I only know a little bit of programming
but Im good at design
wanna still hire me? If you buy me a pet koala I will work for free.

Make more money freelancing and contracting out programming. I would put my hand up and move to Melb if the money was right, but I never is. :)

Mabye it's something about being just a Keyboard monkey and moving down the food chain. haha.

Good luck with the search. lot of talented webmasters here in OZ.

I use to do the same thing till I set up shop ... some people perfer the security of full time.

Yeah know what you mean. One of my good mates knows this industry inside out and could program his way out of Jail cell with a calculator, yet he is usually employed :)

Suppose I just like being able to nurse a hangover occasionally past 9am.

Cheers!

Well that's one of teh great things about our environment ... (no not irresponsible drinking though that happens too) ... we have some people who perfer early morning starts and some who perfer late starts ... we have room for 'em all here :)

I can do all those things except the hahahahahahahahahaha part, dang. :glugglug

this is pretty much an exclusive job for aussies, isnt it extremely hard for outsiders to move to australia?

well if your in Melb, AU gimme a bell and we can talk.

It's not nearly as hard as geting a green card ... we've actually helped 3 people come down-under from the USA and Canada ... sure it's parerwork and all but so long as you don't have some horrible disease it's easy for someone in the IT industry.

bump ...

It always amazes me how many aussies there are in this business..

Maybe its the US$ thing but yeah theres heaps about and not that many post on BBS, If I ever see a good free lance marketer job going It might spark my interest.

Bake feel free to get in touch I'll put you onto my business partner who might have some work for you (2003 is a big marketing / pr year for us).

fosters

Yeah by the way can you Americans do something about your stockmarket? Our Aussie dollar is getting too strong against the Greenback... I want juicy conversion rates dammit!

Fosters is the crap we send overseas cos noone here likes it. Fucking watered down piss!

hahaha so true, no one here drinks Fosters, we just pass it off to those less fortunate who actually like the taste of it :)

VB is my beer of choice.

pH34R d4 b34R!

AMEN to that. I lost a couple of hundred from the damn exchange rate. Don't worry ... little Howard is doing a great job at fucking our country up, so we will be rich again! :thumbsup

Cheers

You obviously don't buy content..:winkwink:

ditto ... bring back the bannana republic :thumbsup

Too true man.
Last Feb the Pacific Peso was 48 1/2 cents US.
Hosting was way up but the the sales were very sweet.

I'm moving down to melbourne in july...nice to see that there are some smutpeddlers down in victoria, though everyone was in brisbane...

Hey how much does it cost you other Aussies to deposit a cheque and which bank do you use?

Heritage Building Society just upped its fee from $7.50 to $10.00 a cheque.

I get fairly ripped at ANZ - $30 but you can put 4 cheques for that price.

There's a few of us down here but definetly not as many as up north ... bell me sometime (ICQ 2979146) and we can catch up over a drink.

Bank of Melb - $10 for up to 4 cheques negotiated in the same currency (immediate conversion and clearance), but they can be anal about anything larger than chicken feed. I'm a regular there so I don't have (m)any problems now. I usually wait and deposit 4 at a time so effectively they cost $2.50 each.

If you're outside of Victoria, BoM are owned by Westpac, they may offer the same deal.

Otherwise it's $35 for collection, up to 4 cheques and around 6 weeks clearance.

CBA were doing o/s cheques for $7 last time I banked there, they'll negotiate anything up to $5000 and will place a 28 day hold on the funds. I only used CBA until BoM stopped being anal. :winkwink:

Just came from the CBA, they have changed to $10 per cheque :feels-hot . I've found CBA best for wires though....

i got a USD account with ANZ.. just lose heaps of money holding US peso :(

:winkwink:

I love taking money from the seppo's.

Hehehehehehehehehehe

... me loves VB !!!

Bitch, Cascade and Boag's are better!

7 bucks with commonwealth hmm only matter of time before they up that price too i guess

I personally find Paypal the easiest solution when getting paid in Australia by US companies...

The best value ive found in brisbane is the CBA at Ashgrove used to be 7 but is now 10 but the only charge u for the first cheque..... so cash 10 or so cheques at a time....

I'm amazed you guys put up with that shit!

Costs me $5 with suncorp/metway and sometimes the funds are available within a few days! :thumbsup

What do you do with those small cheques you get from sponsors you trialed and didn't continue with? I got a $35 cheque the other day and if I had to pay $10 or so to bank It I would have been PISSED!

It went up to $10 a cheque a couple of weeks ago at CBA, the only reason I stick with them is that they clear my cheques straight away

For the last three years i get a cheque everymonth from a mainstream sponser $3.54, they just go in the bin.

I bank the small cheques in a credit union....7 weeks to clear, but no fees involved.

I checked the other day and I had $20k in there....soon adds up!

hey synapse your on tv :)

any other aussies see that channel 10

Was that the sex survery thing ?

Rob

Awesome! cause grief for said sponsor's accountants! Nice work. :thumbsup

Yeah I know a lot of local webmasters who never buy their content.
