You really need someone recommend you or you won't able to get in. I know few ppl had try but didn't make it because its all "buddies" there.

well i know someone who used to be a stripper at the gentlemen's club n she left that to work as a sales rep for chanel (used to work for them at my lst job) anyway, and then she went to northern QLD to work in the mines cos she gets paid a lot more.. so if SHE can get into it by just applying, im sure u can get in a lot easier lol

Well I'm starting my diploma in OH&S next month, then will tack on accident investigation and a Cert IV in Workplace Training and Assessing (now called TAA) and I can go work in the mines as a safety officer and earn the big 'uns too :D
