No income, money troubles. Time for a working road trip.

[doko]

Its late don't mind the spelling.

Anyone out there also finding Aucklands job market bad? I plan on going on a road trip with nothing but a huge stack of CVs for temp or woofing work ( Like apple picking or something )

Living out of a tent ( camp ground? ) for a few months then leaving to find more work. I will be saving money the hole time to send back to my girl friend.


Anyone else wanna come? All you need is a stack of CVs, Fuel money and a will of steal for the hard times.


I think this trip will define me as a man. Fuck it New Zealands boring lets try something new!

Wow you are brave, and you sound quite desperate. I hope all goes well for you.

When are you planning to commence?

As soon as I can. Its my only option I was screwed by someone and left a huge bill for something they said they would cover... long story.

So I need to pay back a lot of money to my friends who help me out. I can't make my friends suffer because I my issue so i have to go seeking work.

I know a cafe where I am %90 sure of a job in nelson. I know the owner.

I would really like to go with someone else. I have a net book and two vodems so there will be Internet access.

We can stay at some friends houses on the way to. Also will by nice tent and solar chargers and 12V adapter.

Most of the time will be spent working and having very cheap chip in type camp ground partys with anyone who comes.

Think about this... If you are looking for work or bord of a crap job in Auckland you should come for adventure and a opportunity to save some money!

It will be like the good old days. BOOOOORN TO ME WIIIIIIIILD.

So as a man, you're sending money back to your girlfriend? Why doesn't she get off her ass and get a job?

I suppose people come from overseas to do the same things ... sounds like it could be a load of fun... all the best

She fucking works 7 days a week 12 hours a day.

We need more money because of a large amount of debit someone left us.

I lesson in life which I don't and couldn't follow myself

Have you noticed how the seriously rich in NZ who have run shonky organisations that survived whilst the "good times rolled" have retained their own wealth by leaving many ordinary NZ'ers out of pocket when their empires collapsed, and how our beloved Government has been blessed with a couple of serious disasters to keep the minions minds on other things. The only man they pursue seems to be the one that has given all his own wealth back to try and stop his companies demise and had a reputation for understanding hardworking NZer's and helping them out when the big banks wouldn't.

Ok!

So far I have lots of places offering Woofing. I will need to get fuel money out of them as well or go on the dole while I woof.

Once I reach a town I like I will look for work and a house. Move my girl friend down.


Auckland goodbye forever. BTW I am probably leaving in the next week or so.

I will be sure to post updates.

UPDATE: Went to WINZ as much as I hate wasting tax payers money I will be needing a safety net till I find work down there.

Leaving after x-mas.
