Congratulations Neil! Nice work mate, enjoy it over there!

Doc you punk, I already used up my WHV - if I hadn't I'd have been back out 2 or 3 years ago, looking for a job and sponsorship! Well done mate, you get out there and start making the most of it all. I'll have a steak if you've got any! Marinated in honey and soy sauce please!

docgp

barbie is looking good!

Steak has just gone on,

shame about whv

im sure i read somewhere that you can apply for a second whv, if you worked in remote areas or something, will try and dig it out

doc

My mate had two WHV's and she was in Sydney.

pacey

yep i thik if you've done 3 months of work in a remote area (fruit picking basically), you can apply for a second WHV. Or you can now get a 2 year WHV straight off, if you basically promise to do the above!

either way, i'm screwed! to think i only used about 6 months of it, and didn't do any "official" work neither!

I was watching that earlier...is bloody funny!

Got a salary query...was told in the interview salary would be $50k...contract just arrived and it says $40k...should I send a polite email querying this or wait til I get there and casually mention to my boss that it's $10k less than what I agreed to?? I would have turned the job down if I'd known it would be less than $50k but now it's too late as I can't complete my degree without industry experience

pacey

I think I would ask about that if i were you. Cause if u sign the contract, then you can't argue later that they have screwed you out of 10k! "Where ma money at, bitch!" is definately the email title you should use.
