Over it though, so many extras and you don’t come out any better off if you banged out a couple of small ones. Send some of that Sydney work up this way hey? Haha

We are the only project/volume housing company that is still stick frame all the rest are pre fab. I think I might take a few days off leave the boys at work and get my boots on the ground.

What state are you in? I’m in Queensland and HIA where doing the cert 4 for 1800 but now it’s even cheaper. 2-3 nights a week and every second Saturday for 8 months I think it was.

I’m a contract carpenter and have been through a few apprentices, currently have two of them. I found fair work to be pretty useless at best.
