MR AVERAGE
hi everyone
just a quick answer to my outlook on life in oz(if we get our PR granted). i am a painter by trade and am normally up at 04.45 on average in morning for work(travel to london and surounding area a lot). then return by about 6 at night.from what i have read on BE oz work is similar.i have no problems with working these hours in oz.we are not looking to make our working life easier (would be nice if it were) just to give our children a better enviroment,but once they have grown up and moved on then enjoy our own time and slow down a bit.is this realistic?hope so as we coming over hopefully anyway! any feedback greatfully taken onboard thanks us 5 :thumbsup: |
Re: MR AVERAGE
How can a painter get PR? Seriously, anyone can paint! Is it that easy to get into OZ?

I would imagine that he has to have the necessary qualifications and experience that everyone else has to have regardless of what their particular skill is. The in demand list is very varied but thankfully 'patronising techie bods' is not yet on it so good luck with your application!;) |
Re: MR AVERAGE
I just fail to see how there can be a shortage of people for menial work that any thicko could do when with real professions they pick and choose!

The guy just asked for some feedback about Aus lifestyle, I don't think it warrants being insulted by you!:frown: |

Good Luck:) Julie. x |

Heaven forbid people stop painting houses, dealing with our waste, cleaning our hospitals, etc. At least some of us recognize the importance of all walks of life and jobs without feeling the need to look down on others. |
Re: MR AVERAGE
To try and answer the original question - it will depend! You obviously have a good work ethic and will likely make a great sucess of yourself over here if you continue with that. My mate is a painter/decorater and usually starts at 6.00am and finishes at 4pm - unless they have a rush on to get things finished (which at the moment is all the time as they have plenty of work) in which case it's an extra hour or two.
Best of luck. |

I will admit to reporting this poster several times over the last half an hour. Hopefully the post by Sue means he's been banned. If not I'll continue to report him as long as continues to be such an ass. |

Good on you mods for deleting the thread he tried to put a couple minutes ago. I just happened to spot it before it was deleted.

Where was he (geographicaly sp*)and why was he on here? :confused: Anway, nice one Sue :thumbsup: My theory is that the people who do this are having a really hard time in their real lives. Don't necessarily think it's just men either. I don't mind if they pick on me, (well, obviously, I DO), I would just ignore anyone who was rude or abusive to me. I get annoyed when they are being rude and abusive to anyone who's hit a hard patch in the application for a visa, house selling., etc. It's also annoying if they pick on new members. I remember how uncertain I was when I first joined the site, and coming across someone like that would have put me off posting. Who knows? He or she may be back later in another guise. I'm wondering if you can just keep joining from the same email address and whether it's the username or the email address that's banned. Maybe a Mod can tell us that. Anyhow, it was nice to see how quickly Sue acted when we all hit our report button. Mxxx |

Another way to look at it might be - if we remain in the UK, will we be able to slow down a bit once the kids have moved out? If the answer is "yes", then I think that you'll be able to do the same over here. Bear in mind though, that the costs of moving a family are significant... So you should spend a fair bit of time planning everything as best you can. cheers |
Re: MR AVERAGE
Painters serve an apprenticeship in Aus and a good painter is worth gold. Just try and find one.
Sitting behind a desk fiddling on a computer on forums and other things is not very productive. Tradespeople make the world go round and we can live without computers but boy its difficult with a blocked loo, no electricity and no transport. So Mr Average you can have a nice life here. :D |

In fact a couple of self employed decorators I know back home make a fair bit more money than the joiners/ electricians etc. that I know |
Re: MR AVERAGE
