  1. Im working as a offsider at the moment, if you want to go down that road don't go RC drilling its f**ked try and get on a diamond rig, heavy lifting but cruisie as. Money isn't great but like Alkatraz said wont take to long to become a driller and then your on anywhere between 110 - 150K + depending on meter bonus and ground conditions. Without a HR licence you would probably have to look at going underground which is where i started and loved.

    If your interested I can give you some numbers of drilling companies I know are hiring

  2. i work underground, what sort of offsider? we talking nipper or diamond drill offsider?

    Diamond drilling mate. Eventually went underground and loved it but had a run in with supervisor lol.... now Im on the surface with another company. Would like to go back underground but as a nipper/truckie, as diamond drilling is crap haha

    What site you at?

  3. Yeah dont worry I don't make big decisions from info on the net lol, after speaking to people that work underground seems if your with the right company at the right site its well worth it but as I am unsure where I would be located id prefer to stay on the surface.

  4. Ok I have just been offered a drillers offsider position and I can choice either surface or underground.

    Just wondering if anyone here has any experience in the drilling industry.

    Both positions are fifo, 2 and 1 roster and pretty similar pay. (underground slightly more)
