So through that labour hire firm I signed up with, I've got the (maybe) job of shovelling grain and wheat into bunkers for about 10 hours a day. AU$18 an hour for the first 8 hours of the day and AU$24 for every hour after that. According to my imprecise calculations I could be making roughly an Aussie grand a week if I knuckle down and don't get killed off by the labour intensive work. All the "maybe"s are around because I've got to pass a medical, which hopefully I've passed as long as they don't find illegal drugs in my urine. Which I'm hoping they don't because to be honest it would make my life very confusing, mainly because I wouldn't know where they came from.
So yeah, my medical should have gone ok, godwilling.
Turns out I'm kind of colour blind though, something silly to do with lots of reds and greens being in the same place making 5's look like 2's. I'm not entirely sure how this impacts my everyday life, although apparently it doesn't, so there we go.
ALSO.
If I do get this job and stick with it for three months, that will qualify me for an extra year on my visa. Who knows, depending on how this goes I could stay for another year, if Cardiff will let me defer again.
Crazy days!

It's like that Stephen King story about the guy whose wife got killed by the other guy and so he got a job digging holes for like six months and then set up the trap so that the guy who killed his wife ended up crashing his Cadillac into a giant hole in the desert. And then he buried him alive.
