    Hi Guys,

    Just asking this on behalf of my girlfriend, what would be the easiest type of regional work in oz? (e.g traffic management v picking fruit).
    I know some of it can be quite physical so she is trying to avoid it :)
    If anyone has done the regional work please let me know.

    Thanks

    Traffic control is far less physical than fruit picking.
    The pay is prob better too.

    On the other hand, anyone can get hired for fruit picking. No experience needed.
    Traffic control requires you to have the white card, plus a TC ticket. Easy courses to pass.
    But getting a job in a regional area without experience may prove difficult. If somebody with exp is availible, they be choosen over your GF everytime.

    Are you going with her?

    If she's willing to do it on her own, there are tonnes of dairy farms who look for girls to do 4 or 5 hours a day looking after the calves. It's pretty easy work and she will have most of her days free. Get her to put an ad on Gumtree or look at the ads herself. It'll be coming into calving season shortly so work should pick up.

    People who insist on going together or in groups generally only get fruitpicking.

    But I had a friend who got his 2nd WHV erecting scaffolds and rigs out west.
    A bit unfair that other erections operations don't count. As its easy work for the females.

    ;)
