Its odd that a person with a trade can only get $15-20 an hr and an assembly worker at Ford can get $22 an hr with a pay rise every year.

I'll be another one looking for a apprenticeship in the new year, in the auto electrical trade as my temporary job has now expired. Thing that ****es me off is that the NZ government says they are screaming out for trades people but no bastard wants to take someone on as an apprentice. A friend in the same trade got a job in Aus which I might have to do.
At my old job the fully qualified auto sparky got $22/hr and probably booked out half the amount of work the apprentice on $11.75/hr did. Boss was a tight *** and the fully qualified guy was just really a grumpy old man sick of working. |
