I paid about $60 from Kennards. The local Geelong paper also has the $20 Kennards Kash you can use. I went to the Kennards in Belmont.

Upon first sighting I thought this thread had something to do with a sex change.

Black Spur is a nice drive

Lol. Here we go. White Collar vs. Blue Collar. Supply and demand determines wages. It's cheaper and easier to find someone to hold a sign outdoor than to find a suitable engineer to design the road. The engineer has 5+ years of education and experience, isn't it fair that he get rewarded? My...

It's that easy to work an office job? At my last job, we all stayed in the office for some crazy hours and supplemented it all with hours spent at home on our laptops. We may not be doing physical work, but we did plenty of actual work. I've stayed up plenty of nights preparing things, doing...

You have 2 ears, 2 eyes and 1 mouth. Use them in that order. I think the catchphrase is "Big eyes, big ears, small mouth".

Don't ever volunteer for anything Never say yes when asked about having a motorbike licence or being a former cadet Never say "but Sergeant, that's not how we did it in cadets" Be the grey man, don't come first or last Don't be gobby Pull your weight and take responsibility for everything you...

If only you could do part time apprenticeships. We had plenty of part time students who worked their full time jobs and studied. A lot of people can't afford to drop a full time job when there's rent, food, kids etc. That way you graduate in twice the time (sometimes less) and finish up with...

Few things wrong here, straight from the mouth of a Commerce graduate. Earning nothing? Most people work jobs at Uni, it sounds like most pay about double what most apprenticeships pay. I worked at a Woolies Petrol making $18p/h ish. On top of that we've got 4 months of holiday between...

DFR will do anything to meet their quota. Although when I was going in as a Reserve Finance Officer initially, the careers guy talked me out of it. He asked me if I'd rather sit behind a desk or play with guns after doing my civvy job. Don't do Chocs for the cash unless you're a strapped Uni...

We all wear the same uniform. I think you'll find rivalry goes on everywhere in the ADF. Section vs. section, company vs. company, Officer vs. OR, Service vs. Service, Full time vs. Part time. It's all good fun and we're all part of the same family. Apparently Choc Officers are the worst...
