ryan brown Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 hey guys, ive been here for 18 months now from Lincoln. my wife is really loving it but im still unsure, mainly due to work. ive worked for two firms, one with balustrades and the other building caravans. The trouble is ive been a chippy for 12 years back home doing allsorts of carpentry and I just cant find that here. I have started to look into mining but so far no joy. im not sure but I think being on a visa might be part of the problem !! any advise or even work contracts would be awesome, thanks guys.

Chardy Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 Check out the Weekend West on Saturday morning and go round the new developments and ask the tradies, I don't see what difference it makes what visa you are on as long as it allows you to work here ?!

Yes but be prepared for a price shock compared to what you would have paid in the UK ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm pretty sure I PM'd your wife with details of a carpenter here in Freo who had too much work to cope with. I passed his number on to her around 5 or 6 weeks ago and he never heard from you. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why you're struggling to find work? Unfortunately I think the moment has passed so I'm sorry to hear you're still having difficulties, I had hoped you'd found something and were so busy you couldn't manage a courtesy call.
