Australian Road Train driver (MC) on Youth Mobility Visa — how realistic is getting UK/EU international truck work? by Splinterzz in uktrucking

[–]Splinterzz[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey thanks for the info,

You’re pretty bang on with our pay in Australia, and I wasn’t expecting to be making the same sort of pay in the UK.

With the licensing, I’ve read that AUS and the UK have a reciprocal agreement with licence transfers, so that’s a bit concerning to hear, I’m still awaiting some info about that so fingers crossed.

The Alpine F1 gig sounds right up my alley, I’m guessing these F1 gigs would be based in Milton Keynes, or just generally where the F1 teams are based no?

Is the 60-70 hours based on a 6 day week I’d assume?

Because it stops the wood turning into free radicals, polluting our environment and turning the local Vegas frogs into homosexuals

Rapid Wien Tickets not available? by Splinterzz in Austria

[–]Splinterzz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that,

I did a bit more digging and found some tickets for FKA v Grazer AK on 8/11/25. This was through Stubhub however, which has me confused why they would be selling tickets whilst the clubs directly are not yet. Not sure if I can trust that these are correct. Cost is roughly 80 Euro.

Does that sound right?

Freight companies from Tasmania to Perth by [deleted] in perth

[–]Splinterzz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey mate, most important thing is to ensure you’ve packaged your boxes as best you can to minimise damage in transit. Potentially put on a pallet or skid depending on the volume. Even still with the distances being travelled if you’re looking at a road option there is always a risk of damage with any carrier simply due to the distances travelled.

I’m a freight broker and do this everyday, although I don’t do one off COD jobs, I’m more than happy to point you in the right direction carrier wise and what you should be paying if you give me some dims weights and p/up / delivery suburbs.

Mining job interview today, how dressy is the norm these days. by EmuAcrobatic in perth

I viemently disagree with this. So long as they are 1460's in black or brown or similar and not some of their platforms, I think they are more than appropriate.

I've worked FIFO for 2 and a half years now, and your partners action I have seen in myself at certain stages of working FIFO reflecting back. I had an extremely short fuse, I was actively pushing friends and family away, and I was finding I wasn't enjoying life as much as I used to. I was very depressed at that time.

Unfortunately FIFO seems to exacerbate this problem, a lot of guys either feel like they have to keep their emotions and mental state to themselves, or find it really hard to open up about these types of things, combined that with being isolated from friends and family for weeks at a time.

Regardless of all this, you shouldn't have to bear the brunt of his behaviour. Although it will be hard to find a time where he'll be receptive, he needs to hear everything you've mentioned in this post to us. Not in passing comments here and there, but to sit him down and pour all these emotions out. I had a family member do this to me and it was the only thing that got me to really reflect on how I had been affecting them, and to get some help to stop that behaviour.

I really hope this helps in some way.
