I was hired as a aprentice mecanic, with a Class one licence, to work for GO MCDONALDSON, instead, I am working on my employers house as as general labour, its not bad though I'm learning to drive a backhoe, forklift, learning more construction, manson work, conduate laying for plumbing and electrical, and what ever else is needed. Its a big house my mew boss has. I love my new job I can actually think about buying a house in Victoria now.
