What do you lot do to earn a crust??? - 2010
Hi Crew,
Just saw the users post and the topic of what everyone does for a living came up and as noted, many of us have changed jobs and there are a heap of new members.
I'll start it off:
I used to work for DoF as a finfish researcher (spanglies, reds and spaniards), but now work at Marinefarms as an aquaculture technician growing barra and dolphinfish in Exmouth. Also studying OHS at tafe this semester to go with a management degree that I studied previously. Will hopefully be getting my coxwain's soon to go hunt coral trout for broodstock at work when our license goes through. :) I also have run/owned fishwrecked for the last 5 years, write for the reeltime mag and have the telstra payphone contract for town as well.
Cheers,
Adam

Great job, something a bit different, and has a good blend of hands on fitting work, electrical and pc based commissioning and trouble shooting. We have work coming out of our ears, which is great, but lots of OT which knocks out a few Sat morning fish sessions.

Just start a new job in
Just start a new job in Leinster as a TA. Very cruisy number. 8 and 6 roster. Good crew to work with. Good facilities. Only problem is driving in and out from Kalbarri. Could drive to Perth and fly out but Perth sucks. Apparently its only a 7 hour drive verses 6 hours to Perth, then stay somewhere, catching taxi's etc. Nah think I'll just drive there.
Prior to that working in the building industry up here doing gyprock, chippie work, plumbing, landscaping, paving, whatever I could find. Before moving up here I had my own landscaping business in Perth doing large residential and commercial properties.

Mineral Processor and part time pro golfer. Golf isn't all the glitz and glamour it is on tv but love the game. Now Tiger is out the way though you never know.....hahaha. A lot of money involved in getting out there and if you don't have it or have know one to give it to you it can be tough. Thats why now it is part time while working as a processor, luckily the boss is understanding and lets me get out there if there are any tournaments on.

Using West Australian hardwoods to produce some of the best musical instruments (drums) on the planet.
Our client list reads like a who's who of the music industry, and I get to go to a lot of gigs and meet artists like Mick Fleetwood, Dave Grohl, etc.
Not a glamourous job from day to day though (spend most of my time covered in sawdust), but it is fun to be creating such beautiful instruments.
(I'm also a drummer, of course, and gig fairly regularly around Perth, with the occassional country trip thrown in.

Physiotherapist
I am a Physiotherapist working at a private practice in Ascot.
We treat private patients, workers comp, motor vehicle accident, post surgical and department of vetrans affairs.
Basically, if you have pain we can treat it. Usually people coming in complain of low back pain or neck pain, or various sports injuries relating to knees and ankles.
The best result I've had so far with a patient was getting him back to fishing after years of back pain while trying to fish.
Feel free to ask via pm for advice regarding pain or finding a physiotherapist.
