Hi all,
Am contemplating a move from the UK to the states or Australia and was wondering how the wages stack up versus the cost of living in the two countries?
I got off the tools 2 years ago in the Uk and am now working as a Crane/forklift inspector as the money in the UK was terrible unless you were doing crazey overtime shifts, So I am really looking to find out if they are better paid for their skills over in those areas of the world?
Lets face it , we have to be a sparky,a mechanic and a welder fabricator and also good at magic tricks " can you fix it as we are in a hurry" or..." we have no money in the budget , cant you fix it without those parts??"
so...feel free to post your thoughts,
thanks,
B.
