Switch, definately in my life pal. Maybe you should look around a bit more champ. T/A's here are clearing $1300 a week. There was a shortage here of sparkies a short time ago and pays were getting up to $3000 a week. Maybe your construction areas dont pay as well. Cheers, Jim

meh, whatever, just what i thought. No back up to the claim.
Oh well, let the people think what they want, but i know better then you and them about my social standing in society.

Ok - no offence everyone, but can we please get back to the topic at hand? I'm after USEFUL info, not cat fights.
ANYwho. I have contacted wageline, and for those who might be intersted in NOT arguing with each other, the following are the Victorian MINIMUM pays for a 22yo electrical aprentice, and it's GROSS pay per week
1st year - $267.98
2nd - $343.36
3rd - $456.54
4th - $531.92
Now, this differs from company to company depending on what they see fit. ie, an old friend of Lukes was my age in his 3rd year and was earning $700/week NET. So I guess anything's possible - but it's better to budget off the minimum.
Other than that, I was told that I would have 'buckleys and none' of getting an aprenticeship if I don't do a PRE-aprenticeship at a local RMIT. I have missed the course for this year - the next one begins in Feb next year :? We have a booked holiday to Japan next year to see my sis :? I will have to look into that one further...
BUT, if that IS the case, then I guess I have the next 6mths to save some $$ to put away?
They also said that I might be eligible for youth allowance from centrelink (how I HATE centrelink) to top up my pay to what they think is a reasonable amount....
Long hours at Bunnings or Safeway, here we come....
So there's the latest - anyone else w/ info?

Look what you've started Becky!!! :lol:
WOW people here do have spines.
Winge all your like TS, your the one that posted pics up of you driving your daddy's porshe at excessive speeds and a long story to go with it boasting about it. When you make ignorant comments in other threads bagging people having problems when they read certain upsetting things, of course this kind of thing is going to come back and bite you in the arrse.
Is that the social standing where you go out every weekend to the pub trying to pick up?
Then post crapp about how everyone here sucks cos you didn't pick up :lol:

Moose, dont be such an ignoramous. The shift length is 12 hours, usually 13 day fortnights, 5 and 1, 6 and 1, 8 and 1. Just because you havn't worked in places like this doesnt mean it isnt true. And those pays are day shift, night shift attracts extra loading. And there are alot of jobs going, in Dampier there are 5 seperate site expansions happening right now, with woodside's train 5 starting soon ( train 4 is almost completed ), pilbara irons phase a expansion yet to be finished and phase b coming in the not too distant future, the dampier port upgrade, burrup fertlisers, the pilbara iron rail duplification, construction of hope downs mine site, DO I NEED TO CONTINUE.
NOT EVERYONE WANTS OR WILL DO a 9 - 5 or equivalent job, and they are getting well paid for having nearly no life. Not for everyone, but they certainly dont have too many probs finding people to work.

Sorry I was being silly suggesting the 100 hour week! I mean, a 78hr week is so much better isn't it womas! The additional 22 hrs can be used for sleep.

So, you give up on making me out as a liar ( cause your wrong ) and just adopt a different approach to belittle what i stated. Bex wanted info, she has recieved some.
Shame you couldnt contribute constructively for her. You just waffle crap like always. Shame most of your posts are about nothing, help no one, and have very little herp related info because you know next to nothing about herps. Have a nice day champ.

I won't bother commenting. One, because obviously you aren't out there working your honest 78hr shift, and the other because you think being a big-noter makes you a bigger man.
On the herp front, I don't have to know much about herps anyway, Sorry, again it must make you feel bigger than you actually are. I apologise to Bex for coming into this thread and ruining it having to extinguish big noting rubbish posted by a small minded person such as yourself. We're talking apprenticeship wages, not shift junkies doing riduculous hours. Crawl back into your little hole Womas! :wink:
