sick of not getting call backs about jobs ive applied for :@

I was just talking to my mum about this. I have been trying to get another job for a while now, havent had one call back! I did actually get a job by going into a temp agency and they said they will call me when to work. I heard nothing for a week and half so I called them, they said they havent been getting many shifts through :). Im starting to get desperate too, there is only so long you can live on $58 a week :ninja:

Hope you find something soon.

i was working at pizza hut for a while earning $200~ a week but after my loan repayments i see about $20 of that ,

all i want is a full time job earning $13/hour minimum , out of the 8 jobs i've applied for none have called me .

thank you economy (Y)

give you guise a tip: take your age off your resume unless the job is age specific. the employer should hire you on your experience/qualifications, not make pre-judgments about your age.

No but its not as if employers cant make an accurate guess during a face to face interview...

Youngsters will get hired many times before an older person, simply because theyre percieved to be less set in their ways and better able to adapt

its funny how some people are happy with $13/hour while i think $19/hour sucks.

I'd take $13/hr.

My current job is $18.74/hr (20y/o), and the one I got through the temp agency was $20.74/hr

Its not agaisnt the law to post what my pay rates are is it? If it is I will remove it...

Fu*k what a long day. 10hr day today. 8am-6pm. Been swinging a slegde hammer for about 3hrs of that. Blisters all over my hands.

Cheers Damo for the link. Wonder if those front doors will fit my car. Should blend in nice with the new paint.

Nope, I'd say you're doing pretty well to get that much. When I was starting out at the same age, I was getting minimum wage working for a certain nameless ISP - they didn't want to pay us as call centre workers (award was $18) so got us to do a few other minor tasks, so when business sa came in and audited the place, they classified the job as "Office Clerk" which the award was $13 at the time...

Needless to say, I shed no tears when leaving that place.

With you on that one Luke, dont think i want to see another star dropper for a while.

On a hillarious note, nearly had a 20 ton excavator tip off a low loader today :ninja:

Yeah I know the rate isnt bad but when I only get 4 hours a week out of it :ninja:

Got mixed up with the numbers between the two, my current one is a tad less than I wrote, but still over 18 though, which I'm definately happy with. Just a bit more (hours) of it would be nice...

I know what you mean. Our company has felt the slowdown. They offered us full timers to work a 4 day week, needless to say I took it.... been so busy lately I'd like the chance to sleep in a bit more and waste time playing world of warcraft heh

sorry, my bad......apparently the post count in Wasteland was going to be frozen due to all the post whores, according to a message I received from the Admins, but it doesn't look like they've gone ahead with it.

On a different note, did anyone hear the news a couple of nights ago about a filthy restaurant that stored live crabs in their toilet cubicles??!

LOL, sure puts a different spin and perspective on the whole idea of going to public toilets and literally catching crabs!!

MUD crabs eewwww yes i heard that on life FM yesterday, did you get my txt message the other day about reading the advertiser page 18 it was about bikie clubs and getting done by association

about time the wasteland became no post count zone

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
