    Another Job Vacancy in Motorcycling Heaven

    If you love the South Island's roads and scenery.

    If you enjoy really hot summers and brisk refreshing winters.

    And if you are a motivated person who enjoys being able to ride on any day of the week and not just weekends, then this may be the job for you.

    K14 snapped up our last vacancy, and now we have another one. It will be advertised in the South Island papers this weekend, and for the North Islanders who may be interested PM me for more info.

    This is the previous ad: http://archive.odt.co.nz/Repository/...Locale=english

    Dispatch Trader.....So what exactly does one of them do?

    "If you can't laugh at yourself, you're just not paying attention!"
    "There is no limit to dumb."

    "Resolve to live with all your might while you do live, and as you shall wish you had done ten thousand years hence."

    The Dispatch side of the job is to generate electricity as efficiently as possible while controlling the lakes and rivers of our hydro system. The Trading side of the job is to trade the electricity on New Zealand's wholesale electricty market in competition with the other four major generators in order to get the most value from the energy.

    Its like playing a big computer game 24 hrs a day.

    Wouldnt be too bad so long as K14 was always on the other shift.
    Also seems to skip over the bit about how cold it is down there.

    Add is still fine defines the job and location etc and what you would need to fill an application. And as Jantar said its an old add, so one would disregard the dates.
