    Extra income needed

    Any ideas/jobs appreciated.

    I currently work a 9-5 job that earns alright money, but i need more. To pay for my passion in motorcycling while i'm still in NZ and also eventually to fund my dream of becoming a pilot. But first of all i need to clear debts, about $2.5k worth.

    As it stands i'm living paycheck to paycheck and will be budgeting in the next fortnight to extract some savings from my current income as it stands. I will also be seeking extra part time employment to help get some more income in the near future.

    For now I am looking for any odd jobs that you are willing to pay someone else to do... i have done gardening for Mystery as well as digging clay for littleman and whitebelt, and will soon be valeting fireflights 'fleet' of cars. Basically i'm just looking for any means to make some extra cash to pay of credit cards, overdraughts etcs.

    I percieve myself as being trustworthy and reliable as well as on time and a hard worker - but i'll let you judge that based on any work I may end up doing for you.

    If you have any jobs to offer please get in touch, Warkworth - Bombay area only thanks!

    Trying to live save off a avg 9-5 paypacket in NZ is fookin near impossible.
    Good on you for thinking outside the square. Years ago I used to hire a waterblaster, and clean down roofs/driveways/commercial buildings prior to painting etc. Price in hirage,fuel,and travel time + operating labour, and it adds up to a decent earn. OK, getting wet in winter sucks. But its summer now, and you can market moss removal as preventative maintenance.
    Get in touch with your local commercial painters. I made as much money doing this 20hrs a week (weekends), as I did doing 45hrs as a young mechanic.

    Go out to the North Shore Aeroclub and ask if they have anything going - weekend duties on the desk or washing planes or mowing the lawns or something like that. Great way of getting into the scene. Even go for an occasional flight as weight for a type rating.

    Have a chat to Murray Pope - he's an old school A-Cat that does part time and weekends.

    I am abot to start work on my new house and we are going to need a bit of help with our huge retaining wall. Not sure exactly when as I am waiting on our Building Consent to be released, but will touch base when I know more.

    That, or put on that little pink skirt Gremlin loves and go give him one of those dances that he loves so much.

    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.
