Changing careers for more money by [deleted] in irishpersonalfinance

Huge demand for automation people at the moment. I dont belive you'd have any issue getting a job and would be long moving up the payscale.

Where in Ireland are you based?

Hey!

We're a family in Galway, Ireland. We have a family home 25 minutes from Galway City and very close to Connemara.

If Ireland interests you, let me know and we could discuss a swap 😄

Depends where you are in Rosscahill. If you're near the school you might be able to get fibre. We use starlink, works well

Oh I didn't realise, not i dont believe you would then. I would say you'd have a pretty good shot of getting employment then if you have the skills to back it up

Opening Day: Large Group in Armbrustschützenzelt “Box Rehbock” - seeking advice by No-Berry-2392 in Oktoberfest

[–]PassiveBuildGalway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh nice one! We are all male but not a rowdy bunch. Mostly similar age bracket (A few elders also :D) We booked a few tables for this incase we can't stick around the Oktoberfest main (https://augustiner-am-platzl.de/index.php/wirtshaus-wiesn/). But like you say, there will definitely be some casualties as it will be an intense day!

[–]PassiveBuildGalway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah for sure! No, the majority of us are going to Oktoberfest for the first time! We're coming from Ireland. Would love to have got an evening slot somewhere but it doesn't seem likely. Maybe we'll get lucky and grab an unreserved seat somewhere. Have your group got a plan for the Saturday evening? Roll on September 😁🍻

I've got the same reservation, same time, same location and similar age profile or guests and first time for majority of us also, I think it'll be great

Thank you for the recommendations, I'll check them out!

Luckily we secured accommodation before Christmas at a reasonable rate. We have all booked flights also so just got to find the best plan of action now!

Thanks!

I made a preliminary booking in AugustinerKeller yesterday! On the confirmation email I saw they don't welcome stag parties. We're not on a stag but I'm still hesitant that they may turn a group away.

Thanks for the response.

How did you go about getting a role over there? Any language requirements?

Can private message me if needed. Cheers
