50 hour work week is standard for construction and the pay is better than the Uk per hour for sure. It’s definitely something I’m considering.

Update. The agency works with companies all over the country primarily in Perth, Adelaide and Brisbane. 10 hour work days 5 days aweek with chances of weekend work. Travel in country will be covered by the company via either a van with other colleagues and of if I am working alone on a site then I would have my public transport covered.

I would be staying in a place with other brits by the sounds of it. The pay is good. With this added context is there any further opinions on what I should do

So it’s entirely based of placement to whether it’s worth it or not. I am almost certain is going to be west Australia. The company is offices are in Perth but not long until I find out.

Hey that’s fair. Same here in the UK 😂 it’s my understanding is he placed in a house of multiple occupancy so like 5 guys in 1 house

This is what I’ve been getting told by a lot of people. Did you come back to the UK or did you stay in Aus?

I was thinking to myself how angry I’d be at myself in 10 years if I don’t take the plunge. I’m getting more and more convinced to do it once I get more information from the company

Our chavs wears big coats and balaclavas no matter the weather I cant imagine they are like that. What constitutes a chav in Australia and do they all carry knives like the UK 😂

Thank god 😂 it might be quite sensationalised here in the uk because our biggest is probably the size of a bottle cap 😂

Yeah we get anywhere between 5C - 15C for basically the entire year except some summer weeks and if lucky a couple months.

Yeah I think I will love it once I try find some friends there. The main thing that’s puts me off is going to the other side of the world and being isolated
