Anyone Looking for a Job?

vigilante000 · 04-10-2006, 10:45 AM

If anyone is looking for work we have a position available at AutoBarn Villawood.

We are looking for someone between 17-21 ideally with some parts interpretation skills intiative and is ok with working some weekends.
Must be able to get along with staff as we arent just a working team we do socialize often after hours and enjoy our V8s and tough cars as much as many of you. We have a fairly relaxed atmosphere but also like to get the job done to the best of our ability.

If you think you might suit this position then please come and introduce yourself and leave resume with us.

Cheers
ViGiLaNtE351 - Stuart or Marc

Wow, if I was in Sydney, I'd snap this up. I'd love to work at Autobarn.

vigilante000 · 04-10-2006, 12:24 PM

Yeah living in Sydney would be a bonus...could take a while to get here and back again from where you are.

Cheers

easlier said than done mate thou i have consider a few time

sam12h · 04-10-2006, 02:17 PM

G'day ViGiLaNtE351. How strict is the 17 - 21 age requirement? & How close to Villawood does the successful applicant need to live?

I'm looking for a job in Automotive retail but I'm 28 & I live in Faulconbridge. ARB St Peters rang recently to say they liked my application but I live too far away for their liking.

I'll come down & apply tomorrow if the above two points are flexible.

Cheers. Sam.

vigilante000 · 04-10-2006, 02:21 PM

The distance is up to you whether you can make it on time each day or not. But the age we could stretch it to 23 but not 28 sorry mate.

Thanks heaps for the question

Cheers

isn't that some form of discrimination?

EBFalcs · 04-10-2006, 08:01 PM

what happens when someone who gets the job turns 28

**Sorted** · 04-10-2006, 08:07 PM

Who cares - he has offered some one a job as long as they fit in the requirements he has stated

Lets not flame him......................

not flaming, just asking is all.....

as far as i'm concerned, saying "has to be between 17 and 21" is basically the the same as saying "and you have to be white" or "no females"...

maybe they just want to pay shiit wages ;)

which maccas you are working and when i could get some freebie of you

sam12h · 04-10-2006, 09:12 PM

Hey, ease up fellas. I asked a plain question & the answer was no. Why can't you just leave it at that.

A job was offered on here & every job has criteria. Now I won't be surprised of no one offers a job to us on here again after that effort.

I'm sure it'd be better than most places. I would have rather worked @ Autobarn than Target like I did when I was younger.

im in epping- show yr e-series sticker and you can get whatever you want.
joking im not even allowed to take stuff. i do anyway but the point is if i got caught thats it 4 me. although i could say u r my dad and i could give you a discount. lol. im worken tomoro- 6 till 9

vigilante000 · 04-10-2006, 11:26 PM

Yes the position is aimed at Junior-ish ages as we have got 3 seniors. You have to draw the line somewhere. Like the other guy said, he asked the question, I gave an answer, and yes its a job, and a pretty good one as you see lots and lots of guys with great cars, you learn heaps, get the low-down on all the HOT spots etc. And yes females can and DO apply. The reason it is offered is not because of low wages, its to fill the position of "Junior" like all places have. For people to learn and get experience in whatever field they choose. Now with some of your attitudes out there, can you see why jobs go overseas????? STOP BEING LAZY...LOL..Support your country, work in it! Its not always shiit work!

now if that was an offical offer i think this club will be very happy with that much people carrying the sticker around just to get discount price

big deal, if they want a certain type of person thats fine by me, and it should be up to them, i mean i wouldnt want petite chicks to apply for a labourers positions and **** they couldnt handle....may as well let them know befor hand rather then let them apply only to feed them some bullshit story of how there not quailified or somethin.....everyone is to quik to jump on the discrimination blame these days....why cant we put more effort into fixin the work place reforn agreement, man that thing really blows(for black for white for male or for female).....J.Howard really blows...
an thats my 2 cents.......

BTW nice job if i was closer i would apply if it payed alright....
im on 22$ph ATM with 9h days 5 days a weeks(varies for call out)

Jet-Star · 05-10-2006, 07:29 PM

Working at autobarn is better than any other job i've had, only down side is the pay...Or lack of I should say.

I wish i had the opp at that age like you have given these guys.

At this stage people should be happy to even have a job.

All youngsters want theese day is money and a cushie office job but are not willing to work hard and learn to get to the top.

Mate i wish i fit your description and lived there, i would be at work two hours early every day like i am at my current job, and you would be begging me at the end of the day to go home and rest, and i would do it the over time without pay as i do now.

Another old saying has to do with paying peanuts and getting monkeys.

Could be that people on here who are local have jobs. Or better paying ones. Im just saying.

Awww here we go again, another know it all grandpa thats done everything, and of course it was 50x harder 'back in your day'. Of course people would prefer a good paying job, what kind of a statement is that??

If you're going to say you don't go to work for the money, I am going to call you a blatant liar. Simple as that.

Exactly right.
