Dillz Three pedals are better then two.. Donating Members 15,637 Member For: 18y 7d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 26/01/09 05:12 AM Share Posted 26/01/09 05:12 AM I'm sure theres alot of tradies on here so I thought I'd ask.A mate of mine who is/was a chef is fed up with the hours and stress of a kitchen and is looking to get into a trade, be it a sparky, plumber, builder or whatever but he's not sure which one would be best.Any feedback/advice would be great to pass on, his only concern is he's convinced the pays pretty sh*t but I don't think that's true.Cheers Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/53890-mates-looking-to-get-into-a-trade/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guests Posted 26/01/09 05:19 AM Share Posted 26/01/09 05:19 AM First of all re pay, how old is he??Adult apprentices are paid quite well when compared to 15y/o first years. If he can wangle one of those, he'll also only have to complete 3 years rather than 4...I'd be looking at eith electrician or plumber as they are high paying, coupled with the fact that we are always going to need a place to as well as a light in the toilet when we do it Seriously though, sparky or plumber is where it's at as far as trades are concerned imo Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/53890-mates-looking-to-get-into-a-trade/#findComment-810613 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guests Posted 26/01/09 05:25 AM Share Posted 26/01/09 05:25 AM He's at the right age to start an adult app Tell him to get in contact with your state's app board & get the info required. Once your names down you don't have to do much...
