Not preaching or nothing as we all pretty much despise having to work, but please enjoy what you do. As i mentioned a few posts ago me and all my workmates were expecting a weeks pay last thursday morning. It didnt happen. Then we were all stood down by mid morning the same day with no entitlements. We now running picket line out the front 24/7. Not a nice feeling not knowing where the next $1 is gonna come from. Cheers to all.

This is a hard one for me to answer. I work in a remote location in a mine where I work 8 days on/ 6 off. In the 8 days that I am on, I work 88 hours ( 8 hours the first and last day, 12 hours on days 2-7). Then I get 6 off where I do nothing but hookers and hash!
 Just kidding but I don't work during those 6 days, I play golf and ride my motorbike. I suppose I could work out the average! That would be 44 hours a week.  :
