Yeah i get that jester.

i just would rather hold out for a better job than that who wouldnt??? unless of course thats your thing then you dont mind...

but when all you have ever done is joinery and wood machineing for 16 years its hard to look at other jobs and to get into em coz everyone thinks you want to do the wood/joinery jobs...

i would quite happily be a check out person or stack shelves i would love that no thinking envolved just stacking it would be ace i applied for 4 jobs like that before xmas and got no were not even a call i went bunnings and got no were too

if you keep holding out for the perfect job, you'll never find it. so what if they *think* you are going to leave. well you are aren't you? those sorts of jobs are high turnover, they can expect that. Tried searching a little bit out of town? Harvey, Pinjarra, Busselton etc? Surely in the 4 months since Christmas you could have picked *something* up? Do any of the local night clubs need glassies? Glassies are always in demand. Paper round? Night time petrol station attendant? They are shit jobs (except for being a Glassie ) but they are jobs

i would do them i have had 2 jobs since being here one in busso and one in collie both an hr away from me got laid off in busso after 5 weeks, and the collie one didnt work out after 2 days plus it went bust 2 weeks later (pinetec) got a 3rd job but they were waiting on contracts rung once to say they were still waiting but never again

tried for beer store but you need responsible alcohol license!!!

i am actually trying i am just hoping some one can say there is a job at my place i will have a word type thing.....

also applied and tried for the police to then go get my eyes tested to be told they are 6/9.3 and they have to be 6/9 maximum i even went and bought glasses for $500 to find that out

am thinking about doing a hr license too.....

The RSA isnt associated with a job. Its a bit of paper you need to have these days to serve alcohol.

Like i said, its a 1 day course, their held all over the place. I think you can even do them on the net these days. Whats $90 if it opens up a few more opportunities?

yeah i know what it is, i just dont know if its worth getting it?

i only wanted the store job ie stacking shelves/serveing customers but when the said i will need the rsa and its $90 bucks i said will i get the job if i get it and they said possibly there is a lot of applicants though...remember i have never worked ina shop before so my lack of experience is against me
