>> FORESTRY WORKER 1: You get paid while you’re being trained. I just enjoy the variety of
work, like I can go from working in the shop to being outside. It keeps you interested.
>> FORESTRY WORKER 2: I quite like the fact that I can throw on some old clothes in the
morning and just kind of get to it!
>> FORESTRY WORKER 3: I enjoy the days off. The shift work is great so four on, four off.
You meet a great bunch of people here and just a great environment to work in, aye.
>> FORESTRY WORKER 4: The thing I like most about the bush is just being outside, good
blokes to work with, have a laugh and that. It’s not like in the office or anything.
>> FORESTRY WORKER 5: Oh it’s a great industry. You know your hours, you know your income,
what you’re getting each week. And it’s outdoors. You can’t get many jobs that you’re
outdoors for eight or nine hours a day.
>> FORESTRY WORKER 6: The big thing is the challenging variety of work.
>> FORESTRY WORKER 7: It’s an industry that’s not just exclusive to men.
>> FORESTRY WORKER 8: There’s just as much potential for females as there is for males
I think in the industry.
>> FORESTRY WORKER 9: The people here are just really, really friendly and they just
treat me as if I’m one of the guys. It’s brilliant, just really fun.
