xfader,

ever thought of personal care work? (don't know what the requirements are to work in this field in NSW...)

not everyone has the balls for it (actually i reckon the real problem is people aren't willing to try Mad ), but helping people with disabilities is pretty satisfying... it depends on what you want out of a job, i suppose. i did care work for 2+ years, usually 30+ hours per week (plus studying) and it was emotionally draining, but also ridiculously rewarding.


- rates are usually very good, and there is heaps of loading for evenings/weekends, which you can work plenty of
- you get to witness an awesome cross-section of society; you will help all types, you will be thanked repeatedly, and you will learn just how frustrating your life could have been if you weren't such a lucky motherfucker Very Happy
- you will gain people-skills you didn't know you had, from working with people you didn't know existed
- it teaches you composure and presence-of-mind... situations that make your mates nervous/queasy/embarrassed, you will be able to handle whilst standing on your head... and you will make it look easy, too
- if you don't like the people you are working with, you can just tell your boss you want to work with someone else!! Shocked
- you work very closely with, and get to know, a LOT of nurses... i can say no more about this matter Evil or Very Mad
- you get to hear war veterans brag about the chicks they have nailed 'back in the day' the same way you and your mates crap on!!! Laughing
- it looks bloody good on a resume! (i had no idea how significant this would be until later)


i could go on and on, dude, but you're probably hoping i don't... just thought i would offer the suggestion.
