    You might get you answer by posting Creativeireland.com. Check out the 'Graphic Design / Print Design' forum.

    What is your background?

    For what it's worth, over here in Canada, pressmen usually work 12's. I know I do. Two on, two off, two on, three off.. It's pretty rad working 6 months out of the year and still making full time coinage ;) It's what's funding my upcoming trip to Ireland on a year-long working holiday visa (though to hear you lot tell it, the work situation there is pretty grim, so it might be more of a holiday).
    I'm a welder by trade, and I'm trying to find companies that employ welders in/around Dublin or Meath. So far, it's a slog. I have until July when I arrive though, so hopefully more info turns up.

    Good luck in your search!
