Yeah she had, but after returning when her ankle was sorted they dropped her ... nice of them! ...

She's been looking for work for ages again but same old story with the Gold Coast, too many applications for every admin job and not having any joy ...

She's been looking for work now in south Brissie and got some interviews lined up next week, but if she doesn't score a job REAL soon it'll be back to the UK for me!

Must admit we both currently wonder is it all REALLY worth it just for the sun in the sky! ...

Oh gosh, really sorry to hear all that, especially after all that you guys have been through already.
How is your job going?
Are there not many jobs available in Bris?

My job is super fine. I actually still enjoy going to work in the morning after nearly 3 months ... ... but as we all know you NEED either 1 very good wage, or 2 to get by here!

It's annoying as Nic REALLY wants to work full time, but just can't secure a job in a field that she has bundles of experience in ...

Brissie I hear will offer a lot more in her field, but is also an hour on a train, or 90 mins by car ... ish!

She's got a few interviews on the south side next week as I say but too much of this crap and I reckon we'll hold out for citizenship and then ping pong ...

Lovely country, lovely people, a lot of lovelies ... but at the end of the day bills need to be paid.

It must be so very frustrating for you both. Is it that the jobs are not available or something deeper?
Maybe commuting is the answer
Glad that your job is going well though.
Sending positive vibes for Nic!
