Howdy,

Just wondering if people know of any places in Adelaide that pay a decent amount of money for casual positions? Like through a labour hire place etc.

I am talking about places that pay over say $16 an hour.

Already know of a couple of places through labour hire, but thought others might know some places pay better than others?

Word of mouth is the best way to find work, so let us know - here or pm - if u know whats out there in Adelaide :pirate:

Doesnt matter where in Adelaide it is either, just metro will do :O

thanks

Integrated I've found pay well.. They are a good bunch of blokes/women and don't get all high and mighty like some other labour higher places I know of.

They also don't come out to where you are working and start nosing around.

I've found they also tend to pay the most. Pay is always over $16. usually $17-18.

Good bunch of ppls, treat them right and they will most definitely look after you.

If you are after full time work Addecco are apparently the ones to go for.

All though I was offered a job at boral; asphalt lab testing and general asphalt surveying after it had been laid. I passed it up due to uni but it was an enjoyable job; quite relaxed, good people and awesome pay.

Addecco is the one i was with last, just didnt like their "on call" jobs where they ring u at a 6:30pm friday arvo and ask if u wanna work...

Unfortunately thats the way all labour hire works as they need people quick to fill a position that some bum has walked out on, that is unless you get a rare advance notice. Out of all the jobs I've had through intergrated the only one that gave me a week notice was the boral asphalt job.

schefenacker seems to go thru a lot of people and they rates here are preety good ( i work here), give the hr department a call and they will put you thru to the respective labour hire mobs.... and there are new projects starting very soon like next week or two... so should be plenty of work....

Darren,

How long ago was it u were with Addecco? They have recently (last year or 2) moved from the temp/casual type work to only full time type work.

Reason I know this is I had heard good things about them regarding how much work they have going that tends to lead on to full time permanent work. I went to register with them but they wouldn't accept me as I was a student and they said they only accept people who are able to work full time as the positions they offer are full time only.

So really I was wrong saying most labour hire as thats simply not correct. There appears to be two main types of labour hire, small position filling type work to full time positions.

Integrated is good but they 80% of the time don't offer full time work that goes for longer than a couple of months.

thanks, will call em and see what the deal is.

cubes, i was with them at the end of last year, so not too long ago. Ill ring em agiain to see what thy have now though. They didnt have too much besides what i was doing at the time....

Im not really fussy if its full time or not, just need ongoing work, so if full time dont work out it doesnt matter.

    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it. 
    • Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.
