Off memory someone else on here was looking for something like this , cant remember who but if you read this give it a shot .
Edit: zeocen was the one .

Hey Jeaves, yeah it definitely was me! Thanks for the thoughts.
I also saw this job but I haven't got any previous mechanical experience or a mito course so I was looking for a foot in the door in the way of handling parts/warehouse area etc.. I didn't think they would take someone with my lack of qualifications

Seems the jobs are slow at the moment but I'm not giving up! Gotta just keep on findin' and tryin' I guess!

/edit: Woops, sorry for the derailment!

You went to school right??....well you've got a half the requirements of an apprentice.....go and apply for it dude , if you worried about mechanical knowledge bring a six pack around to my house and i'll sort you out on the basics and you can see whats what when i strip the RG's engine down for piston replacement.

You have ample opportunity to take! Auckland's bike shops are impossible to get a booking with at the moment, so they must ALL be short of staff.

Learn how to work on bikes over 10 years old, then go to AMPS and help their workshop staff out..........

I'm guessing that you are referring to staffing???
If that is true, then it contradicts my research of the last two weeks, which says that you cannot get a bike into a workshop for at least fourteen days - IF that shop actually has the capability to work on a bike of your vintage.
