to be qualified here in Perth to do his job? (Aussies I mean) He is a CNC Operator and a Wood Machinist, so any of you wondering if you'll get work when you arrive, if you can do this then you're laughing.

Money is crap mind you!

Forgot to add.. (edit!) that it's a 40k drive to and from work, but hey, who can be choosy !!!!????

Why don't you set up training courses to teach others how to operate the CNC lathe, you could contact all the companies that have them to send their future operators on your.... learn the "CNC lathe in 4 weeks" only 3000 dollars plus tax.
At the end of the course you present them with your pass certificate that you got printed up at "Quick Print ".
eg. 30 clients @ 3000 each = 90,000 dollars.
It beats working for a living.
PS. dont forget my 10% I will be in Perth mid march.
All the best.

Seems like a good idea to me.

Niche market, few skilled and in demand too.

Might be worth checking out Janey
