What sell his soul and become a sludgemariner

They can stuff the extra pay

krashpoet

well like he said he would never do a uk sub loves his crown jewels to much for that , but the AU subs are diff the red tape and labour agreement and a few brain cells can't work out that it makes sense you lot are trained just need the one week course lol he spoke to terry George on sunday about it and he said nah sorry mate

ROMFT_WO2RN

You'd think the bloody crims would appreciate some proper matelots

One of the chiefs who worked for me flies out this month. ME submariner the lucky sod.

I think it's all the on sub training they're looking for. No dolphins no go

Will you go down the civvy visa route?

krashpoet

Yer we will unless a miracle happens and the Ran list changes ( which i very much doubt )
Just waiting to see what happens after the election .
Its the 12 month notice that's the pain really .Also it looks like we would have to go state sponsor now because of the MODL off
You going on relative sponsor ?

ROMFT_WO2RN

yup uncle lives in Sydney. Chatting with agent today who reckons that if I'm still in when they try and finalise visa I'm stuffed i.e. no discharge cert no visa. I'm getting him to check if a statement of discharge date will be acceptable otherwise the new reduced times work against me

Have you sorted the skills assessment yet?

krashpoet

Ouch for you !
Sending the Info to Tra next month , when hub has a month off He hates being classed as a electrician special class lol welcome to civvie land lol

ROMFT_WO2RN

Made me Electronic Instrument Tradesperson - no licensing requirement in Oz unlike electrician

Funny old thing more hoops to jump through once you get there

Best of luck with TRA, more waiting

krashpoet

I know he said he wished he was a baker would be so much easier lol
Yup more waiting but hey getting used to it now
:fingers crossed: for you for the visa
Wondering about the expo in London in sept if it would be worth him going catch 22 when to hand in notice lol

ROMFT_WO2RN

Going to the Birmingham expo in Sept. Try and get some further info into these discharge certs

Need to wait until May next year for notice as 22 not up until May 12. Once your OH is at pension time might be worth slapping in, add some civvy employers to the CV

krashpoet

Ouch a wait for you, mind maybe a good thing by the way thing's are going at the moment .
Thinking about Oct to get it in You never know things may just fall in to place after the election ( we can only hope)
