    Yes very true I suppose. Only another 3-6 months to go depending on my tafe though.
    Used to be good till we got the new apprentice, then he went with my old tradie, and I got stuck with the fella I'm working with now.

    Still gotta suck it up and deal with it, that's life I guess.

    Cheers.

    Hehehehe...

    I cheated, I did my apprenticeship in the military.
    Every aspiring tradie was treated like shit for the first few years, apprentice or not.
    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

    Yep. It's not the apprentice crap that bothers me, rather the fact that despite having more experience than the fella I'm working with (he did his trade in an unrelated area, has only been with us 2 years, useless as tips on a bull) won't listen to a word I say, cause he constantly is trying to tell every customer he is the only one worth listening to.

    But as I said, life goes on.

    The trick is to treat any apprentices you get, with a bit of dignity.
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    If you can see that and move on you'll do well in life. It's hard to do somedays. I'm struggling with a lot of things at work at the moment.

    I'm reading your two posts now and reminding myself to act in the same way.
    Thanks, Cameron

    I feel your pain.
    I made a mistake and bought a few things from them recently. Other than Telstra they would have to be the most incompetent bunch of morrons I have ever dealt with.

    Do a search on complaints about 4wd supercenter.... they are the worst piece of crap of a business. .. many mistakes in delivery is one of the biggest complaints then postage errors next and they will say it is the courier companies to blame.. I will never buy from them.
