How you enjoying your work? I look forward to going to work and there is always plenty to learn. How do you find your host employer? Good, he comes to see me each Monday and asks how was the week end. I like that my boss has a keen interest in me and my work. How are your tradesmen? I am always working with different tradesman. This is good as they are all good tradesmen and they all do things differently. This makes the job so much more interesting, you can do one job a number of different ways, and I like the variety of new ways I am taught to make something. Do you play Sports? Like Surfing on the week ends. Where do you see yourself in 8 years? I am saving up to buy my own house. Where do you work? My work takes me all over the place. I am at college now for 3 weeks, but had I been at work I would be working in Melbourne for 2 weeks. This part of the work is great for me as it allows me to see more of our great country. Is it good doing an Apprenticeship? This is the best decision I have ever done and I recommend this to all young people and specially to Indigenous young people.
