there is plenty of work at the minute, some overtime available. It just depends who you work for. I'm a carpenter also & i get $25 an hour which is the going rate. You may get a few dollars a more per hour but only after being here a while. Expect to work hard but not like a slave if you know what i mean. Your offer isn't with Farrell by any chance?

Hey Mitchell,

you are seeking the same advice as me..........

Added you to contacts so I could have a chat to you about your job offer and just general stuff about your question but think you maybe need to accept before i can PM you.

You can only send PM's after making 5 posts, the same applies to the other person.
