For fairly unskilled work..I would be looking at customer sevice.. that sort of thing, as that is this sort of area.

AAPT often has openings available for call centre operators. The theme parks often have openings if you're a bit of a people person.

Even something like working for a cleaning company cleaning hotels, factories, or the like if you're really desparate to just get something.

There is plenty of construction around, so if you can handle labouring in the hot sun, there is a bit of that work around.

My suggestions anyhow.

Blue card, hard hat, and good work boots, many will require an abn too. The blue card is $75-100, and there are a few web sites where you can do the test.

But yeah, what are your actual skills.

thanks for youe help thus far guys

the job doesnt necessaraily have to be on the gold coast but within travelling distance each day

thanks

We cant help you unless you tell us your qualifications...

I mean there are 3 jobs i can think of off the top of my head. But all 3 require a little knowledge in their fields...

Maby you dont have any qualifications... But if you put the following we will be able to help;

1. Age

2. Location (suburb)

3. Car Y/N

4. Education Level

5. (most important) What jobs have u had and for how long?

Mate....

Just to be completelly honest now...

No... If you cant go to the effort of answering a few simple questions that really does nothing to identify you or harm you which will help other help u also. In order to get a job i dont think i would be keen on interviewing you as already im not hearing any enthuisam.

Sorry

OK....

The jobs i have on the books will be a little too much at the moment. Also fast food joints will say your 17 (meaning they could hire 2 x 14 year olds for the same dollar) So might i suggest getting back into retail (not iga) but more like Target or K-Mart. Become a shelf stocker, work your way up.

Yes retail means weekend work. But remember retail means air conditioned work and great rates ($$$) for casual and part timers. Also with retail you always have promotion in larger company's. I mean you can drop out of school at year 10 and still earn over 150k as a department manager for coles myer.... Think about it....

    • You're not the first person that's said that about this car lol. A Touring wagon GT in Spark yellow mica would be the dog's danglies 😆 I will keep an eye out for a future purchase for sure. The seats are almost like the OEM Recaros... electric adjustment for fore/aft and tilt movements except reclining.   
    • Yes!! I love these! It's a shame its not the wagon though!   Thank everything that's holy that it doesn't have the interior of the Aussie delivered ones. Those seats are so much nicer.  
    • I'm both sorry and thankful that you do that. 
    • 2001 BE5D Subaru Legacy B4 RSK (3rd gen) EJ208 (pink injector) Twin Turbo 280PS 5-speed manual Full time 4WD "RSK" grade which means all of the above LQC option which means stock rear spoiler  I got it primarily to export to someone outside Japan who was interested. These BE5 Legacy B4 RSKs are going through a bit of a resurgence right know in Japan as they are one of the few cars from the "turbo, manual, RWD/4WD, 280hp gentleman's agreement era" cars that don't require stupid money to purchase. Which for some people might be a good opportunity to get as a base for restoration. If I can't find anyone to purchase it I will certainly be doing that myself over the long term. Why? Because it's properly fast in stock form, handles well enough for a GT sedan, there's still enough aftermarket and (if you can wait a while) genuine part support to make it a restoration candidate (<-- that will only get worse over time so it's a case of do it now or choose get a BL5 4th Gen). Mechanically it's fine, has only 89,200kms on the odometer. The problem with this car is that the body and exterior trims are weathered from at least the last 10 years being parked outdoors. I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner was the one that had it for 14 years and barely drove it, had a low-speed front impact (which didn't damage anything behind the radiator support) and got it fixed and sold it. The 2nd owner put most of the kms on it and parked it outside for the last 10 years, hence the door rubbers have seen better days but if you overlook those cosmetic details, it presents pretty nicely. There is some minor rust on the LH rear wheel arch which I'll have looked at too at some stage.  Also as you'd expect from a car this age, the clear top coat is gone, leaving a satin finish on the roof.  Mechanically it's fine (as you would expect from a car with less than 100K kms) but the steering does feel slightly vague around the centre position at higher speeds. So first on the list is to get the steering rack bushes looked at. There's also the Lock button on the remote which doesn't work, but the Open button does.... it means that the anti-theft system thinks it's always open? It seems like if you open the car and don't start the engine within 3 mins or so the anti-theft kicks in again without any beeps or signals. So if you got to start it after that, it won't. You have to push the open button again. That's how I understand it anyway. Just a small irritation but not a big problem to sort out. There's only one mod, the Wangan SPL muffler. Just a tad louder than stock. It's a really good mod for those who don't want to wake the neighbours but still want to hear a more prominent unequal length header EJ20 sound. Anyway I hope to get all those things done eventually, that is unless someone wanted to import it to their country from Japan (where I live). I'm open for negotiations as I really would like a Skyline... but this will definitely suffice in the meantime 🙂 *Disclaimer: This is how I picked it up from the dealer, minus the stuff on the back seat. I haven't cleaned the engine bay or done a thorough exterior clean, aside from spray painting the wipers. 
    • Wow, even with the Audi logo centre caps. I love OEM wheel mismatches.
