    roight, i already work 2 jobs on the gold coast but that just doesn't seem to cut it.
    i'm apparently about to be kicked out out my gf's parent's place and it has been suggested that i move to toowoomba.

    does anybody know of any jobs going up there?
    apprentice mechanic type thing would be preferable since i need to be a 'student' to stay at this cheap arse student village where i used to live

    any help would be greatly appreciated

    cheers

    Motor Mechanics first year apprentice get about $270 a week, not much. There isn't many mechaincs around these days, they called technicians as cars these days are just about all run by computer.

    if you need a job quick get in contact with some labour hire companies...$25 per hr isnt bad until you find yourself an apprenticeship

    i wouldnt go to toowoomba...you'll die of boredom
