what WGMG c**t employers that knock you back for a job because they find out that your dad bought you a car, they think you are a daddys boy,

thats just been stereotypical, the bitches dont know under what circumstances the car was bought under, and then when ya try and explain they question whether you are actually the age your drivers license and birth certificate say you are, judging a person by appearance....

then they call you and tell you to come in for a chat and they say you wernt qualified even tho they wernt looking for a qualified person at all....

THEN you find out the person they did hire for the job has an extensive criminal record, one of which time was from his previous employer

so i hope this business burns to the ground and they go bankrupt :whistling:

its a real kick in the teeth :P

i have pretty much have been said yes to a job over the phone by about 5 different employers now as they needed urgent staff with no qualifications needed, when they see me all of a sudden they look at you like a little kid and say they arnt hiring any more.... things can be tuff sometimes :)

rant over :)

I am sharing your pain - I finished my apprenticeship @ 19 and I looked like I was 16 and I had a really hard time for 3-4 years. Just take consolation from the fact that it will happen, you just have to wait a little while longer for your balls to drop (jks)

Besides, when you are 40 and only look 30, and you have 10 years more experience than other blokes (who look) your age, who will be laughing then?

lol high school and thats it, but obviously im not applying for jobs that require any specific qualifications, i put in applications for jobs that specifically say "no qualifications required" and "will train on job" etc

i quit working at "the boat" which was really sh*t hours, mayb 1 hour in morning and 1 hour in the afternoon lol

but at the moment im looking for anything possible, for example shelf stacking etc

lol maybe i should just apply for jobs that require 15 year olds or something lol and i wont say im 19 turning 20

I feel sorry for all you baby faced munchkins.. I've had a goatee since I was 15 which was great for buying alcohol with :thumbsup:

Sammie, I think you'll find that the people advertising these lame jobs with no skills required are probably looking for someone under the age of 18 that they don't have to pay adult wages to. Get a job pushing trolleys while doing a 6month CAD course at tafe then get a job drafting.. ask Dale, we make lots of money :D

yes, yes we do, especially if we are nasty money grubbing contractors

*does a happy dance*

most of my mates don't believe me when I tell them how much per hour we are getting, but to give you an idea, blokes with 10+ years experience have been getting offered $72 per hour lately.

I came into it from a trade background (best move I ever made was getting off the tools) but if you can find someone who offers traineeships then you will be set for life.

retiring at 50 FTW!!!

      Wanted to buy R200 longnose LSD 3.9 ratio

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      By sonicii · Posted

      Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Erelyes · Posted

      Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.

      M35 Aftermarket Fuel Pump

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
