    I stopped at every farm I saw equipment in asking if they were hiring. 1 guy hired me because I had no experience running heavy equipment. He said it was a plus because I didn't have any bad habits he would have to break. Worked running every piece of machinery for over 20 years because I took a chance. Great video. It works

      I live in Bulgaria. I have a friend that has a restaurant and he doesn't hire experienced waiters because
      1) Depending on their morals they can steal (and know the tricks)
      2) They have bad habits that need breaking
      3) They can leave any time
      I am just sayin that there are businesses that prefer people with a good attitude and are willing to teach them the skills.

    That statement got me. If you want here at 6 I'll be there at 5:30. This is the way I've been my entire life. My first job was welding shop gopher Dad helped me get that job. The attitude of showing up early leaving late and being available for anything, to a point, has served me well. I've always been able to get a job it might not be what I wanted but I've never been out of a job. Thank you Sir this is showing people if you apply yourself you'll never go hungry.

    Construction is a good career, most young blokes are gonna love it. Done it for 30 years now, work outside, with your hands. See what you made at the end of every day, how its something useful, like a house for a family to live in. And best of all, the mates you make and work with, its a great environment.

    I know where i am in Adelaide roadworks crews always have jobs going, its hard to find people that fit in willing to work that hard and get up for early starts etc. The type of guys that the industry attracts will give respect to someone willing to approach and ask for a job like this. If its your first job , your lacking tickets licenses etc and your on job seeker let the boss know the gov will give wage subsidies and the network provider will pay for any training needed like Truck licenses etc too

    Quality video m8. I know so many people in trades who keep saying they just can’t get good young workers anymore. I keep hearing the same thing; lazy teenagers who can’t show up on time. Always on their phone. Always bitching and making excuses. We could have a massive hole in the workforce in a few years if we’re not careful.

    In the states, people get a complex about it. They want paid top dollar for jobs that require almost no skill at all. People think patience is a skill. They want paid $20/hr for simply not reaching across the counter and hitting a customer, never mind the fact that they can't get your order right and have a terrible attitude, which is also your fault. The worst part is you can't tell them anything either, cause they already have all the answers.
