Nursing in Australia...

Aussienurse2 · Dec 31, 2002

Oh, come on, you love paying out all that extra cash to get a decent doctor don't you? Got to keep them all in business and Volvos don't we?! Seriously nursing here is great and there are packages available if youre willing to work inland. A friend of mine got one in Weipa, came with a house and electricity and a nice bonus for staying out there for a year. I've heard that Longreach may be offering the same kinds of deals too.

Living in Sydney is great! I have another friend still living there on an E.N.s wage, nice house in Northmeade, huge insurance bill each year and she's paying $250 a week but, well it's all about lifstyle aint it?

Come and have a drink with Aussie,

Come and have a drink with Auss.

We'll drink in moderation,

And we'll never, ever, ever get rollin' drunk.

We'll drink at the Town and Country,

Where the atmosphere is great!

Come and have a drink with Aussie,

Cause Aussie's your mate!

Sorry Aussienurse, but WEIPA??? You'd want a frickin' nice bonus for spending a year in Weipa!!! To all of you who don't know, look at a map of Australia. See the pointy bit up the top right hand side? That's Cape York. Now go onto the western coast of Cape York, about halfway down - THAT'S WEIPA!! Have a look & see just how far it is from ANYWHERE - let alone civilisation. We're talking 000's of km here.

Can ya tell I'm a city girl at heart??
