Whats everyone do?

[Morgs]

Whats everyone do for a crust/work ?

Im 3rd year B.Business undergrad, should be finished within 6 months (part time)... can't wait to get out of there :)

I spend some time working at a 5 star Hotel, among things as a valet which is pretty cool.... I also do project/assignment work for various companies.

[McLOVIN]

I work for a telco in local/long distance telephone faults.


Also looking into the possibility of starting my own online business at some point in the near future.

[suburban]

im a drafty for the homebuyers ctr

i draw houses, and lots of them :)

[dorisaur]

Im your handy help desk operator at an internet company... man its lame

[Nizmo]

Im a temp. For the last 9 months ive been assigned to the Government although my contract is due to end at the end of this week so after that who knows :)

[McLOVIN]

Temping smokes pole. I did it for like 2 years and it sucked hardcore. More money than permanent but no sick pay or anything.


I could never go back to that.

[Nizmo]

Temping smokes pole. I did it for like 2 years and it sucked hardcore. More money than permanent but no sick pay or anything.


I could never go back to that.

Well considering i used to work for a company that paid me below award wage, wouldnt let me take holidays and if i had a sick day i would be ignored by the bosses for two weeks .... this is bliss. :)

I dont know what i want to do and end up changing jobs every 7 months anyway so i prefer this ....im free ... i can take holidays when i want and i dont owe the companies i work for anything. So far i havent been outta work for too long so i cant complain :) Guess it isnt for everybody but i get paid rather well so im not complaining.

[McLOVIN]

Furry muff. I found the agency I temped for, and the company I temped at, to be utterly hopeless. But they had been good to me in the past so I stuck with them as long as I could stand it. Then they simply stopped giving me work.

If you enjoy what you do, it's different. I didn't enjoy getting reamed so yer.

[Nizmo]

you apply to more than one temp agency .... even thte temp agency i applied for suggested it would be a good idea to do that. But ive never had too cos they basically got me work straight off.

[McLOVIN]

Yeah that's why I stuck with the agency I was with. They had always found work for me, but in the end, I was stuck doing shitty short term jobs for the 1 company. So I found myself a permanent position.

[AngeLissA]

I'm mostly a 3rd year uni undergrad but currently bored out of my brain on 'industrial training' at a particular finanicial institution.

I occasionally work in a cafe at the international airport and do casual audit/market research work and am trying to start my own business.

Pretty standard really :)

[Joel]

I train bonobo monkeys to create online database applications.
The best they have done so far is a porn site.

That and I work in IT at Landmark.

[d0p3y]

I'm about to start a job as a fulltime web designer & some technical support for an ISP. Also do web and graphic design stuff on the side cheaply to give myself a bit of spending cash and help out the little guys who can't afford big budget websites & magazine ads.

[Joel]

Conclusion: Nerds have fast cars

I actually work as a Network Analyst for Unisys in Perth...and I agree with Joel, nerds have fast cars.

[Adsport]

theres more to life, dont get stuck in a job you dont like, chase your dreams cos life is too short.

[mischief1]

no shit hey adz.

I was doing a bit of random IT stuff for a little while after doing a couple years of TAFE, didnt enjoy it anymore, so canned that. I've been working at Coles aswell to supplement my pay, i find it actually more enjoyable than sitting at a computer, call me crazy.

So looking for another job atm, need decent car, haha. Might even study again.

Recently got some more duties to look after at work, including watching DVD's, IRC, playing a few PC games, and listening to music.

Oh, and smoking....

[Bugle]

I'm a full time uni bum.. The pay sucks.

[Kel]

Hi I'm Kelly (Steve from SST's daughter for those who don't know). I'm a student but through my holidays I work (sort of anyway :P )for my old man!!

I'm not quite old enough to have a licence therefore I don't have a car...future ambition is to own an Evo 3 and/or 6! Ohterwise a Skyline will do!! hehehe

And before you ask my old man...no teenage girls on't come cheap when it comes to buying these things!!

[suburban]

least having a fast car will be easy for ya :)

[Kel]

No actually it has made it harder!! The old man has seen some of his customers do things the regret in their cars, and my older sister had a car with a turbo and after te latest boyfriend none of us girls will be in fast cars until we can pay for it..still get to drive the GTR when I get a licence though, so I can fulfil the need for speed occassionally! Especially after the engine rebuild...my Mum really wants a 10 second GTR...hasn't she got a long wait ahead of her?

[SmItLeR]

marcus - atleast your honest
see the irony? lol

[SmItLeR]

Bugle - take that fkn avatar pic off now!! grrrrrrr that prick makes me cringe (ra ra virgin text ra ra - FK OFF POOFTA)!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cant stand that fkn face - see that prick on taxis and everywhere!!! how much did he get paid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! aghhhhhhhhh - ohh the nightmares

[suburban]

yeh it is disturbing aint it :D

[Kel]

Got a mate who wrote that guy for fun and he actually writes back...it was soooo funny! If he annoys you that much...call him!! hehe

[SmItLeR]

fk - i cant believe there is a facce that ugly travelling the world on adverts!! fk this world is sad

[Kel]

Gee, you get pasionate bout things, don't you??

[SmItLeR]

hahahah - nah just that prick pisses me off

[Kel]

Yeah "passionatly" hateful!!

[SmItLeR]

exactly :)

[1JZNOSHIT]

I work for Rick Hart, I dont enjoy it too much either, so if anyone needs anything electrical, let me know and I will get it for you at cost price

Matt

[Kel]

Your offer is greatly ppreciated, but hopefully they don't check up on how much you get cost price coz they'll fire your arse when everyone decides you are the cheaper way out!!

[suburban]

which shop :D

[Kel]

How many are there? Only 2 or 3 I think!!

[1JZNOSHIT]

Im at Rick Hart in Northbridge.
As for firing me, not a chance, its quite common for me to sell shit to mates etc at cost price as I seem to have that sort of authority around the place :werd:

Most named brand electrical product (Sony, Panasonic, LG, Philips etc) has approx 15-20% mark up on it, so thats a fair saving on a brand new product with a manufactures warranty if anyone out there is in the market :wave:

[suburban]

ive been told that some shops have the cost price on a barcode sticker with a few other numbers infront like a serial. so basically the last few numbers are what the item cost at cost price

this true or do you know of anything like this ?

[pva_glue]

my contribution...

I am also uni bum... ;)

yeah I stick me arms in the cow's rectum for living... :p

[Kel]

So on a serious note are you studying vet or is this your idea of taking the piss out of yourself?

[1JZNOSHIT]

optical, apparently harvey norman do something like that. but i know rick hart definately dont

[Verd1ct]

I few retail shops I know of run systems like that..

Is your offer for cost priced electrical items still open? ;)

[tomj]

Its common practise and allowable to sell items every once in a while at cost price. I do it all the time down at

Audio Intensity in Beach Road Malaga - Hint Hint! - Stockists of Alpine Clarion JVC JL Kenwood and more - Mates own the place so I bum around often and lend a hand - So I get to give mates a good deal.

Im always willing to help you all save a few bucks on audio gear. Pm me with any requests. Please no "get me a $2000 deck for 50 bucks" as ill just ignore it :)

[Nizmo]

i now work the the West Australian Turf Club .... (owns n operates Ascot n Belmont racecoarses and the body that controls horseracing in WA) im Admin Assistant at moment but you'll probably see me working there major days like melbourne cup n perth cup .... so come n say hi.

And for my friends if you need to borrow my members passes let me know ;)

[1JZNOSHIT]

Verd1ct, what you want? cost price all day every day where i work :-)

I am hopefully leaving there soon so if your in the market for something let me know.

[banshee]

I work for Golden Circle, untill uni starts anyway. It sucks, but it pays for all the shit I break on my car.

I was working for QUT (queensland university of technology, you ignorant perthys, heh, *jokes*), same pay, but i got to look at beutifal women all day long, but alas that job wasn't perminant.
