Hey guys,

I'm sick of my maccas job, and I need something different. After working for such a big company for so long, I want to find a job at a small place where they will treat me like a person, and not a number.

I can work from 5-5:30 (earlier if I dont need to have a shower before hand, I'm an apprentice mechanic) to about 9:30-10 Sunday-Thursday, 5-5:30 to when ever on Friday, and all day saturday.

Any ideas guys? I REALLY need a new casual job!!

Rhys

^ +1 for dodgy asian style cash jobs too...

seriously man look into retail but the thing is they don't offer after hour kinda shifts, umm... heard like night shift guys get alright money at like COLES/KMART and those alike, give them a shot...

my mates used to work late nights at KMART in year 11/12... bought their first cars with that cash

lol, are you trying to shut down my ego Leo?

he has a nice URAS kit that's painted with no scratches...

my car is going to AutoSalon next year, hope so anyway... wait and see...

and by they way Rhys, i have HEAPS of family that have work for you, the pay probably isn't as good as Maccas though and not as close as it is to your house...

and the work won't require for you to have a shower beforehand... might be preferred though, let me know if you're interested anyway

ANDREW!!! STOP WHORING UP MY THREAD!!! :P

Leo, dont your not helping either...

Kylie, I looking into that job, but it looks like its mainly during the day? Thanks anyway.

Andrew, any more details? Like I said, I'd prefer to work in a small place.

I have 2 jobs atm, my apprentiship is at a small workshop, and maccas. I get treated MUCH better at the small shop, then the larger money making business.

Cheers for the replies guys, I'll look into it

i used to work at the iga distribution ware house (same as the coles job kylie posted)

its good pay but boring a hell, basically you get given a forklift and a head set, and it tells you how many boxes of something to stack on a pallet

then you wrap it up in gladwrap and dump in in a truck

its a repetitive cycle that makes you go insane thats why they pay you well for it :P

"go to isle 23"

bay number 67 alpha

I work this job(the coles one), we don't have headsets, just labels... headsets are coming in at the new dc which Im not going to till septemberish.

There are different roles, what Karl described is what the pleb pickers do....

Like I said last time RHys, those rates are base rate, grocery has incentive on top.

Im doing Ok compared to other guys on the fork, but still get an extra $300 a week cause I do my job properly and don't bludge.

if your lucky enough to get the shifts you want i know that Bunnings pays very well about 2-4 bucks extra an hour than youd earn at any supermarket store ie coles. Also theyre open sundays obviously so you have more room for extra shifts if you want.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.

      The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
