Hi JKESA,
many thanks for the reply much appreciated. Sorry for late response but we have all had the dreaded lurgy of here with the appalling weather! To be honest from the feed back I have been getting from people I think travelling from the Gold Coast each day is too far and too expensive so we will probs look for somewhere nearer Brisbane as we can easily travel to GC at the weekends as it isn’t that far. Unfortunately we don’t have the luxury of being able to make a reckie but we do have a family friend who lives in Brisbane so we are arranging to chat to them shortly which should help us alot.
Job wise i would be working for Yokogawa, not sure if you have heard of them? What’s the current climate like there with regards to available work considering the economic downturn, what effect is it having on employment in Brisbane? The situation over here is not very good at all to be honest though i know i am safe in my job at the moment. One of the problems we are having is trying to sell our house due to this downturn and it looks like with the house price falls we won’t actually make anything on it which is a pain. Though we are not that bothered as we are just desperate to get over there and have a better quality of life for our son.
As it looks we will probs come over on a 175 visa and run the 475 along side it, does anyone know if there are any great draw backs doing this?
Mark and Jo... you are so right don’t wish to spend all my spare time driving to and from work!!
Take care and stay safe guys hope to be out there July August time.
